My man LK had to face off two HC in a row but gets no mention in the title.
LK vs Leffen was so hype LK had some pop offs.
The cross up to send it to the final round was so hype
I legit died inside when LK dropped the combo with Leff on the wall and Leff made the giant comeback right after. I would’ve been so tilted if I were LK haha
@@IchBinFreierGeist Right? The fact that he regained after that and almost won the set still shows insane composure, that was an absolute dagger drop
That tragical super miss input that probably cost hil victory...
the BRC yozansen crossup from LK was just magical the crowd went insane lmao
LET'S GO! LK and apologyman had an amazing run, and umisho was amazing as usual! that was a fun top 8
that LK wall stick drop was so painful to watch, still an incredibly hype match
i dont care if he didn't win LK was playing his heart out
LK and ApologyMan always being on the losing side of classic sets T_T
yeah men i felt like he was robbed, he did the most amazing options out of imagination and still lost to that infinite wall carry
i'mma never stop being a L effen hater@@xaridanf.m2069
Crowd popping off everytime someone wins against leffen lmao
Happy Chaos is definitely a heel character too lol.
I come from the smash community, it's good to see everyone else gets it
@@ricardoludwig4787 same, the groan I let out seeing him on dustloop as an evo winner coulda caused an earthquake LMFAO.
Also absolutely tracks that he would pick happy chaos
@@EpsilonKnight2 Leffen is just a heel in general, been like that since Melee. Heard good stories like on The Yard and stuff, but anything online? hard to like em lol
WE LOVE TO SEE LK POP OFFS. LETS GO LK
mad props to LK, hypest moments in the top 8.
Amazing tourney! Loved everything but especially LK's matches.
Dude looked more well rested here than in the brazillian tourney and the kombucha was straight up a power up. 😅
LK's movement is so ahead of the game, lots to appreciate about the surprise factor in his approach game. Well fought
LK VS LEFFEN WAS THE BEST SET I HAVE EVER SEEN
agreed
Its so cute seeing tempest play he enjoys himself so much haha
This is why I love yipes been seeing for a minute people been quiet for floe, and rip ari.man knows how to always give respect and keep the room hype and in check, Hype father of the fgc TampaNeverSleeps y’all haven’t missed and these commentators yall been hitting us with have never disappointed keep driving the community y’all hard work is paying off Tenfold
28:20 man with KFC bucket as a hat appears on screen.
Mad respect for Yipes
Slash's May is so practical. No fancy tricks, just pure footsies and defense. His pressure sequences are also insane.
1:06:25
This is the type of sequence I'm talking about. He's looking like HC or something, with how he handles his mixups and pressure resets. Nothing crazy, just good, potent mix.
1:12:10
5K>FRC>[2]8H is actually crazy. That charge must be frame perfect, unless you get some kind of charge privilege during RC. 5K>6H is already tricky since she has a 6K which prevents you from buffering forward while pressing 5K.
1:13:22
This round is a masterclass on how to structure May pressure and it call starts from a sick abare after meteors.
5k 6h isn't tricky it's just a Gatling lol, also blocking meteors in the air makes it way less plus in this case
You do get charge privilege during RC! All you need to do is 28HS, no charge required, if it's an FRC.
@@lukeblaker8009 5K>6H>[4]6H is pretty much the reason I own a hitbox now. That shit is personally hard for me on stick. I mean Slash is on pad, so it's not too bad, but for me, on stick, it was brutal.
@@lukeblaker8009 yeah, 5k>6H isn't tricky, but charging after this might be. I struggled quite a bit while practicing this, but now it's second nature tbh
Leffin wins: Mild applause
Umisho wins: AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!!!
well one has a major history of toxic behavior and the other is umisho so it makes sense.
She deserves it
good
UMISHO NUMERO UNO
CAMPEONA VERDADERA DEL MUNDO
AND SHE FUCKING DESERVES IT LETS GO UMISHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Umisho is straight up amazing
The GOAT
LK couldn't input 236236S to save his bracket :(
Heart breaking. Huge momentum swing
If I had a nickel for every time a sin has won a major as a counterpick I would have two nickels
Damn when was the other time?
@@juniperrodley9843 funny enough, it was tempestNYC lol, in last years CEOtaku
yipes is really dedicated to his waifu, damn hahaha
good shit man, I love millia too
Wow some of these matches were pretty crazy. Congrats to UMISHO.
I wish I saw more top 3 (or top 8 for that matter) Mays
It's always a treat watching Slash swing the anchor
2:21:51 this is such a hype comeback with the music.
My heart can't take this man...
Umisho the G.O.A.T! You go sis 🔥🔥🔥
Love the atmosphere set by the commentators. Would love to experience an event like this one day. Keep up the amazing content, gents.
It's always a good time with Yipes on the mic
Im just here for apologyman
LK showed up 🔥🔥🔥 his movement is like nothing I’ve ever seen and his pop offs are badass lol
Its wild how yipes can find himself in situations where he doesnt have the specialized knowledge commentators are typically expected to have and dude just makes it work through the sheer weight of charisma and color commentary. Genuinely inspiring
For FLOE ❤
1:30:04 the single best moment in the tournament
Happy Chaos’ block animation action appears for a few frames before Leffen gets hit. Did he actually react to the crossup but try to 6p?
That grand finals was so hype. We gotta nerf Millia.
Yes, you whiners have no one else to nerf except her, although she was the weakest character in this top8...
They are gonna cry no matter what. Its in their nature.
i love it how every time leffen takes a match its almost fully just silence, then everytime anyone wins against him the entire crowd pops off
Slash hype!!!!
"Hit em with the Yo Johnson" fucking legendary
Damn! Slash’s May is sick.
Makes me wanna pick up the character tbh.
2:00:50 why did this break me?!?! This is commentary duo of the month!
"Is that a Pal?"
"Oh its a Pokémon... my bad" 😅😂
42:05: Burst Thirst leave in a hearse goes CRAZY
56:35 Guilty Pal
2:08:46 “DADDY’S HOME! OPEN UP!! 😈”. Umm…😬
LK vs Leffen looked more like grand finals than grand finals
I love how LK is the people's champion of this tournament run. The GOAT.
Leffen LK may be the best set of guilty gear strive ever played
LK really was fucking around In the first round vs tiger pop then said, “Time To Lock In”
This commentary is so good
That had to have been a Pal
Umisho had me cheering for tempest after that switch to sin
UMISHO had me cheering for both of them after that switch and damn did they both deliver
did he said “makima did nothing wrong”? 53:35
Looks like a good game but the huge HUD annoys me so much !
Umisho’s jump on dps were too dirty
Imagine if Gobou showed up at Frosty with his Asuka, with everybody in Top 8 asking "wtf is he doing here?!"
@konakonizumi1869 lol
LK is a king.
Looove yipes, but would have preferred someone who has at least a decent understanding of the game in its current state. He did a good job despite his lack of knowledge, but it was sort of awkward at times.
When BlazBlu was at Evo years ago, Apologyman missed his set and got DQ’d. Turns out he had diarrhea so for a while we called Diarrheaman in SoCal. He played Hakumen in BlazBlu back when we still did locals here.
Yipes with the Foamposites though...
is it true that apologyman microwaves his cereal??
microwaves his cereal milk specifically
LK my goat
Ahh..... The sweet taste of leffen getting bodied by a sol, umisho is my goat fr
LK is that guy
when you leo into everyone
but elphelt every time you fight umisho
did he give her that for free or am i crazy?
Umisho is really good against his Leo, he usually switches it up against her.
UA-cam comments slowly discovering the concept of character matchups.
Umisho is dating (dated?) Razzo who was one of the best Leos. She is very familiar with the matchup
Did you watch the winners finals? The Leo wasn’t cutting it
umisho is crazy good at the leo matchup
For everyone saying they threw in grand finals, allow me to explain what the tempest umisho match up is before you make yourself look dumber.
If you’ve watched any amount of North American strive in the past few months you’d know that top 2 is basically always tempest umisho. At the very start of their show down, tempest beat umisho by counter picking off Leo into ky/sin. That was during CEOTaku. It’s needless to say, that umisho has tempest’s Leo down to a science, which is why he swapped. During ECT, tempest again tried to counter pick ky against umisho in grand finals, which she was ready for this time. This time she shot the counter pick down like it was nothing. This left tempest in a checkmate situation where he either plays a weaker secondary which umisho has obviously planned for, or doesn’t take any chances and play Leo again. He would probably lose anyway because he just can’t seem to figure out her sol. I don’t remember if he swapped back to Leo or not during ECT, but the conclusion was the same. Umisho easily reset the bracket and beat tempest. Now we come to frosties. Again umisho and tempest meet in grands. From playing her just before in winners, he knows that his Leo still can’t deal with her sol. He’s obviously not confident that his ky/sin are good enough currently, so he switches to elphelt. Elphelt may not be a great character, but she’s certainly a cheap one, and winners finals showed that. Tempest has also been excited for elphelt and practiced her a bunch beforehand. Understanding that none of his characters are ready for umisho, he takes a gamble and plays elphelt instead to see if he can gimmick her out. After it does work for a round, umisho switches to sin who she’s been practicing and has a good matchup against elphelt. Sin is also currently top 5 so this idea that she’s sandbagging when she’s going from one top 5 character to another is ridiculous. Umisho starts winning games again so she can’t switch. Tempest is now stuck between switching back to Leo and maybe winning before she switches back to sol and stomps him, or trying to ride it out with elphelt and take the gimmicky secondary fight. He choose the latter and won a few games, but lost in the end.
If you’re not involved with the meta of the game or don’t understand the history, maybe take a second to think about why people aren’t playing their normal characters before assuming it’s sandbagging. This isn’t legacy guilty gear, most people aren’t character loyalist. And even then, guilty gear has always been a ridiculous match up heavy game so compensating for that is very smart.
This is such a long winded response when Tempest admitted they felt good about elphelt and if they couldn’t get started against Sol with Leo it would be useless.
@@null-wq5cp well mfers don’t care what tempest says and just wanna complain in UA-cam comments so
@@null-wq5cp also it’s worth stating that I wrote all of this before I heard about this. It’s my first time hearing about the fact that he addressed that and I wrote that all down from memory
@@RapunzelRed Yeah because it was a pretty wild pick for everyone to see happen. Temp should’ve opted Sin vs Sol. But since it happened already it wouldn’t have been the counterpick Umisho would have unexpected.
tl;dr
1:05:52 LK coulda had this if he didnt choke😢
Umisho its top 1 sol now. Sorry for you Mocchi.
ventus intensifies
I gotta see a new mirror match between those two. It would be so hype it would surely kill me
Hype ass top 8
“Deuce deuce, You guys gotta take a crap on each other” - yipes 2024
Is that guy wearing a KFC bucket?
Yeah I was sitting a couple rows behind him and it was a kfc bucket
🤓🍿
ain’t no fucking way ppl still got bored ape or whatever the fuck it’s called as a pfp💀
I dont care who wins
I just want Leffen to lose
What was that sandbagging in GF? Do they just let that shit fly now?
Do you know what counter picking is
why did tempest throw the match in grand finals for umisho to win? that was so lame
Because tempest already qualified in the world tour.
People who are not going to learn elphelt rekka weakness are always going to blame players. Umisho used sin which had clear cut advantage over elphelt rekka aka her Trump card and Know how to tackle elphelt move. She had a good understanding of the character matchup at this point.
WDYM threw he was playing against god damn UMISHO
Go back and to their previous match and you will understand why he didn't even bother with Leo in GF
LK losing while Umisho “nword in discord chat” winning makes me sick
Bro, rat looks like a male abby from last of us 2 fr!!!
Idc if you play happy chaos you’re lame 😂😂😂😂 i said what I said
The commentators acting gangsta is funny x)
?
you talking some straight-up yaya 🙄
LK clown still hasn't realized that you can only win this game with meta characters like Nago, Leo, Sol and Chaos.
The grand finals are a shame, as usual.
They simply changed the characters to show that you can win with any character, although before that they played with Leo and Sol... Such a show
It seems that they simply decided to skip Millia into the top 8 at this tournament, because some people complained a lot all this time... In any case, even if this is not a staged event, I doubt that Rat could beat anyone there. Millia is still an underdog in this game. Her gameplay is still cut and gutted. She doesn't feel like a full-fledged character compared to most of the roster. Rat's skill allowed her to get little closer to the finals, but there is still a huge gap between Millia and the meta gorillas.
