[Conviction]

Kakera used it twice in the second GF match against SLS, I believe the rule is somewhere around here:

http://smashbrothers.org/tournament/x/rule.htm

I think it's No. 7, not sure.

It says EDC is not allowed for more than 10 seconds and then after you do it a first time you must destroy the opponent's stock. Until then, further use of it is prohibited.

Ah I see, thanks.

Any updates? I've looked at the major channels and so far, there aren't any

Next tourney I know of is on 4th September.

Litte info-update on the next Sumabato tourney. Due to summer holidays/vacation the sign-ups have been going slow for the first weeks but have picked up some pace. It's at over 60 entrants now and some big names have signed themselves up already: 9B of course, Nagahari, Msasshi, Brood, SLS and Kakera as well as local "heroes" like Kie, Miyacchi and Modori [no word on Earth and Cross now]. It's still almost a month away so the attendance list will probably grow noticeably until then.

[MechaWave]

So jelly of y'all who can access these places. T_T

 

[~ Gheb ~]

The link I posted requires no sign-up or registration.

 

[MechaWave]

No, not that website. I know about that one. I'm talking about SMAcom.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Sumabato is next week. Attendance has hit 90 by now and a couple of big names have signed up as well - namely Nietono and Cross. The main focus of interest of the tourney will likely be how the elite of the east [Brood and Nietono mainly] will do against the "rising stars" of the west such as Kie, Cross and SLS.

 

[xDD-Master]

yay =D

Hopefully the save, record and upload everything ^-^

 

[~ Gheb ~]

These tourneys always record WSF, WF, LSF, LF and GF sets.

Otori has finally signed himself up as well making it even more uncertain who's going to take the cake in the end.

 

[Luigi player]

I hope they won't play bo1 sets or something like that like they do so often.... cuz that's kinda making it somewhat random lol

 

[~ Gheb ~]

They never do that for any final matches. All recorded sets will be best of 3.

 

[Luigi player]

Doesn't mean that the matches previous to the finals aren't a bit random through that. :V

 

[xDD-Master]

Yeah Bo1 is... weird and as Lp already said sometimes really random.

@Gheb: OK, then I hope, they dont forget to save everything xD

The results are up on smashbrothers.org
Not very surprising anymore Nietono won the tourney - followed by Kakera, a Snake player I don't know yet [google translation calls him "black belt"] and Otori.

1st Nietono
2nd Kakera
3rd "Black Belt" / Kuroobi
4th Otori
5th SLS
5th Aki ?
7th Nagahari
7th Brood
9th Ocean
9th Cross
9th ???
9th ???
13th Masashi
13th Earth
13th ???
13th ???

Full / Correct results will probably be posted by Suinoko again. That should bring some more clarity ... that's all I could find out so far.

 

[xDD-Master]

Interesting...

 

[Zankoku]

Black Belt/Kuro Obi??

other two 9th placers were at’LAV◆ and Kii
other two 13th placers were Namaata and Misaki

My, how 9B has fallen...
25th:
Tamanyaso/Kuroan/Seruka/9B/Ryuuji/Cedric/Nosha/Modori

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Oh wow that's a big surprise! Kuroobi usually places in the lower ends of A-Bracket / Top of B-Bracket in the Kantou area. But the translation seems accurate and fits the description on the result page. Now I'm REALLY curious for vids because according to the bracket he must've beaten SLS and Otori :o

And lol 9B plays Lucario now, it's no surprise he can't do that well anymore but whatever floats his boat I guess.

 

[SaveMeJebus]

How consistent was he with ICs when he first picked them up? Maybe he just knows something we don't

 

[Chuee]

Consistent as in he won about 5-6 tournaments in a row.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Videos are finally being uploaded. What you're going to see:

WSF: Kakera vs Nietono / Kuroobi vs Otori
WF: Nietono vs Kuroobi
LSF: Kakera vs Otori
LF: Kakera vs Kuroobi
GF: Nietono vs Kakera

When Suinoko filmed the japanese traveling to apex I'm pretty sure he mentioned Kuroobi as "best female smasher".

 

[_Kadaj_]

Are you sure that wasn't Kuroan?

I'm pretty sure 9B is a guy, I watched d3 ditto set with him actually in the camera view

 

[Zankoku]

Kuroobi, Kuroan, and KyuuB are three different people, let's try not to confuse them lol

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Kuroan is the one they referred to as the "best female smasher". Kuroobi and 9B are both male as can be seen in the countless pics @ smashbrothers.org

 

[phi1ny3]

So I heard IB is back on ICs again. Yay and nay I guess?

http://allisbrawl.com/blogpost.aspx?id=123967

 

[~ Gheb ~]

I didn't update yet because I thought they would upload Kakera vs Otori LSF but Suinoko confirmed that it wasn't recorded so I'll update the OP now. I'll also watch [and might add later] the vids from Suinokos AIB blog.

Seems like Kyuubi is tired of losing

 

[phi1ny3]

Even I wouldn't stay lucario if after several months you don't go anywhere. I personally think Lucario would do pretty well in a region like that merely because of stage + characters that happen there, but at the same time Lucario is much different in play than what most of the japanese do (Lucario doesn't do "precision" very well unless you're like Trela lol), he's a lot of hard reads and relatively "messy" play.

 

[xDD-Master]

"Good news! 9B uses ICs MAINLY AGAIN^^
but he cant go Apex for his job."

iSad!

C-Stick = Gaia

I willl update vids when they are uploaded in regular quality. Patience.

 

[_Kadaj_]

Doesn't hurt to post them for people who don't care about the quality, you can just put the higher quality ones on the front page when they come around

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Yeah that's what I was planning but it seems like there won't be any high definition videos. If nothing comes up by the end of the weekend I will include them in the OP as we have them now.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

OK, it seems like ssbbmania has uploaded vids from the Numabura tourney so I will update now. In the meantime SumabatoX9 has been announced and will be held on 9th October. The biggest names in the list of participants so far are 9B, SLS, Nagahari, Akira, Rain, Brood and Kakera. Players to watch out for are Shin and Modori.

Edit: The videos on ssbbmania are only 5 in number [the fragment of Otori vs Shogun doesn't count] and only single matches so I'm not sure whether I'll add them into the OP or not. In either case I'll try to cut down the OP a little to make it easier to wortk with and find stuff.

 

[Flayl]

Hey, can anyone tell me what this is?

http://wvvw.blog.shinobi.jp/

 

[Isatis]

It basically seems like an aggregate of smash tournament videos.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

SumabatoX9 tourney is over, videos can be found on the westsmash channel.

1st 9B
2nd Kakera
3rd SLS
4th at'LAV (Selcia) []
