Summer of Smash Week 8: EVO 2017

[Ziodyne 21]

Does not look too good for KEN though. I do not think Salem has ever lost a set to a Sonic once.. But if any Sonic main has a shot at beating Salem, its KEN

 

[Nu~]

NAIRO VS VOID MATCHES GIVE MY LIFE MEANING

 

[Nu~]

But now I'm depressed T_T

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Ok serious question...how in the heck does Nario make the Sheik MU look so good for ZSS?!?

 

[Minordeth]

Nairo pulled that one back from the depths and held on strong to that last stock. Even after void two stocked him game 2.

Edit: I forgot who mentioned it, but the top Sheiks hate playing against Nairo. And given that if he wins the first game, he gets the last counterpick in a Bof3, and you are inevitably going to BF or DL.

Anyone else having trouble with Twitch today? I'm trying to access the website but all I get is a blank white screen. Even when I try mobile it won't work, just tells me "error bad request". So frustrating to miss top 8 of Smash.

 

[TDK]

What does Mr. R do in that matchup to make it look hopeless that VoiD doesn't?

 

[Lord Dio]

......okay then.
KEN spent around 30-40 seconds just running around fishing for something.
Apparently it was an fsmash to take the stock.

 

[MarioManTAW]

Salem 2-0 KEN

Salem may have some crazy opinions about characters but he seems fully able to and committed to backing them up

Also twitch is up again

We're either watching it on TV or on a Youtube Stream

That Witch Time Fail tho.
Game 1 of Salem vs KEN in a nutshell:
KEN does about 70-90% on Salem, all the while taking little to no damage.
KEN then runs around the stage for the next minute, with Salem randomly tacking on hits until at the end of the minute, they are about even percent-wise.
A stock si taken.
The above happens, again.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

So can we offically call Salem "The hedgehog killer" in Smash 4 now? Becuase his record vs Sonic is of pure dominance

 

[|RK|]

Sonic still bad I guess

Lmao, Salem wins again

Nairo with the bowser pick?

 

[Lord Dio]

WHAT

WHEN IS SD->ladder combo kill A THING

 

[MarioManTAW]

Tweek 2-1 Nairo

 

[The-Technique]

That ***ing SD broke my heart, man.

 

[TDK]

I autoban triplats because of that

Nairo with the bowser pick?

Perked my interest for a moment. How close was it with Bowser? Although if he switched back to ZSS, I guessing not much so...

Ahh well, thanks for trying to make some hype happen Nairo.

won game 1, lost game 2.
Man......the rest of the night's matches will be Bo5 though, right?

With Bowser, he won game one, lost the second, and then decided to go ZSS.

He started with Bowser, and won game 1. After Tweek two-stocked him game 2, THEN he brought out ZSS.

Not bad I suppose. So Bowser gets some points for this tourney then at least.


I know for a fact no one else has any pockets that are worth the hype from here on, maybe Zero's Falcon but i doubt we will see it.

He won game 1 lost game 2 got pineapples on dreamland game 3 with zss.

 

[Pyrover]

Explain to me why anyone ever goes to the top platform against ZSS. You know that she wants to up air you as soon as you go there.

We all know Zard on Dreamland is the hidden counterpick with u throw on platform.

Salem has a pretty great Samus, tho.

 

[MarioManTAW]

Salem 2-1 Tweek

 

[NotLiquid]

Well at least I was right about Salem getting Top 3!

His clutch factor is unreal. My god.

Salem is broken

 

[Heracr055]

I love you Salem. Your losers run at Nairo Saga was amazing. Now you're in LF at EVO. Good stuff to you no matter what happens

 

[Minordeth]

Salem, man.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

His clutch factor is unreal. My god.

When you combine a player with an unreal clutch factor with a character with an unreal clutch factor. You get this.

 

[Minordeth]

God, Fox is sooooo good at making Bayo feel unsafe as hell on landing.

EDIT: Like they never nerfed Fox's jab at all

 

[NotLiquid]

God I love Bayonetta's recovery LOL
