Ngl I wish VGBootCamp did the thing that Beyond the Summit does where they make grand finals videos 40 minutes long even if there's no bracket reset. I didn't watch this set live so the video length was a spoiler

[@JuanWonOne]

Totally agree with you.

[@chony93]

Yep, the length of the video tells you that there's no reset.

[@Nandinandito]

They don't do that because KZbin doesn't like it if people leave your video Midway through

Agreed! My mood went from excitement down to "haizzz, alright" the moment I see the vid length.

Kola has to be one of the cleanest players in Ultimate and the cleanest Roy. He’s the reason I started playing Roy again for fun. Anyone calling him a masher are insulting his insane call outs and aggression. I’ve been rooting for him at Glitch 8.5 and Smash Con, so I’m so happy he won.
