That comeback in game 4 was crazy. What the other comments said about ChunkyKong getting punished going for unnecessary parries is true and you can see Red Oolong took advantage of it, but there were also real moments where ChunkyKong just got outplayed and by game 5 Oolong had completely adapted and began dominating. He definitely earned the W and I think this was a great set.
This is an amazing matchup that I'm hype to see. Two fantastic players meeting early on, I love to watch both of these guys play and got genuinely excited when I saw them against eachother in the thumbnail. Shame that neither made it to top 48, cuz I absolutely think they have what it takes. These two and Suarez were my favorites to watch this tourney for certain. Yoda Cage v Bassmage was a wild match too. Smash 2023 is off to an amazing start!!
Disappointing set. ChunkyKong is clearly a super talented player, but he really handicaps himself by ALWAYS going for parries. Oolong was using side-B before grabbing the ledge almost every time, and instead of just shielding the soccer ball and playing for the ledge trap ChunkyKong was going for random parries, missing the timing and getting hit, then just letting Oolong reset into neutral for free. On top of that CK falls into a lot of the same panic options at high percent - always going for jump after ledge grab, air dodging at the exact same time before landing on platform. Really feels like style over substance killed a set that should’ve been much easier for CK.
I agree with you here. As a long time ck fan it makes me proud to see what he’s capable of in certain matchups, but when the deep breathing hits, it’s mentally debilitating. Hope to see more from him tho he’s goated
No the motherfucking mad lad WAVE BOUNCED the giant punch which is like 5 times harder than a b reverse, WHO WAVE BOUNCES GIANT PUNCH? That play was actually insane.
