Man, was on a phone with a friend who was watching Melee and he absolutely could not understand what was going on, let alone the appeal of playing Smash without items.

To be fair, I can kind of understand that sentiment if you don't have knowledge on high level Smash, but these sets have been pretty entertaining to me so far.

Too bad a Samus player didn't make it to Top 8.

plup is a samus player. best samus in the world

he might use samus in top 8 for certain matchups

I tried to watch but I don't quite get it.
Is it the glitches/mechanics like wavedashing (I don't know what that even is) that make it exciting to watch? If I understood the mechanics could I enjoy it as a spectator?

I don't play SF but that's more traditional I guess so I know what is what

Sure, on a mechanical level the amount of inputs they're needing to do are more than what's apparent
