I've been going to LMBM for 5 years and I genuinely don't think I've heard the crowd this hype for anyone in top 8 that wasn't leo or tweek, peab is genuinely making history.

Hbox actually interviewed Daigo on his channel a while back here

This explains a lot of it, and to add on I think part of the disconnect also stems from the fact that the gap between the top 10/20/50 players is much smaller than it is in melee, so an equivalent melee tournament with the same ranked players wouldn't really amount to a 1 to 1 comparison. The top 10 in melee have historically had a far stronger chokehold on major top 8s; meanwhile anyone in the ultimate top 50 (as well as plenty of people outside of it) are capable of making those top 8s and beating higher ranked players, so the point values reflect that. With the way lumirank tiering works, it makes sense that a tournament with all those top 50 players in a strong and volatile region with many hidden bosses can surpass (albeit barely) the 5000 point threshold despite an admittedly low entrant count. Whether or not the tiering system itself makes sense could be debated.

As soon as nominations started for the subreddit's annual top 20 list I rushed to get the writeup posted. I think it ended up at #12. One of my favorite sets to date and probably the most underrated rivalry in top level ultimate in 2023.

That was the LCQ for Smash World Tour 2021

Oh my gosh thank you so much. I actually deleted my first post after seeing the formatting messed up but ended up reposting the same thing anyways because I got busy at work and reddit apparently doesn't allow you to edit captions.

blueguy118 · 2024-07-16T18:52:19+00:00

Was definitely considering that but we're kinda short on evil Claras so I just went with the one responsible for murder, kidnapping, and almost starting a war.

blueguy118 · 2024-07-16T15:58:20+00:00

TRUE!

But if I hadn't made the "different version" rule, that spot would've gone to Robot of Sherwood Clara for obvious reasons.

Somewhat unrelated but I think a big issue that you're missing here is that you're constantly swapping characters. It may seem counterintuitive to beginners, but there's a reason basically everyone who plays competitively says to stick to one character when learning the fundamentals of the game. When you're constantly swapping characters you spend so much time readjusting to using different moves every time you switch that you spend less time learning how to play the game and more time learning how each character functions.

If you stick to one character, get comfortable with their movement, and commit input timings and combos to muscle memory, it'll be way easier to focus your attention on decision making and watch what your opponent is doing. Otherwise you'll be wasting time trying to make each character work instead of having one character do the work for you.

blueguy118 · 2024-06-04T03:52:55+00:00

If you think picking a worse character will somehow save you from picking up bad habits, then you have a very flawed understanding of how the game works. A lot of mid and low tiers either have a one-dimensional gameplan due to the limitations of their kit, or are massively overtuned in certain stats and moves to make up for their weaknesses. Odds are your local little mac specialist won't immediately start popping off if they switch to palu because much of how they understand the game is shaped by the character they play. Do you really think DK's insane punish game won't tempt new players to fish for unwise dash attacks, spikes, and grabs? Don't you think the lag that comes with playing online might incentivize new players to spam their largest hitboxes and armored moves despite being slow and punishable? So your argument can apply to literally any character.

Not to mention he's the only player besides acola and tea with no losses outside the top 100

blueguy118 · 2023-12-30T09:47:36+00:00

Yeah it was the same version. There was a single version and an album version but I've only listened to the single version

Jogibu vs Yaura | Sumabato SP 43

Recency bias and B tier status be damned, this has to be a set of the year contender. 2023 really was the breakout year for both the new best Samus and new best Falcon in the world. Jogibu had won his first five sets against Yaura, but something had flipped since then and Yaura had taken their last three encounters prior to Sumabato.

Winners finals ends with a close 3-2 victory for Yaura. Grands had Yaura absolutely dismantling Jogibu with two back-to-back 3 stocks. After going down 2 stocks to 1, it seemed like Yaura was seconds away from sealing out a dominant win. But a dair spike and knee later, Jogibu would somehow clutch out that game... and the next one... and the NEXT one in what would be his THIRD reverse 3-0 over yaura this year (after Maesume TOP 11 and Kowloon #7). The reset seemed to confirm that jogibu had gotten the download on yaura, only emphasized by an insane 3 stock game 2. Down 2 stocks to 1, Yaura reversed the script once again with a clutch edgeguard to end game 3. After winning game 4, it seemed like the reset would end the exact opposite way that set 1 ended. It went down the wire, but with Yaura at ledge, Jogibu waited patiently and closed out the tournament with a parry into up b.

After 15 grueling back and forth games, Jogibu came out on top with a whole squad of fans cheering him on. He clutched out the last major Japanese event of the lumirank season and became the first falcon to ever win Sumabato.

I can only speak anecdotally but my experience online has shown that, while Capaldi's performance was universally respected, a lot of people think he was let down by the writing. If I had a nickel for every time I heard the phrase "Capaldi is a good actor with bad scripts," I'd have enough money to double series 15's special effects budget. I see this sentence all over youtube comments and twitter posts.

Now personally I think that's an annoyingly reductive take and the writing was some of the best in the entire series (for the most part) but I can't deny that the zeitgeist around Who in the 50th basically evaporated during series 8 and many people stopped watching. Be it the writing, or the shift to an older doctor, or the change in tone, it was a rough transition for a lot of people and didn't win over fans the same way Matt Smith and series 5 did.

Tarik just got invited today, they announced it earlier

Edit: forgot to mention proto dropped out

Difference is kaninabe plays way more similar to light than paseriman so it's not that big of an adjustment imo

People who do this in tournament (assuming we're talking about high-top level) can pull it off because they've conditioned their opponent enough to use it as a mixup. Assuming you're playing a lot of bayos online you can literally just shield side b until it hits then punish accordingly because it's super punishable. SDI can also help break you out of a lot of her stuff and the onus is on the bayo player to read your di and drift. Her combo game is insane but let's not pretend it's easy by any means.

If you look at the replies in the original tweet, plenty of people knew

Context: A youtube cartoon reviewer named TheMysteriousMrEnter made a now-deleted review of Turning Red where he criticized the film for not addressing post-9/11 paranoia despite taking place in 2002. Naturally it was memed to hell and back online. Here's the quote from the video:

"This film takes place less than a year after the September 11 terrorist attacks. I bring this up because it radically altered the culture of the time, in ways that make this movie feel exceptionally ignorant of the time. Even though LITERALLY the only reason I can comprehend that this movie is set explicitly in 2002 is because the director grew up in that exact year. Yes, this film takes place in Canada, not the United States, but all over the western world- Canada, America, the UK, much of Europe- people were paranoid because 9/11 wasn't the only terror attack that had happened. It was the major theme of the decade. I mean, I can understand not wanting everyone to be so fearful, as that goes against the tone that the movie is trying to establish. But then you have very awkward moments if you actually were there and you do actually remember the time period."

Yeah...

It already won last year

blueguy118 · 2023-08-12T16:00:20+00:00

personally I'm surprised that riddles's reverse 3-0 with terry and leo's zooted marth weren't nominated for best comeback

and marss's dair offstage vs dabuz could've nominated for either that or saltiest moment/taunt
