It's probably good, but I'm not even gonna watch this. Items...
lol, this is actually the reason I was wondering why we didn't see more Sheiks in EVO. I mean, she was already really good with them in Melee, now you're giving her a one-shot KO too?
Too good, EVO. Perfectly balanced to have an infinitely-ranged instant win.

Ya know, I must say...Evo rule set looks fun.
...if people would stop looking at it as "it imbalances the game" to have items and start looking at it as "It changes the game" , I would make an argument for it's liableness in a tournament situation.
In many cases, items are essentially neutral, except they are better in some character's hands then others...which in all honesty, jsut changes the tiers around. I mean look at Fox or Falco now...fast characters, reflectors vs. items and strong Final Smashes.
...vs. say Metaknight, who is still a strong character, but has fewer item defenses and a poor Final Smash in all reality.
Really it just CHANGES the game, to allow new strategies, new game play, and different tier listings. if you look at it as a subset game to everything Smash brothers is capable of, it could have a place in the competitive world, it's just a matter of preference at that point as to who plays what.

...then again...Ankoku has a point. Certain characters would just be the NEW Metaknight.
I still submit however that you could make an argument for it to be competitive...Sheik would just be top tier again.
The problem with EVO's ruleset is that rather than simply adding items to the gameplay, they're choosing majorly destructive items which resulted in gameplay being reliant on them rather than supported by them. I'm perfectly fine with Jack Kieser's attempts at Item Standard Play, but this is ridiculous.

Not dead.
I like how the announcer didn't understand immediately why falco counter picked that stage.
They should of got someone who knew what he was talking about

A great conversation filler at bars and parties
I bet a random person in the audience could be a better announcer >.>

Oh man, the DK stage was ruthless to Sheik; although, I must say, a very fine job avoiding a Landmaster KO.

Lol, that was a pretty good match, items and all.
It added a bit of flavoring, especially the smokeball. The skill was still present though.
Nice.

I'm all for trying new things, including attempts to use items in tournaments, but smash balls are CRAZY BROKEN.
It made the difference between winning by 2 stocks and getting three stocked (the stage played a role too, but no smasl balls = no KOs for sheik)

Omnigamer and Wife announcing MLG streams back in the melee days:
good knowledgeable commentary.
The announcer definitely wasn't very knowledgable...."Good hit! Way-to-go Falco!!"....lmao....
As for the matches....very fun to watch, but the items Evo decided to use are too ridiculous : /

>.> I'm 13 and I could probably give a better commentary than that guy. Good job to sheik avoiding landmaster. But... items in a tourney? Fail. I watched CPU vs Ken. .. CPU just ran away and camped until a decent item popped up then went for it. Fail.

yet another match where items helped the worse player win. YAY evo
