Evo 2kXV Competitive Impressions

[Drarky]

Can't be have at the very least one good Link on the stream please?

 

[Baskerville]

Why did he trampoline into his up smash lol

Free fallin'

 

[zeldasmash]

What's with these Link's? Can't there be at least one good one?

 

[Thinkaman]

There was a decent link in my pool, for what that's worth

 

[PUK]

At least we saw a PK flash kill, a thing as rare as the bigfoot.

I imagine people only save them for disrespect edgeguards.

Assuming Kirinblaze still plays Link, there might be hope: http://evo2015.s3.amazonaws.com/brackets/ssb4_e54.html. Soronie's not there, Keitaro's locked to Falco because of the stream goal, and I don't know any other Link players.

 

[C0rvus]

A good Charizard, how refreshing. But Sky needs to work on those references lmao.

 

[Djent]

Thanks for keeping me updated while I'm stuck at work, guys. /backtowork

I haven't seen KirinBlaze in a LONG time. Would be neat to see him make it through pools, but I'm not sure how much he's changed.

Also, Charizard won. HYPE.

More like that Falcon doesn't know what he's doing. The Zard isn't even using his NAir.

Yeah that became pretty apparent during games 2 and 3. Too many random smash reads. Not enough nair.

 

[Ryu_Ken]

Alright, time for Pit vs. Sheik.
Another guy I haven't seen used a lot in tourneys. This could be interesting.

Edit: I had no idea Sheik could spike with her Dair on the ledge.

Because BF has very slim ledge

 

[Spinosaurus]

I'm already seeing people surprised by how legit MK is in this game. lol

 

[ぱみゅ]

And Regi is getting to the stream! Go Mexico!

 

[Nu~]

A female Pac-Man player??

I don't think I've ever seen anything so rare and pleasant in smash 4

Edit: nvm. It was the dude. Still awesome to see some pacman

 

[ぱみゅ]

sometimes is painfully obvious when people do NOT know the Pacman matchup

 

[Nu~]

And when the Pac-Man is playing wayyy too linearly

 

[ぱみゅ]

Cooky's adaptation is amazing tho.

 

[Hippieslayer]

watching this pacman is straight out painful jesus christ

 

[Nu~]

Oh, it was the girl playing Pac.

Glad to see a Pac-main advance in bracket. Just wish I saw a little more variety in her game play. Everything was just so...routine

 

[ぱみゅ]

nvm, Cooky got all dopey on FD and got hit by pretty much every single fruit.

 

[Hippieslayer]

how the hell did that pac win playing like that? :S

 

[Unknownkid]

Why no Custom Pac-Man? This was the perfect chance to abuse Freaky Fruit.

 

[FullMoon]

So has aMSa played yet? I kinda went to take a 3 hour nap.

 

[BSP]

Why no Custom Pac-Man? This was the perfect chance to abuse Freaky Fruit.

With Pac-Man's EVO sets, taking custom anything = no default trampoline. If I were there, I'd be going default except for specific cases probably.

 

[Superbat]

Yoshi top 10? 20XX is here. This yoshi is the future.

Right. Abadango was complaining about the same thing during his stream.

Is Yoshi's Fair safe on shield?

 

[ぱみゅ]

Remember that Pacman-ZSS match?
Apparently commentators got it all wrong and it was R1 of the pool http://evo2015.s3.amazonaws.com/brackets/ssb4_d44.html

 

[Spinosaurus]

Is Yoshi's Fair safe on shield?

Yeah but it's hard spacing it consistently.

 

[warionumbah2]

I can whistle every animal crossing music on the spot. Such great music to fight on, gets me pumped.

 

[Unknownkid]

Yeah but it's hard spacing it consistently.

I see.

Also good avatar image. You have good taste.

 

[MajorMajora]

No items sheik only final destination Smashville.

 

[Vipermoon]

I'M LIVID. Mr. E used to be this amazing Marth that everybody loved because he was the underdog. Now that he's a Sheik (despite his old main's buffs) I sincerely hope he doesn't make it out of pools and that his character gets nerfed. And I never wanted Sheik nerfs until now, until I saw this treason on Marth and his kingdom.

Well damn lol.

It does seem kinda ironic that the person that used to say "what are tiers?" and "best Marth" in his YouTube videos, is now shiek main #200

 

[Gamegenie222]

Pickka top tier. Guess he was tired of losing to dumb stuff.

 

[Vipermoon]

Well damn lol.

Lmao. Good point. His combo video literally is titled "Do tiers matter?" or some crap like that.

Edit: His Sheik wasn't even good

Somebody's berserk button was pushed.

I guess tiers do matter
