Sumabato RB (West Japan) - Koto (Thunders) wins Sumabato #18

[Dax]

Welcome to the Sumabato Ranking Battles

Alright, some of these videos were already posted in the japanese videos topic, but since this is a series of tournaments, and 2 of them were already done, I thought it was a good idea to make a single topic and order the vids.

http://smashbrothers.org

If the video is named in Japanese, just search for the Kanjis I put near the player's name to find him.
Please note that in general there are vids only of the top 5.

[ChivalRuse]

Woah. Japan still plays melee?

 

[PB&J]

good stuff

 

[Zephynazo]

Yay for Japan! :D

 

[Fly_Amanita]

Go Tani. When were these tourneys?

 

[Dax]

#1 was october 2009 while #0 was like may 2009, not sure if I recall correctly though. Anyway I can guarantee both are 2009

 

[Metà]

Daaamn, I'm gonna have to try to find these players when I go to Osaka this summer ^ ^

I wonder if S-Royal still remembers me, haha. He was at the first smash tournament I ever hosted :3. First place lol, ***** us Canadians

 

[Rannskita]

every match on fd?

 

[Lixivium]

Koto = Thunders

for those who don't know

 

[joeplicate]

tani is awesome

 

[DJMirror]

****... Tani is too good

 

[The Star King]

I heard in some Japanese tournaments, they only play on FD (no joke).

 

[Radical Dreamer]

It used to be just FD and Dreamland. Now it looks like just FD.

 

[brownsheep]

ok theres no way they havent secretly been playing all this time. maybe not as the huge organized community it once was, but i have a hard time believing these guys just dropped the game and picked it up again. i dont remember seeing that many powershields or multishines in any of their older vids. that **** takes practice.

i guess no one said they dropped it, but the impression i had was that they were all a bunch of kens that quit and moved on.

 

[Metà]

japan has always been crazy good at minute technical things like that, where have you been? Japan is allll about the powershielding : )

just watch any of disc's matches, lol

I can explain you about that, because it's written on the site. It seems that after the last Ketubato, people were just waiting for Brawl. But then it didn't get that many people interested, especially not many melee players. So things stopped for a bit. IKKI, which previously used to organize the Ketubato tournaments, stopped doing them at all, and I don't think that he's playing anymore, sadly. So, on the site Koto (Thunders) wrote that he found a new place, and after a lot of months tried to organize a new tournament (sumabato #0). 48 People got there, so they now restarted. Also, Captain Jack, Masashi, Aniki and others seems to not be playing anymore but that's just what I see

 

[Zephynazo]

The good thing is that Japan has started playing again

Hope they keep it up!

 

[brownsheep]

just watch any of disc's matches, lol

i was speaking specifically about tani, although im probably just remembering incorrectly

and thanks for the info dax

 

[joeplicate]

tani was getting really good even before brawl, iirc
he started beating mach dash and stuff and getting in finals with captain jack

i remember a period where there were lots of tani vs shu matches

 

[Kouryuu]

Tani is amazing.

I only wish for Mikael to come back and play Peach again... *sigh*

 

[Radical Dreamer]

There are some old (2007) videos of Tani against Masashi, Shu and Mach Dash, and they're all pretty amazing.

 

[Slinky]

7/10 interesting styles

 

[fullynick]

may i ask, slinky

do you have any sort of marking criteria?

 

[null55]

Slinky is M2K. chill with the questioning.

anyway good **** Japan. i hope a huge revival will occur, but i'm just glad to see vids from Melee's hometown.

 

[Zephynazo]

Slinky is M2K? really?

 

[Ballistics]

can you post the links with the names of the players i cant read japanese

at zephy, no slinky isnt mew2king lollerblades

 

[Zephynazo]

I see, thanks, i almost belived that for a sec there =P

 

[S.R. XXVII]

I like how Slinky just comes in, posts his opinions, and just leaves. If flames do ignite, he's already long gone. And look at that join date, he's an OG.

 

[Ndot]

woot Japan. Pro powershields. o_O

 

[Dax]

can you post the links with the names of the players i cant read japanese

Sumabato 0 vids, on my channel, are already all translated.
Sumabato 1 vids, on Koto's channel, are translated in the comments.

 

[null55]

LOOOL. you really don't know.

 

[Dax]

Sorry guys, MAJOR ERROR by me. It's HOSHIKABI and not HOSHINOKIRBY. After reading Hoshi i though at hoshinokirby for unknown reasons. Hoshikabi, instead, was DK and Sheik mainer from long time.

 

[Fly_Amanita]

I've always seen his name spelled "Hosikabi" or "Hoshino Kirby", so I was under the impression that either one is fine. His Sheik is cool.

 

[4Serial]

gooood ****.

 

[RockCrock]

Kou camps like a female dog. He looks good when he's not camping, though.

 

[Radical Dreamer]

Yeah, I think Hoshikabi and Hoshino Kirby is actually the same person.

 

[ShootingStars]

Kou camps like a biiiiiiiitch. He looks good when he's not camping, though.

nothing is wrong with camping, others can be aggressive like a *****, while others can camp
its all in their play style

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

I really like Tani's marth. Loving that powersheilding. =)

 

[Dax]

Alright, update time

two things:

1st, the Doc which was called _Jun (That's what was written) is actually Farusu, as stated in the result page. Not a new player.


2nd, another tournament ended on the 1st of November

1° Mach Dash
2° Koto
