Kirby kids dad was at the tournament supporting him. So wholesome.

Kirbykid gets blown back by his own combo 22:01

[@DefenestrateYourself]

LOL. So true. What an insane combo

[@JASA_87]

I would be too... such a sick combo!

Kinda reminded me when dogs get scared of their own farts

[@tylerting]

So proud of kirbykid winning a grand finals. Without question showing people it’s the player and not the character.

[@willycheez7218]

No it is half the character

[@francoistoutee3423]

Wait, some people think KirbyKid is being carried by a bottom 10 char? XD

[@Cyrath89]

Then i wonder what he would do with a joker or lucina :/

[@Crakinator]

That’s why MkLeo is dominating the competitive scene with Byleth of all characters

[@The6stringsamauri]

Yes, but I couldn't help but wonder why he didn't use reflect once.

[@SuperPwnageBoi69]

@@The6stringsamauri he did, but only once and it was for a boomerang near ledge.

[@wadesheckles5420]

@@The6stringsamauri He also never once utilized Succ n' Cukk strats. i know its dangerous in elite/tourneys but the occasional cannonball cancel, short hop, succ wavedrift, then launching them under the stage has won me more matches in elite than anything else

[@tacoponcho]

This is some of the best krool gameplay anywhere. Congrats to kirbykid.

[@diegot143]

This king k rool is one of the coolest things happening in ultimate

[@cyber895]

Wow those 30 mins went by so quickly! Been viewing King K. Rool matches casually since shortly after the game's launch and i must say i'm so amazed by Kirby Kid's skillset to utilize this character to amazing potential! (Even beating Leon)! King K. Rool is a joy to play & watch and i'm so glad he's in this game! Props to KirbyKid, great work!

[@SomeoneWeird-vx5jx]

To put this into perspective, Kobe beat Leon, the best bowser in the world, at riptide. And then Kirby Kid wins two sets against him. Kids a beast.

[@blazex2037]

Well k rool has a better time matchup wise against young link compared to the young link and bowser matchup. K rool has lot more options to deal with young links projectiles using his own projectiles and the armor he gets by throwing the crown. Really let’s him stand his ground a lot more instead of falling into disadvantage. Bowser doesn’t have as many options with dealing with young links projectiles so it makes sense why Kobe beats Leon and can lose to Kirby. Not saying that Kirby isn’t a great player because he is a great player just that the matchup is a bit better for k rool then bowser.

[@cheezypikle]

The best Bowser is definitely Hero

[@Zoro4rk]

I look up to Kirby Kid and Ben Gold. Best Crocs I’ve ever played in my life. Well done both of you 🥺

[@thecummonster.]

I wish Ben still played K Rool, he dropped him for Wolf

Amazing game, the tech that kirby kid used was amazing, and I agree with lily, there needs to be more women in gaming. GG to the winner. Kobe was amazing also. Props to everyone who made this happen.

[@NaterTater182]

Why did he never use his counter?

[@Evixyn]

I am very surprised to see a farther support his son in a video game grand finals as if it was an official one versus one athlete sport. Are video games really being pushed to that point?

[@kirbymlgnes1482]

They are already at that point you been missing out

[@BboyJovi]

Its been a thing since the first Video game tournament (i think pong, 1973) there are really supportive parents out there.

[@theKIRBYDAD]

As the father seen in this video, I have a question. So, it would be cool if I supported my son playing football, but competing at a high level in "video games" isn't? I support my son 100% in his competitive career and I would not change that for anything in the world. Maybe you are out of touch / uninformed about the current state of esports in the US and around the world. The fact that you are surprised kind of leads to that conclusion.

[@KonariVibez]

@@theKIRBYDAD You're the best KD💯

[@Evixyn]

@@theKIRBYDAD I am happy for you, as such things are becoming Normalized with video games, as such things was frowned upon say ten years ago if not two decades ago. Where many would call video games a child thing as once you reach a certain age that when one should stop playing videos games. I do apologize for being more traditional, which is why this video surprised me. Plus as casual individual who just plays games to pass time I am not in the world of games, out of touch is the correct term but I am not saying it is bad just different.

[@scarce1934]

i wish my dad was as supportive as kirby dad but he thinks that its just a waste of time

[@addex_classic]

This k rool is insane

[@baiwatch1]

"Out of his mind" "Out of his mind" "Out of his mind" 🙄😑 If every player plays every round "out of his mind", then what does that mean anymore?

Stop commenting spoilers on videos challenge.

[@UshiSound]

How many rounds is this?

[@Moneygrip]

K rool is god tier

[@darthnoob2169]

Am I the only one thinking the commentators heavily favored Kirbykid? Like yeah they are both good players but every time he got something started or just stray hit. They went wild lol 🙄. Kobe got some sick plays that went underappreciated

[@SuperNintendoChalmers096]

I mean, is Young Link, a character that the only thing he does to make damage is spam proyectiles with 0 interaction

[@xxbanjxx8970]

They tried to make it unbiased, but I agree, young link is hard to commentate in a hype manner. Especially since k rool is barely even a mid tier

[@kevstiburodracon1024]

Seriously, Young Link is so annoying, more than K Rool does, so spammer AF 🙄😑

[@alightened]

Watching young link is so annoying. It’s just straight spam

[@TheKillerAA405]

15:05

[@SuperNintendoChalmers096]

Do people really complain about Banjo Kazooie being B spammers when characters like these exist in the game? At least the bear make interactions and can be fun sometimes with breegull combos, but man the three Links, Bayonetta, Min Min, Zelda and the Castlevania/EarthBound duo are a cancer to look at

[@doctordice2doctordice210]

Idk watching pro Belmonts play at their best is more fun then watching roy players airal spam their opponents and with disjoints
