That was such a close set, both had some great plays. Didn't even realize game 2 was about to go to time till I looked at the clock and saw 20 seconds left. Tea's throw into the still active bell to up-smash was crazy. Maybe that's a set up, but I'd never seen it land like that before
@@StealthKey not many people are used to invitationals and don’t know how that format works. EVEN so these two have both WON majors so this being a pools match is still insane even if it’s an invitational
As a pacman main TEA is just one of the less pacman mains understanding how to trick the hell out of it. For me he is #1 and Sinji #2. Also big brain move on 26:04, he shows the Gala but secretly loops into the bell. Just watch carefully you will see it :) FYI: Tea defeated marss at Grand Finals couple years ago. Both are Elite players.
That was such a sick catch. I kept watching that interaction to see why Mars got hit. He had played so skillfully around Bell. I didn't want to just assume that he got worn down. The way that he was using back air seemed intentional. Now it makes sense. If he was expecting Gal, he would have caught it with the bair, or at least not died.
there are many great pac mains I think they just don't travel much. sinji is good but he plays pac so campy. my fav (besides tea) was middy from WA but they haven't competed in a long time
BRO I WAS LITERALY SHRIEKING AT 12:55, MY MAN'S TEA GOING CRAZY WITH THAT BELL This seriously has to be one of the most entertaining matches I've ever seen, even after watching Tea play so many times he still blows my mind with Pac-Man every time. And credit to Marss for putting up an incredibly close fight
fr. its likely an aggressive shift in the meta, like how often Tea literally aggressed out of every string Marss got in him, nair/dair/fair where in the past BIG MONEY Marss would read those and kill him at fujckin 35 every day of the week.
The nerfs made ZSS so much less interesting to watch and play. Don’t know why they were needed. Wasn’t exactly a character you saw much in the meta. Now even Marss only uses her on a matchup basis. He was so entertaining to watch with her before the nerfs.
Tea stomps on all NA and European players. only player on earth with winning record and no losses against Tea is MKLeo. Tea and Acola need to collaborate
Damn Tea just forces you to play so passive and non-interactive. Marss is one of the most "in your face" type players I know. His tempo and forcing his opponent into certain positions just makes him great to watch...usually. The intimidation Tea has with PAC-man is unmatched, everyone knows that one slip-up means you get combo'd into oblivion and Marss certainly was not as explosive as he normally is. Maybe it really is time to say goodbye to solo ZSS and grind another character for these kinds of MU's, I know he's practising Joker, but it just seems like a weak excuse next to his ZSS.
Yeah Marss was very scared in all the matches. He almost never landed combos, it was always little hits here and there followed by an immediate retreat, which just seems very mentally exhausting to me.
@@legrandliseurtri7495 this is how the zss Pac-Man mu is. Zss makes disadvantage tough for Pac-Man or Pac-Man can get nasty Galaga combos on ZSS. It’s pretty much lead-based

17:37 was a crazy key snipe like wow lol
I can't believe this is a pools match this tournament was hella stacked.
what do you expect its an INVITATIONAL

@@jamesgreenwood1703 its not that insane by how small and top level invitationals like these are
@@StealthKey ok
6:18 Marss with the fakeout music counterpick lol.

24:15
前投げがコンボない割にやたら動作短いのは、このためだったのか
24:15 was so sick. I love watching tea pac man!
Game 2 almost went to time, but both players played aggressively the whole time. Also what a whacky way to end a game
Tea and marss were both camping plus tea slowed the pace down a lot
Yeah keep-away camp versus set-up camp.

tea taking that second stock in game 4 by throwing marss into the bell surprised the hell outta me
i miss when marss was top 10, he plays the game like no one else. ZSS nerfs were all undeserved fr.

Tea vs marss sets are always like this
I agree she is missing something.
てぃーぱくがベル持った時の圧力がやばい
I forgot this matchup even existed ☠️
I said WOW so many times watching this
That was a good play rip for samus on that last blow but pac man recovered and reversed it👏🏽

Don’t mind me. Just jamming out to Marss song choice

19:11 is just so sad. Marss going insane off stage just to get reversal’d like that.
This particular matchup is still very interesting to this day
Marrs got hit with bell more then he needed to
I forgot marss was in this tourney.
pac god
F-SMAC-Man
Poooooor Marssss lol
Tea must’ve been a Boy Scout. Because he camps. A lot.
Not like this
