This tournament made me so happy and so sad at the same time. On one hand it was a return to form for Spargo and he genuinely looked like he was having fun. Also no one got completely destroyed here unlike old summits. everyone had a fighting chance. On the other hand, the top 8 seemed like no one was happy at all except spargo. ESPECIALLY SONIX AND TWEEK. The way they played at some points seemed like they just wanted to leave

Sonix is never happy while playing, he behaves like a spoiled kid and I mean no disrespect, but he has a very toxic mentality for the game and himself, I just hope it doesn't become destructive on the long run, I've only seen him happy AFTER the tourney's over and he won, he has too much hunger for victory and it shows. Tweek unfortunately has no answer for acola and Miya and as per usual, he crumbles under those two, which too isn't anything new to him, that's has always been the case, he has said so several times before, how he becomes so tilted and mentally drained that he doesn't want to play anymore and WTT has a very stressful tournament. MkLeo was just doing MkLeo things, I'm sure he wanted to go further but he is still probably no.1 in the world in terms of mentality. The japanese players take things super seriously unless it's Tea, that's the way they do things, everytime acola popped off, he looks like his sugar levels plummeted after it happened, Miya look'd like someone about to commit murder sometimes and KEN seem'd to be having fun. Sparg0 was clearly the only one having fun but he got the best bracket he could've wished for, which is hilarious considering it was seeds 1, 2 and 3, back to back.

I’d be rooting for Sparg0 but damn is it stressful to be his fan lol. He’s proven he can beat the best of the best, its just him getting to top 8 that seems inconsistent (the ApolloKage set is a good example of him almost losing). Whereas Miya, Acola and even Sonix can get to the top 8 with ease, those top 4 seeds know its an uphill battle against Sparg0. Sonix also had an amazing run, with good matchups on his bracket, he’s proven again he is a threat to the top 2 best JP players in the world. Though results is what matters, he’s one of those players that makes us question who is really gonna win the tournament. Miya and Acola had an amazing run as expected, Acola especially had a good Aegis against Sparg0 and I can see it beating his Cloud if he improves. Miya again, making top 8 easily and beating NA/Europe best. He’s probably gonna be the best player next year coming with ease, nobody’s got an answer for him when his bracket run lacks Sonix or Sparg0.

The only reason wny people got so upset about the Web vs acola set is because it's Steve, there's at least 10-15 more characters that can gimp you at that low % and there's at least 20 characters with shitty recoveries that can be gimped without resorting to that much bs. Yes Steve is broken and has a ton of bs tool, but let's not pretend he's the only one capable of doing that, kurama could've done the exact same thing at the exact same % with that much rage, even SSZ can gimp you at those percents with a downsmash into flip kick spike, hell, one of the factors that make MkLeo so dominant in his prime was because he was able to pull those comebacks by killing you at 40-60% last stock with stuff like Byleth's down air. It happens, it sucks, it's always been part of Ultimate, way before Steve was a thing.

Also Sonix mu experience against Cloud has lowkey been miniscule as of late, like he hasn't been practicing the mu, which I gotta stress, as someone who uses both characters, yeah the mu is even af, just volatile for whoever is in disadvantage.

WTT was a decent tourney to watch. TBH, though, it’s the first time I watched a major and left feeling unmotivated to play the game. So many sets where the shitty, polarizing character won because of overtuned tools. By the time top 4 rolled around, I just wanted it to end.

You choose a really bad tournament to start, invitationals don't bring a lot in terms of hype because it's meant to be the best of the best, if you don't like the top players attending, you will most likely not enjoy watching. Top 4 players were top 4 seeds, who are currently extremely strong and as much as we love upsets, this was the expected outcomes. If you want hype majors, watch a massive open bracket or a massive qualifier, even this weekend we had Santa Paws and it had a hype top 8 character pool. Even with overtuned tools, Ultimate is the most balanced smash game and you're bound to see very wild stuff in massive open bracket tourneys and hype upsets, Luminosity Makes Moves Miami was super hype for example, but even then, almost all qualifying tournaments for WTT were won by players who ended in top4 here, with the exception of Genesis Black, the last change qualifier that was fairly small and none of the top4 took part in it (Won by Apollokage) The fact that WTT was won by a Cloud main shows how ultimate is, there's not a single cloud that comes close to Sparg0's results even if he has been inconsistent this year, because while Cloud is a great character, he's nowhere near as overtuned as the other 3 in top 4, yet, he absolutely walled them with pure skill and match knowledge.

I loved this tournament up until the top 6 where there was not much to look forward to. Acola beat Tweek and I know Sonix would beat Ken so we would have a Steve, game and watch, Cloud, and Sonix top 4. I don’t believe we should ban any characters but the top 6 was just not a fun viewing experience, especially after how good losers side and pools was before it. I know that saying I want to go back to the Leo era where Leo was always in top 2 is kind of counterintuitive because I’m frustrated with always having the finals between two of a group of four players, but there was a veriaty of players fighting Leo in grands across many tournaments and Leo is more fun to watch then all the top players now. I have nothing against the top right now, I just wish we had either consistent enjoyable matches like with the Leo era, or a wider variety of players making it far in tournaments.

I understand people disliking characters, that has always been the case for any competitive character game really, but I'd rather take what we have here than what's been going on in Melee for the past 15-20 years in terms of character pool as well as what happened to both Brawl and Sm4sh, thinking that something like that will happen in Ultimate is insane. While everyone was talking about "the strongest characters", Leo kept dominating with Byleth who isn't even top tier, Santa Paws GF was Hero vs Corrin and that Hero somehow beat the best Pikachu in the world, we're good, it's just that not every tournament will have the same results in terms of hype. Port priority 8 had a Fox ditto and a Peach/Daisy matchup in losers and no one complained about those because they're not Steve, Sonic or G&W, those were some hype af sets, even tho everyone knows Peach/Daisy and Fox are very strong/bs characters, but reality is that they're not campy nor boring to watch.

Not every character can counter play Steve though, especially if he plays super campy

@@MagxNoliai tend to agree with what you said but we need to be mindful that Ken basically gave up on using Sonic vs Acola. He felt Sonic could not beat Steve. and then Sonix vs Acola happened twice now. it is possible that maybe with the right player, certain characters can beat Steve.

@@jj6148 Zackray, Tweek, Gluto and Leo literally cannot beat Acola because of their characters. It doesn’t help that Miya contributes to this issue from that stupid lagless flat being of jank, then switches to STEVE when he gets players like Dabuz that finally beat them.

While I don’t like watching Steve, I want to see acola finally beat spargo. While he only took one game, it definitely looked doable, and if he could win their next set it would definitely shut up all the “acola isn’t good he just plays Steve” and “acola can’t be ranked above spargo if he hasn’t beat him” people (yes I know acola beat spargo at LSI, but spargo has been his bracket demon ever since)

Of course its doable, he plays Steve. The issue is that there is a skill canyon between Spargo and Acola in the matchups they play, and Spargo isnt gonna lose those without a fight Also if Acola does end up winning because he hits a minecart at 70, would that really shut anyone up?

Acola played aegis vs Sparg0 at WTT and went 3-1 with game four being fairly close. it wasn't doable because Steve, it was doable because Acola played really well. I think if Acola beat one of the best players in the world playing his secondary aegis, it would probably shut some people up who were claiming that he wouldn't be good without Steve. (And regardless it would definitely shut up the "but he can't be #1 till he beats Sparg0" people)
