@AlexRoseGames6 жыл бұрын
This was the hypest set all tournament. I love when a set is so close to the timer you don't know whether it'll end or time out. I was losing it just watching it, can't imagine what it was like for the players. Hugo actually won it by not missing his shot. THAT SHOT GOTTA HIT, BRO. He deserved to win though, he played better overall, but I would've loved to see a top 8 amsa. Might have even been able to take a set from Lucky.
@azhaelcamarillo446 жыл бұрын
Meh, better has several connotations. aMSa shown way more tech than Hugs, I find him the average Samus, you couldn't expect less from this matchup.

Rapping Lonsdaleite AMSA played better overall ... you guys have to understand only reason he lost is cuz he managed to basically sd last stock in 2 games this set. HUGO did play amazing not taking that from him but it's one thing to win and another thing to be the one who proved to be more dominant throughout the set. At times it was back and forth but amsa showed grit considering hugo spent the match doing retreating attack moves. Game 1 hugs for sure (I was impressed) Game 2 amsa (although he fast fell past ledge to lose instead of keeping composed and making it back) Game 3 to 5 was also amsa (but amsa sdd last stock game 5) Over all amsa 2 matches he dominantly won in games 3 and 4 while hugs only dominated 1st game and ran away with 2 questionable wins. SO hard to say amsa got out played but it was a tight set there's no doubt about that.
@chaotictoast81996 жыл бұрын
Matthew Curiel all matches were super close. Even the ones Amsa won looked like Hugs couldve took it making this such a great set. Game 5 couldve been Amsa but its not just the sd that killed him. The timer was forcing him to rush in and Hugs just took control once he knew that. Amsa played great and i wouldve loved to see top 8 yoshi but there was no denying Hugs had control this set

@nahor886 жыл бұрын
Even if Nintendo turned out the lights on PM, I'm glad to see Melee live on. In Melee you can have fast sets and slow sets, and they're both entertaining. Can't say the same about Smash 4. Compare Amsa's tech with Yoshi to uptilting over and over again in Sm4sh.
@nahor886 жыл бұрын
Do you seriously think I'm just referring to Yoshi? The lack of combo options for most of the cast are what make Sm4sh less fun than Melee or PM. There simply aren't enough available advanced techs or hitstun to pull off neck breaking combos like you can in Melee, to the point where the characters that can pull off true combos are higher on the tier list.
@nahor886 жыл бұрын
No, people like you who don't understand WHY we dislike Sm4sh are what's wrong with the community. PM has "different mechanics" than Melee. Brawl and Sm4sh took Melee and dumbed it down, instead of just building upon it. If Brawl ended up like PM no one in the world would have complained. Melee still sold very well and pleased both the casual and competitive players. I've played PM with both my competitive and casual friends, whereas I can only play Brawl or Sm4sh with casuals. The only reason Sm4sh is succeeding now as a competitive game is because its newer and more widely available. It won't survive the way Melee has for over 15 years. And the Melee/PM and Sm4sh communities tend not to mix anyways. My local PM community is thriving; we don't subject ourselves to the trash Sakurai has passed as Smash Bros. since 2008.

NTSC 1.2 is the final version of Melee to be released in NA and Asia, and the most widely available(the others went out of print ages ago). PAL is the Europe equivalent. These are some of the changes, but not all(for example, in version 1.0 Zelda's F-Smash and Up-Smash can't be Smash DIed, Samus's dash attack had some invincibility frames on startup, etc.): www.ssbwiki.com/List_of_regional_version_differences_(SSBM)#General
