@9:50 Wizzy Malfunction after clutch round

[@theunfunnylums]

Amazing reverse mains set

[@mandalorianhunter1]

Yeah Wizz has been a bracket demon for Amsa for so long, not only does Wizzy play one of Yoshi's harder MUs but he plays the character in 64 so he fundamentally knows the character.
AmSa could have taken this set a few times but it was a great set nonetheless

[@LoopZoopler]

Huh?

[@thecongadrums]

“big hands wizy” is funny on a primordial level

[@sparkfx5874]

Wonder why aMSa doesn't use short hop dair more with Yoshi. The move is just so good in general, but the amount of times he was able to pile up shield pressure and reduce wizzy's shield to a mini skittle was insane and if he had followed any of those interactions up with a short hop dair instead of short hop / double jump cancel nair or up air he would've gotten lots more damage if not a shield break. Then again, I'm not the #1 ranked Yoshi player and I'm sure he has his reasons, just seems like it would be a good option after he's applied a bit of his signature lightning fast shield pressure. I'd love to see him do his usual oppressive double jump cancelled zig-zag aerials then follow up with a down air to shield break or just get that juicy ~30%

[@sampletext7925]

The startup on d-air makes it pretty risky to use against falcons like wizzy, and amsa's the type to stick to his flowchart movement more often than not.
I would like to see someone try this against wizzy though, he shields so much more in this matchup than I'm used to. I think amsa's just consistent enough to make djc n-airs just as (if not more) advantageous on shield. Forcing a roll while being active as soon as n-air lets you seems like it could lead to a better opening than a shield poke d-air in a lot of situations.

Let’s go wizzy!

[@MrJholshouser41]

They've been fucking up the thumbnails a lot lately

[@ste_e_p]

Maybe because they went bankrupt?

[@alexross26]

why is it ok for puff to rest but not falcon to punch? I never see people punch when it would be worth the risk since its high knockback and has less of a punish than rest

[@davecatss6652]

yoo thumpnail says wizzy played yoshi and amsa played falvon LULW

[@SurrealSurreal]

Reverse mains?

[@yayakame]

good commentary :)

[@uncutstrawberryjams]

Who were the commentators, I didn’t recognise either of them?

[@PreacherJenkins]

First you get aMSa and n0ne mixed up and now again? How do you guys keep screwing up the thumbnails and titles lol

[@TylerClibbon]

spinda commentary gang

[@TimmyT1234]

I'm still mad wizzy was left off the 2023 summer rankings; we all know this man easily sits in the top 20, probably even the top 10

[@firstlast-wg2on]

I mean, I agree he’s amazing, he’s my favourite player too, but should players who basically never compete be put on the rankings..? That’s like saying a retired player who plays a few times a year for fun should be ranked just because they’re good, you know?
Hopefully he plays more often

[@fhuckgoogle4171]

wizzy the undertaker

[@hidood5th]

huh

[@symphoniez]

2nd

[@devon_lol]

whats with the masks?

[@SuP3rSh3eP]

COVID is going around. Helps if you don't want to be sick for an upcoming event or just don't want to get sick?

[@SaxophoneMiner]

why do you care

[@nuave]

@@SuP3rSh3eP Cloth masks don't stop viruses, viruses are too small for cloth masks to provide any protection. It's entirely security theater.

[@hugoclarke3284]

Viruses are transmitted between humans in respiratory droplets large enough to be blocked. It's not guaranteed protection, but nor is it "security theater".

[@Massamom]

@@nuave Covid, like the Flu is a respiratory virus and is spread via aerosols (essentially tiny water droplets) which if you are infected contain the virus. It's these particles that are caught by the face mask. The effectiveness depends on the material and if they are single or double layered but even a cloth mask will help. Wizzy seems to be wearing one of the higher standard ones but even Amsa seems to be wearing a surgical mask; both reduce your chance of catching an infection.
No, they are not just "security theater".
