This is legitimately one of the best videos of this genre thats ever showed up on my feed. Huge kudos, I also remember staying up for the umebara set and feeling the dread sink in lol. Good to know I wasn't alone!
@@BamSnoozled :D tysmmm love to see videos talking about set histories that can be lost to time. actually talked about this exact kind of video while streaming today. keep it up!! the scene is way too recently biased to forget the gems that this scene has
I think starting with byleth was a good choice, but after game 4 it was clear that Acola had figured something out. It might've ended with the same result, but Leo has successfully averted getting reverse 3-0d by swapping characters game 5 before (Leo vs Tarik at UFA 2023, Leo went up 2-0 with joker but Tarik figured something out and brought it to game 5, Leo then swapped to byleth and won)
So I’m pretty sure the reason Leo isn’t the goat is because 1… skill wise… everyone kind of finally caught up… and 2… he was the goat for 5 years straight… that’s 5 years of people studying him and figuring out his habits and honestly Leo is by far the most watched player in smash… we all literally clicked on this video to watch him… look at acola… he’s good and no hate to him but now that the surprise factor is gone… and people are learning the Steve match up… realistically Miya should have been ranked 1st for last season.. but this time I doubt he will stay 1st again… and it’s because he’s the current player people were trying to beat so obviously they looked for cracks in the armor
I honestly think it’s because this game is bad. Light himself is a player that should be getting glazed but isn’t because of jank killing him with zero-to-death combos.
goat stands for greatest of all time, not greatest now. Mkleo is the goat, no one has been as dominant as him. Maybe acola will, but with how he's been looking recently, I not sure.
and the only steve player hes down in set count is acola, hes up on onin, soar, ddee, big chungus, djdon, yonni, and alot more theres syrups steve, but even then he won their last encounter you’re complaining over nothing?
i think we all aged out of our youthful optimism and happiness as leo’s #1 status slowly faded. it’s a sinking and heartbreaking feeling, and i think we’d all feel like life was better again if leo was dominant again
Must be EXACTLY how mfs felt watching ZeRo lose to Bayonetta
That was tuff and he retired right after, but we should be thanking ZeRo cus so many Bayos would’ve won way more tournaments
Now THIS is how you do a Smash storyline justice... great work as always Bam
Thanks GOAT, made my day with this one
I’ve found him in the wild
amazingly produced video, 10/10 you did a great job making this

Thank you for the kind words :3, glad I was able to recapture those emotions
2:15 That was not Miya in the picture. That's Kaninanbe

Well edited, well written. Good work!
Thank you
Absolute gem, thank you yt recommendations!
Thank you :3
Hey
At 2:15, I couldn't read the text because I'm on my phone
If there's a next time, can you put the text further up the screen??
The ending was so true...also KOLA LFG!!!
Maybe some of the writing I'm most proud of. (Also kola dub woohoo)
Man... I didn't know he lost 😢
0:30 Don't want to be the "erhm, ahcktually" guy, but Kurama did take a game from Leo and was the only person to do so at Ludwig's
Being a further erm actually guy, leo only lost a game to kurama after Leo 3-0 acola for the first time. So my continuity still stands
4:00 loser actually got 5th
If only Leo swapped to joker 😢
Honestly yeah lol, but the GOAT lives and dies by his questionable character choices
I think starting with byleth was a good choice, but after game 4 it was clear that Acola had figured something out. It might've ended with the same result, but Leo has successfully averted getting reverse 3-0d by swapping characters game 5 before (Leo vs Tarik at UFA 2023, Leo went up 2-0 with joker but Tarik figured something out and brought it to game 5, Leo then swapped to byleth and won)
i cant wait... nhhghhh
Onin didn't rob Leo he 3:0'd him dominated
Maybe both can be true :3
@@BamSnoozled lame downplaying their achievements
bruh i miss mkleo byleth
It cooked
yeah but lately he plays joker more sadly
Here from the fox discord, amazing video
Glad to see you enjoyed

@@justice8718 what? lights constantly being praised for his amazing gameplay
and the only steve player hes down in set count is acola, hes up on onin, soar, ddee, big chungus, djdon, yonni, and alot more
theres syrups steve, but even then he won their last encounter
