Is it safe to assume zero didn't go sheik because he has some new tricks up his sleeve that he didn't wanna spoil?

It just happened right now man. And it was amazing. ZeRo didn't hold back and he used Diddy Kong vs Nairo's Zero Suit. I think it was a 3 stock.
Two stock. Speaking of that set, from the look of things it does look like Zero Suit struggles in neutral against short characters relative to taller fighters. Nairo never had much of an opprotunity to use nair which sets up into so much of ZSS's combos.

Void was looking really crisp, I had know idea he was this good. Going toe to toe with Dabuz and Ally like that, incredible!

The stream-side handling is about as bad as MVG atm. They need to fix all the tech errors before Sunday.

literally a slideshow right now. VGBC save us

Genesis stream is a big mess, I can't believe no one is fixing this crap, I mean this is probably the most important tournatment in smash 4 ffs how come they have this garbage quality stream.

That's debatable. Other upsets that I know of:
Ribs :4ness: 2-0 Mr. ConCon :4luigi:
JacobT :4pikachu: 2-1 over Denti :4sheik: (probably)
EKING :?: over MJG :4villager:

All of these people are still in losers, BTW.
EKING's a Mario and Ryu player from Puerto Rico. Power ranked at #5 as of their 12/18/15 PR.

Man, WFT is so bad, she'll never accomplish anything worthwhile. Her hitboxes are terrible and stuff.
They are (relatively) terrible, did you miss out on how Rin won? By taking the advantage of WFT best feature, her projectile game, and her unique ability to force approaches while ledge camping by slowly herself. False really should've out-lamed her in return when he had stock advantage.

He's playing against some guy named Oni-Heero.
Same person; different tags. Other examples: Larry Lurr was once known as DEHF and Max Ketchum was known as juice.Doom. There's probably more, but I don't remember like I think DJ Fliphop was also known as something else too.

False could've won those matches but for some reason he had to overcommit when Wii Fitt was camping even when he had the % advantage.

I'm not saying Wii Fiit isn't viable or anything and devaluing Rin's win but False made horribly stupid decisions during those matches.

So now we have Ryu vs. Stallina. This will be interesting. I don't get to see this matchup too often.

I'm being somewhat facetious but WFT is not a bad character. Unconventional, maybe, but not bad. She can play one of the best evasive games out of the cast and benefits from it immensely.

When I fight a WFT I know the resulting fight will be draining. She's not the best by a long shot but it takes thought to predict how she's move and attack

Apachai's Ryu just took out falln's Rosalina & Luma. I feel like top 8 will have at least 3 Ryu players. There's already 9B, Trela, and I guess, False or Venom. The rest? Apachai looks all right, but I don't know, and I haven't seen EKING's Ryu ever... There's also Kei? I think that's his tag; he's a Japanese Ryu player who participated in Wombo Wednesday. There's a lot of strong Ryu players out there you can name.

Waymas' Wario is inspiring, man. So patient for the Waft setups.

So, Regi's G&W 2 stocked the best Pikachu in the world then 3 stocked the best Ike in the world.

Let that sink in.

Mexico and the rest of Latin America is one hell of a region. Come on, we should have known this; ZeRo, anyone?
