[@liamray7186]

To go against back to back sonic and olimar sounds like purgatory

[@nephilim4683]

trust me its not as bad as the sephiroth or min min matchup 🫠 i actually die inside when i go up against those in tournaments

[@DavionLane]

Add Steve and then it’s perfect

[@nephilim4683]

@@DavionLane Steve actually isnt that bad imo. Power dunk and crackshoot are actually really good against minecart and closing the distance he creates. Everything after that is just what every other character has to deal with when going up against him. Plus power geyser and rising tackle are amazing anti-airs against him

[@hwanniggles187]

Honestly that first Sonic played well. He didnt play like a degen that game. He kept approaching and playing footsies for the most part Edit: nvm I saw the rest of the set

[@live2die694]

@@hwanniggles187 that was sonix

[@mr_coke1401]

The only reason I play this game is cause of riddles, I may be trash with Terry and kazuya but seeing this makes me wanna game harder

[@AvgGio]

Same lol I’ve been grinding kazuya and terry a lot more even tho I’m more of a sonic Mario and cloud main 😂

[@That1Guy112]

Keep the grind going. It is so satisfying to accomplish what you want. I know you’ll get there 👍

[@joeszad4584]

keep going ryebread

[@Nintendan95]

I started goofing around with Kazuya just because of how hilarious Riddles makes that character look. I can't do anything fancy but he's still super fun.

[@tinyt.w.i.m7291]

You got it. Keep getting better.

[@kirashachiroku]

I can feel the frustration playing that Sonic. Congratulations bro you killed it 🤙

[@christopherhammond5142]

Hard to even watch, let alone play.

[@Granster10]

That sonic did well in my opinion, they were actually playing aggressive and reacting to Terry's movements

[@kirashachiroku]

@@Granster10 Yeah they played well, I have nothing against the Sonic or their playstyle just feel the frustration riddles was having against them because Sonic is pretty hard to catch.

[@kingxjoshy235]

@@kirashachiroku I would say the same but there’s just something about sonic players that irritates me on a spiritual level. I will fully embrace being a hater cuz I just can’t get behind it

[@kirashachiroku]

@@kingxjoshy235 I totally understand what you mean, I dislike Sonic A TON but at the end of the day we can get better and adapt to it, after all I play all the FGCs so people probably think the same about me when I get a free 80% off one string. 😂

[@heyyou8714]

Damn. Riddles is one of the few people I know who have hit the give up into protagonist come back true combo. Too many inputs.

[@Shaeffen_]

15:30 Thirty4 must've been so shook after that up air didn't kill

[@Zx30]

That perfect DI got him shook! He's got the plot armor haha

[@aowawa]

thats dabuz

[@not_nate4291]

Good

[@bekker5000]

I think you switching to Roy for a few tournaments when you weren't feeling the Terry and Kazuya brought you back stronger than ever. These characters are super strong when piloted in the right hands, and you honestly make them look top-tier. Congrats! Well deserved win!

[@CerotheDemon]

People not realizing the Sonic was Sonix who is just absolutely nuts at the character. That was the best part of the video! Congrats on the win Riddles!

[@weezrod765]

0:14 bro what is that comment😭😭

[@Dribin]

Congrats Riddles!! Those sonic and olimar sets were pretty hype!

[@chiyue5676]

sonic olimar and hype are mutually exclusive

[@Hadok3nStudios]

Godlike FGC characters when played by you much love riddles

[@PrototypeFury]

You know the match is difficult when Riddles starts using grabs

[@haloes92]

Bro, you're insane. That momentum gave you the confidence to use safe tactics to ensure the win. I love the drive you have and am looking forward to even more development within your gameplay

[@davidchongchengkau8262]

Riddles popped off harder winning a body pillow than a coinbox.

[@snakebebop]

Imagine how he hard he'll pop off if he won an actual tournament?

[@coach7704]

that sonic matchup looked annoying asf

[@CaptClapz]

“Grand Finals Winners side.. I’ve never been here.” - that was wholesome.

[@youraveragekaleb]

0:58 Was a rollercoaster 3:52 This one too 9:00 The "Are you okay?" tech 😭 12:37

[@ianfullmer5274]

For anyone wondering music is from octopath traveler

[@natenurse2229]

But what's the song name

[@cbarlos663]

The fact that even riddles tilts and loses his composure when playing sonic really makes me feel better, cause same! Crazy that Sonix claims that its actually difficult to play sonic, why would you play a character that everyone will give you shit for using if you dont even think hes good (worth it). Might as well play someone like falcon and have that crowd power up on your side.

[@Meddadius]

With absolutely no knowledge of Sonix, I’m betting he’s a big fan of the character in general. Loyalty like that drives well.

[@butter_face-e4l]

I like the fact that he actually using his face to control the game rather than console

[@Shaeffen_]

Fun fact: Riddles is the first person to win Coinbox without a "wifi character". (Aegis, Sonic, Steve, Olimar)

[@BlackMetalWorld]

Coinbox can get super annoying to watch when you see the aforementioned played at several tournaments multiple times per bracket.

[@10cesc4.]

Pika ain’t a wifi character though.

[@theexaltedlt8222]

Terry is definitely a wifi character lmfao. Riddles himself said he thinks Terry is way better online

[@Manganimemer]

This is definitely cap 😂 Riddles himself has said that Terry is a wifi character, and he’s absolute right. Terry (and Kazuya to an extent) is way better online.

[@imnotgonnasugarcoatit]

...? Terry is one of them.

[@davoman9118]

I'm so glad I was able to catch the comeback part live, didn't catch much else but just that was one of the hypest things I've watched live.

[@Allplussomeminus]

9:13 exactly how I feel when playing. The sounds, visuals, and character animations make you Feel the game.

[@benandrew21]

Kicking a Sonic's teeth in! That's doing the lord's work!

[@Socratic_Crisis_1724]

Riddles is the real ‘King of Smash’

[@snakebebop]

More like the "king of getting smashed" since he doesn't win actual tournaments

[@Socratic_Crisis_1724]

@@snakebebop it’ll happen. Just give it time.

[@Socratic_Crisis_1724]

@@ABC-ik9vj I respect your opinion. But I have a feeling that he’ll win a tournament soon. I’m certain that if I’ve learned anything from Smash’s history, it’s that losing is the best way to win because you learn from mistakes. Just look to Hbox. He was behind most players in his generation, now he’s (I’m not certain on current smash 64 rankings so correct me if I’m wrong) #1 in smash 64. Edit: it was melee

[@Socratic_Crisis_1724]

@@ABC-ik9vj there’s a documentary on it, it’s called ‘there will never be another player like hungrybox’ I think

Sonix is so freakin good, I know Sonic is annoying af but his movement and understanding of Sonic is pretty incredible

[@dennisd.4726]
