- Best of 3 Set :
Another huge milestone on our journey towards winning a super major with link and improving at the game we love.
Sheik is by far link's hardest matchup. I generously give it an 80 : 20 chance
( sheik favored ) it is incredibly difficult.
Krudo isn't just an incredible sheik and a phenomenal player. He is currently ranked #31 on the 2023 melee global power rankings and he is regarded as a top 20 level player in the entire world.
Not only this, but he has the most link experience out of any other sheik due to having Kuya ( 3rd best link in the world ) as a consistent training partner for nearly 6 years.
In my opinion this is a historical melee set that will change how the link vs sheik matchup is played in the future. Truly a legendary set. Enjoy!
Shoutouts to NathanSandwich and TreytheTrashman for their stellar commentary. Loved their commentary block! You can check them out more here.

Thank you everyone for watching and for your support. I'm super proud of how I did and this is only the beginning! Such a fitting set for " Genesis "
Shoutouts to Krudo for such an amazing set. He was absolutely amazing to fight and is such a great competitor. He also seems like a really cool person. Can't wait for our rematch!
Also absolutely loved Trey and Nathansandwich's commentator block. Highly recommend anyone to watch their block. It's so good!!
Till next.

Love ya buddy :D - Funny enough I just invited to you one of my tournaments like the same time you edited this!
Nice to have commentators who respect both players and characters, streams where they spend the set down talking link is such a bummer. Super hype
Yeah I totally agree with you. The set was great but I think the commentator duo was a key factor in making it such a legendary set. Nathansandwich and TreytheTrashman really made this one special for me. They are incredible
I’ve been waiting for this to drop!!!
I've been waiting for you to comment homie! Thanks for stopping by. I'll hit you up online soon
Dude this was an amazing set. Such a close match. You'll get em next time!
legend bro! you are an inspiration to the new generation of links!
Was shocked with the percents and attacks Shiek could crouch cancel. Keep up the good fight.
Yeah her cc is really good. Krudo was great at utilizing it to. Against a sheik who knows how to cc I can't get openings till she's at like 40 - 50% and even then she can cc all link's weak hits. Such a hard but fun matchup to solve
Hell yeah RedX, looking real good and keeping it close against top players, onwards and upwards!
Absolutely fantastic job, I'm excited to see you keep grinding
Let's freaking go dude
I can see Link having a renaissance sometime in the near future likewise to DK.
Me to! Especially with what I have coming on the way for us soon. So excited to share it with y'all soon.
The hero of time will prevail, and you are the chosen one Red X
such a sick set, you give me a lot of motivation to keep pushing Link n go hard
good stuff the progress is great to see
You've got this next year RedX 💯💯💯
Thanks Jax but don't sell yourself short. Your mario is absolute 🔥 in my mind you def a contender for it next year to. That and Waddles. We are the new Nintendo flagship trio on the rise
Amazing play thanks for the upload!
Always love seeing your Link in action! It was so close. Krudo is a monster too.
Krudo was AMAZING but it's a huge confidence boost to me that I was able to keep up with him. I can't wait till I master the new strats I've come up with thanks to this set. Link and I are gonna be leveling up like crazy
amazing link play dude
gorgeous melee
7:02 that was sick!
Absolute beast, awesome set
I cant tell if RedX is using the bomb slide-off because he wants to style or because its optimal. In any case, the bomb plays are hype and I love it.
It used to be to style but now it's like for mixup / it's a reallllly good edge steal technique. If you time it right sheik and marth can die at like 50%
10:08 Ok Morshu lmao
Great job bro keep it up
You fucking played that so well
kinda weird watching shiek go ham with projectiles for almost an entire game then hearing commentary talking about muh bigger stage means less projectiles for minutes and minutes
Dumb question, Is there a tutorial for how acid drop input is done?
Not a dumb question at all. People have been asking for it and I promise, it's on the way. Planning it to be a core vid I release after a couple others. Look forward to it.
I think you did really well given the overwhelming odds against you, as the commentators and you have mentioned (higher ranked opponent, losing matchup). I think praising Krudo for the sole reason of shining a light on how well you did can be very helpful for context/storyline, but it seems a little excessive/incomplete when it's said without context to the more important details of how you think the set went, (e.g. how prepared you felt, did you/he do anything especially good/bad, how you think the two of you played overall).
Thank you for the kind words and praise! Also, I appreciate your honesty.
Since you asked I'd say I could have beaten Krudo had I not fought him on the ground as much as I did during the battlefield and dreamland games. But I did not at the time think it would be as close as it was when starting the set.
I truly thought with all his link exp and how hard the matchup is that I would get washed but learn exactly what I needed to learn in order to make the matchup more doable for link.
However, during the battlefield game I was noticing that to my surprise my anti sheik strats I had come up with were not only effective on average sheik players but also top level players. ( and no not just sheik )
Since discovering this I've changed my focus to delving further into these strats and I'm already finding crazzzzy results.
What I've found legit might be the key link needs to be what I always believed him to be. S tier
( and possibly beyond )
Key things I feel krudo should have down for our rematch is the chaingrab on link ( its unbelievably free and creates a HUGE momentum swing )
He could also work on his bomb grabbing game ( like jmook with turnips ) and z catch them in the air or when they are on platforms. This I believe is the next level to countering the strats I have in mind. But we'll see how things play out.
and I think on the ground he played nearly perfect. I couldn't open him up at all and that's why he destroyed me on the ground during the battlefield game and during the dreamland game.
I was also very surprised he did not punish my grab with his own grab on pokemon cause that easily could have been the set ender on his part. ( it looked like he may have mis inputted his JC grab but im not sure )
I capitalized really well off of his mistake but on paper he should have had that game or at least an edgeguard opportunity.
Any other questions feel free to ask. I'm very open to sharing. I'm tired of link being viewed as a gimmick character.
Link can win a super major. I'm gonna do it and this set proves to me that my playstyle is winning me the sets not a lack of char knowledge or falling for link gimmicks on my opponent's side.
Good Play man.
Sheik's a pain.
This makes me feel like Link is the new DK. So sick

Whens your next tournament?
Most likely GOML
Welp plans changed. I went to Pat's House 4 instead. Not gonna be at GOML this year.

12:00 timestamp for later
My voice is still gone
Red is the man
Only up from here
Up together to new heights partner. They ain't ready for the upcoming waves RedX and Waddles are gonna make!
Genesis X is the most "red x" event ever
Hahaha glad someone else noticed. Pretty amazing coincidence me thinks.
Or could it be a...
Foreshadowing?
What's the point of pronouns on the screen if commentators are just gonna call individuals "they" regardless?
It really matters 💀
Bc they have no “pronouns sheet”. Calling they/them is much easier.
@erikeconomou6487 yes, it is offensive to not use the correct pronouns for someone.
@@HabitualJunctionsconcur with this statement as a trans women
as a way to address one or multiple individuals, does "they/them" not refer universally to all people regardless of gender?
commentator constantly calling you they/them... lol
Bro, they/them is a neutral term that can apply to anyone no matter what your pronouns are. Unless specifically asked to not call you they/them, as a commentator its easiest and potentially the most respectful to do so
Certified bruh moment
@@LogsBMjoe
Nah fr this is ridiculous
his pronouns are literally on the screen though@@LogsBM
