This set was phenomenal all around. Technical banana play, solid character counterpicks, but what impressed me the most is that River’s Chrom was able to force Tweek to counterpick Sephiroth. It shows volumes of River’s skill as well as Tweek’s

[@sebaschan-uwu]

Technical banana play

[@johnfkennedy1478]

Hell yeah Tweek Sephiroth! No disrespect to the Diddy but gotta love the Sephiroth.

[@lokks2130]

Love watching River's Chrom, so clean.

[@pacificramune]

3:50 Tweek is so good he can drink water while hitting the diddy combos

[@christostsipouras7287]

bruh he lost the game because of that

[@extasse99]

@@christostsipouras7287 pretty sure the video is just delayed

it's a remote stream off of a hot spot internet connection and the network hiccuped enough to desync the camera to the game 😭

Chrom with a banana scarier than diddy

[@stebopign]

it is. minmin is scariest actually. or anyone that can kill early

[@randybentley7953]

Chrom can kill at 0% with that banana.

[@ZHL242]

@@stebopign Rivers specifically is terrifying because he's easily the best Chrom in the world and probably the 2nd best Diddy, so he knows both exactly what the opposing Diddy is going to try and exactly how his character can utilize banana. Another great example of someone bopping their opponent with their own projectile is MattyG vs. Grayson at Frostbite, MattyG was one of the best Mega Mans in Smash 4 and fights a ROB and completely obliterates him with his own gyro it's disgusting

[@TheForever206]

@@ZHL242 we would need to see rivers vs mr r to confirm who is really better.

[@lancelee338]

I love that Tweek is going to locals now. I get to see more top-level Tweek gameplay Others like Jakal and Rivers have more experience playing top-level players, so they'll be better prepared going to majors (let's go Jams) It's really funny seeing him at locals lol Also, you can tell the love of the game is there. He said it hasn't been to strong in the past, but it's here in full force now

[@andrebaxter4023]

Orbs are called Shadowflare. His up B not charged is Blade Dash. Charged up B is called Octaslash.

[@roscodogg1289]

Goated youtube channel.

[@giraphite_8976]

Tweek realizing that he can't solo Diddy but also continuing to keep Diddy is awesome. In a Larry lurr interview he said it feels like it's hard to keep up with Diddy if he plays other characters, but he's doing it pretty well so far.

[@DimzNoms]

What a GREAT SET! It stated competitive the whole time! Rivers item play was phenomenal .

[@sxe219]

15:13 optimal punish

[@elsologian2016]

lmao

[@brainfog9892]

These players are so fast you literally see them recovering from the end of each match before its displayed

[@ljay2255]

Loser finals ? Who beat Tweek in winners ?

[@warrenlwolfe]

tweek is so stylish but also technically incredible to watch

[@free3793]

How does character counter picking work?

[@mr.person1219]

With any counter pick in games. Look at their kit and see what works around it where they have a hard time. Revenant counters Gibby because of his tac, Septh counters zoners because the sword can cut through objects, Royal decree counters any trap based decks, etc. For Septh to counter Chrom, Chrom is fast, but so is Septh. Septh is fast, strong, and can outrange Chrom. Diddy is countered by Septh because he inately counters zone.

[@free3793]

@@mr.person1219 Okay well imma go a little off topic here: Sephiroth actually struggled against some zoners especially ones like young link because they can shoot a lot of projectiles and he is so tall he struggles at times so dodge them. I am also pretty sure diddy beats Sephiroth because Sephiroth is so light and diddy is short and that is tough for Sephiroth. Banana is a very strong tool against light characters especially. Also the only reasom Sephiroth might counter chrom is because of Chroms horrible recovery and Sephiroth can just counter it. But chrom is a lot faster than Sephiroth even tho Sephiroth isnt slow. You can ignore this if you want just letting you know lol. But im talking about during sets like how does it work. Can they keep changing characters forever? Who goes first etc

[@sebaschan-uwu]

Damn in that last game rivers was trying so hard and tweek was trying so hard not to get hit by the banana lol

[@driphtwood]

Rivers' Chrom with a banana is beautiful to watch

[@Mindgamingu]

I can’t wait to see tweek play against Leo again. Seems like Leo’s been doing other things than playing smash and tweek has been honing his craft even further. But you never know when against Leo, rusty or not

[@Mindgamingu]

@Pokemon Master because during their last stand off in grand finals, Leo won. And also in terms of pgr. Also I never said either was better

[@sharsasuke01]

Is it me or does the video look saturated?

[@MasterHandGaming]

it does! we are pretty limited w equipment in that venue, unfortunately. we'll hopefully be getting some new stuff pretty soon though, so everything will look better when that happens

[@Moodyboytodd]

chrom out here lookin like link with those banana(bomb) regrab combos. yes ik james plays diddy

[@lukemedina19]

i fear no man... but chrom with a peanut... it scares me

[@Telescreen5]

I was amazed how well Rivers dealt with banana. The crazy catches, stealing the banana before Diddy could get it, and his own banana kill confirms... I'm impressed

[@trymacs4511]

More recognition for rivers please

[@lancelee338]

9:53 What on earth? The banana didn't bounce of Tweek's shield, it fell in front of him

[@armoblood7291]

Yeah not sure if its sephiroth specific but would allow for a guaranteed shield break or charged f smash punish

[@Mindgamingu]

Yup this game has its bull shit lol

[@KingPravum]

interesting the new generation is not bad... this tweek player is able to move like me really impressive for just that amount of time he plays smash brothers

[@elsologian2016]

5:56 the perfect jump???

[@sp3k73r]

Wtf was that???

[@elsologian2016]

The perfect jump, perhaps.

[@sheempemailsv9327]

The banana is the only thing that helps him hit you. That makes that character trash.

[@alejandroguevaraestrada9530]

[@kava3957]

Sephiroth makes me not want to compete. Does he have any bad matchups? It seems like he beats literally every other sword character.

[@reallygoodsnusnu]

Get yourself a zoner like samus and his range won’t bother you

I only watch sepiroth,mario & Cloud fights. Sepiroth should always win. You cant lose to these weak ridiculous characters lol.
