No one's invincible. Upsets happen, especially in Smash4, where there is rage, tons of 50-50s and incredible kill-setups.
And now at the most stacked tournament ever it was obvious that many many upsets would happen.

It's surprising that Zero lost, but his stock losses were mostly because he got hit like once or twice. That's ZSS for you, nothing new at all.

Ally losing to Locus isn't that upsetting imo, it's a really hard MU for Mario. If you don't have a multihit killmove with good range you can't really do much against Ryu just Focusing his way everywhere and staying safe, super threaten to kill you at 60 with a frame 1 invincible move, even if you have a huge lead against him.

ZeRo suggesting on Twitter now that they should just set up an Ally vs ZeRo exhibition

This really is Smash 4 Civil War.
Titans of the game we put on ivory pedestals have fallen, the status quo is being shattered in front of ourr eyes. upsets and character placings we would never think of happening...happened and the Smash 4 scene and talks about meta will never be the same when it's all over.

And its not even top 32 yet...

While all these upsets are euphoric to say the least, this just makes me even more upset that Tea couldn't make it...

Imagine how far he could have gotten in a tournament this volatile? Especially given how Mr.R talked about him...he would have been the ultimate wild card.

I didn't expect VoiD's Fox but it was probably a better idea than his Sheik, but yeah I called HIKARU > VoiD. With MKLeo, Ally, and ZeRo gone HIKARU could go to WFs.

Ok then this tourney is all kinds of craycray (does anyone even use that term anymore?!?), who do you think will be on top when everything's said and done?

Half expecting Winner's Finals to be CaptainZack vs Hikaru at this rate to be honest.

Link in Top 32 whaaaaaaaaaaaaa

This tournament is like the ultimate test of matchup knowledge. You're not just fighting obscure mains, you're fighting the BEST obscure mains.
