[@xanblu]

tk coney and ee gotta get paid more. they made a top 8 with 3 olimars and 2 snakes entertaining

[@jamesontaber5996]

Best top 8 in ultimate so far. So many game 5, last stock scenarios, so many hype comebacks, so many callouts, such explosive gameplay. I don't understand how anyone can hate on snake or olimar. Sure, they're defensive characters, but as far as defensive characters go they're amazing to watch -- they both have high risk high reward gameplay with huge punish game for mistakes, meaning pros have to be on their toes the whole game in order to take it, and we have so many exciting moments. Good balance does not mean that every part of every character is equal to one another -- that's just bad game design (looking at League...). What makes a game interesting is how the unbalanced aspects of each character come together to create an overall balanced meta. For example, Samsora's explosive moment VS Marss with the dot-eyes pull--you could say it was luck and unbalanced, but it still meant that Samsora had to play the moment right to capitalize on it, giving us a high tension high stakes interaction. And even vs such a play, Marss was able to come back with some explosive moments of his own. We have such character diversity at top level ultimate right now -- it's amazing and I love it, even as a ZSS main myself. The variety of gameplay we get to watch is amazing. Hating on players for the characters they play is so childish -- probably the worst part of the smash community
