First T gets himself into the Top 96, then the Top 32, then the Top 8, and now he's made it into the Top 3! Using none other than the Legendary hero of Hyrule, Link!! T is an absolute beast!!!
Well as a Link main you should know that "For glory link" stands for those guys that only spam projectiles, roll from one corner of the stage to the other, and are most likely to have a laggy connection. Just because you play for glory doesn't make you a typical for glory Link. Unless you fit the description above, in which case... fuck you to hell ;P
so many from japan with this characters nobody expected to make it that far (shulk, expand dong,link,and even esam with samus and fatality making it this far) and im sitting here waiting for some misterious roy player that shakes a tournament or at least makes it to winners cuarters
A lot of people initially complained that only ONE person from the Top 10 made it to Top 8, but honestly the way this turned out was even better! Not only do we get to see top players compete in crews, but we also get to see lesser known players fight on the big stage...I mean a freaking captain falcon and a Link?! That's just Insane! :O ...Hopefully since Zero won Civil War Crew Battles, that might make up for his terrible "upset"! ;) EDIT: THE SECOND PARAGRAPH IS A JOKE! (at least until crew battles finishes...)
OMG guys...I didn't spoil crap! It was a joke... Everyone has been saying Team Zero is probably going to win, As I write this comment THE CREW BATTLE IS STILL GOING ON!!!! Sorry for the confusion...noone has won yet!
I was so torn watching this set. I'm a Link main and a hugr fan of T, but I also really like Fatality and he was doing so well this tournement. Both are such under rated players, it was really great to see them shine.
Can somebody tell me how T tether grabs the ledge while still holding on to the bomb? I've never really dug deep into advance Link techniques for this game.
Tachyon Lion Link IS good lol, in fact, all the MUs T had to face in top 32 weren't bad. Rosa is 50:50, Dabuz is just godlike and played the Link MU perfectly. T would not have done as well if he had to fight Void/Mr. R since Sheik is by far Link's worst MU (though he still was able to beat K9).
I've never seen Fatality so flustered. The first 30 seconds of game one he was playing like his usual self, but everything afterwards was like watching a different Falcon.
ALright, sorry for my lack of knowledge (I just discover this amazing SSMB pro scene) ANd I have a really hard time understanding the tournaments. Wth is losers finals and winner finals and grand finals? Which one is better? How do you get either side? Wth are pools? Please!
Let's start with what winners and losers finals and grand finals are. Everyone starts on the winners side of a bracket. If you win a match in winners side, you continue through winners side. If you lose in winners side, if the tournament is double elimination, you're sent to losers bracket. If you lose in losers bracket, you're out of the tournament. Now, when the last two players left in the winners bracket meet, that's called the winners final. The loser of that match is sent to the losers final automatically, in the losers bracket. When there are only two players left in the losers bracket, that's the losers final. The winner of losers finals plays against the player in winners finals, and that's Grand Finals, the final match of the tournament. The player in losers side has to take 2 sets in a row off of the player in winners finals to win the tournament, while the player in winners side only has to win one set. Bracket pools are used for larger tournaments. They are essentially mini brackets, except without a grand finals. Depending on the tournament, a specific number of players make it out of pools. For example, if 3 players are allowed to make it out, then generally the winner of winners finals makes it out, the loser of winners finals makes it out, and the winner of losers finals makes it out. It can get kind of confusing. Then the player on the winners side is placed in winners side of either another pool, or winners side of the main tournament (Like top 96) and the other two players are placed in the losers bracket of either pools or the main tournament. Hope this helps! :D
Yes!! Thank you so much! It was really confusing to watch players that lost in winners finals go all the way to grand finals in some tournaments. I thought that it rewarded the loser more but I see that it really doesn't. Damn, that's a really cool and interesting format. It can make some tournaments really exciting with comebacks from great players and tough matches if there are upsets and whatnot
*sigh* Sad I missed this whole tournament and have already read the results before watching the VODS. Still, it's cool seeing all these lesser known players getting to shine in the spot light. This one in particular was amazing.
I used to play on For Glory but not anymore. I tend to find better opponents by going to various twitch streams and playing either them or other viewers. I also have been in a few tournaments and me and my friends often play at each others houses to get better...
As a Link player, T is the epitome of everything I *try* to do. Heck, he even uses the same skin as me. Watching him play has really gotten me motivated and inspired :) I got myself a new favourite player to watch now I gotta say tho, some of those combos only worked due to unfamiliarity, and it showed. But it's something people don't ever pick up on no matter how many times you beat them, so I guess it's fine..?
+Jian Ling Lim It's fine for low level opponents, but if you want to do well in tournaments, its all about the mix ups. High level players wont keep falling for it if its the only thing you do, so you have to trick them into thinking you'll do the combo again, and then hit them with a punish. Once they expect the punish, they wont try to dodge the original combo so you can hit it again. Smash 4 is a lot of mind games, and mix ups help catch people unprepared. So don't forget to learn those mix ups!
Jian Ling Lim SAME I've been a Link since day 1 but I'm still mediocre compared to top level players hopefully we can be as good as T someday that man is the very definition of what a Link Main should aim to do while also learning new tricks
true falcons is worse, the up b has more mobility and is faster though, he also has a better double jump and a wall jump and a side b that he can use to recover. neither have great recoveries
Mad respect for T for making it so far with Link. What a god.
mad respect for fatality as well. So many amazing wins this tournament
Yeah, Link is very difficult to use, but he is very good.
The Legend of T: Breath of the War
LOL
t with that amazing tech and the end
I'm watching this in 2019 after getting used to Ultimate. This game seems so SLOW, but this set is still so HYPE!!
First T gets himself into the Top 96, then the Top 32, then the Top 8, and now he's made it into the Top 3! Using none other than the Legendary hero of Hyrule, Link!! T is an absolute beast!!!
T makes link look so damn strong.
Astira because he is that strong obviously lol
Astira Link IS strong, T just makes good use of it
Smash 4's knockback looks really weird now lol
This is smash!!
T?!? Where have you been?!?! Get ready for a ton of For Glory Links
For Glory Links don't watch tournaments. They just play For Glory xD
Well you should have seen for glory after Frostbite :(
and still
ZyneXx Link main here that watches tournaments and plays FG. You stand corrected.
Well as a Link main you should know that "For glory link" stands for those guys that only spam projectiles, roll from one corner of the stage to the other, and are most likely to have a laggy connection. Just because you play for glory doesn't make you a typical for glory Link. Unless you fit the description above, in which case... fuck you to hell ;P
Coach to T: "Don't worry, Falcon doesn't have the tools to win a major lol you'll be fine"
PoundCake Smash ''insert hax$ joke''
PoundCake Smash lol and link more
REPORT
favorite set of the tournament
so many from japan with this characters nobody expected to make it that far (shulk, expand dong,link,and even esam with samus and fatality making it this far) and im sitting here waiting for some misterious roy player that shakes a tournament or at least makes it to winners cuarters
emixuzumaki You should keep an eye out for Hyperkirby.
Forget basket ball. THIS is March Madness!
T the overlord. Fatality the god.

EDIT: THE SECOND PARAGRAPH IS A JOKE! (at least until crew battles finishes...)
Alienrun Not everyone was able to watch the stream during the crew battle. Thanks, you little shit.
OMG guys...I didn't spoil crap! It was a joke...
Everyone has been saying Team Zero is probably going to win, As I write this comment THE CREW BATTLE IS STILL GOING ON!!!!
Sorry for the confusion...noone has won yet!
zero won
+Mike! You idiot!!!! Did you not read the thread? Now everyone will be pissed at you! :O
Alienrun That was a trash joke and you should feel bad.
11:05-11:27 that was the greatest spacing I've ever seen in smash 4
Still one of the most hype sets to this day shit was crazy
T was the MVP of this event
11:54 teeth game 2 strong
I was so torn watching this set. I'm a Link main and a hugr fan of T, but I also really like Fatality and he was doing so well this tournement. Both are such under rated players, it was really great to see them shine.
3:18 This commentator was years into the future
T got that tri-force grills on
LOL is this a yellow teeth joke? I noticed that too
Jesus, that bomb clutch had me on edge.
This was like Isai vs Superboomfan at Apex!
Can somebody tell me how T tether grabs the ledge while still holding on to the bomb? I've never really dug deep into advance Link techniques for this game.
soulassassin226 You have to air dodge and then immediately tether to the ledge
T the Legend.
11:22 That was the most terrifying pressure scenario I have ever seen in Sm4sh history... I would be horrified to go against T!!!
Me too.
very nice set. does fatality roll from ledge that often usually though? it really cost him.
wtf this crowd is dead. this was one of the hypest matches ever in ssb4 history.
部洲居 you werent there in person youre just assuming because stream audio was quiet. we're buying a crowd mic for the future
Link has all the tools to be good, he's just slow, and his projectiles aren't good enough to make up for it (minus bombs).
Tachyon Lion Link IS good lol, in fact, all the MUs T had to face in top 32 weren't bad. Rosa is 50:50, Dabuz is just godlike and played the Link MU perfectly. T would not have done as well if he had to fight Void/Mr. R since Sheik is by far Link's worst MU (though he still was able to beat K9).
DarkDeity15 because T is just a much better player than K9 lol
DarkDeity15 that's so ironic that Sheik is Links worst match-up lol
Are you sure Link v. Rosa is 50/50?
DarkDeity15 50|50? You're crazy. Link has a better match up with shiek than Rosa.
seeing T so happy after win this match, i dont want to see the next game whe he messed up :(
I've never seen Fatality so flustered. The first 30 seconds of game one he was playing like his usual self, but everything afterwards was like watching a different Falcon.
ALright, sorry for my lack of knowledge (I just discover this amazing SSMB pro scene) ANd I have a really hard time understanding the tournaments. Wth is losers finals and winner finals and grand finals? Which one is better? How do you get either side? Wth are pools? Please!

fun fact: Link has the 3rd fastest fast fall in the game (190% of his max fall speed).
link for the win
where can i get those smash jackets that T is wearing
How do you grab the edge with a zair with a bomb?
I am here to study to and make arrangements to my Link play. My goal is to be the best Link worldwide and best T and Zero.
JoRd The Link main good luck facing me then because I've been a Link main since smash64, and I will be the worlds best Link. There can only be one!
You are right! Only one I will watch for you in tournament
JoRd The Link main Like wise!
*sigh* Sad I missed this whole tournament and have already read the results before watching the VODS. Still, it's cool seeing all these lesser known players getting to shine in the spot light. This one in particular was amazing.
What the hell happened at 1:00? Did he cancel spin attack or something?
ezzerby The Spin Attack wasn’t cancelled at all. It just trade with Captain Falcons Jab
Ah of course, thanks very much!
Does anyone know if T's sweatshirt is custom or can it be bought from somewhere? It's sweet
The Batter google spifspace they make custom hoodies/tshirts and were the ones who sold the all the apparel at this event
The ending was dramatic and epic at the same time!
What the wonderful Link! I regret that I didn't know T
10:16 had me dead. "Wait, is Link.... OHHH! WHAT A RECOVERY!"
Mr recovering Link, awesome!!!
where can u get the hoodie that T has??
+Nerthus - Gaming Channel Spifspace.com
Use promo code 2GG10
Thanks :)
10:12 Me: HE'S NOT DONE YET!!!!!!!!!
11:38 Me: HE'S NOT FUCKING DONE YET!!!!!!!!
Mr T
Finally my old main getting some results!
Rewatching in 2020, high-level Link play PogChamp
what's more fun to watch than captain falcon play? captain falcon plays against perfect link in tight match
tmcrz IS CAPTAIN FALCOOOOOOOON plays the more fun too see
man he needs to brush his teeth
This set was melee level hype!
the legend of T
Tiers of the wild
That recovery tho
Link's Tilts and pivot grabs work well against Falcon and Marth. Hope this helped if anyone reads this. Lol
My two mains right here.
I don't play on For Glory
Said every for glory player.
I used to play on For Glory but not anymore. I tend to find better opponents by going to various twitch streams and playing either them or other viewers. I also have been in a few tournaments and me and my friends often play at each others houses to get better...
I also won a tournament one of my friends put together. And there were people from all over the state that entered
Same here, but like, my response was too good to pass up. LOL Don't take it seriously bro.
When the For Glory Links learn to play. Say your prayers lol
so link doesn´t have potential no?.... so link is only low-mid tier no?....
i don´t think so!
Why is T the love of my life
the for glory classic matchup
11:54 Look at that gold teeth...
I would have loved for T to win it all... Damm
Tailong same, and next time hopefully
You can tell people some trash in smash when they say link a bad character.lol. link is one of the most Op player in the game
If only T's teeth were as clean as his gameplay.
I think T is using bidou because his perfect pivots are insane
Nah he doesn't use bidou. Link needs a-stick to do all of his tech. Bidou uses b-stick
この時のTさんふっくらしてるね。
T for teeth?
T’s link is so fun to watch.
As a Link player, T is the epitome of everything I *try* to do. Heck, he even uses the same skin as me. Watching him play has really gotten me motivated and inspired :) I got myself a new favourite player to watch now
I gotta say tho, some of those combos only worked due to unfamiliarity, and it showed. But it's something people don't ever pick up on no matter how many times you beat them, so I guess it's fine..?

久しぶりに見に来た
Jesus christ his teeth
fuck up. gay ass jerry picture bitch
Just starting ;D
this why the teir is stupid
T is a God with this link
フェイタリティ…萎えてる？
Grrrr Pillo pillo pillo Ham PILLO!
Just go off stage, T. Falcon is very easy to edgeguard with Link!
This is what real talent looks like, not like only using the best characters in the game because you suck at it
FUCK DUDE!!! i really wanted for fatality to win
What a legend
Fataly-T..........No ?
I'll see myself out.
7:25 Balloon sabotage
Nairo should've gone Bowser against Fatality.
Considering that Lord Mix lives in GA, that would've been a bad idea.
Like if you knew about T way before this tournament
T is Amazing, my favorite Player Smash 4.
Good job T.
And here, I thought Link was one fo the low (maybe mid) tier. And then I see this crap. Sheesh.
best lonk of pennsylvania plss
fatality won! wait?
りんくTUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
"Link's recovery is ass"
DJ L00dBoi lol what idiot said that? Everyone that knows anything about the game knows Link's recovery is pretty good.
its very exploitable
Owen better than falcon's
Not as exploitable as Falcon's, which doesn't have a hitbox to protect him from getting punished unlike Link's.
true falcons is worse, the up b has more mobility and is faster though, he also has a better double jump and a wall jump and a side b that he can use to recover. neither have great recoveries
As a Link main, one of my favorite matchups is against Falcon
つーさんおるやん
Colgate should sponsor t
Tさん半端ね笑
#30
FataliT
T is aight but he stole my links color time to die T...
fatality got pissed
Orgasmic win
