    Leo focusing on 1 guy instead of 5 different sword characters is helping him out a ton. When he's locked in he looks like he can beat anyone.

      Byleth / Joker with a potential Rob / Aegis for matchup checks feels like a good roster.
      But there's a reason to call the latter two Matchup Checks.

      The timing was funny because a few minutes prior he was watching Bloom v Oryon. And Bloom was constantly crouching under Wolf laser that set! He used a lot of run up crouch into d-tilt too, it was a huge part of his neutral
      I think Leo uses crouch the best, especially for hurtbox shifting, but other players definitely use it well too

The crouching and walk movement, overall patience, and ability to enter MK sexo mode (aka doesnt get hit for 2 full minutes and gets himself a 2 stock lead) is gonna mean he makes a mean comeback in 2024

    Leo is returning to form. I'm not just saying this because of his results--I'm purely referring to how his gameplay looks. Watching him in this tournament, if it wasn't for nerfed Palutena and buffed Cloud, I could've easily mistaken it for 2019 gameplay.

  • @cullenhutchison6528
    @cullenhutchison6528 Před 5 měsíci +18

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like Raflow uses a ProGCC based on the cord and the GameCube controller icon on the disconnect screen. I guess it wasn't reliable enough when it counted...
    And it was indeed the TO's decision to drop the stock, not the player's. I agree with that policy as it's the only way to make it truly fair and doesn't leave room for players to face public criticism for their decision. The TOs might face such criticism, but as a TO myself, taking that is just part of the job.

    @aidenzorn8322 Před 5 měsíci +2

    Letting limit run out is probably better than using limit blade beam in this matchup. Since Joker can use counter to either get Arsene for basically free or reflect it with minimal risk if he has Arsene, there is basically no benefit to it. The exception would be that it forces Joker to be ready for the option at longer ranges when Cloud has limit, but the opponent should always be ready to react to blade beam as soon as the sword man turns blue.
    Not saying it’s the best use of limit to let it run out, but no risk no reward is better than high risk low reward.

    I wasn’t a Leo fan at his prime; I hated having one person win everything. As time has passed though, I’ve learned to appreciate his Joker more and more. A good Leo dub I can be excited for is something I’ve waited a while for, hopefully he can put himself back on the map for top 5 again. I do also like how much it looks like his Joker has improved, I love the gun chips he’s been doing since last year’s Genesis and I always felt he didn’t use Nair enough in the past for how good the move is.

    You know Mkleo fell off when we celebrate his first major win of 2024 😂😂😂. Tbh, I'd tell people to not make a big deal out of it if it were me.

      I think it's pretty disingenuous to say Leo "fell off." His results definitely did, but I don't think it's because he started playing significantly worse or anything. Everyone else just got really freaking good. You discredit the entire top level scene when you say dumb shit like this.

      I think people also underestimate the Arsene nerf as well that and the fact that when Leo was winning everything constantly with joker, none of the super broken dlc characters were released.

      @@trombonegamer14there’s a difference between saying he fell off vs he’s washed. Falling off is a correct term to use, he’s still insanely good but no longer at the top. But he is NOT washed, he’s still probably the most fundamentally sound player on the planet in my opinion.
