    Port Priority 8 was a P-tier tournament held in Seattle, USA and has been regarded as one of the hardest Smash Ultimate tournaments in history. It was a statement event from the Japanese scene as the top 8 featured 5 Japanese players. Can North America keep up with Japan in Smash Ultimate?

    Congrats for the winning Sonix. Some people always complain about some characters "down the hype". But Sonix vs Acola and the Paisy and Fox Dittos were legendary matches. Sonix vs Miya was a patience battle, some people love it, other ones found it "meh".

      Sonix needs to surpass Sparg0 before getting to Miya. Miya has solidified his dominance throughout the year and can (kinda) be argued for #1. Whereas Sonix has more dips scattered through his year. If Sparg0, Acola, and Miya do poorly he may get third.

      @@LashawnWattenSparg0 has way more dips than Sonix wym lmao
      The only reason Sonix isn’t Top 3 is because Sparg0 still has 2 premier wins and has a great set record against the Top 5
      If Sonix manages to even his set count vs Sparg0 and maybe win watch the throne, he can argue for Top 3. But Miya and Acola are just undisputed Top 2 and it’s not close lmao

      @@haydenbennett3547 that can be said for everyone’s bracket demon though. You can always say to every winner “oh, well if he faced so and so, he wouldn’t have won the tourney”, it just really comes down to 10% luck and 90% skill. Take gackt for example, he lost a set and then faced MiYa after. If you don’t know, Ness’s worst matchup of all time is G&W, so gackt could’ve made it farther but it’s just small things like that can eliminate anyone.

    A: by only engaging with borderline if not outright unreactable burst options aimed at the opponents bubble, to play the odds, in-between mashing in the corner, until the opponent was sufficiently tired of guessing which guessing game is coming up.

    Look, it’s been said before, but it bears repeating.
    The characters with the strongest defensive options, like Sonic, GnW, or Steve, are good for tournament, bad for viewership.
    I understand the point of a tournament is to win, but me personally, and many of the people I know, aren’t gonna watch a game with these characters.
    Not because these characters can’t be cool, but because the best way to play is non-committal. Which I’m sorry, but that’s just boring. I’m glad Sonix is doing well, but some of these wins are at the cost of the scene as a whole.
    Which isn’t his fault, but people should be aware of the consequences of their actions regardless.

    • @sroth2021
      @sroth2021 Рік тому +1

      Welcome to the world of sport. If you ever watch football (soccer) you'll know that many games between the best teams can be cagey and defensive. Both teams unwilling to over commit.
      Sometimes a team can rely on 'broken' players to bail them out on the counterattack while their team sits deep and hold a low defensive line.
      As a fan sometimes it is infuriatingly boring to watch your team not try to play with freedom and courage to go forward even if you're grinding out results.
      Not trying to overly downplay your complaints but it's worth looking at this within the context of sports entertainment in general.

      @@sroth2021
      You make a valid point, and I do love soccer. I think my only caveats to that is that 1, I think soccer is designed by nature to be more defensive.
      2, being a team sport helps to reduce one side from always having control.
      Also important to point out, in sports you have “rules”, what you’re not supposed to do. In games you have “laws”. You can’t do anything outside what the game allows you.
      So in a sport, if things get too bad you can change the rules to feel more balanced. In a game, if something isn’t balanced and the devs are done updating then it is what it is.

    • @thecapitalisticdictator2256

      I will say I still can enjoy Sonic & G&W since those characters still play the same game, and the top ones are playing super optimal to their characters. Steve's best representative still isn't playing him even close to optimally, and I mean ledge stalling with block & mining, continually camping with walls and moving from one side of the stage to the other with minecart over & over again, things that aren't technically challenging. The tech they could do like NILs and PMLG, they don't even bother to learn. So for the most part even when players get Acola to a game 5, he can just choose to play more degenerate, & therefore optimal, and all odds completely skew in his favor save a few characters who have the tools to deal with that situation.
