THIS IS PEAK SMASH ULTIMATE! | Collision 2023 Top 8 Reaction

[@IncineRand]

Skyjay putting on the performance of a lifetime with the wrestle cat truly is peak Ultimate.

[@SnuggsMcDuff]

And the King trailer dropped too. Wrestle cat fans have been eating good all week.

After this Collision, a lot of pro players are gonna have PTSD everytime they saw those cheeto hands 😂

It's crazy seeing Nairo make a bunch of callouts right before they happen. He truly knows the game.

[@benmcgiggles7655]

Especially because he does it in every single top 8 he watches on stream. And hes on the money way more often than he's not

[@clay2889]

agreed, just shows how Nairo really is a top level player.

[@Hasseo]

Would be mega pog to see him compete again someday

[@neverknowsbest.]

@@Hasseo he could easily enter online tournaments like coinbox undercover and no one would know. Someone donated this to him before and he said "na I'm good. Offline or online I'm never coming back to competing in smash"

[@StormierNik]

Man I'm not even fuckin mad that Skyjay lost, that set was just NUTS all around. That set was just straight scrapping. Beating each others asses and tying it up again. What a great watch holy hell. Like it was so damn close that it still shows how viable Incineroar truly is. To be in constant last hit situations against a peak player IN GRAND FINALS and nearly taking it all. AFTER beating top player after top player.

[@rep1600]

i am so praying we get more of this in the future to come, imagine most tournaments with more diverse pools and plays like this

[@eigenenvy9371]

I have been in competitive Smash for almost a year and I still don't know what scrapping means in this context i'm sad

Love to see these players throw hands back to back, Skyjay was phenomenal. I’ve been Inceneroar main day one now he hyped me up even more.

[@stephenhui1907]

I already watched all these matches 10x and this hour long video still flew by. The craziest of things happened in this tournament and Nairo’s reactions to crazy things are always something to look forward to

Still in awe of Skyjay’s performance. Dude was fantastic.

this is some of the most incredible gameplay I’ve ever seen

3:32 Facts tho. Some top tiers have been slacking on the far edge guards.

[@SuperSilver7591]

Incin Main since launch and WOW am I so glad Incin has someone like Skyjay representing the character

[@3thhackz531]

You can tell spargo really didn’t wanna lose that but you gotta respect how he knows how to take a lose like this with grace at such a young age.

[@Apollo.111]

I got excited when Nairo said “that was play of the tournament” on one of Skyjays earliest games, cause I knew what was coming lmao

[@cbf1plus868]

As an Incineroar main & a Nairo fan! This was perfect!!

This HAS to be the greatest grand finals set ever played, surely.

Speaking of pixels if you pause at 1:00:44 you can see incineroar pull his arm back before doing the bair, enough to avoid Kazuya’s electric. So it went both ways in those few seconds lol.
