tl;dr POOL 1 IS HYPE AS **** AND I'M GIVING 2ND PLACE TO THE Z

 

[Sangoku]

This is very interesting, I might do it later. Gave a quick look at your pool 1 and I think you underestimate tacos.

 

[Shears]

January Madness?!

Contest:

Fill out a bracket for a pool and enter the bracket for $1.
A person may only enter one bracket per pool but is not required to enter a bracket for each pool.
Each round of a bracket has a weighted score and the person(s) with the best bracket after the pool is completed win the pot.
All bracket submissions must be done through this, or a similar thread if one is made for this contest, and money will be collected an hour before the start of pools.
Prizes can be collected on Saturday before the start of the top 8 finals.

Anyone interested in this idea?

 

[thegreginator]

I think that's an awesome idea. In the (likely) event that it's too much work for people to participate, though, I am willing to take side bets with anyone on various matchups.

 

[Gammelnorsk]

fireblaster will win the whole tournament

b link he comin for ur money

 

[Maliki]

Really cool idea shears

 

[Nintendude]

We're probably going to be making a slight adjustment due to feedback that pool 1 is noticeably harder than the other pools.

 

[Shears]

Really cool idea shears

Do I ever have not cool ideas?

 

[thegreginator]

We're probably going to be making a slight adjustment due to feedback that pool 1 is noticeably harder than the other pools.

Dammit. I just spent like an hour analyzing my bracket. Don't mess with Pool 4 yo.

 

[Olikus]

wow pool 1 is crazy compared to the rest.

 

[mixa]

Star King (jigglypuff) vs The Z (luigi), the GRUDGE MATCH

Start King (fox) vs Han Solo (fox), the “DO JAB WORKS ON SHIELD?” MATCH

 

[Cobrevolution]

put han solo in pool 4 so he and i can COMMENTATE ON POOL 1

 

[Nintendude]

We switched SK (pool 1) with vice (pool 4). This should solve some of the balance problems.

 

[O.o-RITH-o.O]

Pool 4 looks weak...
Pool 2 will be awesome to watch! (Mariguas vs Sheer!!!)
I don't think pool 1 is THAT unbalanced (after the sk - vice swap), there's a good chunk of overrated players there, doesn't seem WAY harder then Pool 2 at least...
Also... GOGO Banze! (once again getting Boom on the way =/ )

 

[Sedda]

I wish sk vs isai wouldve happened, but he had to be moved lol. I guess we'll get to see that after sk destroys everyone on his way

 

[The Star King]

wait never mind

 

[Shears]

Started filling out my January madness brackets and this is time consuming. How did you do it so fast cobr?

 

[clubbadubba]

1) HOLY DISRESPECT COBR I'll have to show you my moves

2) It seems KILLER really lucked out by drawing the ALL FALCON BRACKET lol. Ruoka, Mariguas, *** vwls, lots of others that won't be able to break out the falcon vs him but would if he was any other character. Expecting big things from killer. Making my brackets (might just do mine)


Also, Pool 1 is like really weirdly seeded after the vice sk switch.

Top 4 of winners will be
1. isai
2. han solo/vice
3. merihim/zenyore/ybombb
4. dexter

meanwhile 5 of tacos/stranded/revan/merihim/zenyore/ybombb will be in losers. Switching vice and sk straight up is weird, that 2nd quartile is now way to light compared to the rest of the pool

 

[asianaussie]

where the hell is justing wong, i wanted to see him beast through 64

getting my hopes up

 

[Shears]

My predictions:

1. Emmi
2. Shears
3. Isai
...
157. KeroKeroppi

 

[Sedda]

I believe in Kero. COME ON KERO

 

[SSBPete]

taking bets sensei beats pete

 

[ballin4life]

tacos and pete 13th in their pools?

you should feel bad (especially about tacos, "lol australia" might be a good enough reason for the latter. unless tacos is KB or something)

 

[Doomolish]

Wait, wasn't Captain Tavo already confirmed? What happenned?

 

[SSB64-Jel]

Can someone upload the Tio file for the pools so we can use Tio to do predictions.

 

[madrush21]

Pool 4 looks weak...
Pool 2 will be awesome to watch! (Mariguas vs Sheer!!!)

I'm really looking forward to a lot of matches from this pool. Hope they get a good amount from every pool on stream

where the hell is justing wong, i wanted to see him beast through 64

getting my hopes up

Looks like he got Ruoka'd lol. Maybe somebody should teach him how to play before Friday.

 

[Nintendude]

chain-ace and I agree with feedback that quadrant 1 of pool 1 is unbalanced relative to the rest of the pool and have decided to swap Revan with Vice (formerly where SK was). This will hopefully be the last change we make to the pools unless anyone else notices a glaring error.

If it's the last change, could you post the new pools?

[KoRoBeNiKi]

A lot of you guys haven't faced my kb play yet, i plan on taking games/sets off of many people.

i Have done some legit practice unlike my last kb event, be warned
...
...
jk ill prob get 7th in my pool regardless

 

[The Star King]

clubba over sensei.

Oh snap.

 

[Battlecow]

No respect for mariguas or Ruoka in this thread, lol. Honestly I do think killer can do it, but he should for surrrrrrre be the underdog

 

[The Star King]

Battlecow you've been underestimating Killer for years though.

Remember when I claimed Killer was like A tier and you were like "naw brah"? Yeah.

I'm not sure either way though. Ruoka placed high last time, but it's also Falcon... and not quite sure how good Mariguas is.

 

[prisonchild]

what's the hype with this merihim guy?

 

[meowmeowrainbowkitty]

STACKED
I'm rooting for IL (including firo in IL lol)

 

[Yobolight]

I'm not sure either way though. Ruoka placed high last time, but it's also Falcon... and not quite sure how good Mariguas is.

Those Japanese Falcons seem better at the Kirby MU than American Falcons from what I have seen.

 

[Maliki]

I didn't now what battlecow and starking meant when they were talking about quoting things from the past but now I can see what it is they do it often.

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

well look at their kirbyKirby competition, we have m2k....they have moyashi loll
