Oh ****, didn't know that. Anand, where you at 
So i think the important thing we learned this weekend was yes, everyone who said it after the last apex was 100% correct, Javi is top 3 in the world.

I said that he wouldn't perform well and like 6 people quoted me and said that he would be amazing.
Eat it.

How is 13th not performing well? in this generation of the smash scene, placing that high is a very difficult task.
Also, "performing well" is not determined by placing alone. He def played amazing as a player vs everyone I watched.

im not trying to be offensive to you here cuz i think you're super amazing, but...How is 13th not performing well? in this generation of the smash scene, placing that high is a very difficult task.

i think some people determine it by that he wasnt highest placing Fox and that even *you* outplaced him -.-

I worded that wrong. People were thinking/saying he'd get top 3 and he'd be the best Fox.How is 13th not performing well? in this generation of the smash scene, placing that high is a very difficult task.

Are you kidding? "Even you"? SW is super amazing, as you say. When it comes to top 5-17, a lot depends on bracket, so you have to consider that a bit more carefully. Javi beat Leffen, who has shown himself to be one of the best foxes, and lost to Axe, who hardly ever loses to Fox. I'm not a "Javi is a top 5 player" guy, but even a placing of 13th with his bracket is very impressive. And yes, I agree with SW that this generation of smash is incredibly tough. There are fewer and fewer mediocre players and the top players are all brilliant.

No don't get me wrong I agree with you on all fronts there, I think that outside top 3-4 most of it is bracket dependent. I'm just saying what a lot of people tend to think and jump to conclusions about after just seeing "Results".
Mkay, I think I understand what you're saying. Not many people I know were thinking Javi was going to hit top 5, though.
And I think that the kind of rationale that says, "well, Javi wasn't the top-placing Fox so he's not amazing" leaves out the possibility that SW really, really rose to the occasion and showed that he is himself a top Fox.

Is there anywhere I can see some games featuring either Bam or Vwins (singles preferably)?
I watched the stream most of the time this weekend, but I haven't seen anything from them.

Vwins played on the second stream. Maybe you can find him there?

Vwins played a really good set vs. Zhu on stream. Good luck

Anything that was on bifuteki's stream is lost until vides get uploaded, unless you want to pay to subscribe to his channel to get the archives.

all that theft reminds me of apex 2010. A lot of stuff got jacked, like wii cables, controllers, cubes, phones, etc.

Hey SW your sets that got streamed made it super clear you've been putting in the work lately. Props, dude.

Thoughts on Leffen? I think he could have gotten 9th or 7th if it wasnt for chokes

That's kinda like saying that it's ok for a lesser player to coach PP in a match because he is obviously not as good as PP so he can't be helping him in any way by suggesting things about the matches being played. In reality coaching is a very powerful tool. It isn't hard to watch a match and realize the mistakes that are made or how some things could be done to better the matchup... but when you are the person holding the controller these things may not appear as plainly to you as you may have other focuses during the match. And vice-versa the people who are watching, when the controller is in their hands won't be making all the other good decisions that PP is making the majority of the match.Lol at everyone telling Kevin how to play Marth
People offering constructive criticisms about the matches he lost because they want to see him win isn't a bad thing, and he is the one who can choose to think those things over or reject them... and knowing PP he will probably be the 1st one sitting down at the computer and picking these things apart, so I'm sure he is open to any suggestions people have and will give it an honest thought. Acting like a poorer player can't provide quality insights is like if I said: "lol at everyone telling Mango how to play Falco" when he pretty much threw away matches by approaching with dairs against a shielding marth at the edge, neutralizing what seemed like almost every time he got a stock lead.

Video thread? There are already a lot of videos up.

I think Leffen probably placed around where he should have. Hungrybox choked game 2 as much as Leffen did game 3, probably more actually.

I saw Bam get wrecked in the crew battle by Wes. It was Falco dittos on FD, so take it with a grain of salt >.>

yea i realize that. basically, i was just suggesting that if anyone thinks like that, theyre dumb lol. also, i think it generally has less to do with being "bracket dependent" and has to do more with just being well versed. cuz you cant say, "oh he got hax and axe in his bracket, thats why he didnt get 4th" (or close to it).
if u want an example of losing due to a ****ty bracket, look at me and last apex. i was on a roll but got stopped at 17th cuz i lost to pp and hbox lol.
there were also some really good players who missed bracket cuz their entire pool was just rly good people.
my pool was mad hard lol. not one damn scrub. everyone was solid as ****.

Ya I saw that live, and I was a bit sad, cause I know Bam can do much better than that. I haven't seen anything else from him at this tourney lol, so I figured that didn't count haha.

Got a hard bracket too. Facing Javi that early in losers is rough.Thoughts on Leffen? I think he could have gotten 9th or 7th if it wasnt for chokes
If he were a smidgen luckier against Hungrybox, he would've faced Armada whom, due to NTSC, he would've had a decent chance of beating. I think he's definitely a case of bracket making the places after top four fuzzy.

I dunno, I'd make that face if some person did that to me while I wasn't expecting it.

Lol sucks that Silent Wolf has placed pretty consistently for like...5 years and still doesn't get the credit he deserves.
Also this tournament got me pretty excited. Hopefully I'll find the time to pick up the game again before Genesis. I'd love to bring Samus back into the top 13 at least.

I crashed my car a few hours ago on the way home on the interstate and it's really ****ed up.
So basically I hope everyone else got home safely.
