Sumapa 151 GRAND FINALS - KEN (Sonic) Vs. Tarakotori (Little Mac) Smash Ultimate - SSBU

[@humouringg]

Reminder that this dude was almost voted into watch the throne last year but was barely beat out by three guys who went 0-5

[@gerardorodriguez7858]

Its not like this was a super major but still, beating Ken and Shuton with Little Mac is astounding

[@israel4786]

If more ppl played "low tier" characters, the odds of seeing them would be higher. Smash is full of hive mentality.

​@@chalybee8689the immediacy with which I got wrecked by this comment was astounding

[@spider-man8222]

Its not like you are a super major either.

[@owenduffy5745]

​@@israel4786 Hard agree. There are plenty of characters that no one plays just because people say they're bad, and if more people played them we would actually see their potential. People used to think Incineroar was like bottom 15 until Skyjay started getting good results now everyone says he's high tier. People just parroting other people's opinions is a huge pet peeve of mine

[@killerbeanfan64]

They’re playing a different game in Japan

[@jaydenvaporwave1772]

Understandable the game we got down here is boring

[@javathehunt790]

Can you elaborate? (Not being a jerk) Do you mean skill wise?

[@javathehunt790]

Nvmd, watched the whole match, I see exactly what you are saying.

[@Levibossmanthe5th]

For sure

[@denhamjeanz8038]

Tarakotori perfectly mimics Little Mac's running posture while sitting

[@SpaceFaceProductions]

Japan smash really is incredible it feels like every tournamentI watch in Japan, a character considered low-tier is making top 8.

[@jojomcjoe292]

Tbf this is just a weekly but you are totally right. Japan doesn’t let a character being bad get to their mentality and just do their best, it’s awesome to see.

[@TheFantasticWarrior]

Tarakotori win against top players in small tournaments a lot, like the pre local bobc, but flops in serious ones

[@ajaxmajor]

someone tell that dude that I'm concerned about his back

[@Kapow59]

Play rock paper scissors with yourself Now do that until one of you wins 3 times Theres the mac ditto for you

[@JheavenProductions]

I talking about to watch which Little Mac is better duh 😒

[@Laach826]

​@JheavenProductions that would just determine who's best in the little Mac match-up between their two playstyles. The best player is still determined by overall wins in tournaments like this one. Not that it wouldn't be interesting since their playstyles look very different from each other.

[@theemeraldmage2910]

​@hieuduong2213 probably not as boring as half of the sonic matches.

[@KalikoAF]

This man beat Ken, Shuton, and a Min Min with Little Mac. Let that sit for a second.

[@raulchava6]

9:27 is the nastiest thing I’ve ever seen a little Mac do.

[@PHYTO18432]

Probably best way to play Mac. Weave in and out safely using his quick movement and frame data. Bully opponents with high KB moves (ftilt, dtilt > side b, dash atk/rapid jab) then chase them by either ledgetrapping or catching landings. Tarakotori is also really good at parrying and finding openings

[@Gottrouble]

Surely he doesn't move up to C tier after this

[@xmay9354]

This dude win Shuton and ken, gyat little Mac

[@boobaahsworld8282]

so lil mac has a thick ass? 🤣

[@ssctiyo4735]

Oh yeah, if you guys dont know, Tara using DJFair instead of DJDair to recover is to maximize the horizontal drift of Up B, but this will also make Mac lose some vertical height, so its best to use it when you're launched up and away offstage and your Side B spent.

[@EnsembleVGM]

Can we appreciate how insanely good Tarakotori is at keeping stage control?

[@MantasticPanda]

one of the best matches i have ever seen, commentated by one of the worst commentators ever. not saying anything, called a lot of "oh hes dead" when he wasn't, and just kind of monotone and not in time with his commentary. and at no point did he ever come close to actually saying Tarakotori. we got takatori, territory, takati, takatree, taqueria, riki tiki timbo, tick tock on the clock dj blow my speakers up, and belshnickle, but not the guys actual name. 0/10 would not bang

[@Aidan86BG]

Little Mac in some ways is what every low teir should be, inconsistently bad. He may stink, but sometimes he's the best character in the game, great ground speed, high damage output with broken frame data, with K.O punch. I think Mac is way better than Ganon, Ganon is just bad, but Mac, has a off the charts x-factor with shield breaks, K.O, and just generally quick and heavy hitting moves. Of course he's a bit lame, mostly on wifi though. But I personally don't think he's bottom 5, bottom 10? Yeah... he's definetly bottom 10 lol.

Sonic wins a lot of matches by just timing people out. It's kind of why he's considered Top 2 if not the best character in the game.
