I'm more surprised that Riddles is still able to get top positions with just fighting characters. Like, for example, how on earth is Kazuya supposed to beat characters like Samus, who commonly arrive in bracket, or Pikachu But I believe he does somehow need to improve to beat Tweek and Sparg0
@@dogyX3ya he needs to play terry more. I think terry is a far more versatile pick that can allow him to compete better, but he really needs to play and practice terry, it won’t as easy to just switch to him.
@@Yokai_Yuri Kazuya needs to double input forward on the ground. That's a huge commitment since he basically has to make a special input while heading directly towards the projectile. He needs to get a read. This is not on reaction. It's also a ground based reflector, he can't use while airborne. Ye, Samus could die in 1 hit if they shoot a full charge shot. But then they just don't need to shoot a full shot. She still has plenty of kill and damage options.
Miya, now Tweek, people are figuring out your characters, Riddles. That said, he seemed like he was playing off or something like the pressure was getting to him.
He's a phenomenal player, but you can tell that nerves take hold when Riddles is in a tough spot and it absolutely affects his gameplay. He's young, give him time and I'm sure he will shake em.
@@oscar19831_ tweet already had momentum after battling kazuya. Terry usually have a better shot and beat tweet at times. Tweet like the rest of other players figure the Kazuya game play out. Just don't play close and keep jumping
Tweek's Diddy is not only absolutely clean, he's also smart as they get! Look at last game, how fast he moves, there are basically no right moves for Riddles, makes him look like entry level
brother what? Tweek wifted a forwar air and Riddles punished it with a forward air. How is that ban worthy??????? That's a normal air to air interaction
Goddamn. Riddles is an amazing player, but it’s obvious Tweek is far more skilled than he is. This is what happens when someone better than you figures out your janky character. Not pretty at all. 😅
@@jaydenhohman2590 More like he’s carried by that style of character. Super ridiculous up close so you HAVE to keep them away from you and make good use of any zoning, spacing tools onto going in to punish when it’s necessary. Trying to brawl will get you killed. Idk why it doesn’t get talked about as much but the shotos are jank nonsense as well. Yes that includes Terry, he’s functionally a shoto.
@@riotron1026 You're ignoring the fact that Terry has a bad disadvantage, a dogshit recovery that doesn't even snap ledge, and CANNOT deal with camping. So yeah, he has really good brawling up close, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have glaring issues
@@EclipsingMomentum getting top 10 wins isn’t bracket luck. Tweek’s BOBC was basically two top 25 losses (Maister, Zomba) and two top 7-8ish wins (Riddles, Light). This is a pretty mediocre tournament for a top 3 player, but it’s way way better than Leo, who beat Skyjay and Ouch (top 25, top 50 respectively) and lost to Zomba and Kameme (top 25, top 15). Tweek had a better tournament. Placings are generally not super relevant; both panels and algorithms weight wins and losses higher. In fact, usually a run with two top 10 wins doesn’t end at 9th (for example, take Yoshidora, who actually didn’t beat a single top 10 player and got 7th with a best win of Dabuz.) That’s bracket luck.
He got 17th at a super major with only Richter. Now that he switched from Richter to a character that isn't trash you guys are wondering why he gets into top 8 almost every single tournament. Literally proves nothing except the fact that he is easily one of the best players in the world.
Everyone can say anything about riddles, they downloaded him. But the remarks before about character banning, anyone who watches knows the characters I’m talking about and who said what. Lab the character, learn the opponent, it’s part of the game. So those who chose to ban characters because of laziness gets 0 views from me.
@@Pj_901 It is also heavily matchup dependent. Characters who can essentially zone him (either with long range attacks or with movement that keeps them out of Kazuya's range) are well suited to beating him. Character who need to get up close and box are basically invalidated by all the immunity and DLC jank he is given. DLC FP2 needs a heavy handed rebalancing to bring these fighters in line with base characters. All that said, even if there is no patch ever issues (which looks likely to be the case) Steve is the only character who should be banned.
Oh my god. This needs to be rated R
Lmfaoo. MA
For riddles?
@@noggie3041 yes games 2 and 3 tweek died only because he SD. This was extremely tough to watch
PG-13
The little traps Tweek laid 😭😭 His gameplay is so good
5:32 absolutely filthy
As long as Tweek and Sparg0 are in bracket I don't see Riddles winning another major anytime soon. Both of them have the download on his play style.

I like riddles (he’s the reason I got into Terry) but man do I love seeing kazuya lose
This heaven to my eyes
Watching players make riddles suffer when playing Kazuya is satisfying to watch
FINALLY ! Someone with a brain edge guarding kazuya instead of mindlessly standing at ledge letting him recover for free.
Right
That’s chase for you
beautiful set, just waiting on tweek vs light

Tweek always has beaten Riddles xD nothing new, Diddy is tough matchup for Kazuya.

Riddles actually still has the set count on Tweek 5-4. While Tweek won their last 2 encounters Riddles won 3 sets in a row before that.

Damn! Tweek makes Diddy look OP
I am glad to see riddles humbled. I appreciate the gap here.

I wish they played in top 8
This player mu is always fun to watch
🤝
9:09 Oh so its not just me, it happens to pros too. Kazuya's jab is stupid
diddy kong is quite the character
Jesus, its the hard callout mu for Kaz. Diddy neutral is abysmal for the FGCs 😢
Riddles had a pretty unfortunate bracket. First Sisqui, and then Tweek is upset by Maister of all people and stops Riddles losers run.
Maister Mr game and watch is tweet worst nightmare. He hate playing again him
Should of been like beastly imo
Kazuya (or any DLC character) getting rekt by amazing gameplay and no BS is so satisfying, bro
Would agree but it’s being done with diddy who’s more cringe and unfun to fight than any dlc character
@@mercurysnake274This is why nobody has ever cared about what you have to say.
@@AviorGloria I would rather fight 10 kazuyas in a row then 1 diddy. I hate him
The vultures have been waiting. I’m glad they can eat their decomposing meat.
Monitor on fire
13:27 is the reason I hate fighting Terry. Not just no end lagg on down b but not even when you parry it 🙄
?? Tweek jumped, he obviously messed it up, all riddles did was just mash at disadvantage lol
tweek losing that first game was so cheese hahahah
Tweek have a clinic. Beast
What i would do to see riddles face after this set
Always love seeing Riddles when he loses tbh
Imagine hating on players 💀 go fuck urself
Get good

@harymaby "smash players will hate you personally because of your main" is what i've been told before entering this community. You guys are pathetic.
Everyone talks bad about Kazuya, but I want to say something. I think both Kazuya and Diddy are disgusting characters.

I've been waiting to watch this set again. 6:15 Ban Kazuya obviously. It shouldn't even be a discussion.
Don't bother
