Official 2GGT: ZeRo Saga discussion thread - Top 48

[SaltyKracka]

Void takes it 3-2 over MKLeo in a last stock, last hit situation; thoroughly showing Mr. R just how much he has to learn.

And ZeRo surgically 3-0s Locus. Not as though anybody expected anything different.

Still, good **** Locus.

 

[Wintermelon43]

Goddangit I blinked and missed the entire set

 

[|RK|]

ZeRo TRASHED Locus, good lord. And he started doing things I've never seen him do before. He wasn't even playing as slowly as he did against Venom - it was full pressure, and insane movement. Like losing to Ally still gave him EXP and he unlocked new skills. Yeesh!

 

[SaltyKracka]

Komo eliminates Abadango 3-2.

 

[TDK]

Kameme why'd you switch off of Yoshi

 

[SaltyKracka]

Anti takes it 3-2 over Kame with a timeout after Kame's Game 4 Yoshi counterpick.

 

[TDK]

Dabuz made a great losers run but it starts and ends with a Meta Knight

 

[Aaron1997]

TDK Because if he didn't Anti will go Cloud and Yoshi/Cloud is awful, like 70/30 bad

 

[Zelder]

Lol Leo's character trio is like scientifically designed to counter Dabuz's two mains as hard as possible. He needs to level up his Bayo because it doesn't seem like he has an answer to a strong Cloud in bracket.

 

[TDK]

I feel like even if Dabuz ties it up here Leo'll just pull out MK

2-1 Leo currently.

EDIT: 3-1 Leo but Dabuz played the last two games really well.

 

[ShadowGuy1]

Poor Dabuz Apparently before this he was saying he couldn't beat Leo and he was wondering why he hasn't improved much despite him practicing a lot and then him losing to a MK and Leo. I really hope Dabuz does well at Genesis

 

[Funbot28]

Yeh Dabuz keeps saying that he has a secret Bayo that he has in the woodwork's. I feel he should really start pulling it out now for these Cloud MU's cause they are rlly brutal for him.

 

[Funbot28]

Double post but...

Zero (3) vs Komorikiri (1)

Komorikiri actually tried and pulled out the Bayo MU against Zero, but it wasn't enough to beat him.

 

[TDK]

Leo 3-0 ANTi
Larry 3-1 Ally

Yup, this is free for ZeRo now.

 

[Yonder]

Leo 3-0 ANTi
Larry 3-1 Ally

Yup, this is free for ZeRo now.

Until Zero falls to Nairo's Bowser, muahahaha.

 

[SaltyKracka]

Until Zero falls to Nairo's Bowser, muahahaha.

Aaaaaaaand Void poops all over Nairo's Bowser, proving once and for all why Bowser is not a high tier.

Void 3, Nairo's inferior Marth 1.

 

[TDK]

VoiD 3-1 Nairo

Lucina got a game, ZeRo plays Nairo now

 

[kaz99]

Well there goes Nairo's undefeated Bowser...

Anyways, I really want to see Void take the tourney

 

[Mr. Johan]

Aaaaaaaand Void poops all over Nairo's Bowser, proving once and for all why Bowser is not a high tier.
.

??? Nairo was one grab away at the end.

 

[|RK|]

I think that was a huge mistake to pull out Bowser against VoiD. Of all the people at this tourney - save for maybe ZeRo - VoiD would be the one to slap that Bowser around. Admittedly, it was close because... well, Bowser. But still.

 

[SaltyKracka]

??? Nairo was one grab away at the end.

Yes. One grab that he did not get, and that might not have comboed into a kill if he had gotten it.

 

[Davis-Lightheart]

Aaaaaaaand Void poops all over Nairo's Bowser, proving once and for all why Bowser is not a high tier.

Void 3, Nairo's inferior Marth 1.

Well that's the thing man, Void was basically at death percent himself at the end. Just because he tossed around Bowser isn't really a shock.

Yes. One grab that he did not get, and that might not have comboed into a kill if he had gotten it.

Just because he didn't get the grab doesn't really mean anything. He and Void were basically evenish by the end considering the qualities of the MU.

Hello, people.
About Nairo's Lucina.
Seeing it again, it confirmed my worries. I have been practicing Lucina endlessly these last few weeks, and I noticed something, I grew cynical. Of everything. Of my main, of her matchups and of this entire game.
I am looking at every match with a far more critical approach, and Nairo's Lucina has potential. But right now, he is carrying her on his fundamentals alone. He has no proper Lucina fundamentals.
He flubs throw conversions often, his spacing isn't as tight as it could be, he still could mix up his recovery better, and he needs to commit less. Admitelly, he commits far less to unnecessary stuff than other Marcina players, but his mistake is relying on FSmash too much. It worked once, but he uses it OOS too often. That wasn't a Lucina. That was Nairo, if you catch my drift.
I know Nairo reads Smashboards sometimes. If you read this: You have a potential to be to Lucina what MKLeo is to Marth if you polish up your Lucina. Something truly beautiful is ought to come out of it. You just need to polish it up.
You have gold in your hands right now. Heavily impolished gold, but it's still gold. Will you polish it up?

 

[PK Gaming]

Leo looking goddamn unstoppable

 

[YerTheBestAROUND]

Ally just could not land to save his life that last game. He just couldn't get into the bubble Leo was creating, which was pretty much the entire stage that was under the platforms. Good stuff Leo.

Hoping for a Canada Cup-esque run back of Leo vs VoiD. See if Leo can make the necessary adjustments, or at the very least VoiD is able to take grand finals. Let's go both of them!

 

[SaltyKracka]

lol, for all the Bowser hype Zero just takes it apart in two straight games, then loses a game to Nairo's pocket Ryu

@Emblem Lord where you at?

Ed: And that's Nairo out after four straight games of not using his main.

 

[MachoCheeze]

It's time for Duck Hunt to go.

 

[Davis-Lightheart]

lol, for all the Bowser hype Zero just takes it apart in two straight games, then loses a game to Nairo's pocket Ryu

@Emblem Lord where you at?

What "take apart"? Bowser fights always go fast.

He gets you = you get bodied.

You get him = He gets bodied.

Everytime Nairo got Zero to final stock and past 50% was basically danger zone for Zero. With Bowser, the fight really isn't over until you kill him.

 

[EternalFlare]

And that is why Ryu is not top 10 in the current meta. No Ryu is good against getting camped out hard. Either the character is just too limited and it will never happen or Ryus need to seriously step it up.

In other news, DuckHunt seriously needs to be banned. Even Halberd would be a much better pick if people are desperate for more stages. Duck Hunt invalidates most of the cast as they don't really have an answer to getting camped out that hard.

 

[DJBor]

...What did I miss?
And what's with all of the negativity?
Why the heck did Komorikiri throw away his chance at ZeRo?
Does MKLeo stand for Marth Killer Leo now?
Nairo's Bowser finally lost?
And he has a Pocket... RYU?

 

[SaltyKracka]

The fight isn't over until it's over.

Wow! Such a sudden and unexpected revelation has been delivered unto me! Surely this is the wisdom of the gods, stolen from their high thrones and brought here to be shared with us!

No, but seriously ZeRo ran rings around Nairo when he wasn't deciding to randomly approach him or try to cross him up with MF, and people really need to realize that the Shell Shock has limitations on percent range.

 

[Nidtendofreak]

Duck Hunt has no need to be banned.

Don't play a character that gets lamed out.

 

[T4ylor]

Larry choked so hard as DK game 2 vs Void. He forgot he was playing DK at the end.

As a Lucina player I agree(my other main is Roy), fsmash out of shield isn't something you do as Lucina.

 

[DJBor]

"Ban Duck Hunt", you say, as Larry and VoiD go at it.

 

[SaltyKracka]

Despite a terrible counterpick DK throwing away a lead, Larry takes it 3-2 over Void.

 

[YerTheBestAROUND]

THAT'S WHAT YOU DO WITH A BANANA AT THE LEDGE WITH MARTH

Let's go Leo!

 

[Davis-Lightheart]

Don't get smarmy with me. You know what I meant. How many fights have you seen where it just seems over after the first stock, the percent builds into the hundreds and it seems unrealistic for the underdog to actually K.O the opponent when they have to make back two stocks.

You don't get that with Bowser, Nairo had Zero at the right percent to end it in less moves than Zero needed. The fact Zero didn't two stock Nairo when it seemed likely Zero would is a testament to Nairo's survivability and utilizing Bowser. Seriously, just because Zero wasn't at 100% doesn't mean jack in the Bowser MU.

So what if he ran rings around Nairo? That's just what happens with Bowser. So what if he slapped him like a rag doll? That's just what happens. Nairo still got Zero at the probable death percent.

 

[SaltyKracka]

Cheese on rice, why do people keep letting MKleo go to Battlefield with Marth?

 

[PK Gaming]

ZeRo wasn't kidding when he said that MKLeo was the hardest opponent for him to fight, because goddamn

Dude plays the Diddy matchup like a pro
