Summer of Smash, Week 4: CEO 2017, Sumabato 18

[TDK]

Making this thread now because the event starts on friday and not saturday so this way it's all ready. This week, we've got one of the "big three" of the summer, CEO, and it doesn't disappoint, being the third-largest event of the year. CEO 2016, last year, was also the start of this new era of smash 4, the one where upsets run rampant and anyone can beat anyone, and CEO 2017 looks to withhold that.

[Wintermelon43]

Apprantatly Ally DQ'ed

 

[ShadowGuy1]

Apprantatly Ally DQ'ed

Yeah, but dw as he informed them earlier and the seeding was adjusted earlier.

 

[Bowserboy3]

What happened to Ally to DQ himself? Not feeling up to it? Flight problems?

 

[JB333]

Mr. R 2-1 DewDaDash

That would've been an interesting upset

 

[ShadowGuy1]

What happened to Ally to DQ himself? Not feeling up to it? Flight problems?

Just wanted to relax

ZD>DyrThis was winner finals I think.

 

[TDK]

First real upset: S@NT 2-0 8BitMan

Who's this person?

 

[Illusion.]

S@NT is the #1 player in Puerto Rico.

 

[Game7a1]

Since Jak is up against Larry Lurr, that would mean either that Jak () upsetted Xaltis (), or something else happened.
EDIT: It was xoxo () who upsetted Xaltis. Both will be meeting each other again in Loser's Finals of their pool.

 

[TDK]

LeeT qualifies for top 96, using !

 

[Game7a1]

LeeT () 2-1 Tony
That was a very close match. We've got a Puff, Brawler, and Swordfighter in top 96.

 

[chaos11011]

Leet's a god. Let's go New England!

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Jarrod 2-1 Day

 

[Game7a1]

Jarrod 2-1 ONI Day
Also, Jarrod must have upsetted Bloodcross () or Bloodcross got DQ. The brackets not updating in real-time is making this hard to say.
EDIT: Ninja'd.

 

[TDK]

So, Day vs Bloodcross in pools, one of them drowns.

Fun!

 

[Game7a1]

Given that ewok is up against Ranai, ewok must have either upsetted Ryuga or Ryuga lost to someone else before him.

 

[Game7a1]

Ryo 2-0 ANTi

 

[TDK]

Don't win CEO. You'll get upset in pools next year.

 

[Yonder]

LeeT () 2-1 Tony
That was a very close match. We've got a Puff, Brawler, and Swordfighter in top 96.

LeeT is a low tier deity. I know there is virtually no chance of him getting too much higher, but this is really cool.

 

[Game7a1]

Given that Vitamin is up against 6WX, he must have upsetted Sonido .
(Can't believe the pool was seeded in a way to have a Sonic ditto in Winner's Finals.)
EDIT: 6WX 2-1 Vitamin
Could have gotten either way in game 3.

 

[TDK]

Still firmly believe Sharpy is the best zard.

 

[Game7a1]

Jabe 2-1 Sonido in loser's side.
Jabe is also in top 96 loser's side.

 

[Jaguar360]

Jabe 2-1 Sonido in loser's side.
Jabe is also in top 96 loser's side.

Jabe was an Olimar, Sonido said he lost to Fox and Olimar on Twitter, the Fox being Vitamin.

 

[TDK]

Eldin > Kameme

 

[Game7a1]

Manny 2-1 Locus

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Its looking like what Trela said a while back about Ryu is kinda true, If you do not have to approach Ryu using the right character, well then you win......

 

[Jjab430]

its 2017 and people still think Ryu is top tier

 

[Yonder]

Ryu is basically a more volatile Luigi. You probably fear Ryu up close a bit more, but his approach is want with a meh recovery and mobility. Luigi has the better neutral with fireball over hadouken though.

 

[Game7a1]

Lima 2-0 Tyrant (he opted not to go Meta Knight in this set)

 

[Ziodyne 21]

lima 2-0 Tyrant

Tyrant really should of stuck with MK.

Got, Ninja'd

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Kameme makes it to losers 96 after that upset by Eldin

 

[Game7a1]

Morpheus 2-0 Kameme


Kameme drowns in pools

Other way around.
Kameme went Sheik and won. Morpheus went Megaman and lost.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Other way around.
Kameme went Sheik and won. Morpheus went Megaman and lost.

Lol wow derp.. my bad. I see Kameme playing and one player is an MM I assumed it was him lol

 

[Lord Dio]

Does Kameme dislike the Rock ditto? He seemed fine doing it with Ranai and ScAtt at MSM 100

 

[Game7a1]

Now that Wave D pools are updating.
GMAN and Pillow upset Zephyr

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Does Kameme dislike the Rock ditto? He seemed fine doing it with Ranai and ScAtt at MSM 100

Aba also decided to go Bayo vs Xax

Maybe japanese players just do not like mirror matches?

Aba also says himself Mewtwo loaes the MU .. maybe based on his own stuggles vs her. Well he certianly dominated this paticular Mewtwo player with his own Bayo

 

[Game7a1]

Kogarasuma 2-0 RoguePenguin

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Captain Zack 2-1 Sol

Not an upset, but notable due to coming down to the last stock and possibly last hit for Zack (around 70% dmg). Zack could NOT let himself lose to another Mac...lol

Sol was doing some next-level teching to avoid getting gimped.

 

[Game7a1]

Amiiboking > K9sbruce
Happened off stream, so it's unknown who went what.
EDIT 1: Since Koolaid () is playing Javi, he must have upsetted Tachyon .
Koolaid 2-1 Javi
EDIT 2: Updated the K9 upset.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Koolaid 2-1 Javi
