ZENITH 2014 - Aug 2-3 - Brooklyn, NY

[Battlecow]

I applied to commentate already, I'm practicing on random muted koroshiyo friendlies in my room as we speak

 

[rjgbadger]

And I'm practicing muting zenith videos by watching apex 2013

 

[KeroKeroppi]

I applied to commentate already, I'm practicing on random muted koroshiyo friendlies in my room as we speak

such a good idea

there aren't higher level vids out there

 

[Annex]

Pleasantly surprised to see that Annex is registered

And if I could be so honored as to have Kero the Mother****ing Great 5-stock me in friendlies the plasma will be worth it

 

[Han Solo]

Kero's fox

People mention Kero's fox a lot? Why? This isn't a "fox sucks" thing. I'm genuinely curious.

 

[Herbert Von Karajan]

Kero's fox vs Battlecow on DL

THE REMATCH

Battlecow plz commentate. Don't let stranded anywhere near the mic

I actually think stranded should commentate if he does it with me

Also, IF YOU ARE USING AN ALT, PM ME SO I CAN SEED YOU RIGHT. I'll keep your identity secret.
Speaking of seeding, battlecow, are you still super rusty?

 

[Sedda]

Because Bcow lost against Kero's fox in an online tourney fairly recently.

What's wrong? Why are you being so self-conscious

 

[Cobrevolution]

"kero's fox"

 

[Combo Blaze]

**** yeah early morning top 4 and pools.

edit: oh doubles jajajaja, also didnt see the if part for 1st pool.

 

[KeroKeroppi]

yeah that was all a joke

i've never played in an online tourney LOL

 

[Maliki]

Stranded + Bcow on commentary

 

[Sedda]

yeah that was all a joke

i've never played in an online tourney LOL

wut? werent you under an alias?

 

[Cobrevolution]

that was revealed as a joke like 4 posts after he said that

 

[Sedda]

damn. my life is a lie

 

[AtotheZ]

I enjoy watching Kero's fox

 

[Battlecow]

No, I've been playing online and with some competitivish champaign folks. I'm in pretty good shape. Not gonna like recommend myself or anything to try and get a higher seed but yeah--I'm as good or bad as ever.

 

[Nintendude]

Reg closes in like 2 days and tons of people haven't registered yet. Let's go guys!

 

[LLDL]

Not entering smash 64 anymore, but i'll be there with my controller if you guys want to play me!

 

[rjgbadger]

wut? werent you under an alias?

heroic weasel was already confirmed fireblaster

 

[Fireblaster]

Except that's wrong and I've proved to multiple people that I'm not whoever that is

 

[rjgbadger]

ok

10oks

1ok

 

[Sedda]

Yeah I could've sworn that it was Kero, but I guess I lost interest in that thread.

@ Fireblaster are you doing any commentating at Zenith? I liked your commentary on the videos from that one recent tournament with the COBR CAM (I think it was you). You could make a good team with someone like jimmyjoe (let him do most of the talking if you want), because you can provide concrete frame info whenever needed instead of having someone else talk about Pika being invincible during his electric attacks lolz

 

[Cobrevolution]

is @KnitePhox bringing his recording setup and commentary equipment like last year? apparently stranded's broke cuz he's a *****. but hopefully @ Herbert Von Karajan got his to work too. ideally we'll be able to get practically everything recorded, as well as strimmed.

 

[Nintendude]

I wouldn't count on anything outside of bracket being streamed (but on the flip side I think more of bracket can get streamed this year), so the more recording setups the better.

Did you enter 64?

 

[Cobrevolution]

so we should stream our own pools matches and then we'll be gucci with bifuteki or ct for top24 and top8?

 

[Nintendude]

That's what I'm hoping for. The streams are one thing I really don't have much of a hand in.

And yeah I'm gonna enter.

 

[Maliki]

They made a hype trailer for zenith. It was actually pretty cool.
But its all about melee so lame.

I have no idea what I would even have to do to be allowed to commentate or anything.

 

[clubbadubba]

last year at zenith we were originally planned to stream only top 8 or something, but then we ended up streaming on gimr's stream all day with random players rotating in on commentary. Maybe we'll get that again.

 

[Nintendude]

I think Jimmy Joe can only come on Sunday, so Saturday commentary is probably open for whoever feels they'd represent the community in a good light.

 

[Cobrevolution]

yeah, jj is only available only on sunday. i like rotating commentators, it lets you develop good partnerships and chemistry, and can lead to really memorable moments (ie komo).

 

[Battlecow]

I have no idea what I would even have to do to be allowed to commentate or anything.

Message TheRapture, he's in charge of commentary

 

[Combo Blaze]

top 3 region rep atm
NY 12 players
NJ 5 players
IL 5 players (battlecow isn't in the doc yet so +1)
cummon east coast step it up. tell those randoms in FU to show up or something

 

[SheerMadness]

Alright scrubs. Here are my predictions.

1. Boom
2. LD/Wizzy
3. LD/Wizzy

IMO anyone not named Boom is going to have to beat LD or Wizzy if they wanna top 3.

 

[Battlecow]

LD and wizzy have to be like the new-school faves

IDK how much time wizzy's been putting into 64 lately but if it's much at all and if he's been improving at anything like his old pace he oughtta have 2nd locked

A$ could beat them, maybe kero as well (IDK how much he's improved either he doesn't play online) and killer has what I'd call an OK but not great shot. Is Star King confirmed? I actually like his chances too, for whatever reason.

Right below those guys you have the Z, Firo, and maybe stranded (big question mark next to him) to round out the top 8. Is it possible that fireblaster could make a run? Nintendude seems like an outside bet since he's been so busy being some kind of melee hotshot. What other complete murderers are confirmed?

This thing is staaaaaaacked

 

[Cobrevolution]

you summarized my article

 

[Fireblaster]

Is it possible that fireblaster could make a run?

No. You people need to cut this **** out.

 

[clubbadubba]

I would like to commentate, I think I did a pretty good job at apex.

predictions:

1 boom
2 clubba
3 a$
4 kero
5 wizzy
6 ld
7 killer
8 nintendude

 

[Sangoku]

You switched number 1 and number 2 imo
