The Hyrule Saga discussion thread (Ft. Triforce Friday!)

[Lord Dio]

eon 2-0 sigma
was a pretty fun match to watch though, that 48% combo sigma got was insane

 

[Iridium]

You know what? Watching Squad Assault will be way less depressing than watching singles, at least for now. I want to see T make top 32, but I really don't know what will happen when he reaches the losers top 32 qualifiers.

 

[Lord Dio]

ally 2-0 ri-ma
all these tinks dying out here............

 

[Yonder]

Elegant and stroder take doubles 2-1 vs samsora and Cosmos.

Elegant has taken two majors in a row...for doubles.

People need to acknowledge Luigi is upper high tier...in doubles. A lot of weaknesses are mitigated. Mainly approaching.

 

[RonNewcomb]

poor T got 2-0'ed by javi

Was it bad? T is a very emotional player, so if he's down on himself then he's already done.

 

[TDK]

Fun fact: more Robins made it out of pools here than at FE saga, with three compared to FE saga's whopping... zero!

Appreciate the work you put in formatting that whole list; that's a lot of dedication!

Lol. Poor Concon. Winner verses Mkleo. He just got mangled in bracket luck

L3 winners is gonna be a bayo death trap. Yikes.

That's weird. I saw Nail playing on stream against Ven. Does he use Bayo, or is there another player with a similar tag?

Edit: Yeah, Nail has a he uses, so that's 3 Links, not 2.

 

[The_Bookworm]

The upsets are real in this tournament. A lot more of them in comparison to previous majors this year.

It is a shame that half of those upsets are not caused by Hyrule characters. lol

 

[The_Bookworm]

If BestNess defeats Navi, he has to fight Sigma.

I want both of them to move on.


On a side note, what it up with the Ness players getting the tougher opponents early in bracket? This is more prevalent in Smash'N'Splash, but still: what kind of bracket luck is that?

There is also MrConCon vs. MkLeo most likely for 65th, and MkLeo vs. Charlie for 49th. Kameme is also projected to lose to MkLeo to place 33rd. This seeding has not been holding well. T most likely will have to deal with Tyroy, according to the projection, assuming Tyroy loses to Samsora.

 

[MarioManTAW]

Also, MarioManTAW , Meru did not make it out, but Ven and Onpu.

Meru did make it out, he's facing Cagt in Pool I1, but he may or may not be using Zelda.

People made me think he was using Peach only. Well, good to know.

Nail is a Link, he's ranked 3rd in Inland Empire. He almost beat Ven on stream.

 

[Iridium]

I just realized Marss and Komorikiri , if they meet, will have to play for 49th place. 49th. This is depressing me beyond belief right now.

 

[Lord Dio]

Was it bad? T is a very emotional player, so if he's down on himself then he's already done.

is about the first game, but it looked like he was struggling game 2, he was trying to get too many grabs, came decently close to getting the game but lost it.

I just realized Marss and Komorikiri , if they meet, will have to play for 49th place. 49th. This is depressing me beyond belief right now.

according to projections.....Marss and komo fight for 49th, winner iirc fights Raito for 25th, winner of that fights elegant for 17th, winner of that fights Leo for 13th, winner of that fights either tweek or salem for 9th

forget calling it a shark tank, losers at this tournament is a ****ing sharknado

 

[Iridium]

I have to say. this schedule has been very strange, at least looking at doubles. I really wanted to see T and Sigma in doubles as a team, but because only top 8 was streamed, that will never happen. Doubles was good, but there was a lot of teams I did not get to see.

 

[TDK]

Rickles 2-1 Razo
Rickles 2-1 K9Sbruce

Ganon in top 64!

 

[Iridium]

Raito 3-2 Larry Lurr to make top 32!
Silverfox094 2-1 Sinnyboo242 (97th)

 

[Devil G.]

zaki 3 - 0 Rags

 

[JustCallMeJon]

Zaki 3-0 Up and Coming Player, Rags and now moves on winners top 64!

 

[The_Bookworm]

Zaki 3-0 Up and Coming Player, Rags and now moves on winners top 64!

Rags looked lost in that set, sort of like his set against Elegant. The fact that zaki has an easier seeding than other players after his upset against MKLeo is going to help in the long run.

Also, the Ganons are going wild in the loser's bracket.

 

[Iridium]

zaki 3 - 0 Rags

Yeah. He just got top 32! A KING DEDEDE.

Jdizzle 2-0 Charlie (?) for 65th.

 

[The_Bookworm]

Yeah. He just got top 32! A KING DEDEDE.

Jdizzle 2-0 Charlie (?) for 65th.

The upsets are too strong in this tournament.

 

[Iridium]

The upsets are too strong in this tournament.

Definitely. Also, Komorikiri 3-0 Marss to eliminate him at 49th. Also, T is still alive! He has to win one more set to make top 32! I will check on Ri-ma and Sigma.

Rags looked lost in that set, sort of like his set against Elegant. The fact that zaki has an easier seeding than other players after his upset against MKLeo is going to help in the long run.

The fact that Zaki hasn't ran into a bayo yet is nothing short of a miracle for him

 

[Wintermelon43]

That was a heartbreaking end to the set.

Mr. R 3-2 DSS

 

[Devil G.]

Mr. R 3 - 2 DSS

DSS took Mr. R to game 5 after switching to GaW on game 3.

 

[The_Bookworm]

Mekos ends Rags' run at 33rd in a 3-1 victory.

 

[Iridium]

Zaki is now guaranteed at least 17th at Hyrule Saga, and even further if he beats ANTi (oh no). This is a big deal.

 

[Devil G.]

Maister 3 - 1 Diablo

 

[JustCallMeJon]

Just wanna let you know, the clip of Zaki beating Leo has now over 380K viewers, the largest viewed clip in Twitch Smash 4. This shows how unexpected and iconic Smash 4 can get.

 

[Devil G.]

Shuton 3 - 2 Light

 

[TDK]

Tyroy 3-2 T

I hate Bayo

 

[The_Bookworm]

Tyroy 3-2 T

View attachment 149986
I hate Bayo

I bet it took you awhile to reply because you were finding that image. lol
33rd is still a solid placing for him though.

Edit: If it makes you feel better, one of the top Bayos, Lima, is out at 33rd as well. Courtesy of MKLeo beating him 3-2.

 

[The_Bookworm]

BestNess is out at 65th. It was either him or Sigma, so it would be a sad turn of events either way. A 2-1 victory for Sigma.

Seriously, why does the brackets put the Ness players against the top/super-challenging players so early? It is becoming ridiculous.

The Toon Links are not doing so well either. Ri-ma, Biddy, Das, Wormy, Zan and L.U.C.Y. are all out at 65th. TLOrEo is also out at 97th. Jdizzle is out at 49th.

 

[Lord Dio]

Holy **** there's a lot to catch up on
RICKLES BEAT RAZO AND K9 HOLY ****
RAITO BEAT LARRY OH NO HOLY ****
ZAKI BEAT RAGS
CHARLIE IS OUT AT 65TH HOLY ****
Komo beat marss, thank god
SHUTON BEAT LIGHT HOLY ****
TYROY ELIMINATED T OH NO HOLY ****

sorry, got back from incredibles 2 and catching up, wow

 

[Aaron1997]

Hey guys...… If Raito or Zaki win their winner's set's, either or will be guaranteed top 8 winner's side.
