22:00 French guy couldn't believe ESAM didn't hit the freest Up Smash off all-time and the other commentator oblivious to it.

[@arjayecho9890]

the first time he was like "ok i taunted and high percent and immediately died, i'll just taunt when i'm at 0, there's no way that goes badly."

[@Manstarr29]

Esam so used to practicing himself that he forgets to study his opponents

[@humouringg]

Studying your opponents is a good way to lose to an unexpected opponent

[@plabcentral630]

This is the outcome we all wanted

[@Toonpow-bb5ci]

i'm going to be honest, i didn't know who tf would win the set lol, the two players played exceptionally well.

[@cjwerner2747]

If esam just stopped tjolting in the corner he could have won. Bass mage hit him for it almost every time.

Matchup so bad for pika 😢

[@lokks2130]

Some of these leads Esam amassed should NOT have been dropped. He needs to stop over extending, it definitely could've been a 3-1 or something. Also he kept tip toeing around air to air as if he doesn't have back air, that move is really good in this mu. Still a pretty good showing, it's cool that he's not as rusty as I thought he would be

[@fard7321]

Wtf is ESAM doing 😫

[@tomcampbell8934]

Being consumed by soy

[@GV-dg2lk]

Esam forgot that ‘taunt to get-bodied, to lose the set’ is a true combo. “Pikachu just got busted!” 😳😱 🤣😂

Bassmage played so insane this game. So glad he got the win. :)

ESAM could go scrub stomping on elite smash all day but I think he’s too comfortable playing WiFi pikachu which is what separates him in the majors from the usual people that place high in tourneys

[@BrockBreedingintheHoennRegion]

4:30-4:35 wouldn't that uair string lead to a thunder ko?

[@DavidLopez-iv5qi]

I mean he definitely played with more patience at neutral this could have been an easy 0-3 with the old esam playstyle

[@danyang8617]

Ikr. Esam was a monster when he popped off back then. Then again hes now moved onto the box from the gc controller. Thats one reason y hes changed up his gameplay a bit. Also pika main here since 64 ;)

[@AlexRodriguez-gb9ez]

Hmm bassmage should just use nair for edge guarding since Pikachu's hurt box increases in size when he uses quick attack, all of his two-frame attempts failed. All his attempts at two framing with pound or dsmash failed. Bassmage had some clutch rests, but hmm i dunno if you can practice for this matchup but you can rest through pikachu's air attacks(fair, nair, dair) using inv frames of rest but its hard to practice for, 17:19 shows this O_o. If I am at 140 or 150% with puff I would go for a rest read or dair->rest hahha... 12:31 was a rest punish...

[@nathandobbs7540]

Why does Esam look like the very image of soyjak?

[@regancarver7263]

I think one of the popular soyjaks is based on him.

[@Alles_Ratten]

is it just me or did Esam really fall off ever since he is playing with the smash box?

[@Jakey-puff]

Baaassss! Nice job bro

[@TopOfAllWorlds]

BASSMAGE WON THIS?!

[@casablancahunter1606]

It's really not that surprising. ESAM isn't even the best Pikachu player and the matchup is only -1 for Jigglypuff.
