Dabuz plays such a boring fucking Rosalina. It gets results but damn if it isn't the most boring thing to watch ever.

 

[Revven]

Pac-man seems to always be played as a runaway character, does he really have no good actual attacks? I think you should get good mileage out of your character's specials, but c'mon, you've got a big A button too.

His attacks are really slow, do pitiful damage, and are really unsafe (except Fair and Nair). He has to play keepaway/zoning.

 

[Gaston]

I can't wait to watch Melee finals in 6 months.

Does it start immediately after Sm4sh?

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I think Abadango should've changed characters Dabuz learned how to adapt to is Pac-Man.

Huh? I could've sworn Dabuz only had 1 stock.

 

[theprodigy]

I would say ResidentSleeper

but fuck yeah Rosalina wins! Eat a dick Pac-Man

 

[Codeblue]

Does it start immediately after Sm4sh?

"Immediately".

 

[Mistle]

man, so anticlimactic with time outs. i didn't mind the fights, but the time out really ruins it for me, even if nobody stalls.

 

[Anteo]

Did anyone saw that egg lay into egg toss? that was sick by wizzy

Pretty much, but they're all in to win. It's why pools are so entertaining.

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

i hate you rosa

i really, really hate you

 

[Matt Attack]

Timing out is kind of boring. :/

he played campy in brawl, so that style of play is transferring over to smash 4. it's how he, and a lot of other top brawl players, won in brawl for the last couple of years. they have absolutely no problem playing super defensive and going to time.

luckily, some other top players from brawl like m2k, ally and zero aren't about that life and go aggro as hell. I'm actually looking forward to seeing Zero's diddy.

Yea shit was insane. Right when he gets out wizzy has one laying for him. Wizzy needs more props, great at 64 and PM, decent at Melee too. He's like a fantastic jack of all trades at Smash.

edit: I love Wizzy's combos, but I think I like Taco's yoshi play more it's just so damn cool.

 

[J@hranimo]

Profound sadness, Abadango is out T_T

GO 6WX

 

[Jigolo]

Sm4sh is too long.

 

[Ultra Numb]

It's 8pm over there already... lol.

10pm Top8 Melee start?

Sm4sh is too long.

Agreed, way too long.

But personal preference I guess.

 

[SMgamer83]

I love Smash4. I really do. But that Pac vs. Rosalina match was awful. Pac really is hard countered by Rosalina. He should have character swapped.

I doubt Dabuz's gonna win against zero or m2k, going defensive isn't the way to go in smash 4.

 

[Pappasman]

Axe has been eliminated from Melee

 

[sciencerob]

I really only play smash 4 nowadays but damn.... if this match is the typical for the future of smash it makes me sad. :\

Timing out, 3 minutes+ per stock blah.

 

[Zyrox]

The Pac dream is dead ;_;
Of course the two annoying characters (imo) in losers advance, instead of the interesting ones. :/

Jeffrey Williamson ‏@Mortality_Axe 2m2 minutes ago
Lost to Sfat and Shroomed....
Very depressed....
Well... I have a lot of work to do

Poor Axe ;__;

It's really not typical

 

[StriKeVillain]

Empty chair battle.

What's going on over there?

 

[Kenturoxx]

This delay between matches is fucking horrible

 

[Spinosaurus]

He has a pocket Wario who is way better vs Rosa

Guessing he's not comfortable with the matchup as Wario tho

 

[SmackAttack]

Poor Axe ;__;

So it was right earlier
And Pac-Man lost too

 

[The Sarcastic Dude]

Forced jpg compression = likely shop.

And people say they want 3 stocks for this game. -_______-

Reminder: This is 2 stocks!!

I used to be one of those people. Not anymore...

 

[SMgamer83]

I think if anything, this proves that to play top level Smash 4, you need to know more than 1 character. Running up against a hard counter like that, you need to be able to swap.

 

[Anteo]

Poor Axe ;__;

That SD vs Sfat really hurt his mindset in the long run. He just needed to recognize Sfat was going too low and Up b into the edge.

 

[random25]

Pac-man lost? Damn...

 

[xaszatm]

Yeah, what's going on with the huge delay between matches?

It's not. It was just a bad match-up. All the pools went by pretty fast with a lot of great combos. aMSa was insanely fast for one, but lost against DHD. aMSa was completely beast mode in his round with Greninja, but unfortunately he lost to zoners.

Zero, aggressive in Brawl?

ayy lmao

 

[FZZ]

Verizon is throttling me right now so the stream is lagging. I HATE IT THE ONE TIME I WANT TO SEE IT THEY FUCKING THROTTLE US.

Fuck this glad my family is switching to Charter, fucking assholes. I pay for 25 up and down I shouldn't be getting 9 down 4 up.

 

[xaszatm]

Luigi Counter.

 

[Codeblue]

The best part of Diddy dittos is that one of them is going to end up in losers.

 

[sciencerob]

It's this the only match you watched?

I watch a couple doubles and singles. I had both streams up for a bit yesterday and would alternate between melee matches and smash 4 matches. I will admit they all are not this bad but nothing I saw on melee stream (or the previous smash 4 matches) compared to the campiness of this match. I think it was probably because Rosalina was being played.

Rebooting sometimes helps for me.

 

[Tomohawk]

Just checked challonge and shroomed beat axe, meaning he got eliminated by Norcal.
