Who is most likely going to be in the world crew? Glutonny, Mr-R, Leon, Brood, Nietono, Rain, Kakera...
Me, Tyrant, and maybe Tearbear should be in the crew for sure.
I should ideally be used for one of the Olimars, but I'm confident I'd do well vs anyone except for Kakera.
Tyrant ***** Marth, is probably one of the best MK players in the Olimar match up, ***** Wario, and would do well vs Rain's Falco. If we're going to have only two MK players on the crew, I'd put him over Anti.
Terry would pretty much be the same as Tyrant, except he'd probably is better at the Snake match up. I think he'd probably be the best MK for the job for beating Ally's Snake, besides M2K and assuming Ally even goes Snake.
Who would we use Mike for besides Ally? If he's going to be used for only one person I wouldn't put him on the crew, we have a lot of players who can beat Ally.
Imo the crew should be
1)M2K
2)Me
3)Tyrant
4)Dabuz/Rich
5)Gnes
6)June/Trela
7)Vinnie
8)Tearbear/ADHD/Esam/Razer
tearbears style is also extremely gay and consistent for the most part.
Then only problem is ice climbers on the world crew, as experience serves tyrant has a losing record against top ice climbers (correct me if I'm wrong). Outside of ic's theres no character on the world crew that socal has had problems with so its probably fair to say tyrant won't have issues
The only character iirc ally has winning record vs esam with is ice climbers. I would put esam over terry simply because who the **** on the world has played pikachu except ally LOL.
I agree, we don't need mike to beat ally, I don't really see why it would be considered Mike shoe in. the only person eliglble for the US crew thats never beaten ally is anti.
I don't see snake being patiucalry useful in the US crew either, theres no diddys. I suppose I could see it for ice climbers though. Someone could just have vinnie or esam ditto ic's or send in lucario. But I suppose it really depends on the structure of the crew.
I would put it as
Lead off with ice climbers or metaknight- I think the only character world has that solidly cps them is maybe holy's rob? but thats an awfully big risk to take if US decided to just send in one of the top metaknights.
Starting with m2k is arguably risky vs olimar, and I am not familar to what extend m2k knows the ic's mu. I would simply have to ask m2k about how confident he feels in those sitautions.
Dabuz tyrant/anti/terry Gnes m2k are the "fillers". These are the people who will probably take stocks reliably even if it is a trade.
The counterpicks/gimmicks are you (dehf), esam, and whoever USA puts in as lucario.
The only issue I see with lucario is setting up the crews gimmick, I don't think world has any characters lucario outright beats, so getting the set up could be difficult. However I think Junebug and Trela are obviously good choice regardless.
I think Esam should be in though, you either get top pikachu which could easily abuse lack of mu knowledge or we get ice climbers on a neutral.
You could also save m2k and have him auto ditto the first metaknight sent in the crew.
So I'd put it as
1. M2k
2. second top metaknight
3. DEHF
4. Gnes
5. Dabuz
6. Esam
7. Top lucario
8. vinnie maybe third top metaknight/ maybe top snake (havok, razer ,fatal).
