Wow , I'd Love to see a gif of that moment. That was SICK

We still need a GIF of Aerolink Usmash against Villager sideB ride as well. Soooooo goood.

 

[The Xtortionist]

WHAT THE FUCK

 

[PreyingShark]

That was so anticlimatic.

 

[theprodigy]

would lol if you guys get timeouts 2.0 in losers semis

Also Aerolink reflecting Villager's side B as he was riding it.

I feel weird for not feeling too badly about the Palutena/Villager matchup from earlier looking at everyone in this thread's responses to it. :lol

Definitely think that Palu has more tools to go crazy with but at the same time, going in on Villager is frustrating.

She really needs her custom moves to be allowed for maximum awesome.

"press 1 if Palutena is your waifu press 2 if Sheik is your waifu"

lmao Twitch chat

 

[L00P]

this paletune player is terrible

 

[Anth0ny]

we got time outs

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Palutena looks crappy.

 

[PreyingShark]

Another spot-on prediction.

 

[Pancakes]

Shiek only, no items, final destination.

 

[mStudios]

This Pauletina, please...

 

[OricWindstar]

why do I always miss the cool stuff

Same. Definitely going to watch out for a youtube upload of that bowling ball cape.

 

[johnbone]

Can I once again vouch for the 2-stock, 6-minute format? 3 stocks is just too much for certain matchups in this game....

I'll quote myself here-I HATE timeouts!

 

[Azure J]

Oh God, I can't wait for the 180 when she gets access to this stuff. This also reminds me that I forgot what her best setup was, besides Jump Glide for tridashing.

 

[Roo]

Where are you guys watching?

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Palutena is the only character that causes these time out problems. The other major characters in this tournament do just fine in 3 stock.

I mean, it's the experimental phase. Gotta try 3 stocks and see how it goes at some point. I do prefer 2 stocks, though, from a spectator POV by far.

I think D1's favourite set-up was Autoreticle, Jump Glide, Superspeed, and Counter. Probably how I'm gonna roll, too.

Yawn...

Are we watching the same stream?

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Are we watching the same stream?

Maybe I missed one, but every sudden death I've seen involved Palutena

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Isn't Counter her default down B? Why doesn't Aerolink ever use it?

 

[Azure J]

Pretty much my exact customization. Might mess with a swap between Autoreticle and that explosive burst special for certain matchups.

 

[KLatin Scelus]

I'm thinking no one should use Palutena in till custom moves are allowed.

 

[OricWindstar]

I'm pretty shocked Sheik won.

 

[L00P]

He doesn't freakin use anything

 

[DooD1234]

I don't know bout you guys but I'm getting a little sick of these ninjas dominating.

 

[theprodigy]

I'm pretty shocked Sheik won.

on the other hand, I totally bet on Sheik winning

 

[Thorakai]

Maybe I missed one, but every sudden death I've seen involved Palutena

there was a timeout in a ROB vs Sheik matchup, essentially. It just didn't actually happen because the ROB was desperate for a win and took a risk he wouldn't have with more time.

 

[johnbone]

Palutena is the only character that causes these time out problems. The other major characters in this tournament do just fine in 3 stock.

DHD, Villager, Palutena, and Pac-man are all HIGHLY campy, and kills can take FOREVER when they play. Which is fine, but if that causes a time-out, the rules need to be adjusted.

Spoiler

Meanwhile, Little Mac and Bowser matches are often only 3 minutes lol

 

[PadWarrior]

Thanks, Pad

Welcome

 

[theprodigy]

lmao that Sheik player just choked

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

MURABITOOOO

^This.

I've also seen non-Palutena games time out before on other streams. And that Sheik game just now could have timed out if Aero's defense was more on point.

Man, the Japanese stream was so much better...

 

[Azure J]

Murabito with the Ed tactics on that Reset Bomb Forest match

DIG A HOLE, DIG A HOLE, DIG A HOLE

Yeah I miss Greninja and Pac man.

 

[theprodigy]

This dude Zeph choking so hard lol

 

[Jawmuncher]

Any WFT this tourney or shulk?

 

[IntelliHeath]

It would be hilarious if Villager is going to be top tier. Do you know what Metaknight and Villager have in common?

They were first newcomer that got announced for their respected games.

 

[ReiGun]

Any WFT or Shulk anywhere? Feels like no one is playing these two.

yeah but Villager doesn't have quick, relatively lagless KO moves and super gimping abilties

 

[zroid]

I've been KOd by a CPU Mario who caped my bowling ball

 

[Jawmuncher]

WFT I was told was in a earlier tourney but was a out if nowhere pic for the player. Shulk has been MIA because of his monado actions. Could see him being a character we see more of on WiiU.

This made me rewatch the Melee reveal to see who was first

It was Peach

But what was more interesting was that the crowd went absolutely bananas when Ridley was shown. And looking back, yea, that was quite the tease.

Also both Pichu and Jigglypuff were shown in the reveal, which I never knew.

 

[Kyuur]

It took me a couple matches to realize I probably shouldn't ride the side B from off stage vs Mario. The cape making it's return as Mario's powerhouse tool like it was in SMW.
