The fact that Vaxei was able to set the tournament pp record after coming back is insane. The last time he lost tournament match was back in 2018, so malis did a great job ending Vaxei's streak and ultimately Vaxei went down in an honorable way.
Just vaxei doing vaxei things, leaves for 8 months and comes back for a tourney, does well enough to have an almost even fight against one of the best tourney players over the course of the last 2 years and gets the PP record for tournaments. Nobody can change my mind that vaxei has one of the best mentals in all of OSU!
@@dantesovich7220 Vaxei was holding the "GOAT osu tourney player" title for that long, of course he had the right to get nervous, while Maliszewski literally just lost to mrekk 1v1 like a week before. He doesn't have anything to lose (except for the cash i guess)
If anyone's still thinking that Vaxei technically didn't lose his tournament streak because this was a showmatch and not tournament then his kimi no kioku dt fc isn't a tournament pp record either
it really makes me happy to see this because malis seemed to idolize vaxei, he's passing the torch to the next young dominant tournament beast. crazy to think about but malis was like 10 years old when vaxei won his first OWC lol p.s: love the bowsers inside story music
12:02 Vaxei lost matches since then, just not 1v1 badged tournaments. For example, he lost a match to WubWoofWolf on 2019-04-05 in Game_Osu 3, but came back from the losers bracket to win the whole tournament.
insane performance - vaxei may have been a bit rusty so could it be debatable that he wasnt at his peak like maliszewski - however it was a marvelous show put on by both players and vaxei will always be the goat - cant wait to see what maliszweski brings to the table in the next upcoming years
after a multitude of years of seeing these 2 players play against each other was the most nerve racking game ever. it was the best game i have ever seen.
I know a lot of people said that Vaxei tournament reign "technically" didn't ended because this is a showmatch, but in my opinion if that's the case then we need to discount his tournament pp record too. I love Vaxei, but disregarding maliszewski's win by saying "it doesn't count" just seem unfair
I think these two are really insane at tourneys but u can also not count out mrekk since he beat malis twice in GF of corsace closed I think there is also a case to be made with him since he showed he can compete with the touney gods
mrekk is easily good enough to be the best ever, we saw that in his match in corsace. His consistency and roundedness just needs work, he historically loses to "lesser" competition too often. Whitecat had a similar issue when he played in 1v1 tournaments
If this loss doesn't count then Vaxei didn't get the tournament pp record. Besides, Vaxei himself said in the tourney chat that his 3 year streak is finally broken so I'd say this should definitely count
People in the comment section having cringe war over comparing both great player ignoring this event litteraly made a very rare moment we see for few years in Osu! History.
Vaxei and malis are great osu players. I don't care about the outcome of the match. What I know: Vaxei fc Yomi yori (PoNo map) and Malis fc escape (Kurokotei) No one can do it like them ☺️
People rather forget this type of match is very rare comes around and just care about the goat "titles" and treating these player lime their god with very unrealistic expectation ignoring they are human.
The corsace grand finals showed us one thing: Maliszewski is way more consistent than mrekk, but when it comes to absurd level of difficulty the skill cap of mrekk shines the brightest. I'd still consider Maliszewski to be a better overall tournament player than mrekk, because most tournaments don't go this far with their map pools. I think that Maliszewski still has the potential to increase his mechanics, and I'm looking forward for corsace closed 2024 to see them face off once again on map pools this absurd.
@@galgan05 i never said mrekk was better tournament player than malisz lol, malisz is the best tournament player, but like i saw him as absolutely unbeatable and I've never seen anyone getting more than like 3 points against him, and that match he got destroyed twice in a row and that was for me more shocking than if 1500pp play was set
@@kingoverlorder2094 i mean this match is greater than mrekk vs malisz just simply because it's vaxei vs malisz and because of the price pool and because of the kimi no kioku fc and stuff, but mrekk vs malisz to me was more entertaining and exciting, it just doesn't make it greater imo
as much as it hurts that vaxei lost his spot but that's just me being old ig we are in a new era and change has to happen but u see vaxei and mal have huge respect for each other and vaxei i bet is proud of that mal, vaxei is still on of the best and that will never change but the every king needs to give the throne at some point of there lives it can be the same for mal who knows when but it happens its what makes these fun to watch anything can or could happen
Saying that the torch has been passed on is a bit soon imo. As far as i can see, this just means there's a top 2 rather than top 1. They will meet again in tourney and Vaxei vs malis will be osu's ali vs frazier
@@whenisdinner2137 I honestly don't think he's going to return to tournaments, at least not in a big fashion, considering he turned down the Roundtable II invitation.
mathi, grinds for unique scores for ages finally achieves his first 1k with a pretty epic map, vaxei permazoomer bad mannered elementary schooler kid A few hours later, grinds the same map :D I doubt he can match acc, but it's just cringe how he has no respect what so ever
I think now malis is better than him tho.. From what i saw was just vaxei is Washed and his aim is shaky against another players and kinda inconsistent. Malis play the game all the time and his aim is much more consistent but vaxei not that often compared with malis so the result is kinda obvious, Even on owc vaxei perform not that great compared to his previous owc or 1v1.. If he actually try maybe he might take his tournament king back again, But i think he might actually quit osu this time..
The problem is that corsace grandfinal had near 9 star diff mappool which clearly gave advantage to mrekk since he is on a different level when it comes to skillcap. Look, ristel and mrekk played against each other in Finals when mappool had slightly lower star rating and ristel won 7-4 and sent mrekk to losers bracket. Same thing happened in CPMC last year and ristel won 5-1. The conclusion: If tournament doesnt have almost 9 star mappools ristel beats mrekk in 90% of matches (not 100% bc you never know). Ofc im not trying to downgrade mrekk or anything (I think that recently he became top 2 tournament player in the game), Im just sharing my opinion. :)
@@NucleareQ I agree with you but you can't take CPMC as an exemple because mrekk was at roundtable at this time and didn't sleep a lot and time to practice the pool + the fact that he was not on his usual setup.
@@NucleareQ I think that if mrekk dedicates himself to be better at tournies with lower diff mappools he can probably become unbeatable #1 tourney player but this would give lifeline a chance to pass him in rank 1
idk if he said this in the video but this isn't a tournament loss, it's just a showmatch. also i'm pretty sure he lost an individual match to Toy during his reign but just clawed his way to a win through losers bracket. not sure though. shouthout to maliszewski he's one of my biggest inspirations for aim control and tech
You're looking at a washed bacon vs a peak mali, give them until the next tournament setting to see who is will be the best . However this is a good show match to open he's eyes to what is coming.
2 times in the same day on the same mappool, like meh it dosent mean much for now, we will se if he consistently beats him, + malis also beat mrekk earlyer in corcase and before corcase ass well sooo
@@nhiil4495 my guess is mrekk can beat him only on mappools so hard that only he can set consistent scores. Mrekk has the skill cap but not the necessary consistency to beat him on a mappool where they are both comfortable, as we saw a week before corsace grand finals. Corsace GF mappool was one of the hardest if not the hardest mappool that there is when it comes to tournaments this caliber, so most of the times if mrekk and maliszewski meet during a tournament, maliszewski will win, unless there is a near 9 star mappool, which is very rare.
Lmao how does this make maliszewski the goat of tournament play? I mean vaxei’s legacy outweighs everything malizewski has done in tournament just from the sheer dominance and amount of time vaxei has reigned over the osu top players, I mean I like vaxei and I’m aware that I’m kinda blowing him off rn but I genuinely do not think maliszewski has reached a point or will ever reach a point where he has a legacy more polarising and outrageous..
If Vaxei plays the game consistently (very unlikely) he'll remain undefeated. His DT is still at a very good point, speed lacking and consistency rusty. Vaxei 2020-2021 would still be undefeated.
I know this is me coping, but technically that was no tournament, it was merely a 1v1 duel because people wanted to find out who would win. Speaking from my own opinions, this technically means neither of them have lost a tournament in a while.
