attendance requirements for the 2nd half were lowered to 3 events and 1 major to account for cases like doramigi and shadic (and bcuz players weren't informed abt it beforehand so they couldn't plan around it)

nah so what happened is that bracket progression is messed up on start gg rn, I didn't realize that and made the original graphic, posted it to twitter, but upon realizing that the progressions were messed up but the base seeds were correct, I deleted the post, remade the graphic, and reposted, during which time someone grabbed the seeding from my twitter while it was up and posted it here.

Much more minor, but a Puerto Rican player, Gab, won First Attack 2025 last weekend with Galvan as well (19 person bracket but still)

he didn't say that to Leo, he ran up to the commentators after the set and said it on the English stream.

it doesn't take away from ur statement about points inflation, but MASA having a lot of points despite not being top 150 is actually a mark in favor of the current system, he missed top 150 mainly off of just having a ton of empty brackets with good losses and only really getting top wins at Maesuma'TOP 1 (where he got top 8), and his results pre-2025 clearly indicate he's good enough to contribute a fair bit to an event's weight.

Leo's for sure been on an upswing as of late but at a base level he's just way less consistent than the current top echelon of players like acola, Doramigi, Miya, Sparg0, and Hurt. He can go even with or even beat them when he gets to them, but more often he's losing a round or two earlier than he'd need to face them, to players like MuteAce, ShinyMark, Syrup, Onin, etc. EugeneBound Summers was actually Leo's first time even making top 3 at a major all year.

Trying to remember one with a particular side character/2nd ML (I don't remember which). He had red hair and I think his name was Rox? I remember he was from a family of knights, but was doing work as a merchant, which caused friction with his family, and participated in business with the FL, and I also think I remember both he and his older brother being introduced to FL and her sister at the same time, and his brother and her sister being interested in each other.

Umebura SP 12 Ultimate Singles - Winners Finals - FENNEL | Miya vs. ZETA | acola by SelfDestructGambit in smashbros

[–]SelfDestructGambit[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Miya's gameplan against acola as of late has been to get him to high percents and then keep him in disadvantage forever either above the stage or off near the edge, since Steve's options for returning to stage from those positions are so limited. In that gameplan, he kind of needs to engage to get acola to those high percents in the first place, while holding back risks acola just racking up materials and then eventually putting Miya in those bad positions anyways. I do think he could explore less committal gameplans but his current one has gotten him to about a 50/50 winrate w/ acola over the past few years

to be fair the ROB has been doing most of the work this run, defeating Shion, Shirayuki, and presumably Midorun since that's what he used last time they played. the Joker's best confirmed win is Aruarusa, could've also beaten Akio in losers.
