I can relate to Cosmos’s explaining his decline getting to him. It’s one thing to be considered a joke and laughing it off but when people unintentionally make you seem like you’re a joke when their trying to be supportive it takes a massive toll.
karma for his Summit incentives back in Smash 4. 🤷🏽
Yea I mean I'm sure that the whole bet that EE made with him was to try and motivate him. So at the very least even if he lost the bet, he started thinking about all this a bit more seriously I guess. He also mentioned something else got him to realize that he still likes to compete and wants to do better. So if anything he sounds motivated now more than before at least.
@@slukass9631huh? Can you explain?
@@slukass9631 what were his incentives for summit?
@@slukass9631wait , what did he do ??
Marss didn’t quit when it got tough, he quit when he saw that he could get the money with much less amount of work lol. Smart guy.
Lmao low key
Nah. You don't go from being someone who wants to be #1 to folding for some extra money. He tuckered out.
The most acceptable John
@@PointProvenCould be both, end of the day bro still needs to pay the bills
@@splaturials9156 marss when he tries still gets top 8 at majors 😭
He literally gets ranked 25-35 while only going to like 4 events a year. He aint washed he just doesnt give a fuck
I cryed when I see Light hug Kaninabe, cuz Kaninabe always talks how he loves and respects Light in his streeming, you're the reason why Kaninabe play Fox. And I am happy that Light win Fox ditto, that loss will make Kaninabe stronger. Having big goal is very good for him, Light is to Kaninabe what Mihawk is to Zoro.
By the way, Kaninabe has Seph as sub main and he is well known for Seph killer, so I think that's the reason Tweek don't play Seph.
Light has to stay sharp. #1 in the world, #1 in America? If he isn't careful he won't be the #1 fox for long.
@@TehWhiteTigerI doubt he'll lose number 1 fox. He's not number 1 in the world tho. Ngl we kind of at a 3 way tie
Massive props to EE and his editor for getting this episode ready to be uploaded for TH-cam at the same day they streamed this episode live on Twitch. Sonix was a delight as always and congrats to him for winning Port Priority 8, the jokes and banter as well were on point today as well 😂
We do our best
tbf, when its uncut there isnt much to edit, but regardless, impressive
It’s fun to poke fun at cosmos but not enough is said about how overwhelmingly positive and bright that brothers light is. Respect. Honestly cosmos should just do what makes him happy and not put do pressure on himself
We need Marss and Light together for the next episode
EE PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN
WE NEED THIS DRAMA
JERRY! JERRY!
Cosmos is so positive despite all the criticism. Rly respectable.
I didn’t quite understand like if I say “hey I hope you do well this tournament!” That’s somehow weighing down on him?
@@5hyguy42 he specifically said ppl who went up to him and said "you are doing bad." So I don't think it's what you are talking about.
@@angels.8081 dope
It seems like a lot of the criticism is people trying to be in on the jokes that light and ee make. But when it's coming from random people and not your friends it's probably just uncomfortable
@@Furiac. I was JUST about to say this. Audience members form parasocial relationships with youtubers and then act like they know them irl. Start using their inside jokes and everything. Really weird behavior.
huge respect to sonix. his work ethic is actually insane and he’s had the fastest rise to the top i’ve ever seen. plus he makes sonic enjoyable to watch with his unique approach to it.
I mean Miya and あcola got Nr.1 and Nr.2 on their first Major so they are beyond crazy for that. However I will not disagree that Sonix is the Goat and I also love watching him play
Wrong on two things lol
If Sonix is interested, I hope the podcast could have him on as a common side host/guest like Kola and Marss. He is one of the best players in the world, good banter with the rest of the cast, and has cool insights.
Light proving Marss wrong and talking back at Marrs remarks from last podcast was nice to see too 😂
31:33 that synced peace sign from Void and Sonix was cool
The amount of times Sonix has made my jaw drop with his combo game and advantage state is wild. He deserved this W for sure and he BETTER get signed by LG
He could be getting offers from other orgs after winning Port too
He already got signed by Luminosity. They said it a couple of times in their recent shorts
@@lucayaki Are you talking about a long term signing or just the temporary signing that we know about?
@@drakejoshofficialyoutubech5569 I might have accidentally spread misinformation, because I didn't know about a temporary signing, I just saw them talking about *a* signing. My fault
I hope a good amount of you cheer for Sonix for more than just this event.
Guy is really chill, nice, profesional and very hard working. And he has been playing very fast and agressive throughout most of the year. I don't like how Sonic is designed in Smash but Sonix himself deserves so much more recognition.
Sonix is actually ridiculous he actually looks unbeatable a lot of the time
it was a huge brain move by marss to trash talk his friend light before the event. it clearly helped motivate him to place well
38:30 - Miya is superbased. We need this energy for top players now that marss is gone
1:05:47 - that anger from EE was real. No more spinning blue jims 🔵🔵🔵
New episode before Tweek talks? EE is a bit different!
Bro, Sonix has the best championship mentality I've probably ever heard from a smash pro. Dude sounds like Kobe Bryant.
Facts
"I did not like the way grands turned out, i did not like dropping games ro miya" is the most terrifying shit ive heard all day. Ggs to sonix
alright yeah, i'm a sonix fan now after having watched this tourney. i fell victim to the sonix-hater-to-fan-pipeline, but hes just such a respectable and determined competitor its crazy
thanks for the content ee one of my favs in this community.
i really hope cosmos is able to bounce back he’s also 1 of my fav players to watch. i got faith in the boy
Thank you so much for the side stream during the event unc! Really took the event to the next level with that lil relaxed corner u had going on, appreciate it and keep it up!
Lights been my favorite player since the start of this game. Been solo Fox since day one. That set between you and kaninibe was the highlight of this game so far imo. You can tell he was stoked to do so well against the best fox in the world.
If sonix starts a streak of majors off this he has to keep coming on each time after winning lol
That'll be my new favorite bit
SO GREAT TO SEE SONIX BACK ON TOP. Loved the way sonix dominated acola miya and the rest of his bracket
That light Kaninabe set has to be one of the top matches of all time
Lights out should organize a salty set between light and marss. It would be insanely entertaining and give the two a chance to run ones😂🤙🏼
Idk bro, egos that big having a salty set is how you end up with a "cringe smash moments compilation"
it’s just banter, relax
@@Senaru Banter is how it always starts until someone gets their feelings hurt
Shoutout to Light for being so real. He's become my favorite player through watching these podcasts
You guys are really staying on top of it! Great episode and congrats to Sonic for winning the most competitive event in smash history.
SHOUTOUT TO MY BOY, LIGHT. I called it. I knew he was gonna bounce back and those games against acola and miya looked good. Fox bouta be a menace to deal with for Japan and kanninabe about to show em why. Keep grinding cosmos, you gonna get it. Kudos to Sonix and EE this content fire af bro, Keep cookin yall 🔥
Sonix is such a G! Thank you guys for interviewing him again
EE this podcast is amazing keep that grind up. Sending prayers your way now that 2 sonic players are at watch the throne lol
Appreciate it bro 🤣
Light calling out Marss got me crying laughing
He had to get that off his chest clearly LOL
Best episode yet. Your stories and insights to Port Priority 8 were so much fun to hear as a fan of Smash who watched the whole event. How can anyone hate Sonix (the player) after listening. His dedication to this game is legendary. He has earned our respect with a character most of us dislike.
KEN has been one of my fav players for a long time now.. hes also been ranked nr1 in japan before and always a threat. Put some respekt on mah man!
I like how when they were talking about meta relevant characters it evolved into “characters with good neutral, advantage, and disadvantage are good”. Truly insightful commentary from our top players 👏
Sonix's participation on recent episodes have been delightful, hope to see more of him in the future!
Sonix is honestly a legend. I’m glad the community is giving him more credit and praise now
I love the enthusiasm from these guys, I haven’t felt this way about a tournament in a while and I’m glad they feel the same way
Cosmos, if you're reading, I would highly suggest having Nairo as your coach again. I know he's helped you at tournaments in the past , even when you would contact him directly after sets. Nairo is just that guy, and I'm sure he'll be more than happy to help.
I don't care what anyone says, you got this!!💪🏼
Love you Cosmos
People jealous of your success will always cheer when you have a temporary trip-up. This will make it all the better when you get back on top of things
Bro said "Smash bros speaks for itself"
This EE KEN beef is fantastic, I have absolutely no idea where it started from or what but it's hilarious. Looking forward to the interactions and possible skits at wtt!
It's any commentator's beef with sonic lol
Sonix is actually a good guest for a podcast. Glad that he won Imo he for sure is the best in the world atm. Ee the last podcast you had a segment about films and other games. I actually loved that. Integrating your other hobbies makes the podcast more diverse. Imo keep that up.
Cosmos u have won Majors fam ur a good player. Rededicate to Aegis and realize u have the potential to be top 10. If u play disadvantage better Cosmos u ll succeed ez. Nerves get to everyone but u kno what u can do so do it. Good Luck and Stay Blessed. Light Hell yea stand on business my guy they call u out call them out I'm with ya. EE ur good ppl stay blessed to u and Light
It's always interesting to see the insight of a player like Sonix. When he specifically mentioned characters whom are good at recovering and getting off the ledge, it made me think of not only the characters that have decent to great recoveries, but the players who are very good at getting out of disadvantage and recovering too. Players like Skyjay or Peanut use easily exploitable characters, but their recovery paths are top tier and their results speak for themselves: Skyjay is a constant threat in the current meta now, and Peanut always seems to pop into tournament results and surprise casters whenever his Little Mac makes it back to stage.
Feel bad for Cosmos, but glad to see him pushing through it. The jokes are always funny, but I do empathize with him, it sucks to be so passionate about something and feel it slipping away from you like that.
Sonix got the dub AND had the crowd was behind him. Great day for him!
Sad to see what happened to my boy Zomba, but congrats to Light and Sonix! They played phenomenally and I think we'll only see them improve after this!
Do you know what happened to his twitter?
Even back in MomoCon 2022, I’ve been thinking that with the way Sonix pilots sonic and being the grinder he is, it is just a matter of time when he reaches the top of the world.
So glad that the result of Sonix’s efforts are on full display in the most stacked tournament ever.
Persona music at the start, some 🐐 shit right there. Awesome episode, as always you guys!
This and the podcast with sonix previously, along with his performance has made me appreciate his mindset and playstyle more, even if the camping can be boring
Releasing before the Tweek Yaps podcast that's why Lights out is 🔛🔝📣🐐
Tweek Talks now scheduled for Monday mornings at 6am
The Sonix eps have been my favorite of the whole show. Get this man on more podcast episodes.
Need more Sonix cosmos scoot over Jim 😂😂 No but really this episode felt short and was super entertaining good shit yall ❤️
THE BEST PODCAST RETURNS
Really enjoyed this episode, so much to comment on!
Nothing but respect to Sonix, a professional through and through (no more 🔵🔵 jims tho please haha)
I really hope Cosmos can feel better in the near future, he's a great dude and he deserves respect.
And finally props to Light and EE for always keeping it real and entertaining, can't wait for Watch the Throne!
Sonix basically adopting acola goes to show how cracked ddee would be if he actually traveled
Mans vibed out sonix just for the memes
Fantastic episode! Might actually be the best from the drama, insight, mentality, and vulnerability.
i’ve been a die hard tweek talks supporter since episode one, but seriously, lights out is absolutely the best smash podcast out there
Damn EE, you wasted no time pumping this episode out. Port was a great event and glad Sonix won it. Love watching his matches.
Another banger ! Christmas came early ! I thought it was Wednesday 😂
25:20 light's dog and sonix's cat are so cute
27:03 its awesome that sonix committed fully to beating steve and, well, now he's really good at beating steve
most players need to be like sonix here
Caught it live, so just stopping by to drop a like!
I can’t get hype for the spinning blue jims, but man sonix is a cool dude, so it’s hard not to be happy for his success
Early episode is insane, expecting this to be a banger if its violating the schedule.
Can all yall saying that Light and Marss is just banter not read a room and kinda tell Light was legit a little upset at that? Like everyone is acting like its all jokes but light didn't seem like he was playing.
The Light, Kaninabe rivalry reminds me of the Momochi, Chris T rivalry in street fighter. It was always one of the most hype sets at any SF tournament. (Ken mirror btw)
Props to sonix for playing well and staying humble. Also for shouting out his loved ones and his faith in god
Ay good shit boys keep up the good work
The Best MF fox in the world! lets go! Amazing episode my boys 🙏🏾💪🏾
Shout out to Sonix, his run into Smash's future is looking great
YOU KNOW THE VIBES
I totally understand why Light's upset about Marss, and I do think there's a little truth in Marss pseudo-retiring once it got harder. In Marss' defense though, I think he was trying to say Light ebbs and flows and was currently on a trough rather than a crest (sorry for the science jumpscare lol), not that he thinks Light is dropping off permanently or even in the long-term. Great vid so far though, love y'all!!
Marss always tries to pass his negativity off as jokes. It’s annoying. I had to quit hanging out with a few people like him growing up.
Light has said in the past that being talked down about pushes you to reach further. And hey… can you say it didn’t work!?
@@tomcampbell8934 I mean Light does the same shit constantly so he can't say anything.
New lights out? You know the vibes 🎉
The relationship between EEvisu and KEN is so funny! HAHAHAHAHA, the blue spinning jims! :D:D:D
I've always enjoyed Sonix' gameplay to the point where it I flat out don't understand people's complaints about him playing Sonic. When he camps, he does it to trigger a response from the opponent with the threat of the clock, but when he takes an opening, he pushes the advantage state to its fullest. Most importantly, he excels in edgeguarding, which is one of the key defining factors that make Smash Bros Smash Bros. You go out there and intercept! Go all in and make sure they don't come back home!
I admit to even picking up Fox to figure out why Light enjoys bullying people with Fox (especially at the ledge). Dozens upon dozens of SDs in failed edgeguards later (even as someone who typically SDs), I realize it's probably for the best to ledgetrap. To which I've come to appreciate as a defining characteristic that separates Ultimate from Melee in how where each title focuses on the strategy. Melee doesn't really have ledgetrapping due to planking thanks to the invincibility on grabbing and unlimited regrabs along with a dash out of ledge being invincible (also you can run through opponents unlike Ultimate!). For all the criticism blasted at Ultimate for buffed recoveries, getting off the ledge to center stage ain't easy.
The point Sonix made that Cosmos discussed; answering EE's question of where the meta is heading where the top characters need to have super strong advantage states and balanced neutral and recoveries is certainly interesting. It reminds me of Muteace's explosive finish on Spargo at Rewired.
I've rambled on enough. Good to hear Light is in great spirits from his losses (from the ranked #1 and #2 players of the season, no less), I will also say enjoyed the heck out of Cosmos' high octane match against Sparkle, a Hero player (trying not to say more so no stress!). Fantastic tourney; one for the ages and great episode overall.
Great episode. I'd like to see Sonix's tier list.
Happy to see Light beat the washed allegations and even more excited to get this early addition episode
Another great episode with another awesome guest. I'm excited to see where this podcast will be next year 👏
Cosmos didn’t explain what he was trying to say well because it came out as “you have to be good at everything” What is actually going on is how PEOPLE learn in general and how we can use that to predict a games lifespan.
1. At the beginning of the game, Mkleo dominated with a heavy advantage state leaning character IKE with ENOUGH neutral since he has a superior neutral as a player and was going to outplay people anyways. so now he could end then quickly.
2. Then mid game, everyone’s defense hasn’t caught up yet but their neutral had, so to protect his own he needed to up the neutral to stay ahead and solve it with a slippery neutral…in Joker.
3. Now everyone’s neutral, advantage and defense has caught up. Joker’s advantage and defense clearly takes the hit now. And He can’t advantage early enough with his slippery character to be consistent with the thing that’s kept him ahead this whole time: people’s defense being weak and imperfect neutral. And with HIS defense being weak, he’s more ever exposed.
So the question is, is smash’s oldest and most famous piece of wisdom true: Don’t get hit”? Is it now more important to have a neutral and defense rather then a broken advantage state? Time will tell. But while you are here, don’t worry about the kills, they will come to you due to the weakness Sonix is talking about. But make sure the character has the possibility to get them. Pressure, but don’t get hit.
(Also ZSS is a late meta character with all the right MU’s and going to make a major comeback, watch. Yoshi has enough of the right characteristics too. Get ready to see both characters 😉)
Haven't commented for a while but still watching. Stay cool lights out gang ❤
Appreciate you! :)
Up a stock⁉️ You know the vibes‼️ ⛺️🆙
I love Light lowkey a mentor to Sonix
Damn, Sonix is such a breath of fresh air for Smash rn. I wish him all the best and hope he continues to prove why he is amongst the best.
I am dead ass a huge sonix fan now
A Sonix episode? Let's go!
really good episode lmao. Too bad I cannot enter the tournament no more
Couldn't wait for this podcast since PP8
Great episode.
Light overreacted at what Marss said a little but that call-out was hilarious 😂honestly though, how is your friend just gonna predict your downfall like that? cray tbh
I think Acola was just having a bad weekend. Miya and Sonix outplayed him ofc, but he was having Procon issues starting from the Umeki set, and he also just seemed discouraged, i mean his in game tag was 'miserable'.
Hope things get better for him
I heard that was his tag cause his favorite band broke up 3 days before the tourney
Yeah, he had controller issues. Had to play the rest of the tournament with a controller he borrowed from someone else.
Great episode and guest. A little sad at the end when Carlos suggested that Aegis's recovery wasn't good enough to be meta-relevant, and Brian got in his head again about character choice. Sure, any tournament where Sparg0 and Shuton both do noticeably bad is going to take Aegis down a peg, but you gotta remember that Carlos is the same guy who lost a ten-game grand final to Sparg0's Aegis at LMMM just a few weeks ago. Yes Sonic can edgeguard Aegis, but Sparg0 (Edgar) was getting around that nicely in most cases, and also setting up great ledge traps to get kills pretty early as well. Overall, Aegis is good, and has only a few bad matchups like maybe Diddy and Min Min. Brian could consider a secondary like Pikachu or Joker for those matchups, but overall the main thing is to enjoy playing his main.
Hope Light managed to pull out the competitive spirit sleeping inside Marss
Sonic came right back!!
“I just started runnin” - sonix gump
the sonix pop off was great as well
I was rooting for Miya but Sonix played really well. Miya almost had it but Sonix clutched it out at the end. Great job to Sonix. But man, Miya not dropping a single game until Winner Finals is a big statement. Unfortunate Acola had controller issues and had to use someone else's controller. I wonder how different things would have played out.
1:05:47 the best of ee + is the 2k light out tournament na only
That what the fuck is a kilometer meme of Sonix is hilarious lmao
1:05:50 EE’s beef with the Spinning Blue Jims is too much 🤣🤣
Good episode 🙏
Light johning HARD 😂
