>shame the format sucks.
No fun allowed

Also thoughts on Cal aka Toon Leffen?

What's the issue with the format again?

Crews for today

>Toph without Scar

for what purpose?

nothing wrong with it actually, would just be nice if there was a normal bracket as well. But i guess the issue with that would be that people wouldn't take the crews seriously.

>Leffen projected over Mango
Why? Mango has an overwhelming positive set count against Leffen.

There isnt a singles bracket today user

Wait. There's only singles for top 8? What the hell was yesterday for?

It's just a crew battle. I don't blame you for not understanding the format

Gonna be fun

who do we want to win

>no gods singles bracket
DROPPED

What were they thinking?

>leffen on literal television

youtube.com/watch?v=1XyX0aj9agg

its a crew battle format user , 8 teams of 4. No singles bracket at all today, thats the point of the event.

When is aMSa?

Kinda hoping for team AZ + Japan or m2k's crew

>eddy america

fucking kek, mang0 picking one of his subs it looks like

i am aware

Mango, S2J, None and Eddy is my pick

Why the hell did he of all people get on American TV?
They could have put anyone(not m2k) on there and it'd make more sense. Especially since Leffen's english is a bit wonky.

Any team with mango on is guaranteed to buster out.

It's a RedBull event and Leffen is RedBull's player

i can't watch it. leffen nervously stuttering at the start combined with the awkwardness of explaining an esport childrens party game to normies is too much """cringe"" for me.

Rooting for mango's team

boy cant wait to see the same 8-10 people play against eachother in the same exact way for the Nth time

This tournament was designed to get other players in the spotlight man

This format is kind of encouraging players to play each other that wouldn't normally. At least somewhat.

oh look it's the most overrated player in smash, santiago

It's funny that you see this comment every thread, with every event. But, you never ever see these people show interest in any tourney or event that doesn't feature those same 8-10 people.

Okay. I'm confused again. So, it's not the traditional crew rules of pooling stocks together, but they're just playing the games straight and whichever team wins the most wins wins the whole thing?

Leffen's English is really good

our guy swedish

SWEDISH YOU'RE BLEWING IT

win to 3

Plup Club on suicide watch.

Goddamnit, Jason.

should be ft5 desu

why didn't we have a thread like this yesterday?

Redpill me on cal

it was just a vanilla . Melee thread

ft5 takes too long and they're normally reserved for salty suites

There are only 4 people per team.

i kept trying to find "melee", "smash", and "redbull" on Sup Forums catalog and got nothing.

MaTroska Wizzrobe

look for thread with the Melee box art and a period next time

wizzy is seriously the worst

Top players get way too much of a free pass delaying shit. You shouldn't have that long to setup or get 5 minute long hand warmers.

How come Shroomed switched to blue Sheik?

shroomed got screwed

Who Team /JAPAZ/ here?

Reporting in.

Plup got panda. This is the third time he's switched sheik color

Wait so this isn't crews?

What is even happening?

Is it like a crews "set" where it's just a best of 5 but they switch players for each game?

Yeah, I was a bit confused too. They're just playing single games and first to three wins.

yup, and predetermined stages. No PS or FD unless they choose them in GAme 5 teams.

WHAT THE FUCK ZHU

#POORZHU

>ZHUUU

That is Falco.

...

M2K will beat Hugs and Duck will beat MacD

mew2king would you please uncross your legs and arms, you look like a woman.

JUST WOMBO COMBO MY SHIT UP

Why?

Who the fuck thought this was a good idea?

Thank you.

Because its something new, unique and fun you autist. The players wouldnt have came if they thought it was stupid.

Just a slight variation of the crew battle. I think it's a good idea, stops a crew battle from lasting 2 fucking hours

Why hasn't Toph been executed?

>The players wouldn't have came if they thought it wasn't for the red bull money
I mean It could be fun, it's just such a weird thing for an event to make it harder for viewers to understand what is going on.

Other than getting money to do so.

>gods battle
>only 3 out of 5 gods

What did redbull mean by this?

I really hate hbox, but I dont like the fact that a commercial drink is dividing our comunity just because MUH SPONSORS

Is there something about being a manlet that makes you better at Melee?

Is it the faster reactions from shorter distance for brain signals between brain and fingers?

I think the only remotely non-manlet tier top player must be Leffen. Maybe Lucky?

>a commercial drink is dividing our comunity
What are you talking about? Hbox and Armada couldn't attend.

It's monster that's preventing them from going.

Where's PPMD? He must be out of hiatus by now, right?

Why is yoshi's 64 banned again?

Yeah they couldn't attend because Monster sponsors Team Liquid and Alliance.

PP couldn't go anyway since Monster is also synonymous with EG.

Also he's competitively dead.

haha
;_;

this tourney is irrelevant for that reason, but im sick of watching hbox play lame and armada win everything so its whatever

Hbox could and said he wanted to, he's literally streaming himself watch it because he's crying about wanting to go, but monster are a bunch of bitches.

See Monster sill a commercial drink

And yes 2*
Thats worse, there have been smaller events with more gods attendance

Top platform is too high and the clouds can be camped. Characters like Ganondorf and others would be simply completely irrelevant on that stage while others like Peach and Jiggs would almost instantly win by picking it.

Just a couple more months guys!

user, use your brain.

>MacD

I actually like this format better than classic crews, in a way. It's short and exciting and having the captains blind pick before, we don't have to wait for counterpicks and shit.

Was that the best floaty ditto in existence?

I like classic crews more for the comeback potential.

Having one player rip through ten stocks is hype.

there was an 8-minute samus ditto a while back that was the shit

>Having one player rip through ten stocks is hype.
Which is pretty much exactly what would happen here. M2K would just rape the other team since the teams are really imbalanced.

>it's teams now

I don't understand my tiny brain can't into this

yo lowkey the only problem i can see is if the death box is small. if it's not if i ever host a toruny i'll legalize it

YOO WHAT A COMEBACK!

This format is fucking shit, why are they playing teams?

>m2k

four people per team
one person plays one singles game
the tiebreaker (game 5) is teams

Because they have 4 members, but 5 games.

It's first to 3. Game 5 is teams.
It goes like this
>Battlefield
>Yoshi's
>Dreamland
>FoD
>Teams on whatever they strike to

ALSO THAT FUCKING COMEBACK
