Hey guys, this is Lockon here! Hope you enjoy the video and the stylistic differences in their Samus!!
These are the top 3 Samus players with the overall best results and performance in recent times. I'm aware Plup primarily focuses on Sheik now, but I really wanted to dish out this combo video while Plup's Samus is still somewhat relevant in 2015. Also, Duck and HugS have been pushing the limits of Samus as well with their recent performances during the past year.
Most footage is from 2014-2015 from majors/regionals and very few clips from locals and friendlies. I had a lot of footage that I wanted to include, but due to the time limit constraints of my song choices and video structure, I had to cut a lot of them out. So if you don't see a certain combo/highlight from them that wasn't in the video, I most likely had to cut it out. I didn't want to make it over 10 minutes and become a snoozefest. lol I tried my best to vary the content while considering the stages and opposing characters.
Quality is all over the place and kinda meh. I wish had more resources to provide a higher quality production (i.e. the Samus pictures I used lol), but I don't. I could've fine tuned some things especially the masking, but I've already spent quite a bit of time on this and I'm honestly done. haha Nonetheless, I really had a fun time making this video so I hope you guys like it!
Special thanks to the melee streams (VGBC, showdowngg, EMG, etc.) and community.
Shoutouts to all the other Samus mains! (To name a few from the top of my head; Darrell, Esam, ycz6, Corigames, Knut, ihavespaceballs)
Other information/questions:
Why "Perfect Prime"?
A play on words with "perfect crime" and incorporating Samus' iconic 3d Metroid game series "Metroid Prime", hence, "Perfect Prime". The name is intended to represent Samus at her "prime" in the current metagame. I also love alliteration. lol
