I dunno if anyone here pays attention to major tournaments but if nothing else you guys need to see this recent set from DPOTG 2018, it's insanely tense and hype af. Easily the best set of the tournament.

I still miss George Michael.

That song honestly gives me a little PTSD from all the Intense difficulty Bosh Rush runs I did back in Brawl where Meta Ridley was the most annoying with him literally throwing the stage around. 7/10

Man, so you know who's a lot of fun? Dark Samus. I dabbled in Samus in Smash 4, but all these new buffs (and she got a ton) make Dark Samus feel way better. Bombs exploding on contact is really nice for neutral and edgeguarding, and I especially love the shield pressure with her projectiles. Obviously a sufficiently big Charge Shot will do a lot, but even 3 missiles is enough to break a shield with 2 missiles making it dangerously close. I was honestly pretty hyped to see Dark Samus announced even if she is just an Echo.

EDIT: This song is in Ultimate from the Style Savvy series and I really need to get this. Hope it shows up in the shop soon, lol.

I love how when Pit gets star KOd he yells, "I never learned how to reeeeead!" like he did in Kid Icarus: Uprising.

WE NEVER SAW IT COOOMIIIIIIIIING

So what character(s) is everyone looking forward to playing the most? For me it's definitely Isabelle.

I dabbled with Villager in Smash 4 and had lots of fun, but Isabelle is adorable and my favorite AC character and she's looking to be even better than Villager. She still has the slingshot and turnips which are great moves, and I appreciate the consistency of her always has 2 turnips instead of Villager's 1-3. She lacks the recovery mix-ups of lloid rocket but the fishing rod is a great edge guarding tool since it has hitboxes both ways. And her lloid mine is a fantastic tool in the neutral, combined with the fishing rod and slingshot it'll be difficult for characters to approach her. The rest of the differences are less subtle and mixed, like her fsmash having more forward range but less utility than Villager's bowling ball, or her utilt having more range but less of a lingering hitbox.

That's a really cool song, I love the sound of throat singing. 8/10

Oh yeah, I'm the same way about that sort of thing. It's not even Thanksgiving yet.

My grandpa also played trumpet for Frank Sinatra.

The Final Countdown is a classic, 9/10.

Wow, I'm honestly shocked you don't know about The Twist. I get that it's from the 50/60s, but still, wow. I take it you're not familiar with the dance, either?

So there was this event in Spain that had a full roster demo of the game, and we've got some more balance info: https://www.reddit.c...info_coming_in/

Also, the Owain Spirit turning Chrom's outfit yellow and making him taunt endlessly was fucking funny.
