The Game Theorists: Game Theory: How DEADLY Is Donkey Kong's Punch?

TL;DR

MatPat’s latest Game Theory, powered by Boot.Dev and rocking fresh Theorywear, goes full scientist on Donkey Kong’s signature haymaker—first in Smash, then in the new Donkey Kong Bananza. He crunches the numbers, pits DK’s punch against real-world materials and physics, and teases just how catastrophic that fist really is.

Expect a fun breakdown of damage stats, blow-by-blow comparisons, and all the nerdy details—plus shout-outs to writers Tom Robinson & Zaech Stew, editors Axellent, Koen Verhagen, Marc Schneider & Jerika, and sound guru Yosi Berman.
