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.

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

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.

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

Kirihara is done. Double-eliminated by Hyuga, who sneaks into top 32 and faces ZeRo.
KEN beats TLTC and advances in losers.
Marss is also in top 32 losers.
6WX also survives:

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.

Character Diversity in top 32 (based off of Djent's and Das Koopa's lists).
x 5: :4sheik:
x 3: :4sonic:
x 2: :4zss::4diddy::4cloud2::4marth::4villager::4metaknight::rosalina::4mewtwo::4corrin:
x 1: :4gaw::4ryu::4robinm::4pit::4lucario::4pikachu::4megaman::4tlink::4ness::4mario:
I think that's it. What a weird top 32 (21 characters so far and maybe more to be seen).

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

Top 32 solo mains, insofar as they have such:
:4sheik::4sheik::4sheik::4sheik:
:4sonic::4sonic::4sonic:
:rosalina::rosalina::4marth::4marth::4diddy::4diddy::4zss::4zss::4metaknight::4metaknight::4mewtwo::4mewtwo::4villager::4villager:
:4gaw::4megaman::4pit::4mario::4fox::4tlink::4robinm::4cloud::4pikachu::4ryu::4lucario:

Note: lots of people have :4cloud: in their pocket (especially Komo, who I listed as :4sonic: to keep it at 32)

Non-zero chance of seeing :4alph: or :4pacman: pulled out by the Usual Suspects, so that's fun as always.

Respectable performances from :4bayonetta: and :4littlemac: at this event, even though they didn't make top 32.

Curious to hear about how :4falcon::4luigi::4corrin::4myfriends::4lucas::4dk: 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 :4ness: in top 32? Edit: Ah, SS, right.

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.

*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.

Just want to say that Angbad :4olimar: 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.

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. :)

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.

Top 48:

x 5: :4sheik::4sonic::4cloud2:
x 4: :rosalina:
x 3: :4ness:
x 2: :4zss::4diddy::4marth::4villager::4metaknight::4mewtwo::4corrin::4bayonetta::4mario::4fox:

(Total: 27?)

Thinker: The real top-level gatekeeper was :4littlemac: all along, with his henchmen :4falcon: and :4yoshi:.

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

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

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?
