Event - Apex 2015 Scheduling the finals during the Super Bowl was a terrible idea.

Definitely going lose a lot of potential live viewers.

 

[Juggleguy]

Nah. Different mediums. It's not like this is a TV program vs TV program.

 

[Spazzy]

Not trying to be a Melee fanboy, but Melee singles I think at least bring in the largest crowd. The super bowl begins at 5:30 and Top 8 Melee starts at 9. It shouldn't be that bad

 

[Raoh]

Super Bowl is 6:30 ET. We'll be midway through the 3rd quarter when the Melee finals start.

I am certainly one example of someone who would be watching then but won't because I have Super Bowl social functions to attend; doubt I'm the only one. Also if my team were in the game I couldn't imagine concentrating on playing Smash. Or in general cause I always have money riding on these things.

I honestly didn't even know the Super Bowl was this weekend till now.

On the other hand I've been waiting for Apex since December and don't really follow football.

I know how you feel. I live in WA, just outside of Seattle and I'm literally one of the only people I know that isn't going crazy about the Seahawks right now. I really don't care about football, but I'm taking Sunday off of work to watch Apex.

Sports theory for me is good for my Smash game.

4 vs 4 is almost a basketball team

 

[CanISmash]

Cheer up dude. Best case scenario, smash 4 takes extremely longer than expected. Melee starts a late. Melee starts around the time the superbowl ends.

 

[ZeldaMaster]

Wait, the SuperBowl happens this Sunday? lol I think that people who even know what competitive Smash is are more interested in Apex than the SuperBowl

 

[Raoh]

I would like to take this time to thank snow and criminal negligence

Melee is more important than handegg
