Meta Pound 2016 Competitive Impressions

[Yonder]

So Aba beat Dabuz right? Despite the SDs?

 

[19_]

Omg please im hopping for vs again.

 

[Luco]

That was really, really impressive from Hyuga. I actually really enjoyed watching it, it felt slow and tense which was different and exciting when it came to having the threat of Bayo around. Excited to see what we can draw from that match.

 

[Das Koopa]

Hyuga going straight from one Bayonetta into the other lol

Considering Hyuga struggled vs. Saj I think Pink Fresh will probably win out in the end

 

[Baskerville]

So Aba beat Dabuz right? Despite the SDs?

Yeah. Took 3 games with MK.

 

[Jalil]

So Aba beat Dabuz right? Despite the SDs?

Edit:nvm

 

[BlazGreen]

Impressive 2 stock by Scatt!

1-1 now.

 

[Luco]

Did Scatt just 2-stock bring it back vs Larry's fox?

Yes, yes he did.

EDIT: Did Larry just reverse 2-stock scatt as a response?

Yes... Yes he did.

This is actually really tense and I love it! :D

EDIT: Well dammmmmnnnnnnnnnn that was stupidly close. Props to Scatt!

 

[bc1910]

That was a great game. Scatt putting Mega Man back on the map.

 

[TheMiSP]

Sucks they had to fight each other like that but that was a close, hype set. 3-2 Larry over ScAtt

 

[ShadowGuy1]

Predictions!

Marss beats Tweek
Abadango beat VoiD
Dabuz beats Larry
Esam beat Ally
Hyuga beat Pink Fresh
Kid Goggles beats Mr.R


Yes, that last one is way out there

 

[Y2Kay]

All we need was for scatt to comeback to majors. It's obvious by the tourneys he goes to that he can't afford to travel to far away from Atlanta.

 

[Jehtt]

On the last game, Scatt powershielded a nair from Larry and did a grab right after Scatt lost his first stock. He could have punished it with an up tilt... I wonder if the game would have gone differently if he had gotten that punish, since Larry wouldn't have lived until ~160.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Larry has to play dabuz now though :/

 

[thehard]

I didn't want to root for either player over the other. Great set

I adore how Larry sneaks in f-tilts into his combos and pressure. It's very quick and almost never launches people into the air which can really throw you off. And he keeps doing jabjab mixups...

 

[Das Koopa]

Kirby vs. Mr. R?

That's a gamble lol

 

[Y2Kay]

Larry has to play dabuz now though :/

I guess Dabuz'll see why that matchup is bad for fox.

 

[Das Koopa]

Well that put Kirby on the map

 

[bc1910]

Kirby in top 16?! AND he just took a game off Mr R?

Character variety in this game is amazing.

 

[Wintermelon43]

I......................... I...................................

I can't believe this................

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Luco]

And then Kirby goes and gets a Dsmash on the ledge regarab against Mr R's Sheik.

Wooooooow.

 

[sedrf]

This kirby is actually really good

 

[hypersonicJD]

WHAT!? KIRBY DEFEATING MR.R'S SHEIK AND KID GOOGLES IS ACTUALLY A SONIC MAIN!? THIS TOURNEY IS CRAZY

 

[Y2Kay]

Kid goggles is being put in the map

 

[Smog Frog]

hmmm. mu is a little sus after this patch. i'd have though that kid goggles would have gone because he likely beats but oh well works.

 

[Djent]

Kid Goggles beats Mr.R


Yes, that last one is way out there

Far out there on a distant planet called Pop Star.

 

[Luco]

And yet he goes Sonic and loses?

This is a really weird set.

And he goes back to kirby. Legit guys.

Eep air needles. And eep vanish. So that was interesting.

One last try, and off to a good start.

 

[bc1910]

That Vanish kill was beautiful.

Still not seeing how Kirby's even with Sheik, although it's likely close.

 

[Luco]

Now NEEDLE kirby might be even with Sheik

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Good stuff @da K.I.D.

Didn't even know he's still in the scene.

 

[Luco]

I can finally put a face to that name (and avatar). This pizazz is HYPE.

I literally can't believe this is 2-2 using Kirby.

 

[apparently fuz]

Kid Goggles is game 5 vs. Mr. R as Kirby.

Got to say, never expected this.

 

[Jalil]

That Kirby up throw buff a few patches back really made a difference

 

[HeavyLobster]

I can finally put a face to that name (and avatar). This pizazz is HYPE.

The year was 20HiiiHiii...

 

[Hippieslayer]

wtf is ally gonna do vs esams corrin?

 

[Nobie]

Kirby getting a kill throw combined with Sheik losing reliable kills makes for a dangerous formula.

 

[Luco]

The year was 20HiiiHiii...

This is literally one of my favourite tournaments of all time so far good golly I'm loving everything about this AND IT'S 3AM.

Plz Kirby I BELIEVE IN BAIIIOOO

FTHROW TO FINAL CUTTER IS A THING YOU LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY <3

That Ftilt ---> Uair though. BUT DAIR ---> DSMASH WEEEEE LIVIN.


That was ridiculous. Most hype ever. I won't lie I would have loved Kirby to win it but maaaaaan that was good.

 

[TheGoodGuava]

Please, lemme see Kirby in GF

 

[TurboLink]

wtf is ally gonna do vs esams corrin?

*Implying that ESAM will undoubtedly still be using Corrin*

Adios Kirby.

 

[Smog Frog]

my heart ****ing exploded
