HOW I WON A MAJOR (Analysis)

[@tekatahk8056]

First lol

[@GppGery123]

I always liked these videos since it’s sorta like an insight on what the players were thinking at the time as well as them commenting mistakes they made or things they could’ve done better.

[@SpyderBey]

Reporter: "ESAM, how did you overcome such grand obstacles and opponents?" ESAM: "Pikachu? Busted."

[@matumcwrap]

The most humble title in youtube history

[@TonyTheTaco0830]

I’ve always loved watching you and picked up Pikachu in Smash 4 because you made him look so good. I’ve stuck with him ever since and practically taught myself to play him using all your guides. Congrats on the Major!

[@Barbarxssa]

Can we talk about the irony of you losing to a Snake and a SAMUS since then though?

[@Mo-if6rx]

Whos Snake did he lose to?

[@lagspike7763]

ESAM would you be willing to analyze the Low Tide sets with Elegant in top 8 (particularly Elegant v Tweek)? I've been watching high-level smash for a while but I think another top player's analysis of that set would be great to watch.

[@lifetake3103]

Something I'm noticing in both watching your sets and this part 1 analysis (plus your other ones for past tournaments) is a lot of your bad habits that would lose you sets just aren't here in this major. Just a lot of good decision making and when a bad decision is made it usually isn't a horrible one. It makes me wonder while yes you haven't been participating in a lot of competitive smash this quarantine and it had people questioning on how well you would do I think this quarantine allowed you to pull back from the habits and just play some really good sets on your return. Obviously I also don't doubt your grind and labbing in quarantine as well, but I also never doubted those back before covid as well. As well and I can't really confirm it till you say it, but your composure this major seemed really good and I know getting nervous and getting a bit of anxiety is something you deal with in tournaments, but it didn't show. Obviously though thats something I'm not gonna claim till you make a claim.

[@sevenyo-yos513]

ESAM I really enjoy these analysis videos

[@parasiticmold9827]

Next video: how you lost in pools

[@Harry05383]

Me: *sleeping* Esam: so, have I told you the story of how I won a major

[@shuumatsunojoshua]

Sorry, this is more important than your sleep.

[@BeatDropperPS3]

Now how you got bodied at a major

[@Daniel50190]

He wouldn’t do that, he’s too much of an ego maniac

[@herewego5679]

Esams ego is high. But got shutdown by icymist you should enalyze that set.

[@fupalover]

Samus beats Pika

[@voodooedits785]

@@fupalover no she doesn’t

[@fupalover]

@@voodooedits785 ESAM has lost to 3 very different samus players in an offline bracket. A top level high level and now mid level samus. If pika wins there's no way ESAM should be 0-3 vs samus in bracket. The MU is even or slightly in Samus favor.

[@voodooedits785]

@@fupalover every samus player says pika wins the mu against her

[@fupalover]

@@voodooedits785 That's their opinion. My opinion is supported by results at the highest level. Only advantages Pika has is offstage and juggling which all 3 of them showed how avoidable that is.

damn that outro is slick

[@Bladeluce]

When people say "It's not that simple," what they mean is "I'm not as good as you."

[@bloodylegend5176]

Hey Esam. Hope you’re doing well, love your content keep it up

[@Gritblast]

you won this event 2 months ago

[@degeleagel420]

Pre recorded

[@CookieGal-]

Analyse a set, i don't know if you've seen it, it's IcyMist vs Esam :D

[@liotos]

OMORI OST!!!

[@gj4312]

He thinks pika wins the peach mu pretty handily because samsora's gone. Pretty sure he thought it was 50/50 back then and I think it is.

[@Kotasake]

Yup

[@jody1159]

EDITOR, IS THAT OMORI MUSIC?

[@liamatte]

Funny thing, my trsining partner back in the day was my brother, and he only played peach an gmw. Im just sayin, any game and watch i fought in tournaments usually got washed lol.

[@majintv24]

Esam wins glitch 7 and now glitch 7.5 so is marss gonna win glitch 8 and wadi is gonna win... a local

[@voodooedits785]

No ESAM won glitch 7 and 8.5

[@NickVaz95]

Now make a video about how you lost a major you were 1st seed at.

[@edwards.4446]

omori music :)

*How I Won A Major* You picked pikachu... that's how

[@reenans2860]

Melee community: Leffen or Zain wins a major. Well played Ultimate community: MKLeo or Esam win a major with Joker/Pikachu. Broken character nerf now!

[@evylsalamie]

@@reenans2860 rite? Yet we're not seeing an increase in pika players if pika is so broken

[@bigredog100]

@@evylsalamie Pika is good, but pretty technical to play. Similar to Joker and Peach. People really think it's as easy as pick a character and win, but its not.

[@evylsalamie]

@@bigredog100 agreed. Ppl think Pika auto-carries me but they dunno exactly how technical all the plays are

[@bigredog100]
