>When you're the only Hyrule character not to make top 64 at Hyrule saga and the only one of the bottom 4 to not have a top 32 at a major or a top 10 PGR win

(Ven and Onpu both got 65th)

ven got 25th at SML: Battle for Vegas. Other than that, her results are pretty barren in recent times in comparison to the other two super heavies (who are going off this tourney).

Can't wait to try out the new Zelda in Ultimate.

 

[Iridium]

Bask 3xA 3-2 Meteor to be one of TWO remaining Toon Links (Sigma being the other).

Sigma 3-2 Phoenix in another TL vs. Sonic game 5 set to avoid 49th place.

Ally 3-1 Captain Zack to make top 32! They teamed together, so I can only imagine how that felt.

 

[JustCallMeJon]

Chag beat Void 3-2!

 

[Iridium]

Did anybody note sonicmega eliminating Aperture at 65th, 2-1?

 

[Devil G.]

ANTi 3 - 1 zaki

 

[Lord Dio]

whoaahhhhhhh anti went inon zaki big time

 

[The_Bookworm]

whoaahhhhhhh anti went inon zaki big time

I am honestly surprised that zaki even took a game. Then again, ANTi's ZSS is not Nairo's or Marss's ZSS.

Edit: Now he has to fight the winner of falln vs Captain Zack. RIP him.

 

[Lord Dio]

ugggghhhhhh whyyyyyyy did komo have to fight larry ;_;

 

[Guido65]

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.

That's because toon link is absurdly overrated and really not that great of a character. I'm amazed he's been overhyped for so long.

Edit: toon link ryu is also terrible for toon link surprised that was only a 3-2.

 

[Iridium]

Darkshad 3-2 Sigma to eliminate him at 33rd, and barely move on to top 32. All of the Toon Links are gone.

SDX 3-1 Mr E (?) to eliminate him at 33rd, and make top 32.

Ummmmmmm, Mr. R 3-0 Nairo in top 32. He needs to win Hyrule Saga after this.

[The_Bookworm]

Mekos 3-1 over Tyroy. Now he has to face the winner of Salem vs Shuton. RIP

 

[The_Bookworm]

Light 3-1 Nairo
Nairo out at 17th.

Is this Civil War v2?!?!?

 

[Lord Dio]

what the actual ****
light beat nairo?!
WHAT THE ****

 

[Iridium]

Apparently, Nairo just lost to Light to place 17th. Not a good way to end the weekend.

 

[MercuryPenny]

just watched dabuz 3-0 elegant and i wish rosa never existed

 

[Iridium]

SDX 3-0 Darkshad to move on in top 32.

 

[Yonder]

just watched dabuz 3-0 elegant and i wish rosa never existed

Considering Elegant has never beaten Dabuz and they have played numerous times with the same result, idk why he doesn't make a counter pick exclusively for him. Luigi vs Rosa is unwinnable.

 

[Iridium]

Captain Zack 3-0 Zaki to end his run at 17th. Still a huge accomplishment regardless.

 

[The_Bookworm]

The matchup is just as bad, or arguably even worse, than Rosa vs Ness. XD
A reason why I think Rosa has the most dominant matchup in the game.

Captain Zack basically used Zaki for a combo video. OML
The set ended the same way their last encounter ended: the giant fist.

 

[Iridium]

ANTi 3-1 Kameme to make top 8! This has been a good tourney for both players regardless.

VoiD 3-1 Raito to eliminate him at 17th. The Japanese players are really falling like crazy now.

 

[MercuryPenny]

captain zack 3-1 void

unfortunate performance from the dude who won smash n splash less than a month ago. mad respect for shushing the crowd tho

 

[NotLiquid]

MKLeo really gonna get the shieldbreaker on Elegant twice in the same set

This is the worst timeline

 

[Iridium]

MkLeo gets two shield break punishes against Elegant to take the set 3-2, continuing in his losers run!

Also, in losers, SDX 3-1 Light to eliminate him at 13th.

 

[The_Bookworm]

The MKLeo vs Elegant set felt like it should've been one sided in Leo's favor, but Elegant managed to make some clutch plays, especially at the end of the fourth game (and Leo missing a few punishes lol). The salt from Elegant in the end of the set though.

 

[Wintermelon43]

SDX just made it to top 8 and I literally didn't know he existed until today lol

Speaking of top 8, anyone know what time it's starting?

 

[Frihetsanka]

SDX's run so far is pretty wild, with set wins vs Ac, Mr. E, DarkShad, Maister, Light, and Kameme to make top 8.

 

[Yonder]

SDX's run so far is pretty wild, with set wins vs Ac, Mr. E, DarkShad, Maister, Light, and Kameme to make top 8.

He's my last hope in this tournament after Raitos crushing winner's loss.D:

Go SDX!

 

[Ordeaux26]

Salem just lost to MKLeo 1-3 to get 9th

but to be honest he pretty much fell into this position thank to a series of upsets like Genesis 5

 

[Iridium]

Well, Cosmos 3-2 Shuton in a set that could have been more easy for him to make top 8. All of Japan is out now, and now I will focus on wanting to see Mr. R break the curse.

2GG: Hyrule Saga Top 8
Winners
ANTi vs. Dabuz
Mr. R vs. Tweek

Losers
Cosmos [Dabuz] vs. SDX [Dabuz, like Cosmos.]
MkLeo (?) [Zaki,＼(^_^)／] vs. Captain Zack [Ally]

I need to see Mr. R take this. I must send him my energy.

 

[The_Bookworm]

This tournament in general is absolute wack.

1. At 17th has a solo Dedede, Lucas, and Game & Watch.
2. Elegant took his MKLeo set closer than it should've.
3. This is SDX's first top 8 appearance.
4. Mr. R in winner's = a chance to break the curse + a chance for Sheik to win a major after 1.1.5 a second time

MkLeo also had to end most of Mexico in his losers run, specifically Javi and Chag.

LETS GO ZACK

i know what a amazing tournament so much variety so much upsets so many crazy moments

I personally try to avoid such tournaments because it keeps playing with my heart. XD

is this a joke or are you serious

 

[The_Bookworm]

is this a joke or are you serious

I'm kinda two-sided on it. When such things happen, it is all I think about it all day and nothing else. I make big assumptions on what will happen next, then I run the possibility of it occurring differently in my head, and how public opinion/the meta will change.

It just keeps me stressed up. All of this is most likely just a me problem, but still... it doesn't hurt to relax once and awhile. The top 8 in this tournament seems somewhat generic so it is a bit of a change of pace. Still looking at that saga curse though.

 

[TDK]

I come home and Dabuz is getting murdered by Tweek

it's a rough life
