That hawkeye was ass

To be fair, Justin's Akuma anchor is ridiculous.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Flocker's Hawkeye vs Punisher's Hawkeye for the Bad Barton Championship

Spoiler

Chris G wins

 

[Revven]

I wanted a bracket reset for more hype but that's ok, Justin winning it is hype regardless.

Now for Braw-ResidentSleeper

 

[Dahbomb]

Man Justin bet all his money on that lvl3. It was not an optimum combo but it was the easiest kill combo and it allowed him to maintain momentum aka Wong factor.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Powerpuff Girls is on Cartoon Network, forget Brawl

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Get Coontail and what's his face on the mic and I will watch the whole top 8

 

[El Sloth]

Powerpuff Girls is on Cartoon Network, forget Brawl

That's mah jooooooint

 

[theprodigy]

Brawl singles hy-

 

[vocab]

I didnt watch chris lose in marvel, but I did watch him lose in AE and get brutally murdered in KOF. I bet he feels great.

[Skilotonn]

Flocker messed up a ton there, but I gotta say that the Wolverine comeback at the very end was commendable even though I'm not a huge Justin fan.

Flocker was so strong throughout the whole tournament only to mess up so bad at the very end like that.

Sounds like this isn't ChrisG's tournament.

brawl singles last year was hype, this top 8 though not so sure, too many mks. maybe esam will bring the hype lets see.

 

[Beckx]

I wonder if I can finish Broken Age pt 1 before Melee. I hear it's short.

 

[theprodigy]

more importantly: who's in top 8
because for Melee, unlike Evo it's Fox Puff Falco everywhere, with the occasional M2K Marth/Sheik

 

[Revven]

more importantly: who's in top 8
because for Melee, unlike Evo it's Fox Puff Falco everywhere, with the occasional M2K Marth/Sheik

For Melee? It's M2K, Mango, PP, Hbox, Leffen, Colbol, S0ft, and Fiction (in no particular order)

Definitely a lot more spacies but the hype will come from the Top 4 (M2K, PP, Hbox, and Mango) and not so much what characters they're playing.

Though again it would have been great if aMSa made it, seriously. I guarantee Colbol is going to meet an early end whereas aMSa would have made Top 8 way, way more interesting.

 

[theprodigy]

For Melee? It's M2K (Fox/Marth/Sheik), Mango (Fox/Falco?), PP (Falco/Marth?), Hbox (Puff), Leffen (Fox), Colbol (Fox), S0ft (Puff), and Fiction (Fox) (in no particular order)

Definitely a lot more spacies but the hype will come from the Top 4 (M2K, PP, Hbox, and Mango) and not so much what characters they're playing.

yeah I know what characters Melee top 8 is playing
asking for Brawl though

 

[soakrates]

Feels like the early 2000s again, what with Justin and Sanford dominating an east coast major.

Sanford was possessed in that set against Ricky though.

 

[Kimosabae]

Colbol's at Apex? Let's go SFL.

 

[Revven]

Oh, in the stream chat someone said it's:

Ally, M2K, ESAM, Nairo, ADHD, Vinnie, Tyrant, and Zero.

 

[K.Sabot]

Brawl singles? See you guys in 6 hours.

 

[theprodigy]

Oh, in the stream chat someone said it's:

Ally, M2K, ESAM, Nairo, ADHD, Vinnie, Tyrant, and Zero.

so:
MK/Snake
MK
Pikachu/ICs
MK
Diddy
ICs

ESAM/ADHD/Vinnie pls win

although there's roughly as many MKs in Brawl top 8 as there are Fox in Melee top 8

How was the character variety in the P:M tournament?

brawl bracket: http://challonge.com/apexbrawl

 

[commanderpepper]

I'm ready for some Smash.

 

[IntelliHeath]

How was the character variety in the P:M tournament?

more variety than Melee. However you have to consider the fact that P:M have 41 characters so there are more good characters than bad characters in P:M.

 

[Revven]

so:
MK/Snake
MK
Pikachu/ICs
MK
Diddy
ICs
MK
MK

ESAM/ADHD/Vinnie pls win

If you told me that was last year's Top 8, I'd believe you lol. (That's how bad it is).

 

[theprodigy]

shit ADHD and Vinnie gotta play each other first?
NOOOOOO

How was the character variety in the P:M tournament?

well:
1. Armada (Pit)
2. M2K (Fox/Mewtwo/Marth)
3. DEHF (Fox/Falco)
4. Rolex (Snake)
5. Fly Amanita (DDD)
5. Sethlon (Roy)
7. Ally (Ike)
7. Oracle (ROB)

in other words, much much better than Melee or Brawl, only repeat is Fox but neither player used him all the time

edit: oh shit Japanese commentary too!

Oh, nice. I was hoping Someone played Ivysaur, Charizard or Mario but the list variety is good.

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Damn, Salem went out to ADHD? I need to see that for sure, sad he didn't make it to the top though.

 

[Next]

Top 16 had an Ivy, I think. Not sure how far any Mario player got, though.

 

[ismk]

Interesting, the ClashTournament stream has Japanese commentary and Spooky's stream has English commentary.

 

[theprodigy]

I'd just like to point out both Melee and Brawl have 5 characters in top 8 (Fox/Marth/Sheik/Falco/Puff and MK/ICs/Snake/Diddy/Pikachu)

damn you Armada for passing on Melee singles and damn you Colbol

oh and list of unviable characters in Project M:


(Intelliheath: Chudat used Kirby)

edit: wait is all of Brawl top 8 best of 5?
please don't say yes

 

[vulva]

Just finished the AE top 8 VOD.

Jesus Sanford looked unstoppable.

List of characters that are used in Project M



I don't remember to see Olimar, Sonic, Kirby and Samus.

Hungrybox used both Jigglypuff and Olimar. Saw a Samus get bopped in pools. Definitely saw a Kirby.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Who the hell neutered Coontail??

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Holy shit, I hate meta v. meta but that second game was actually awesome.

 

[Revven]

No items, MK only, Smashville.

 

[theprodigy]

no items, Meta Knight only, Smashville

edit: DAMN YOU REVVEN

 

[Codeblue]

Who the hell neutered Coontail??

I was thinking the exact same thing. This is the first time I've seen him since last Apex and I thought the name was a mistake.

 

[Beckx]

WHAT

 

[theprodigy]

that was actually pretty hype
also good thing it's NOT best of 5

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Daaaamn, that was crazy good though

Brawl makes TTT2 and MK9 look like Divekick, speed-wise.
