Can anyone link me to the channel that is uploading the sets in Genesis 3? Want to know cause I can't watch all of top 32

Is there even a channel? searching up "showdowngg" on youtube didn't get me anything.

 

[C0rvus]

Ranai is going off. Wow. This is some volatile doubles. it could go either way, but I think Ranai/Komorikiri should take it.

Edit: And they do! That last match was so intense.

[Rashyboy05]

Want, what's happening with Larry Lurr?

Good thing, Japan! I was on the edge of my sit the entire time

[Zannabluke]

hahahaha that double usmash

goooood **** japan

 

[Plain Yogurt]

Japan taking crews and doubles. Will they snag singles as well?

 

[hypersonicJD]

Damn. I actually though ZeRo and Nairo had it. Amazing sets either way. This tourney quite honestly is even better than Big House 5. The upsets are even bigger.

 

[Nu~]

America lookin' like the land of the free after that set

Honestly tho, Japan is amazing.

 

[TDK]

First up in top 32[?] is ESAM vs RIN. Let's see how well ESAM will do vs the trainer.

 

[Twizman]

That doubles match was one of the best sets I've seen. Maybe the best match ever for me.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Most hype Smash 4 set yet

 

[Purin a.k.a. José]

That Volleyball
Rin is being forced to approach, but he was too defensive on my opinion

 

[Das Koopa]

Ito and RIM are out. Dabuz sent his opponent into losers in Top 8 while doubles were going on.

 

[Yonder]

Dang it, I was rooting for Wii Fit that match. Bring it back Rin! That header spike was pretty nice, along with the early stock kill from Esam.

 

[TDK]

Looks like it's 6WX vs Hyuga next.

 

[Plain Yogurt]

Unsurprisingly, the strategy of "hover beyond the ledge" doesn't really work against one of the stronger edge guarders in the game.

ESAM beats RIN 3-0

 

[C0rvus]

Okay Hyuga is bodying 6WX. It's pretty clear he's never faced a Toon Link of this calibur. Not a bad MU for TL at all. Now nobody is going to be sleeping on this character anymore.

 

[williamsga555]

Holy ****ing ****

Tyrant

Smooth Criminal

He does it again. So cleeeaaan.

 

[TDK]

Dang, Hyuga's impressive. I think Toon Link will be joining the Ike/DK/ROB level of mid tiers after this?

 

[Fatmanonice]

Pikachu's hard. Short characters are tough for Wii Fit because they can simply duck under a lot of her attacks or they have attacks that make her miss. Pikachu easily blows off most of Wii Fit's ledge options and doesn't have to chase her offstage to put pressure on her. He can just sit at the edge and fire off thunder jolts and fsmash to his heart's delight. Doesn't have a lot options against getting knocked around by quick attack either. Probably Wii Fit's second hardest match up after Metaknight.

 

[Das Koopa]

Oof, wrong call on Will. No idea who that spot's going to then. Maybe Tyrant based on his performance.

Hyuga gives a solid 3-0.

 

[TDK]

Hyuga bodies 6WX. Next match is SlayerZ vs. Nakat.

Go SlayerZ!

 

[Zannabluke]

Dang, Hyuga's impressive. I think Toon Link will be joining the Ike/DK/ROB level of mid tiers after this?

tl has strong reps in japan too, i remember a tournament where there were two of them in top 8
even before genesis, he belonged to the upper part of the cast

 

[Purin a.k.a. José]

That Shield Break was destructive ^^'

 

[Twizman]

Damn Fatality, the knee for America haha

 

[Yonder]

That set was really hype, Slayer brings it back winning 3 in a row.

 

[Purin a.k.a. José]

And yet another upset! Slayerz almost took the 3-0. I'm loving the Bo5 format so far!

 

[Das Koopa]

SlayerZ pulls a reverse 3-0 on Nakat after losing 2 sets. Peach movin' on up.

 

[ARISTOS]

That reverse 3-0 by SlayerZ. Glorious.

Stop CP to FD pls

 

[C0rvus]

NAKAT choked. Lots of fsmashes. Feel kinda bad for him, he looked hella disappointed. SlayerZ is a great player though, props to him. The Pika v Peach MU is a tough one. Peach in top 16 hype!

 

[Cereal Bawks]

Who did Ryuga lose to?

 

[MF Viewtiful]

Lord Trela is up!

 

[Purin a.k.a. José]

That Up-B was literally over the top /o\

 

[Nu~]

He does it again. So cleeeaaan.

Perhaps I was wrong about meta knight. It's just Abadango that plays him so linearly.

Tyrant makes MK look fun and versatile as hell

 

[TDK]

The one set I had to miss. Sounds glorious though.

Xzax vs Ranai next. I'm hedging my bets on Ranai.
