Maybe one day Mario players will shoot Sonic past the ledge for springing to it.

Quit FLUDD'ing him in neutral please lol.

And then on a different day, maybe people will realize that once you hit 5 seconds with a 50%+ lead, you can hold shield and the game is over.

People complaining about Sonic and cheering for Mario when Mario has frame 2 everything to beat Spindashes and invincible frame 6 Usmash that kills at 90 anyway.

Lol.

Okay, I generally don't like to hate on a player for playing a character optimally, even if that optimal play is "boring", but Ally timing Static Manny out is hilarious.

Holy thing, Custom Sonic is so freaking annoying!!! I would drop the controller if I was playing against one. Props to Ally, this guy is a hero :bee: That's the first time I find a Time-Out to be hype! I don't think I would be as calm as Ally if I won this set.

Static Manny's Sanic being timed out by Ally's Mario.

Oh, the deliciously, nutriciously cruel irony~

Somehow manny getting his soul crushed brought joy to me. Although he's a great sonic I was screaming at the tv when he kept running away.

dat popoff

also a rather diverse top 8(with only 2 :4sheik:!)

winners side:
Mr. R(:4sheik:)
Nairo(:4zss:(possibly :4darkpit:/:4pit:)
Abadango(:4pacman:(possibly :4wario:)
ZeRo(:4sheik:)

losers side:
FOW(:4ness:)
Dabuz(:rosalina:)
Ally(:4mario:)
Esam(:4pikachu:)

notice the complete lack of :4villager: and :4dk:,

You can't blame him for doing what he have to do, buy you cannot blame the audience for loving it when it backfires either.

I was just wondering if they were going to pay respects to Iwata. Well deserved to the man.

What? Is there another person on stream with as cool a name as mine? Or is it my lurking on the thread you saw?

My internet is so bad I can't watch the stream, so I'm using this thread for updates.

Sheik ZSS Ness Rosalina and Pikachu stronger than Villager and DK even with silly customs?
WHO KNEW

Only surprise is how far Ally got and Abadango being further in the bracket than Rain. Gj to him beating ESAM, which I slept through sadly.

It's not only the character diversity that's impressive but the regional diversity too.

NJ/NY, Florida and Japan are the only regions that have more than one representative in the top 12 - those three are pretty clearly the strongest regions right now. Past that it's a healthy and colorful mix of latin america, Europe, Canada and various regions of the USA.

Nairo is a monster. Tech skill, speed, precision, coverage, and style. But Mr. R can totally do this as well.

Agreed. Didn't really think of that. I wanted to see Falcon, instead we got like 3 Sheik's.....
Is not that bad considering it is not all Sheiks and Rosa's.

Also, remember: NOT A SINGLE WINDKONG IN TOP 8! That alone deserves a standing ovation.
