It’s good seeing LeoN at this high of a level with Bowser, hopefully he can keep it up!

[@shrkzrcoo]

Tough loss for Leon since Maister has routinely been his bracket demon. I was so happy to see him implement a new strategy and basically camp with firebreath. It worked so well, but I think Leon got a little too antsy at the end

[@mandalorianhunter1]

Well this set wasn't how anyone expected to go

[@alexdiezg]

Sorry late response but honestly this is exactly how I expected it to do

[@CipherKnighto]

I did expect Maister to take the W but not in the way he did

[@ppeemg]

first time i muted a smash vid cuz these commentators are atrocious

[@CALLMEDONK]

I may be wrong but it feels like Leon gets impatient towards the end of the game, both players played very well though.

[@whoever121]

you're right

[@wits_end.]

He got a bit desperate and held towards Maister. G&W can't really kill from stray safe hits. Kinda wished he would side B Maister more often.

[@kayden2119]

yeah I mean obviously you gotta play great to almost beat maister but it seemed like he played very unsafe. Like there is not a good reason to get hit right there when he has so much space on the other side of the stage to at least attempt to go to.

[@torment-se9039]

As a bowser player, i just think that he also got hasty and got predictable in trying to fish for those side b's. Maybe juat trying to close out the game with a different move. Even with conditioning opponents to shield, at calliber level where they are playing, it will be a kill option the oppenent will be expecting

[@nathanlevesque7812]

I feel like spectators read into mentality 99% of the time because anything else requires actual analysis

[@firewall5189]

leon is such a smart player hoooooly shit: - played around bucket by overwhelming it with fire breath spam at the exact right moments, ensuring that maister couldnt just invalidate one of his best tools with bucket. - realized that maister was starting to really adapt to him around game 3, so he played super safe in game 4 and didnt utilize fire breath all that often, trying to throw maister off his usual game plan. - went all in on game 5, playing way more risky, trying out whatever reads he could get based off of previous games (e.g. the up smash attempts), and went right back to the fire breath spam. - probably more tbh, im not a top player

[@Turnpost2552]

Brah naaahh, Bowser is just rip, hope for the ebst strat lol he got downloaded and became more predictable as that rip mentality isnt discipline.

[@firewall5189]

Hey, bro... will you fill my bucket up with fire? Thanks!

Not the result we wanted but the result we expected.

absolutely hate game and watch but i don’t hate the player. Glad maister was able to get the dub

[@Moegivesmelife]

Amazing set, well done both players!

[@panagiotiszymaris914]

LeoN played really well this tournament

[@Luhcalmmattyice]

Yo that last game last stock read by Maister🔥 crazy

[@Ocean_Man205]

This feels like Maister was learning the matchup during these games

[@austinreiner3360]

Love seeing Leon’s bowser. Hopefully he keeps coming out. Great set.

[@waleedmughal4439]

Maister clutched up

[@johnbingham5693]

16:00 good fucking god what a call out here from Leon.

[@Molten-Throne]

An absolute battle! Last game, last stock. What a fight and what and end. Congrats to the winner

[@Quarzsx]

11:26 Maister went demon mode holy 115 damage

[@opportunity-kfpairlines6716]

LETS GO MAISTEEEER

[@kennybosefus]

Um, does Bowser's toughguy not work against G&W rapid jab?! 18:18

[@nehhver8993]

At that percent tough guy doesn’t work as well, this is in addition to GnW rapid jab being able to hold bowser longer than most other rapid jabs.

[@DavionLane]

maister is genuine proof that ANYONE can do it in smash !! super inspiring stuff :D

[@DavionLane]

My fingers are crossed

[@ZumaZoom07]

Against bowser…

[@willycheez7218]

​@@ZumaZoom07Yes a character that kills G&W in 2 hits what is your point

[@mysteriousmuffin6017]

@@willycheez7218bro why are you in every comment section saying gnw is bad. this matchup is objectively horrendous for bowser every top player disagrees with you

[@willycheez7218]

@@mysteriousmuffin6017 The character is dog and dies in two hits

[@JCBurdenLifter]

This was really weird because it was almost like Maister was acting like he didn’t wanna be there for the first two games and then he just turned it on for the final three

[@ColmK83]

Losing with GnW is a choice

[@casablancahunter1606]

Just pick a sword character against G&W lol

[@trapmaster123rd]

Always impressed by the commentators at smash factor

[@stitchez1713]

Losing with gnw is a choice

Vale verga, soy Mexa pero la neta si quería que ganara Leon xd

[@SantiagoAntonAlonso]

X2.. Ver un top bowser es cabrón

[@JuanCarlos_NX]

Y el tal pollo?

[@palettia]

i almost had a heart atack

[@lambchu6459]

Maister plays like a Melee samus.

[@jeffersonian4]

That's BS. Maister played great games 3 and 4, but Leon straight up outplayed him game 5

[@chizel322]

Leon got so impatient man he could’ve easily got him

[@thelordoftheweebs9501]

Can't believe maister stole this

[@Luhcalmmattyice]

Maister read Leon’s soul on that final stock

[@KellogsCflakes]

No reason down smash should sent up. That's crazy.

[@phizlip]

because its also an anti air force fast falling opponents

[@phizlip]

for*

[@eddyspaghettiii]

Why does gnw down smash have 3 different hitboxes all which kill when characters like wario and fox and probably more have bad sour spots which do have terrible knock back.
