I love how upset Alpharad is by the end of the tournament. It's like setting up an anarchy just to be disappointed in how degenerate people are acting when there are practically no rules in place.
To be fair, fist numb was the right option considering they used opposite hands. One of their hands would have had to be upside down for it to even kind of work lol
17:40 It seems that Void still hasn’t learn his lesson about hitting the fake Smash Ball the first time from last year during Alpharad’s Casual Invitational tournament at Frostbite 2019.
this is the way smash was meant to be played: extremely talented and skilled players having a good time, memeing, and winning from random luck as the screen is nothing but bright colors, characters, and music. I love it
I feel like this must be Sakurai's favorite tournament because he always says how he wants people to use items more and stages other than Final Destination and Battlefield type stages
27:50 Marss pulling off the cleanest sequence ever just to die to stage morph is amazing and exactly what should be happening in a casual invitational.
Watching this live and being a part of the crown was genuinely some of the most fun I’ve had in a while. Thank you for coming out and hosting, frostbites really a great event, and I’m excited for next year
6:36 Hearing Megalovania just "casually" play in a tournament seems weird Especially without Alpharad making any jokes about it, even though he's become sans-ational for joking about the song
For anyone watching at a later time doubting this comment: my notification says the video was uploaded 39 minutes ago and this comment was 35 minutes ago, so this guy did actually guess it right
In my experience, the most fun way to play casuals with items is for everyone to go snake (this works for free for all, not just 1v1), and everyone place a sticky C4 onto another person. Then run back to starting positions and actually start the fight. For best results use on Mario maker with all items except dragoon turned on, 5 stock, stage morph optional, and try not to camp. Repeat the process of gentleman’s stick every time two people are on a fresh stock at the same time
Please, we need to start some form of “casual competitive”, with still some form of rules (like maybe not every item allowed), but still allow certain things that are normally banned in competitive. Aka more stages, allow certain items, have Smash meter on, maybe 5 stocks since you probably die faster... competitive Smash is great, but it’s honestly so fun to watch gimmicky stuff happening with top players.
Peterson Byrd I’m okay with all those except I personally think Mushrooms are good as long as Poison Mushrooms are also in. Same logic applies if both Smash and Fake Smash Balls are in.
We NEED some casual tierlists asap. Characters, items, heck, maybe even allow spirit teams to find out the most broken combos. This game has a potential that has yet to be uncovered to its full extent. Looking forward to next years casual invitational!
This is what you call a perfect world. This is what some would call the “summit” of the mountainous journey ofsuper smash brothers ultimate for the nintendo switch
Not going to lie, this is some of the hypest smash gameplay I’ve seen in ages. I hope this grows more and becomes an actual thing because it’s so fun to watch
@@deadlyfungus15 Not saying they don't have fun playing that way, but a friendly match with items seems more relaxing than getting sniped by a Pac Man main.
I heard frostbite 2020 was coming up and this was the first thing I thought of. Alpharad has managed to turn a major into a casual tournament, what a madlad
Im laughing at them mentioning m2k knows how to drop hammer when he only learn cause he died vs salem due to it and salem shown you could drop it teasing him about it.
I was not expecting to see this in my recommended today. I am pleasantly amused and laughed the entire way through. Props to the players and to the announcer's man, they made it fun to watch the shenanigans known as casual smash bros.
The great thing about this tournament is that it is less getting first place, but with connecting with other competitive smashes and just having fun. That's the beauty of casual games. Even if you lose, you can have so much fun
I think screw jump is possibly the best item. With the right character, like Samus or ZSS, you can 0 to death off the top 2 maybe even 3 times before it runs out. I also think beam sword is really powerful, bat is a fantastic throwing item. The boomerang is also deceptively powerful. My favorite item is possibly the scythe, screw attack, and boomerang.
I was watching story for glory earlier. Can we just appreciate the growth Alpha made, from being your average small smash channel to have about 2 mil subscribers and hosting his own tournaments?
This is such a breath of fresh air! Think I enjoy watching this more than regular competitive smash ngl. Fun to see the banter between players as well.

I love how upset Alpharad is by the end of the tournament. It's like setting up an anarchy just to be disappointed in how degenerate people are acting when there are practically no rules in place.
What do you mean?
It’s just to set up an anarchy only for people to return to democracy
Alpharad: I can't wait for casual Smash chaos!
Casual Smash Chaos: * screams in Pac-Man vs. Ice Climbers *
Alpharad: No not like that
Funny how they talk as if they've been doing this more than twice
"Every year"
Well the game has only been out for a little over a year.
