This doesn’t make sense to me. I’m currently 3.338 mil with Ike but I never lose GSP by more than 2k if I take an L unless the opponent is way below me in GSP (like 30k or more). Why do some people only lose a fraction while others lose a large portion? Edit:3.341 mil now but I only go up about...

So after playing some matches and refreshing my lowest fighter is sheik and palutena both at 3,199,026, and my highest is Ike at 3,258,193. If we are to assume the 3.5% window for elite smash and assume (let’s round up) that 3.2 mil is the lowest bar to achieve elite smash atm then that means...

If you are saying there is a prodigy out there that can be the best player in the world if he just showed up to a tournament cause he would beat everyone I’m saying that’s very improbable. However if you are saying there is someone with the “potential” to become the best player in the world if...

On the topic of secret top players in elite smash, I would say no, at least not at the level of what a “pro” would be (beating a pgr player and placing well at a major). The online environment is a different meta, simply due to the inherent input latency that’s added to every match, and that...

K well that pretty much confirms the ceiling is right there. I highly doubt there is anyone past 2.49 mil. Now the question is what is the lowest point to enter elite, as we still don’t have an accurate number on where the theshold lies. My lowest is chrom at 2.43 mil.

Just hit 2.475 mil as Ike. havent seen anyone past 2.48 mil

My bad the numbers are swapped. It’s supposed to be 2.46 mil. Either way, finding a match has been damn near impossible I’m assuming cause it’s pretty close to the top. Keep in mind that they match make based on location and I ended up playing the same 2 people twice each time within a span of...

Hit 2.46with Ike checked it just now. Haven’t seen anyone higher than 2.43 mil and queue takes forever RN (multiple times been told that no elite smash partner was found and was matched with someone not in elite)

The best thing to do for the smash community as a whole is develop counterplay rather than look for bans. That's the short of it. But honestly i have been looking at this in a different light, after broadening my horizions and playing other fighting games (DBFZ, Melee, SFV, Tekken, and so on)...

This is beyond underrated. Great resource, for both seeding purposes, head to head, and tourney records. Just an overall great archive of important info.

Off topic, but there has been a lot of recent discussion recently (mainly Salem and top sheik mains) that sheik loses multiple mu's and is not a top tier. https://mobile.twitter.com/BlankSmash/status/920476098391134208?p=v I am quite curious as to what people here might think, and what Salems...

Idk nojinko has a really hard pool. Both Salem, stroder and xzax play characters that really beat Ike and then you have to deal with potential team kills in Ike Tyson and promealia. It's gonna be a tough pool all around (promealia can potentially upset Salem, if cosmos Salem at big house is...

For the same reason little mac loses the pac man mu: Can forces mac into the air. It covers Macs ledge options very well, he can get sniped offstage with can or clay pigeon, and duck hunt has the same win condition as everyone else does: Play defensive and camp. Expect for duck hint this is much...

Interesting things to Note: AZ's top 4 players Saiki:4sheik:, SS :4ness::4villager:, Stroder:4greninja:, and Luhtie:4zss:, as well as other strong representatives (ezreal:4pikachu:, wulfn:4fox:, Coco:4mario:,Skylar:4gaw:) will be in attendance. This can be a huge chance for AZ to showcase it's...

Luhtie has always been pretty consistent, making a wave here and there, grabbing a solid win, but never getting those huge breakout top 8 performances that we might want to see. His region AZ is actually pretty much all like that. SS beating captain Zack, stroder beating falln, Saiki beating...
