Imagine if Grand Finals is Salem vs Shuton

Wouldn't that be a b

 

[Lord Dio]

Rip Ally.
Dabuz still the best Oli now? Bc it's looking debatable.

Dabuz has been saying that Shuton's the best Olimar for a while now.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Well Ally still had one heck of a Losers Run gotta give him that.

 

[valakmtnsmash4]

The second shuton won 4 people joined the olimar discord saying shuton convinced them to play him lol

tfw at least 4 people are going to drop Olimar within a month.

Considering the previous fight.....I'd love to see Salem dominate again in GFs!

 

[TDK]

Has Dabuz's olimar won a game this tournament?

Edit: Yes

Dabuz 3-0 Zinoto

 

[L9999]

Dabuz with the disrespect.

 

[ARISTOS]

Can we stop with the pre-match hypeman shtick? It's pretty lame lol

 

[|RK|]

Dabuz with the disrespect.

Lmao, his Olimar did way better against Zinoto than against ZeRo.

bruh no

Let them have their fun. It's better when their expectations get destroyed.

Lmao, his Olimar did way better against Zinoto than against ZeRo.

Yes, but he could defeat Zinoto with Rosa but decided to go Olimar anyways.

 

[ARGHETH]

Yes, but he could defeat Zinoto with Rosa but decided to go Olimar anyways.

Or thought that Zinoto was catching onto his Rosa and thought Olimar would do better.

 

[TDK]

ZeRo 3-0 Nairo

 

[Lord Dio]

Time for tsu and salem to duke it out...rpobably the most anticipated match of top 8 for me.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

ZeRo 3-0 Nairo

Off all the times not to bring out his Bowser or Lucina geez.

 

[TDK]

And today, we have another episode of "Bayonetta has issues killing you if you're smart" - Tsu lived to 205% that last game.

Tsu- 3-1 Salem

 

[NotLiquid]

Salem is really well positioned for this Top 8. He could easily reach Winner's Finals at minimum. The only downside is if he does go out against Tsu he's likely to have an early run-in with Ally never mind, read the bracket wrong and it seems like it's most likely to be Dabuz or MKLeo.

Top 8 might not have Bayo in quantity, but....

I should not predict things

 

[L9999]

Lucario is a monster. Who designed this game?

 

[Lord Dio]

WHAT EVEN WAS THAT SET?!
Answer: the most hype set this tournament. legit hope slame makes it through ;losers and tsu beats zero so we can see that again.

 

[Illuminose]

zero>nairo
tsu>salem
dabuz>zinoto
shuton>ally

lets goooo

can i push my luck...

tsu>zero
shuton>nairo
salem>dabuz

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Does Salem have to fight Dabuz now? It does not bode well for him if he does

 

[Lord Dio]

welp, it'll be over when I come home. Best of luck Salem!

 

[Das Koopa]

i'm kinda stunned a lucario is making top 3 at a tournament like this

 

[L9999]

Shuton's getting wrecked.

EDIT: Never mind.

 

[Fenny]

i'm kinda stunned a lucario is making top 3 at a tournament like this

Yeah

But when you factor in that this Lucario actually has a neutral and can survive?

The surprise wore off lmao

 

[TDK]

ZSS is such a mindless character

Nairo 3-2 Shuton

 

[The-Technique]

ZSS is such a mindless character

Nairo 3-2 Shuton

You're joking, right?

 

[valakmtnsmash4]

Shuton was robbed but gg nairo and shuton showed up this tourney :D

 

[|RK|]

Yeah

But when you factor in that this Lucario actually has a neutral and can survive?

The surprise wore off lmao

People keep basing top character potential on the play from non-top players.

 

[Ziodyne 21]

Dabuz is up on Salem 2-0. Dabuz is Salem personal demon. I said facing Dabuz would be his worst case scenario.

 

[ARGHETH]

How many Fsmashes are Salem going to get hit by?

 

[Fenny]

everyone knew that the moment Salem ran into Dabuz in bracket he was getting eliminated

dunno what it is that Zack does that Salem doesn't, but whatever the difference is is what gets him shredded to pieces whenever they run into each other

 

[NotLiquid]

The Bayo dream is dead.

Again.

 

[TDK]

Dabuz 3-0 Salem

This matchup seems to be evenish.

My guess is that in the MU it's Bayo should just to go full aggro and try to always keep the pressure on Rosalina . Zack plays a more aggressive style Bayo and seems to do better in the MU as a result.
Salem was just playing right into Dabuz's hands by trying to outplay him in neutral and play the spacing game. That's why Salem fell for nearly every forward smash Dabuz threw out.

 

[TDK]

Has Salem landed a Witch Time all day?

 

[Fenny]

Yeah I think so too.

He really needs to put on the pressure more to stop Dabuz from getting up his wall. Zack's overwhelming offense is more suited against it as a result, since Luma becomes virtually a non-factor.

Has Salem landed a Witch Time all day?

Yeah, just very far and between.

 

[Minordeth]

Welp, Tsu is eating Zero's cloud with these mid percent combos. Now up 2-0.

EDIT: Haha okay Zero. Pulling that Captain Falcon out. And winning.
