I honestly really like watching Zero's Diddy. Can't hate on that.

Maybe its because I almost always choose difficult characters aside from Yoshi in this game...i'm beginning to understand greninja. Is it good to learn two of the most difficult characters in the game to main or would that be too much when playing competitively?
I've tried to use Peach myself and I say that if you like the character and are willing to expend time learning it, go for it. Two difficult mains could be tricky but well, if it works for you, go for it.
 

Noa.

It's impossible for brackets and pools to be seeded perfectly, just because players can be somewhat inconsistent, and there are not that many results in between regions to help seed, especially so early in the tournament.

However that pool with Socal, Choco, Nietono, and 6WX was stupid. lol Props to 6WX and Nietono for making it out though.

I mean, Nietono just double 2 stocked some average Diddy Kong from Texas who somehow managed to get in a position where he's at worst 9th. How could that happen? That guys isn't anywhere near as good as a lot of the players that didn't even make it into the bracket. It descredits the whole results so much, I hate it.

he and peach seem to click with me very well in this game and I do want to see how greninja grows competitively.

I personally met AeroLink before as he goes to San Antonio's monthlies. He actually mains Paluntena, but he has no faith in her and goes Diddy instead.

I dunno how he made it out of pools because his Diddy is not very good, so I'll have to agree with you on that note.

EDIT: ...NAKAT just got demolished by M2K.

The stigma against top players for using top characters is ridiculous. What do you expect?

Please no. I don't to see the characters who made it far get nerfed because of it, especially since Greninja was already nerfed badly before.

To note, I completely agree. If your purpose is to win, use the top characters. My perception of AeroLink only comes from the personal experience of knowing that his Diddy is legitimately not that good.

OH
The same time constraints that allow Melee to have its top 48 on stream? (I know, I know, its Melee. I'm just salty.)
The same time constraints that allowed melee to remain 4 stock even though there were over 1000 entrants and they lost a whole day :p

I'm just mad that a lot of Smash4 matches weren't streamed. We got to see a couple For Glory players (twice at least with that dark pit!) and missed some of the best players.

Anyway I missed some people getting knocked out this morning :( sad

I guess Abadango didn't know that the trampoline can bounce an opponent as soon as they get out of spawn.
Ninja link was able to imitate that as megaman with rush though.

EDIT: this really gives insight on the Pac vs Mega matchup. Mega man wins the zoning game(unless a key, galaxian , or melon cuts through it), but pac wins up close. And both can steal each other's items

Ally has no experience against Amsa's Greninja, or maybe even Greninja in general.

Not looking good for Ally.

I was not expecting Ally to get bodied this way. Damn.

Hopefully he pulls it together.

AMSa's got some moves... with the right angle hydro pumps and going left and right like that o.o
Nice to see he stuck with him even after the nerfs like several others didn't :o

Was rooting for Jtails since he's the 'original Diddy' xD
