THIS TOURNAMENT WAS INTENSE (CEO 2024 Reaction)

[@psyduck8025]

Imagine waking up in the middle of the night to find Kola crouch dashing towards you at insane speeds

[@QuickRipzz]

I'd just give him a pop kiss and call it a night :)))

[@MasterAbeer101]

Kola's pop off was so deserved. He absolute cooked Riddles at the end with that air dodge read

[@pultofcat8615]

Deserved but hilarious

[@MasterAbeer101]

Plus Kazuya has been his wall from what the casters said

might be my favorite pop off i love him yelling into the camera so much

[@gavbav]

Look up hungrybox goml pop off. It was so good live because the set was insanely intense

[@LimboGcX]

Always great watching Kola win big! Such an explosive set with some great play all around

If I see the "bro fell off" joke I swear I'll end myself. Also I love that kind of analysis, I haven't watched the video yet but I'm sure it's gonna be a banger, the Marss banter mode+ top player mode kind of mix in those and I think that's awesome

[@Thalia._.X3]

Ong i freaking hate those comments. Plus i like marss analysis

[@LODphantom]

Can't forget about the intangible limbs on kazyuas areials/attacks in general

[@arkoathbreaker5169]

Only up air has intangible frames, the rest of his aerials do not

[@josiahtheawkward6008]

5:25 Thank you I feel the same way. Acknowledging that you’re obnoxious doesn’t make you less obnoxious. Florida is such a backwards state, it’s insane

[@ColorfirePluma]

There's a little bit of Florida in all of us

[@brendanmohareful]

Such a good set. Riddles kinda lost his edge at one point in set 2, can't figure out why. Stuff happens I guess.

[@julioarcaiko]

Psychological pressure. Kola was relentless this tournament. So many good read will get to a guy.

[@heyhi7415]

Kola played crazy and the crowd was cheering against riddles. He definitely didn’t play at the top of his game

[@isabellewellein8154]

riddles spot dodging got rlly predictable too

[@CovertGhoul]

he got the holy spirit on that one

[@ashbowyer7792]

him gently laying the chair down is hilarious

[@Pam234]

Kazuya looks like such a fun character to go against 😃

[@melty2k]

being able to see this tournament in person was a nice experience i can’t lie

[@mrmunchin2578]

ngl if i see my opponent is fishing for parries as hard as riddles was, id side b a lot more

[@bovid2750]

Strive grands were crazy, too

[@gv82089]

And Tekken's. Funnily enough, the Kazuya player got 2nd there too

[@niallg8918]

Great set but we need more respect to riddles gameplay don’t think mars gave him his props

[@trombonegamer14]

Yep. I fucking hate the FGCs but Riddles is absolutely cracked at the game

[@LEANSWORTH]

Even though riddles is like one of 2 Canadian top players I still be praying on his downfall simple because kazuya

[@kalelgg-wm1ei]

That kazuya fair cheats big time, matter fact kazuya cheats all the time 😂😂 Ohh and that was a turbo tea bag at 22:15 🤣🤣

[@DJKrisyKrisdude]

It's so crazy how much of a bot Riddles looks on the last couple of stocks where his entire gameplay looks like all he did was mash electrics, fair's out of histun, spotdodge and air dodges

[@jimmydjomo1767]

Did Marss only review this set from CEO during the stream or did he watch other people's sets?

[@juanestebanramirezo.244]

U becoming a profesional commentator?

[@Gogster6]

Wait can someone explain how the tourney works? Riddles won set 1 and kola 2 but why does cola get the immediate win?

[@Heiniu-dl9pl]

if you're still interested, it's because smash tourneys are double elimination tourneys, and kola had not lost a set before grands, which is called being in winnerside grands, whilst riddles did lose a set before, so riddles had to win two times and kola once

[@k2a2l2]

i love kola

[@lilpoetat]

Thanks 🎉

[@thebygoneking]

It feels so frustrating to watch these types of matches because it feels like Kola is so thoroughly outmaneuvering and outplaying Riddles, but he’s still losing stocks and games to raw cheese. Like no amount of mixups on landing or consistently out mixing your opponent will stop you from just dying to rage drive or a random EWGF. Big ups to Kola for taking the set and the tourney though.

[@blazeiken2]

idk man it takes an immense amount of skill / timing to land those in top level play imo, since everyone knows EWGF it's not as easy as it looks. Sure, you land, u get free 40-80% dmg / possible 0-to-death, but getting to that point can be tricky, especially if the opponent like kola can mix / bait out. Ppl will say Kazuya is overtuned but yet only 1-2 ppl can play him at an efficient top level play and get results.

[@Beardog21814]

Bro has never died at 60% to Roy side b. Raw cheese. You can argue Kazuya worse for sure but if no dlc, you would be saying Roy is top 5 brainless cheesy characters that just mash, no matter how hard you outmaneuver.

[@thebygoneking]

@@Beardog21814 Never said Roy wasn’t cheesy as well, but I definitely think there’s a big difference between Roy cheese and Kazuya cheese. What’s notable in this match is that Kola is consistently outplaying Riddles, Riddles is doing objectively dumb defensive options, and yet Riddles still had a real chance at winning this set because of cheese like EWGF and Rage Drive.

[@blazeiken2]

@@thebygoneking as in, kola is getting hit for free? You have to hit EWGF / Rage Drive to get cheesed boss, and even then, you can still get out of it.

Kazuya is such bullshit 😭😭😭
