Singles Tournament: Paul Oyama vs Marisol McKee - Movie Trivia Schmoedown

[@matheuslascasas134]

Man... Paul is a damn impressive player. That was a perfect game and it looked like he knew all of Marisol’s questions.

[@chronos5385]

Not getting knocked out, even technically, when your opponent records only the second 1.000 PPE game in Singles history (not even two weeks out from Bateman's) is mighty mighty impressive for a ROOKIE. Marisol is here to stay.

[@craiglee5460]

What’s the definition of “1.000 PPE game”? Genuinely interested. Thanks.

[@chronos5385]

Craig Lee For sure, PPE is what Frank uses to record ‘possible points earned.’ The phrase ‘perfect game’ has been (and will still be) debated, but at the very least, Ben and Paul have definitively gotten the first two 1.000 PPE matches (in Singles). edit: and Possible Points includes steal opportunities and not going to multiple choice in your R2.

[@patrickharden9917]

Marisol just has that "something" that can't be defined on screen. A presence that's one in a million.

2 thing I loved about this game: I love that Kalinowski is power-walking around his house I love love *LOVE* Marisol in the league - seriously, she's such aa amazing addition to the MTS

[@coolnima]

I know this has probably already been said a thousand times by now but I can't believe Marisol is a rookie. She has a professionalism about her that makes it look like she has been in the league for years. Great match!

I don't know how I found this channel but I watched this video from beginning to end and I am completely sold! I am not really a movie person nor am I a sports person but somehow this is just the perfect combination of both to pull me in!

I did not realize that this comment had so many replies! I feel so welcome here. Thank you so much! I am going to have go over the early parts of the tournament but I already subscribed. One of the few channels that it took just one watch of one video to sell me on that.

Hell yes. Drip Drip. Also McKee was an absolute professional in the way she handled the loss.

[@robbiemoore5608]

I never liked Paul as a heel but he's become a player I like a lot.

[@soulwarrior]

Nothing like a good ol' redemption story! ^^

[@BrynjarReynisson]

This match just keeps proving that Winston Marshall is going to be manager of the year. He makes all of his players better

[@bsbgirl85]

Yep, I'm going to keep saying it: Wintston for Manager of the motherf*cking year! If bias doesn't win out, he should clearly win that.

[@BrynjarReynisson]

@@bsbgirl85 yeah I dont see anything getting in the way of him winning it

[@bogdananicescu6051]

I love Finstock but right now Winston deserves the MOTY award.

[@tiagocruz10]

I really hope he wins it.

[@TheRealJKJones]

Great match! Despite the loss today i'm continuing to become a bigger and bigger fan of Marisol. She's just straight up got star power and serious trivia chops. I wish she had had the opportunity to debut earlier in the season like Goddard and the Barbarian did and gotten some matches under her belt before making her way up to someone like Oyama. I think she absolutely would've had the opportunity to enter the rookie of the year conversation if that was the case. The Barbarian would probably still win it anyway but i do think she would show herself to be stronger than Goddard for example. I think she can make some real noise next season (hopefully in both singles and teams). I actually think the Cushing comparison is not quite right because Marisol has come into the league appearing very comfortable with character work as well. In terms of trivia yea she shows that early cushing kind of promise. But as an overall package i'm hard pressed to think of many others who've come into the league as fully formed as Marisol. In just these 2 matches i think she's made a strong case to go 1st or early 2nd round in the upcoming draft (i'd have to look at the league roster to really know, but that's my ballpark gut feeling). Great bounce back match from Oyama today! My heart was torn as i'm obviously become a fan or Marisol as well, but i am glad to see him get the win today rather than continuing the slide in singles. I think he's about to put together a big run here. I think he'll be able to handle Sneider again, and whoever comes out of the other side of the quad won't be as scary (no pun intended) as Kallinowski was supposed to be. I see Oyama making his way to a semifinals matchup against Erwin (probably).

[@davidtwinn7519]

Paul Oyama just one upped Bateman with a perfect game in 3 rounds! Definitely helped redeem his loss a little bit from spectacular 💯💯 don’t know why anyone was doubting him. 2x singles champ and only losses are to Rocha & Bateman. I have him making the finals against the Kid 🔥🔥

[@Just_Ben_]

Marisol missed 2 questions. I’ve got a feeling she’s going to be a huge threat in the future. Oyama should have just hushed any naysayers. Think he’s got a good chance to make it to the final four

[@fostercare_4u]

Great match between Oyama and Mckee. Rooted for Oyama to win and that he did but Mckee played a hell of a match. I see a great future for her in the Schmoedown.

[@patrickharden9917]

I'm not sure how I can feel so invested in this match, but I am!

[@Maitch3000]

That Hannibal question was made to make peoole trip up. First you hear "Anthony Hopkins returns" and then you immediately think of the movie Hannibal, but then you get the year at the end of the question, making it Red Dragon. So people need to pay attention to every single word.

[@patrickharden9917]

Quite an impressive second career match. Is there such a thing as a seasoned rookie?

[@MisterMandoo]

Yes, his name is Paul Oyama, in his rookie season

[@patrickharden9917]

Who else was replaying the scene of the girl falling in slow motion from Dredd in their head trying to remember the name of the drug? I couldn't remember haha.

[@adriancooley1819]

Lol me but I kept thinking it can't possibly be called slow-mo

[@angelpipessd]

After her third repeat it suddenly popped in my head, and I was hoping it would do the same for her. Either way, Marisol played her butt off but just hit a perfect brick wall

[@shezie125]

Marisol is so beautiful and smart, it sucks that I can't see her go further in the tournament. But getting matched against Oyama, she did very well.

Marisol plays like a pro. The way she played round 2 was vet like. You know she is going to just get better. Paul had to bring his "A" game for Marisol. Great match both competitors are incredible.

[@sivad1025]

I'm betting on Paul, but man, I really, really want Marisol to win. She's awesome

[@LynxHazard]

Great match by both competitors. Paul's back to form (so grateful for that, did not want to see him revert back to his heel persona so he could get the swagger back) and Marisol is probably the scariest rookie this year. She'll be lighting up the scoreboard next season for sure.

[@alexanderforbes1452]

McKee knows her stuff, but the outcome was expected, Paul is tier one.

McKee's heart rate must never spike because she is stone wall cool and collected the entire time. If her and Alanah Pearce ever had a podcast together where they played the game Journey it would be the most chilled out thing I can think of.

I like Shannon as a manager, however she didn't recognize Marisol's reticence about the Nora Efron category in round 2. It wasn't a bad round at all but against Oyama, going to multiple choice 3 times won't cut it.

Spoilers We saw Oyama at his best today. And when he's at his best, he can beat anybody. A perfect game is damn impressive. I can't wait for him against Sneider; that's going to be epic. Good match overall for Marisol; even in defeat. There's a lot to like about Marisol's game and now that she's going to be in the teams toruney, I can't wait to see how she does. That said, Harloff comparing Marisol to Rachel Cushing after two singles matches is ludicrous. Obviously this is not Marisol's fault in any way. Harloff badly wants a female superstar player to fill the void left by Cushing, Wolfe, and Knopic; I get that. It's just plain stupid to compare someone with this small of a sample size to one of the four best players in Schmoedown history.

[@bsbgirl85]

Good match. That's the Oyama I love to see! He did the damn thing in this match, and it's just another example of how great of a manager Winston is as well (MOTY!) Like I said, newbies show how they really play when they face real players (cause Bonnie is a freebie match and always will be, especially when she still doesn't know the rules after all these years) and she did pretty well against Oyama. She's okay but she's not Rachel Cushing and never will be. Rachel will forever be the Queen and I will always hope she comes back to grace us with her class and elegance. Congrats to Oyama and SWAG again, especially with taking out another Korruption player. Can't wait for Oyama vs. Sneider, I still got Oyama on that but Sneider has always been a wild card. As always, go SWAG! *Waves pom poms*

Was it only me or was that 5pt Dredd question like extremely hard? Doesn’t sound like an unfair question, but that seemed like a deep cut in an innergeekdom category. Am just curious if anyone knew that answer right away? Maybe it’s just been a while since I’ve seen the movie haha

[@kenthehobo]

I did. The thing about 5 pointers is that you either know it, or you don't, it's virtually impossible to guess. The hardest question I heard was: what is the name of the firm in "The Firm".

[@MrOmac09]

I knew it as well.

[@vivneb]

I think it was one of the easier 5 pointers we have seen lately. I’ve only seen the first half of Dredd but I knew the answer from that and the trailer

Am I the only one that thinks Oyama threw the fight against Bateman: 1. Oyama goes 6-0 to become the undefeated champion 2. Scores 3 points in the Bateman match to lose the title 3. Looks scary good in teams with Lon and in singles again I mean I don't know if it's a duck but it damn sure resembles one. Also Ellis I'm with you on the moon landing why is that flag straight out there is still 1/6 the gravity of earth's gravity. Without air that thing should just be straight down. If they put shellac on it then why isn't that common knowledge?
