Here'a hoping either aklo or the loser of zain/leffen can beat llod or aMSa's REALLY got his work cut out for him. I've been waiting since his summit 6 win against hbox for him to take a major and you'd best believe I'm tuning in tomorrow to watch this man make his run
I'm very surprised to see Leffen, who's had controller issues, and hasn't practiced since LACS 4 and just came to have a good time, is in Winners Semis, meanwhile iBDW, who just came off a good performance at Genesis 8, sits eliminated just outside of Top 8
@@hipwitthekids793 he has beat Kodorin and amsa before so don't blame it on a tough bracket. He just got outplayed but he's still top 3 player no matter what
@@TheRealMallard Well yea, but those are still both top 10 players. It was still a rough bracket for IBDW. Ofc he did get outplayed, but its still rough. And the only reason he fought Amsa in losers that early is because Amsa got upset too.
@@TheRealMallard I wouldn't say "top 3 no matter what", Pound and Genesis are proving that the "Mango-Zain-Cody tier" they were trying to establish last year doesn't hold up anymore and the current landscape is just Zain as a clear #1 with everyone else constantly getting upset (I looked at stats from LACS4, G8, and so far at Pound, and every single player who has an argument for top 10 has been upset in bracket at least once except for Zain, who hasn't dropped a single set all year (and Leffen but there's less data for him))
@@eragon78 yeah but amsa also had a tough bracket and overcame it. I just feel like your giving ibdw excuses for losing when he was seeded second so should've at least made top 8 based on skill alone
@@Silent_Tentacle that’s assuming Zain beats leffen right? 👀 idk Leffen is a huge wild card. Even though zain destroyed jmook last week, Leffens a different beast with his sheik vs especially zains marth
@@yoush3599 I completely forgot leffen has a sheik that 5-1'd zain 3 months ago. This leaves us with a situation: either zain's done his homework and beats leffen sheik (likely imo), then amsa faces leffen in losers and might have a chance. OR. Zain loses to leffen, and amsa faces zain in losers and well, its zain.
you'd realise how sick amsa is, a true pioneer. im not good at the game but the idea of playing yoshi doesnt seem fun because i would not be nearly as sick as amsa, while fox or marth etc u can do most of the essential stuff pretty easily
yoshi is a really hard character, it would take you a whiile before getting thoses results manage your expectations and enjoy the progress you make everyday, best way to get good at melee is to have fun with it
He's got a tough road. He's had close sets against fiction but hasn't beaten. Then if he wins that, he'll probably face Leffen who beats him pretty bad, but it's been a few years since they last fought, so we'll see what happens.
The issue is that he's already in losers and if he wants to win the tourney he'll need to beat a bunch of players including (most likely) Zain twice. And keep in mind that Zain has not dropped a single set this year yet and has only dropped 1 game this tourney so far (to Logan) so he's a gigantic wall in aMSa's path. I do hope he can pull it off though, that would be so sick (and honestly maybe even give him an argument for 2nd in the world atm)
I've been critical of Amsa in the past, but seeing all his hard work during the pandemic come to fruition in this tournament really is proof that yoshi can be a viable character. And if not, he's possibly the most hype, sorry Hbox.
The game with him and H box trying to kill each other and playing super aggressive is amazing. Really puts a mute on everyone saying h box is campy because that was nothing but beats in that game. I just love when someone is putting a character together that isn't popular because it means the game is far from space furriers.
I have not seen another Yoshi like aMSa, their punish and combo game are seriously ridiculous! How do they come up with this stuff and then the egg throws as well like it all ties in this awesome yoshi gameplay
Haha whoever say yoshi is a low tier is such a block head haha just follow the crowd as you do. May Insecurity and the lack of imagination lay you stagnant. :)
@@leeroyjenkins6628 It just seems like you're being salty. Unless attendees make a habit of coming within 6 feet of the commentators, I don't see it being much of a concession to anyone's safety.
I’m not even a Melee guy and I always make sure to watch all of Amsa’s sets. His play is so saucy
Idk man sounds like you're now a "melee guy" 😉
LETS GO AMSA! He always seems like he has the potential to make an amazing run but comes just short of one, hope Pound 2022 is the time

Well it is now
big house ended up being his time
Cody beats someone: quick fist bump
Someone beats Cody: gets up in their grill, handshake, hug, whispers in their ear
What we don't see is the kiss and a ass slap
need
Lmaooooo
I say this in chat LOL when I come up I don’t want the Cody hug 🤗

If Amsa beats Zain is gonna be legendary. One can dream
He’s gotten really close before. One of these days he has to I believe it
I think amsa has a huge chance at making grands. But he has to beat zain twice to win pound :(

aMSa is sooo sick. I don't play Melee, but if I did I would want to play Yoshi just based on how cool aMSa's Yoshi is.

I had the same feeling, then realized how fucking hard playing yoshi is, and struggle to do even like 1% of what Amsa does.... Its actually insane.
2:32 Wow, I never thought I'd see the day, the Yoshi "Legendary Head Stretch Attack" in play.
tf is that animation lol i want to see what they did to it in brawl (if they kept 100% getups) it looks deliciously jank
Spoilers:
This finally looks like amsa's run. He beat ibdw(one of his demons) and n0ne is out (amsa lost to n0ne in genesis 8)
thanks for adding the spoilers
@@hipwitthekids793 no problem!
he lost to zain at genesis 8 too, would be cool to see a rematch

4:13 lol, you can hear bacon getting hit by that iconic falcon punch from Sean in the background.
Unfortunate for IBDW going out at 9th. Super fun set to watch. Amsa is a legend.
God amsa last stock game 5 looks so fucking terrifying when he started popping off it looks insurmountable to beat him!
Wow I just looked at the top 8 bracket. Amsa has a serious chance of making it to grand finals here!
11:57 he called amsa alexa lmfao
Loved the commentary and references, hope to see you guys at the next tournament!
Pound doesn't have frozen stadium?
When Kodorin beat ibdw I was like “RIP aMSa” so needless to say I popped off hard when aMSa got the dub.
I've been critical of Amsa in the past, but seeing all his hard work during the pandemic come to fruition in this tournament really is proof that yoshi can be a viable character. And if not, he's possibly the most hype, sorry Hbox.
12:28 ...
cancel aMSa
no, cancel commentator?
I dunno who but it's time to light some torches
Why is stadium unfrozen
Who are the commentators?
Pretty sure that last hit was off of a parry. Amsas crazy
4:11 my god
10:47 filthy
if that’s what filth is, i never wanna see cleanliness again.
I don’t know if it was a glitch but I had ads literally every 30 seconds this video
Amsa hype
The game with him and H box trying to kill each other and playing super aggressive is amazing. Really puts a mute on everyone saying h box is campy because that was nothing but beats in that game. I just love when someone is putting a character together that isn't popular because it means the game is far from space furriers.
wat
The commentator calling everyone they was really annoying to try to follow
the tail whale. Commentary is really good! loving it truly.
I have not seen another Yoshi like aMSa, their punish and combo game are seriously ridiculous! How do they come up with this stuff and then the egg throws as well like it all ties in this awesome yoshi gameplay
The noggin floggin
LETS GOOOO AMSA
Yes!
Let's goooooo amsa😫😫😫😫💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💪💪💪🥚🥚🥚🥚
always root for aMSa, or anyone going against iBDW
Such a shame that this tournament doesnt count because stadium transformations
Dude the commentary was okay, but every now and then the tangents on whether animals can be king just went for way too long LMAO
I’m sure Cody will have an excuse for such a poor performance this tournament
yeah him and juan were kissing exchanging johns on the way home in the cab i seen it
@@Parpeing What would hbox have to john for? Rn he's in winner's semifinals
@@thebenis3157 I would assume the moment i said "kissing in the cab" would be your queue to go "Oh thats not real"
@@Parpeing I didn't think you were serious, just wondering why you picked hbox of all people
Does ibdw john?
aMSa the absolute eggod
Didn’t expect Latin knowledge to come out but kinda funny lol
Definitely not cause he played poorly , sips tea on sd on first stock of game 5 o/.0/
Haha whoever say yoshi is a low tier is such a block head haha just follow the crowd as you do. May Insecurity and the lack of imagination lay you stagnant. :)
I like how the current meta is just FK 🦊
wat
if almost every one plays fox, every one knows how to beat one. especially true if you play an unpopular character such as yoshi
first lmao
Why do the players have to wear a mask but not the commentators? .. Makes no sense.
Because a mask muffles their speech a bit, which impacts the viewing experience even if just a bit.
@@jonathanlgill Ah I see, so this isn't about our health. That's kind of what I figured.
@@leeroyjenkins6628 I've always been pro mask but at this point with covid not being as big of a deal it's dumb how players are forced to wear them.
@@leeroyjenkins6628 It just seems like you're being salty. Unless attendees make a habit of coming within 6 feet of the commentators, I don't see it being much of a concession to anyone's safety.
@@TheRealMallard Exactly. It's been over two years. This obviously isn't about our health anymore.
