@@arthurboyle7982 definitely, we should consider him a high tier. You'll see a surge of Yoshi's soon, mark my words lol. Actually, even now we have so many high level Yoshis. Idk how anyone can say the character is middle of the pack. The character is very good. Maybe top 6
I can’t wait to see Slug getting better and better going forward! It looked impossible in the beginning but he adapted hard and made the set real interesting! I think he could be a aMSa case eventually where he’s so labed out he could beat anyone given enough time!
That's true. It was a long period of time where people thought Amsa simply couldn't beat certain matchups no matter how well he played yoshi. slug definitely showing signs he can already tho, which is crazy. big fan of slug, rooting for him every tournament in the future as watching high level icies is very entertaining
against amsa who has only recently been doing good after already taking out or doing well against multiple other top players did it ever seem impossible?
@@lounowell4171 No, lol. Every single player not named Armada has lost to an Icies. Wobbles, Chudat, Dizzkid, Nintendude, every single one of them has made upsets
@@cottonmather8146 I don't mean top players I just mean players in general, ICs are pretty uncommon If we're talking about like any loss to ICs ever btw Amsa has lost to Zenji's ICs in 2013
That's crazy. aMSa blew up SluG in Winners but I strangely feel like they both did better here wtf. That game 4 was wild. aMSa canNOT take SluG lightly.
Yoshi vs Ice Climbers at top 8. What a timeline for mid tiers.
Majors this year have been amazing, a great year of Melee.
A good flashback to Kings of Cali 4 where amsa and fly amanita became my favorite players
I think it's time we consider Yoshi a high tier
@@MrSlowpez10definitely not, amsa is just insane

Nice to see ICs performing again in both games. SluG and Big D played insane.
Bro Slug is a real one, but having to go against aMSa twice is brutal. Not sure any Icey in history could win a Bo5 against aMSa in his current form
Amsa is incedible, he's winning so much with YOSHI ! Also props to Slug, very nice run !

Amazing run Slug!!! Keep aiming for the top!
4th place Ice Climbers is very high, wow!
@@11equalsfish He also got 4th place at the Ludwig Smash Invitational beating Mang0 and Jmook!
@@nevohyams and 4th at double down beating zain and kodorin

8:54 best of Nana clip
*AMSa having a little stare down with Nana* LOL
nice spacing, nana!
I love seeing Amsa win, but I hate seeing Slug go.
A much more competitive set than it looked like it would be in the 1st minute.
My mind kept seeing flashes of that Amsa vs Chudat set from Apex 2014…
Slug made that look extremely possible
against amsa who has only recently been doing good
after already taking out or doing well against multiple other top players
did it ever seem impossible?
@@lounowell4171 i don't think amsa has ever lost to an ICs
@@habrosguitar I'd wager the majority of competitive players have never lost to an ICs
fair point tho

Fr. ICs and Yoshi in top 8 in 2022. That is crazy but so damn fun to watch lmao
Very good matches, slug SDs a few times against amsa in both rounds. Without those, its doable.
9:05 nana does a meteor cancel
Lol “we don’t talk about doctors today”. Great matches
Love seeing Icies in top 8
Cool matchup to watch
As long as HBox and aMSa exist, SluG will never win anything unfortunately.
Cody too :(
This makes me think about when ChuDat lost in GF to HBox via timeout
Nana confirmed better than hbox
Slug
Yoshi just moved up to 4th best character!
That's crazy.
aMSa blew up SluG in Winners but I strangely feel like they both did better here wtf.
That game 4 was wild. aMSa canNOT take SluG lightly.
Slug is top 6 in the game next year
allow wobbling you cowards
So great to watch ICs get destroyed. Most cringe character on this game.
But slug plays them like an absolute giga chad so refreshing
Nah bro ICs are sick. They're fun to play too. I feel like every character whos good in this gane has some level of cringe tbh
