  • this tournament was incredible and the top 8 was esspecily good, a shame that so many matchups were off stream but its tough when you got a top 8 sunday, and we still had a whole bunch of bangers, and I think this top 8 reflects what we will see more of in 2024, cant wait

    Zomba beat Sonix 3-0 on winner semis and start a mad trash talk
    Zomba then proceeds to beat Spargo on winner finals and double down on his trash talk
    Zomba then wins Genesis and triple down his trash talk
    Most funny part is that he pointed out that most Smashers dont have a driver license , and its so true cuz back then Light used that as an excuse of "I dont practice with Marss cuz we are 2 hours apart and I dont drive"

      Also the only thing nerdy about Zomba is his voice. I feel like it's silly to say someone's nerdy for one quality. If one quality is enough to make someone nerdy does that mean that everyone who wears glasses is a nerd?

    - Japan and NA's skill gap is not that far. Good luck guys!!! I believe you!!!

      I'm assuming you're talking about the United States specifically when you say that Shadic's top 5 NA, especially since you didn't mention Spargo or Sonix who are definitely still the 2 best NA players.
      Even then, if we're only talking about the US, I'd put Shadic at 6th behind Zomba, Tweek, Light, Dabuz, and MuteAce. He's improved a lot over the last 6 months though, so I'm fully expecting him to be top 5 US by the end of the year (assuming he doesn't have a MuteAce Japan trip level dip in results).
      Also just want to throw in there that I agree with your other 2 points.

  • @kacheechang4667

    I want to say that zomba won by his insane survivability and initiation. Rob hard mus are ones where he gets combo'ed to death or 70+ percent. characters like luigi, bayo, and gnw absolutely destroy rob when they get their hands on him. Diddy, fox, aegis, cloud, and sonic don't really do that. They beat you in neutral and keep you in disadvantage for 10 years but rob is heavy and has a good recovery to stay alive long enough for zomba to find an opening and catch like a jump and get the zombair and kill them at 70%. Its honestly insane how consistent he got those zombairs. Zomba is so good at surviving and initiating that you need to cheese out a stock against him to win.
    shoutouts loaf for beating nietono tilde and nearly beating kola, Minnesota pride and tweek cause even though every bad mu he was supposed to face got upsetted(thanks niko, tarik, and shadic) he got a pretty harsh losers run. riddles, tea, and light is definitely a tough diddy bracket but he pulled through and that game 4 vs sonix was a heartbreaker as a tweek fan.

    Zomba is nothing like leffen let me explain. Zomba talks shit maybe to gather attention. This also makes the game a bit more hype is kinda like post fights in boxing and ufc where fighters stir the pot. Making it a little intriguing to watch. Notice how zomba always shakes people hands even after he talks shit still showing respect. Leffen in the other hand is just plain toxic. He gets involve in people life outside the game making false accusations. Some incriminating and some that involve harassing. The other thing about leffen is that when he losses he becomes a cry baby. To the point that he wants that player ban or he wants rules to be set in the game of a limit perhaps of how many times a player should jump. Conclusion Zomba just talks shit to push his villain character without hurting people. I would like to your thoughts do you agree with this comment?

    gluto should have lost every single set he played in top 64, he did not play like a top 5 player, kola had him beat game 4 and decided to air dodge down instead of up b, fall after him and win the set, and mvd missed an up air confirm game 5 that would have killed
    Aside from me being mad as a european cause gluto played like really bad all day long, europe still got a few upsets with the most notable ones being raflow beating miya, flow beating hero and bassmage, fendeavor over kurama(how?) and oryon beating shirayuki, that and there were 10 eu players in top64 ( 6 french) so overall a good event for europe
    I've noticed this a while ago but bloom doesn't perform well anymore, at some point he looked like europe's next big thing and second best player but raflow has consistently been the same or better than him and sisqui is more likely to get top 8 even though samus has roadblocks such as olimar and bayo ( though yaura beat bloom at the prelocal and I wouldn't be surprised if sisqui studies the vod enough to be a bit more competitive next time)
    Weird thing happened, raflow beat miya but not maister, I feel like people are sleeping on maister way too much, I've felt that way for a long time as well, he is very much capable of making top 8 at any event and I'd argue he's better at certain aspects of the game than miya, notably neutral which is less important than advantage, thus miya being better than him overall,if maister implemented miya's way of ledgetrapping he could become very scary
    It was one of the best top 8 in a while ( surprising, it might have to do with the fact that there was no steve and gnw, naaah, couldn't be ), refreshing to see tea make it this far after so long though props to tweek for beating him, especially in that mu, didn't think he would win, also zomba was playing so well, it felt like everything was working for him, even against sonix he played so fast it didn't even feel like sonic was the faster character
