The Biggest Ultimate Tournament You Didn't Know About

[@pgstats]

With SWT and Panda Cup approaching their final qualifying events, who do you think will earn the final spots of each circuit?

[@Mintininja_SSB]

Not zomba😢

[@yvescajou8914]

Someone would've assumed the thumbnail is about maister 😭

[@ascendedstar3850]

That’s me haha

[@xanander4693]

Nah

[@voodooedits785]

Nah Miya has been making an argument to contend maister’s throne for best gnw in the past few months

[@Fpl8646]

Nah….just you.

[@CastafioreOnYoutube]

Like 50% of GnWs use the same color for some reason

[@PurposeDriven7_]

Japanese commentators were top tier and hilarious

[@nya69]

japanese majors r literally so fucking cool, so much wacky tier variety n incredible play across all levels

[@6PathsGohan]

Big facts they use such huge variety of characters

[@LOVEUGYARU]

0:53 set so hype the commentator turned into freddy fazbear

[@elemangell2981]

7:29 Man punned so hard he turned into Chuggaaconroy LMAO

[@JonnyJayKhan]

Kome's Shulk and Kameme's Sora were great to watch, hope to see more in upcoming tourneys along with Yoshidora and Aba

[@ninapuddles9541]

I love Japanse commentators

[@obsidiancrow450]

I would kill to see maya and especially yoshidora at an NA major. Yoshi really seems like one of those characters in NA we don't really see the full potential of or see how top level NA players handle a yoshi player of that caliber.

[@trymacs4511]

Mi-ya will be attending apex

[@ry-x]

Yoshidora will be going to SWT if he qualifies (which he probably will)

[@Pedro-ho2xj]

What about NA top players traveling to Japan majors? that hasn't happened post-pandemic and it barely ever happened before that.

[@obsidiancrow450]

@@Pedro-ho2xj from what i understand its way harder and more expensive to get in japan vs. The u.s

[@KubPlays]

toon link actually did something in a major, crazy

[@thundercharged1]

I mean, he just came off of a 9th at one of the most stacked Japanese tournaments of the year, I'd say that's pretty good.

[@seanborell]

That's my boy sigma

[@KubPlays]

@@thundercharged1 ah i wasnt aware of that, neat

[@DairInNeutral]

@@KubPlays Sigma is a surprisingly very consistent player in Japan. He hs a lot of good wins and consistently places just outside of top 8s

[@Spyder-Marth]

This confirms Toon Link is viable

[@Flindo911]

actually stayed up to watch it, was pretty hype.

[@Saltyoven]

Please next year if we're doing it again, please give more advance for the surprise gold/platinum events. I want people to be able to prepare for these.

[@reniculous1559]

Something magical about the narrator failing to hold it together at the end of the video

[@RurouniiJay]

Anyone remember the name of the kirby song at the end? I cant remember it for some reason

[@yourheroes5874]

Kameme is literally showing everyone that Sora is good! Maister, Dabuz, take notes

[@tanmin8268]

Can’t wait to see how Miya does at Apex 2022 next week. He’s better than Maister IMO

[@ARAGHOSTA]

I agree but he's still fairly inconsistent. I have low expectations on his first overseas major, especially considering how much top GnW experience there is in US

[@voodooedits785]

No

[@sandycoin]

what was the song in the outro?

[@TKWNNGGT]

7:55 ayo my man went to the land of the Boriquas lets gooooo

[@SuPaRn0oB]

"Thats what you get for playing kirby" lol

[@voodooedits785]

Pac-mains is what I would say

[@voodooedits785]

Hopefully apex has a maister vs Miya set there it will finally decide who the best gnw player is worldwide

[@nss_ethan]

Nah bro the game and watch ditto is ResidentSleeper

[@tanmin8268]

Yeah ditto matches don’t mean much

[@Sancnea]

Maister isn't going :(

[@PurposeDriven7_]

If ditto matches meant something then Aaron would be considered the best Diddy over Tweek when we all know that’s not the case

[@kimjongfw3498]

How can UFA have almost 600 smash inscriptions and only being "super silver"

[@SpencerTwiddy]

7:03😂

[@lloydaran]

Woah, it's not even the middle of November and it's already their last major? Also, Acola 92% winrate? LMAO WTF is that offline?

[@salfoyer2411]

Yes it’s offline

[@user-zs8xt4fw2x]

Theirs a couple events with the potential to turn into a major but theirs no kagaribis, umeburas or maesumas until next year. Instead their having a doubles "major" so more than likely this was the last one

[@rasenganpimp]

Pacs-Man, I would say. Like attorneys general

Lmao Proto losing to randoms again😂😂😂 can’t he win majors consistently? Every time he’s getting smacked around be it by bowser, metaknight, and now sora!!! LMAOOO

[@andrewface2355]

Hero, Abadango, and Kameme are top players, not randoms. Protobanham struggling to win majors in Japan is not so much his inconsistency as it is that he's just getting outplayed. It's simply harder to win majors in Japan.

[@RurouniiJay]

L take

[@austinroccaro2219]

@@andrewface2355 no it just means that japan is around the same level and nobody sticks out. They are just guys. If Leo lost to all those random players we would criticize him and say he’s no longer what he once was. Leo wins in dominant fashion and we say ohhhh his characters are broken! Meanwhile Proto gets slapped around..crickets. He wins majors with Lucina/min min and nobody brings up his characters. I’m just pointing out the double standard.

[@andrewface2355]

@@austinroccaro2219 Yeah, that's what makes the Japanese scene so scary. They're all around the same level and they're all top level players. No power level gaps as they say. When Japanese players travel, it's only a taste of how crazy it is there. This double standard you're complaining about is one you invented. No one who's paying attention to results in Japan thinks Proto is the best player. At best he's barely top 5 in Japan. That doesn't mean he still can't be a threat to MKLeo. And might I remind you that the Sora player you're laughing at Protobanham for losing to just made top 8 at all 3 NA majors he attended the past 2 months and has also beaten MKLeo. If you think Kameme is just some random, you don't know anything about the Smash bros competitive scene.

This tournament was extremely hype as all fuck
