yeah when he hit the three taunt, im guessing it prolkylk was to throw m2k's focus off. He can straight face it all he wants, it definetly left an impression on his gameplay later on.
I don't think the taunts phased m2k at all but maybe the early gimp did. Regardless ESAM was just outplaying him. M2ks mentality didnt seem like a factor at all he just kinda got got
1:14 How's that "useful" Climhazzard punish coming along, ESAM? You know, the one you came up with. lol tbh Cloud's recovery is not as bad as people make it seem considering his air speed and the incredible disjoint on his attacks, not to mention his ability to recover for free from anywhere if he has limit.
Both players were on point this set (Well, no surprise from M2K, he is a very strong player always) and cograts to Esam being able to recover from game one's 2 stock defeat.
ESAM acted like a complete asshole this match. Taunting even when his opponent isn't, and after he killed M2K in the second game he taunted thrice in a row. I can understand a taunt after the final kill, but with all that, it isn't cool, it is just hatred-inducing.
I don't get how M2K couldn't read those constant Thunders from ESAM. He could've easily airdodged and drifted away from them midair. But whatever. M2K wasn't playing up to par, so ESAM deserved it.
+Prolific Pops Dude it's guaranteed no argument there. The distance traveled is all weight dependant and esam was messing that up. He said it himself in his return from shine video.
ESAM's up-throw thunders were SOOO on point this match.
#bidou
Yeah ;)
Looks like he's reading a great book from very far away. Wow that could not have been more spot on
Battle of the Baldos
Hahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahha
"come back when you are a grass type" killed me lmaoo
ESAM!! YES!!!
Good games to M2K he played amazing too!
I love these commentators. Professional and funny at the same time.
That last game read by Esam was amazing.
Hell yeah ESAM, that bidou tech paying off in spades. Respect for M2K too, both great players.
I got a Mr. Clean ad
Same
i don't normally cheer for esam, but my god it was satisfying seeing him beat m2k's cloud
Don't get mad when ESAM Taunts. It is a mindgame
Right! This is bidou Esam. He played dope this tournament, glad to see my boy taking names!
pikachu's whiffed dash grab animation is so cute
I love how everyone says pika is mediocre and isnt that good when esam proves again pika is atleast top ten
pikachu is top 5
Jon Kotowich Pika is top 15
man esam played this Mu right both in game and in real life, I think his taunts threw mew2king off so his mentality was bad.

Using those taunts was extremely contemptible. What a juvenile tactic, I thought better of esam :(
I don't think the taunts phased m2k at all but maybe the early gimp did. Regardless ESAM was just outplaying him. M2ks mentality didnt seem like a factor at all he just kinda got got
+VoxelFusion you thought better of Esam? Dude it's Esam that's what he does.
JayStaice I could see in his play his mentality got to him all right.
Yoooooooooooooo that last thunder was actually gdlk the conditioning was awesome this set from both players!
"Every leaf was just like: bruh... not today" hahaha
I love seeing ESAM playing at the top of his game again!

ESAM you da MAN!!! XD
Those matches were fucking tense!

Great matchup between these two
ESAM did great
Maybe Pika does beat Cloud
Maybe but not really
+PK Lucas It could just be even but ESAM seems to be showing a favor in the MU
***** Yeah I'll bet he'll lose next match because he's going to taunt and somebody's going to body him
It seems pretty even honestly, Pikachu might have a slight advantage due to the off stage strengths.
PK Lucas Well he got 2nd which is great.
The taunting is really there to just get his composure back if he feels on tilt.
man as a Pika main I love this Mu :3
2:04 lol true. I vote these are the best announcers for smash 4
This was so hype!
Such a good match!
We need a name for the 2nd hit of Pikachu's down-B. How about Pika Thunder 2?
I really want both of this players to win.
"Like his foot hurt but he still trying to get to the bottom of this chapter" HAHAHAHA
I'm pretty sure it's the power of Orange Glo
fucker
Man that was CLEAN by ESAM.
Glad ESAM finally did well :)
Does he still use biodu?
Is ESAM using bidou here?
yo...
has esam been hitting the gym? He looks more buff.
lol m2k losing to another random
lol
Nice bait lmao
Esam a random?
+Jonas Mückler you took the bait
so hype~~
Let's go Esam
Esam's pikachu doesn't know quick attack... It knows finesse attack
7:27 9:34 10:33 Hello! Goodbye!
ESAM could have survived that first spike, I would have died, but ESAM usually nails that angle
I felt so bad for m2k...
love both players...I find Esam to be cute...just sayin
nice work esam
those taunts tho
I think smash 4 makes it too easy to return to neutral.

Bobby Blair Are you new here? Esam taunts almost all the time, against everyone.
ESAM is the besssssst
i meet e e at comic con!!!
Get #taunt to get bodied
The hairless is back !
M2k deserved this set....
I'm telling y'all pika is top 5!!
Jonathan Parnes No no no no. Top 5 has characters like cloud diddy rosa etc pika is not top 5
Esam actually doing good? i refuse to believe it
Pickle Inajar 2 words. 2015 smashcon
lol m2k
I don't get how M2K couldn't read those constant Thunders from ESAM. He could've easily airdodged and drifted away from them midair. But whatever. M2K wasn't playing up to par, so ESAM deserved it.
The thunders from up throw??? Those are confirmed if that's not what you're talking about then nvm.
Up throw thunders are true you just have to read the DI.
M2K was playing up to par because he got 3rd. Up throw > thunder is guaranteed
+DJ Howard I'm pretty sure ZeRo drifted/DI'd away from them several times when they played. Don't know what M2K was doing.
+Prolific Pops Dude it's guaranteed no argument there. The distance traveled is all weight dependant and esam was messing that up. He said it himself in his return from shine video.
Anyone else notice ee and d1's friendship changed.
bad match up
