Has the Nintendo special announcement already happened?
That was bearable, but his Olimar was pretty disgusting to me.
Why would you do that?

Yeah, me too, he seems like a really cool guy. And not only that, but the fact that he gave out all those hotel rooms was really great of him.
I really wanted to like SMASH4 competitive and people all been saying wait till apex to see some crazy shit, sadly I'm pretty disappointed and the variety of minute to minute scenarios really let me down, I really hope this game gets enough time to be all cooked up for Evo, big ups to Zero though, noone can discount the fact that man has been putting mad work not just in Smash4 but every game he strives to be good at.
He's extremely aggressive and knows how to beat out shields with empty hops, and in general just knows his match-ups. Olimar is a good counter against cookie-cuter Diddy, and you kinda saw how all of the Diddys outside of ZeRo fell off to the rest of the roster, but Dabuz's campy game just can't hold against Diddy's rush down.
Sheik's lack of kill power is why Mr.R lost to Dabuz.

There is no Nintendo announcement.

They were basically chanting for the game to hurry up and end. Could be related to that.
diddy kong is getting nerfed, no longer has any aerial moves.
That is how Olimar is built? Have you even played Smash 4? Serious question, cause you seem oblivious to how the characters play especially against Diddy. Diddy's upairs come out almost immediately. That is why he can juggle like that.

Watch the doubles finals for entertaining Smash 4 from Apex. That set was crazy.
Probably won't shut the hell up about Smash 4 taking forever or something

i hate all the anger at Smash4.
just make separate events.

1:40 actually, IIRC Melee top 8 should've started at 9:00 PM EST.
He might be a cool dude but Smash 4 has way better commentators. Anyone that was on stream yesterday would have been preferable.
Seems like some people weren't cheering because Zero won, but because Smash4 is finished
Is this a dictatorship? Kappa

"The melee doubles bracket ran four hours overtime, the singles bracket still hasn't finished when it was supposed to be done two hours before the Wii U finals started. Wii U doubles also ran overtime. Only the Wii U bracket ran on time today, and only because they completed half of it yesterday night"
I thought it was listed for 10 EST? Oh well. That's pretty bad then, lol.
But yeah, I was hoping Smash 4 would be more interesting come APEX, but overall it's been kind of boring. Pools had some good moments, but it's just not interesting enough.

Nothing this commentator says is insightful, some of it is wrong, and he won't shut up about how great Zero is.
Not a good display of Smash Bros Wii U overall. There were like, 4 characters and all of them are considered top 5. Don't think Olimar counts because he was specifically used as a Diddy counter.

no, and there never was gonna be
there was a "special announcement" scheduled to be nowbefore the venue change happened, not sure if it will still happen
but don't expect anything big
DO EXPECT: MANG0 VS LEFFEN MOST HYPE MATCH OF THE MILLENIUM

Oh yes no more Sky
lol even though diddy seems OP, give the game time to evolve, i promise that diddy wont be looked at the same a year from now (with or without nerfs).
The games went pretty fast IMO. It's just the after-game coaching and other things that slowed it down. Well aside from the time-outs earlier, which was still pretty entertaining.
For a first time big event for Smash 4, it was pretty good. Top 16 had a variety of characters, we saw a lot of strategies and not just hoo-hahs all throughout, and has a lot of entertaining moments. Can't wait for its intro at Evo!

Some people also probably chanted "MELEEEEE" like last year. Sigh.
It's not the community figureheads but people who are just ignorant as hell and poisoning the well.
I wasn't implying anything other than the fact it was supposed to start at 9:00 PM EST.
I'm no Melee player and I love Sm4sh.
Why is everybody here so defensive?
Yeah, I play Sonic and tried playing it at least 8-12 hours a week (a lot more in the first month), but lately I dunno.
I get that Olimar is the boring to watch character in Smash 4 like some match ups can be in Melee, but I feel like Olimar vs anyone is boring. I just think he gets rewarded too much for playing Safe and his safe options are all defensive.
I don't think everyone needs to like every character or they automatically don't play the game, lol.

it looks like he put in some real work to be able to do this. he's just not cut out for this work. i feel like i've digested a dangerous dose of artificial hype over the past few hours. would've been fine in small doses, like if they rotated the casters.
Pretty much. Bo5 is just wayyyy too much.

I honestly do not believe this for even a second. We've pretty much seen the metagame move mostly in one direction, and that is favoring characters with safe aerials and throw setups. The most that will happen is Diddy will no longer be #1, and maybe we'll see more Pikachu. Characters like Ganondorf, Ike, and Bowser will still be screwed, Zelda will settle into bottom tier, Yoshi might move up or down, and everyone else will pretty much stay as they are.

Did you see what we had to sit/listen to for the past 3 hours?
;D
I know lol. I expect the game to be much more interesting as people find more ways to counter some of the more spacing-heavy characters. Heavy hitting characters are so much more fun to watch, but I think people just aren't confident enough with them yet.

Alright, back from the Super Bowl - which singles Melee matches are the must watches from the last few hours?
The community is very toxic sadly. Instead of enjoying the games people are super focused on making Sm4sh vs Melee wars and stuff.
When will they announce that there's no announcement?

sorry man, but it's frustrating wanting to watch and discuss some Smash4 when all you hear is
"fuck Smash4, when's Melee?"
"cancel Smash4"
well you know.
