Official Summer of Smash: Week #7 - EVO 2016 and Co.

[Das Koopa]

Pugwest 2-0 Tweek

 

[ARGHETH]

Trela 2-1 Wrath.
That SD...

 

[dakotaisgreat]

Wrath was making me want to off myself, jesus christ almighty that was terrible.

 

[HoSmash4]

Winners top 32

Losers Top 32

 

[Thinkaman]

The first person to post a top 32 list will earn themselves a whole "like"; don't let the excitement of this possibility overwhelm you.

If it has characters used attached, I will do my best to like it faster.

 

[Djent]

Semis bracket is slowly being updated.

 

[thehard]

Yeah ZeRo's clutch factor has all but disappeared, it used to be his greatest strength and won him many events in the past.

Worth it fam.

 

[FeelMeUp]

Kame vs Mr. R and Nairo vs Ranai should be THE sets to watch tomorrow.
Especially considering Nairo said yesterday that he has played Komo over 3-5 times in tournament but has never played Ranai.

 

[MistressRemilia]

I think it's pretty *****ng outstanding that Regi has legitimately a good shot at getting Top 8 winners.
Beating VoiD won't be easy but he can certainly do it, the winner of Vinnie vs Mr.E may vary, i think Vinnie would be easier because Marth/G&W is a very tricky matchup.
G&W for top 8 n_n

 

[Djent]

Kirihara is done. Double-eliminated by Hyuga, who sneaks into top 32 and faces ZeRo.

最後Hyugaに2-1で負けました...
復帰阻止の時Aボタンで空下する練習しますT^T

KEN beats TLTC and advances in losers.

敗者側TLTCに再び勝ってなんとか敗者側で2日目に進出です！

Marss is also in top 32 losers.

I made this same run (sorta) at genesis 3. Let's fucking go top 32 tomorrow. I need some support tho. Shower me in confidence pleaseeee

6WX also survives:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Thinkaman]

Worth it fam.

Hey man, the deal was a full top 32. I'm willing to pony up my side of the bargain in advance, but let's not get complacent.

 

[Aaron1997]

Any Word on Nicko?

 

[my_T]

[Nu~]

Tfw a Game & Watch and a Lucario are in top 32 of EVO :,)

 

[Das Koopa]

the only reason I know SS is in top 32 btw is because he apparently beat Pink Fresh in (based on bracket) what would've had to be the finals of that Loser's Pool, so... yeah, SS in top 32 is a thing.

 

[HoSmash4]

Loser of Komorikiri/Dabuz plays Hyuga/Zero!

I think that's it. What a weird top 32 (21 characters so far and maybe more to be seen).

 

[Yikarur]

Who did cyve lose to?
I heard Tweek in winners, but who did he lose to in losers?

 

[sedrf]

Sheik is still balling and cloud/ryu weren't the horseman of the apocalypse
Sonic will eventually become more hated than rosalina
also kudos to regi

 

[Thinkaman]

Top 32 solo mains, insofar as they have such:





Note: lots of people have in their pocket (especially Komo, who I listed as to keep it at 32)

Non-zero chance of seeing or pulled out by the Usual Suspects, so that's fun as always.

Respectable performances from and at this event, even though they didn't make top 32.

Curious to hear about how fared overall--I saw some decent success with these characters, but lost track of how far anyone took them beside Mr. CC's Luigi.

Who plays in top 32? Edit: Ah, SS, right.

 

[sedrf]

ss plays ness

 

[ARGHETH]

Who did cyve lose to?
I heard Tweek in winners, but who did he lose to in losers?

Probably Pugwest, though it's possible he lost to Raziek/Z.

 

[Das Koopa]

SS outplaces FOW and Shaky

ayy lmao

Ehhh, if you really really wanna pick hairs, imo only Game and Watch, Pit and Robin are the only "weird" characters there. A weird top 32 would be like, Jigglypuff, Zard, and Zelda chilling there too.

Nah this one is pretty normal. There is always one out of place character. Regi got top 32 at another massive event, wasn't it Evo 2015 last year with G dub?

So really, in all narrowing down, to me Robin is the only weird be up there. Maybe Pit but Robin is considered lower mid...

The rest of the characters there kind of define the current meta.

Lack of Diddy's though per normal standards.


Edit: Fox is missing from that list, Larry Lurr.

 

[Heracr055]

*EDIT: I can't read, please disregard my correction earlier, Yonder!
Trela's still in, keeping the dream alive.
I'm happy with the success that Marth players are having in this tournament. It's also interesting to see Mewtwo appearing more than once; he's definitely a threat on the rise.
Dedicated players showing that Sheik's not dead; much respect for those who stuck with her.

 

[Blue Banana]

Non-zero chance of seeing or pulled out by the Usual Suspects, so that's fun as always.

Just want to say that Angbad barely missed out on top 32, losing to Marss in losers' finals. There could have been a solo Olimar for tomorrow's bracket, but oh well.

 

[BunbUn129]

I feel kind of sad that Ito and Tyrant will have to play each other if they both win round 1 of top 32. Guess that means only 1 MK can get top 16.

Hope we see an MK ditto.

 

[FullMoon]

Huh I didn't know Stroder went to EVO, 33rd with Greninja is pretty nice, shame he had to run into Sonic of all things. but at least they were close games.

 

[ReroRero]

Only two Cloud and also two Marth

haha what

 

[Yikarur]

cyve got disqualified in winners and lost to pugwest in losers
Marth > Diddy confirmed 8)

 

[Thinkaman]

Can we eek out the 16 players who got 37th, to round out a full top 48?

Spoilers: Yes.

1. Salem
2. Kirihara
3. DOOM
4. TLTC
5. Seagull Joe
6. Shaky
7. Tweek
8. ANTi
9. Pink Fresh

(Total: 27?)

Thinker: The real top-level gatekeeper was all along, with his henchmen and .

 

[Nobie]

Dang, I really wanted to see HIKARU on the bigger stage.

Also, good job to the Marths for really showing up.

 

[ShadowGuy1]

Wait, there are so many things I did not expect from this top 32. fill me in in the upsets

EDIT:Zero and Mr.E are having a flame war on Twitter. Don't even know if there was a match

EDIT:Zero and Mr.E are having a flame war on Twitter. Don't even know if there was a match

Mr. E beat ZeRo, Xaltis and Regi in winners side of top 32, Day and Dath are in losers side top 32, and Nietono, FOW, Anti, Zinoto, and Kirihara are out.

 

[ShadowGuy1]

Mr. E beat ZeRo, Xaltis and Regi in winners side of top 32, Day and Dath are in losers side top 32, and Nietono, FOW, Anti, Zinoto, and Kirihara are out.

So I guess Hyuga knew the matchup. I expected Regi in top 32 tbh. Do people not remember last year lol? Who did Zinoto and Anti lose to?
