Miya played so well. Only dropped games to Sonix and Acola and got to winners finals without dropping a single game. What a monster. That is consistency and dominance.
And he overcame Acola aka his biggest demon. I think without a doubt Miya is the highest skilled player in ssbu rn. Sonix is very good too and super consistent but he plays the char with higher potential.
To think after some memes, and Japan being 5/8 of the Top 8, Sonix became the unsung hero of the Tournament The crowd actually cheered for him and on top of that, it’s Luminosity’s first ever Major win! NA successfully defended the event from Japan. Good shit Sonix
it's easy to say "this meta sucks" or "ult is dead", but these are just straight up some of the people grinding the hardest. well deserved W congrats to sonix, the mental fortitude these players have is insane and top 128 was so fun to watch, i think we're in a great place moving forward
Agreed, Sparg0 could be there, Leo could, Tweek could, but they dropped, they didn't even lose to the meta (besides Sparg0 losing to Ken), Tweek got eliminated by doble Fox, Leo lost to Peach and Fox, Sparg0 sort of lose to meta, Kazuya and Sonic lmao. Still Sparg0 could have beaten both.
@@substitutedoll5224lol you saying "cry about it" says everything anyone needs to know. You think anyone gives a shit enough to actually cry or even be emotionally invested? Clearly you get that way haha it's a game bro, and his opinion is valid whether or not you like it despite the nerfs never happening.
@@ElChicoBushnope, this has already been looked at, average game length is 3-4 mins, time outs are rare and this gf took longer than most. Why comment if you've not done any research?
As soon as Sparg0 got eliminated, I knew for sure that Sonix was going to win the Tournament. Sparg0 is the only one who can truly stop Sonix when he is playing at his best.
The villain, became the hero. I thoroughly enjoyed twitch chat this tournament. The majority were already assuming that Japan was going to take the tournament after having had a lot of their players reach top 8. "NA washed". "EZ dub for Miya". "Acola takes this easy". And yet, NA's Sonix mopped the floor with Acola and gave Miya 7 of his 8 tournament game losses. Really makes you wonder if Acola and Miya would win as much, if they competed in NA.
They most definitely would not, the results of Acola and Miya in NA prove this fairly easily. As much as people like to claim JP is the better region, nearly every Super Major where both regions peak talent is present, a player from NA wins out in the end. Genesis 9 - MKLeo Kagaribi 9 - Sparg0 BOBC5 - Sparg0 SSCON23 - Acola PP8 - Sonix
@@Risky_Boots999 Not the point. The question is would Acola and Miya be as dominantly winning in NA as they do in JP if they had to actually face the rest of the 6/10 top players consistently. The fact three different NA players have won where only one JP player has in Super Majors should tell you the answer.
It's actually crazy how many options Sonic has thanks to this mobility. And I didn't know most of them until watching Sonix because he's the only one using them. The guy's mastery of his character is insane. I hope we see these two play more often, they had incredible sets & adaptations.
@@nathanlevesque7812 crazy use of up air-bair combos and fairs to edge guard sometimes I know people other than sonix use these but he just uses them better
I was rooting for Miya, but I can't deny that Sonix maintained his composure extremely well. So many of these games were one or two interactions away from having a different winner. I can't imagine how stressful it is to play! The winner's final was pretty dominant from Sonix, but the grand final was down to the last stock every single game if I'm not mistaken. I think this player matchup will be a coin flip, like Sparg0-Sonix.
Sonix will become the best player in the world next year. He was already at the level but had terrible chokes in the past. Now, he's overcome that mental hurdle and he's beating the best players consistently and winning P-tier events, at times making it look easy as well.
I'm Japanese, but looking at the comments here, I laugh at how important it is to have a regional bracket decided by others. Sonix is the strongest, that's all.
As someone who followed Sonix since the Smash 4 days (back when his biggest threat was Sharpyzard within his own region, good times), I feel so happy that he defended NA from Japan. He's always been known as a lab rat and it's that dedication that has put him into the conversation for best player in the world. I don't care about what others think about how he plays, I love seeing his neutral play just as much as the combo game and edgeguards. Arriba RD!!! Arriba Sonix!!!
Stop talking about characters or countries, sonix is an amazing player that works really hard and who always help those who wants data for the matchup, he's a nice person that just want to win like every other competitive players He definitely deserves this (And congrats to miya that was honestly a good set)
Agreed, Miya is so good at adapting, and I love Sonix, he's so humble, meet him at Factor X, so cool and takes pictures and stuff, freaking goat mentality, love his attitude.
Sonix kinda played like a homie, man might play methodically but i wouldn’t say its boring/lame so it doesn’t surprise me when with the stigma of the few chars (steve, gnw, etc) get beat by a slower playstyle especially with how well hes been playing

Bad take, lowkey swords are more boring than actual scrapping. Gnw vs sonic lowkey is more hype than 90% of the top 8’s we have had the past year. Plus leo really strives when the opponent isn’t capable of mental though (like tweek)
@@skylarswoo7223 Do you know taking drugs is bad right? In no way shape or form watching a sonic is "hype". Game and watch is kinda boring to see as well. The reason Leo doesn't do well anymore is because the META has evolved. He should've exploited the Joker way more back when he was spamming Byleth. Now his Joker isn't as good as it was back then.
The current meta is so bad. There were so many hype sets and hype characters in this tournament who could've created an amazing top 8 but instead we were left off with 2 Sonics, Steve and Game and Watch. I really didn't care about the top 8 anymore at that point
@@Diddykong8775 Sadly. If this game had real patches. Sonic, Steve, Kazuya, maybe Minmin and some other characters would've get nerfed. Aegis foresight was broken and got nerfed to a more acceptable state. Joker was nerfed like 3 times because of Leo. Banjo is not viable, Hero is not consistent, Terry needs a bit of a nerf with some of his hitboxes, Sephiroth sucks a lot, Sora is really bad and they should've buffed Pirahna PLant
Top 4 of this tournament were Sonic, G&W, Steve, and Sonic again. No hate to the players- it only makes sense to play the character you’re best with- but boy is that a boring selection
The problem here isn't the game. Its the community. No other game has the level of toxicity than smash towards their players. No wonder Nintendo is trying to shut it down.
and it's such a shame because it's absolutely incredible that a game like this exists. What other game can you have where Sonic the Hedgehog is fighting Sephiroth? Or Mario is fighting Banjo and Kazooie? This game is GODLIKE and people act like they can't stand it 😭@@unovi8141
It’s really saddening how negative the disocurse is at times. I always try to combat it by not directly partaking in it, and just sharing good vibes instead.
Sonix is here, reaching far across these new frontiers With his life, he fights these fears In his hands, he holds the ones he loves Walks forward through the cold dawn Always to new horizons
@@hakirayleigh Oh, he beat them before too? 😅Sorry about that, I wasn’t aware. In that case, congratulations to both Sonix and Sparg0 for beating Japan. Hopefully Sparg0 finds answers to Ken, Miya, and Acola soon though, because I feel like Aegis vs Game and Watch specifically is gonna be a rough match up.
Miya was so respectful and patient. He could’ve timed out sonix but didn’t. He did amazing only losing to Acola and sonix is wild. Would love to see him play more.
How is that wild? Only half of it is decently hated characters, rest were cool. Unless you mean the entire top 8 was S tier characters, then yeah it’s a bit wild. No gluto or kurama (or Yoshidora, but he didn’t attend, doubt he would make top 8 in a tournament with this much talent, even though he’s amazing) just feels weird.
Congrats to Sonix and the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. I know people be saying NA but half of chat barely knew that DR was even NA and saying otherwise. Then when he was the last hope for NA, they be rooting for him all of a sudden. Kinda sucks but regardless, congrats to Sonix and also bringing the trophy to the DR against the best of not only the Americas, but even Japan. TK was on to something when he called it propaganda lol
@@hakirayleigh North America is a continent. South America a separated continent. Which is basically a 7 continent map thing. If we do 6 continent map thing, North America and South America are one continent. It’s weird.
@@thesuperjag and yeah, I’ve even heard 5 continents if you count Europe and Asia together as Eurasia. Some countries used to teach it as 5 or 6 continents but i think the standard is 7(?) Not that it matters in this discussion but it is interesting trivia.
Agreed! He also almost never pops off after winning, and at this tournament he did not pop off until the grand final was over. Glad his hard work is paying off😭
If Latin America was a different region it would just be a slaughterfest for Sonix and Sparg0 and maybe ShinyMark and MkLeo to dominate. I doubt it'd be fun
That was frustrating to watch, not because of the length, but because Sonicx kept going in with the lead. I’m like “don’t approach until he commits, make him approach you” but hey he’s the pro, and it worked out in the end. I guess gotta kept attacking until you finally break through,
Sonix if your hearing this I just want to say you have done an amazing job playing smash and this has to be your best performance yet I’m proud of you and all the other players who have attended smash ultimate tournaments and appreciate the work and effort you guys have put out. Soon I’ll join college next year and will be able to attend a class for E sports hopefully I’ll one day go up against you someday. You’re the biggest inspiration for me and others please keep up the good work and ignore the haters and trolls they are mad they can’t do what you do.
@@Jonas-jx3kw nice counter arguments, just slander I see. My turn, objectively it is boring to watch. Especially because of SpinDash clangs with every move and is safe on shield, so much that within 10 seconds Sonix spams 3 times empty spindashes on his own position at ledge to bait opponents. There is literally no punishment for it, all whiff punishments are misinputs from Sonix. If Sonix plays safe he literally cannot lose.
I remember people bashing sonix and harassing him every tournament he intended and did good in now people cheering for him truly happy for this dude and representing my favorite character I grew watching Sonic X On 4Kids TV
Como Mexicano siento muy lindo por Sonix ya que ha sido de los que mas ha grindeado en toda la vida del juego, y también pone en alto a LATAM y obvio a su país
some people catch onto how Sonix is constantly mixing his crossups, timings and aggression vs evasion, some people catch on to Miya's aggressive stage coverage vs defensive stage coverage. The whole set was basically “you cant obliterate with your advantage state! Im the fastest thing alive!” “you cant obliterate me with your combo game! Im the mashiest thing alive!”
I wish someone like Charles or Scabs were commentating the TOP4 matches, they can do even slower sets justice and keep things going. It mostly felt like TK and EE were just joking around and definitely weren’t at the top of their game. They clearly did not enjoy what they were watching, which is fine, everyone has their preferences, but I don’t think commentators should let it affect their output this much.
@@AndreasSaag Both of these players are just trying to win and put in the work to do so. Entertainment value is also completely subjective, I personally really enjoy watching the very methodical and patient play from players like Sonix, Miya, and Dabuz. That said, Charles has been talking about “cutting the fat” when it comes to Ultimate matches, and he’s been in the talks with TOs about the match timer. Probably looking to changing it from 7 minutes to 6 minutes, at least for a starter. I think it’s a good idea.
@@ahmadkazan5473After reading some of these comments I agree. Just saw a dude say Sonix is a great player but doesn't respect tomeouts. Like bro tf did you want him to do? Spindash into a charged up smash? Mfers just be yapping.
Sonix is the cristiano ronaldo of ssbu. He starts off as a promising talent who loves being super offensive focused, goes thru some shit, and then becomes the "hero" or counter to something else that is being dominant (messi in ronaldos case, japan in ssbus case)
@@timmasters1195 sonix is playing the game whether you like it or not, in his own style. Either accept it or not, who cares about some randoms opinions like mine or yours, at the end of the day they don't matter
@@Whalordius yeah, I was just pointing out how ridiculous your comparison was, between a footballer obsessed with goals and a player who refuses to attack for long portions of the game. I'm not saying anything about Sonix.
@@timmasters1195 I still think it applies. The "goals" are trying to be the best and to win tournies in sonix's case. Sonix isn't exactly camping every time hes not interacting, he's waiting for a moment where he can explode.
@@Whalordius mate, he goes to time out fairly regularly, and saying the goal is to win is a pretty loose definition. If you want to compare him to an athlete or person from sport, it would make more sense to use someone like Sam Allardyce or certain Spanish tennis players who did whatever it took to win, no matter how defensive or unpopular.
0:01 we only one second in & TK sound like he's ready to go to sleep. this shit prolly scarred him for the rest of his commentating career. fly high brother 🙏 but fr tho, this was a good ass set.
5:32 wow. Never even thought of doing that but he managed to make the bait and punish style work AND use his special to get across the stage. W sonix. And to any whiny miya Stan’s just know that if sonix fans are mature you can be to.
sonix has upgraded his gameplays he became aggressive yes he was a camper or the player with the biggest patience on the game. He got that patience and became aggressive in the meaning of capitalizing mistakes.
He still is the player with the biggest patience in the game. He prolly realized his character can get away with almost anything on shield, that's why he is more offensive at times.
@@gianz2066he used to be the complete opposite, most ssbu players don’t respect how much more offensive Sonix is now. Old sonix is basically modern ken
@@farewell418 most players don't respect how offensive he is now? I remember back in the days he had whole crowds booing him. And today we see crowds cheering for him
@@gianz2066 crowds are cheering for him because it’s one of the most stacked ultimate tournaments of all time and it’s grand finals. Another comment said “this is the first and only time people will cheer for sonic timeouts” which is pretty much true, probably not the only time, but a very rare occurence. Sonix is a lot more hype than he used to be, it was also not helping his case when he used to SD with one of the best recovery characters in the game, a LOT. Ken is still hated because he’s just old sonix in terms of gameplay, but I definitely agree with you that the crowd cheers for him more, but not really in the way you think. There would be a lot more people cheering for the opponent if the opponent wasn’t G&W.
As someone who likes to play Sonic aggressively, watching Sonix do the intricate things he does at that pace and precision is just magic, and the scariest part is he is still improving every time I see him play lol. So well deserved, let’s go Sonix !
It's hilarious how everyone hates on Sonic/Sonix but as soon as he is single handedly taking on Japan everyone acts like they are proud of him. Well get use to it America, your best player is officially now a Sonic who times out in grands. I can't deny Sonix earned his place, he's an amazing player but I'll never like sonic as a character and never respect timeouts.
Dude y'all actually don't consider the matchup. Even as Sonic, if you approach G&W (a choose to lose character), you almost always lose neutral. You have to make G&W approach. You cry about the one timeout and don't even pay attention to how aggressive Sonix is a majority of the time.
“ I will never respect timeouts”, bro thinks that we asked what he respects lol It’s funny how people who watch competitive smash are so against people using competitive strategies
@@jandaforever This matchup is even, maybe even losing for G&W. G&W also gets punished hard anytime Sonic gets an opening. Miya got 0-to-death or near 0-to-death several times in this set.
Beast mode paul somehow beat him in winners, and then also beat Sisqui in losers, which makes him the EU slayer I suppose. And then, one of Gluto's oldest bracket demons, Tea, got his revenge for Smash Factor and beat him pretty convincingly.
Sonix is my man good job 👏🏻 I know is super hard win with sonic because is super nerf mr game wach 169% light character but sonic cant kill easy so sonix are the best
Yeah, he didn’t pop off in any set in this tournament until the grand final was over. It’s clear he works hard, and in the Lights Out podcast he even emphasized the professionalism aspect of training and balancing your life well. So glad for him that his hard work is paying off!
Miya played so well. Only dropped games to Sonix and Acola and got to winners finals without dropping a single game. What a monster. That is consistency and dominance.
If Miya win sonix, he will be god
And he overcame Acola aka his biggest demon. I think without a doubt Miya is the highest skilled player in ssbu rn. Sonix is very good too and super consistent but he plays the char with higher potential.
@@RipeStoriesSonic has much harder execution in comparison to G&W
@@Eman02kGMiYa plays smarter, but Sonix plays the harder character. A low S tier character vs arguably the best character in the game is iffy

Everyone that is like
"Im NoT a BiG SoNiX fAn BuT"
just shut up, no one wants to hear it
Lmao how is it possible that people root against you so much that they chant “time him out” at you when up against sonix 😂
The current meta is so bad. There were so many hype sets and hype characters in this tournament who could've created an amazing top 8 but instead we were left off with 2 Sonics, Steve and Game and Watch. I really didn't care about the top 8 anymore at that point
Its what Sakurai wanted. No more patches.
I totally agree. I have to skip to the end, can’t stomach watching the entire thing.
@@Diddykong8775 Sadly. If this game had real patches. Sonic, Steve, Kazuya, maybe Minmin and some other characters would've get nerfed. Aegis foresight was broken and got nerfed to a more acceptable state. Joker was nerfed like 3 times because of Leo. Banjo is not viable, Hero is not consistent, Terry needs a bit of a nerf with some of his hitboxes, Sephiroth sucks a lot, Sora is really bad and they should've buffed Pirahna PLant

Good for Sonix representing all Latin America. Personally have never been a fan but found myself rooting for him after Light lost.
The entire country of Japan: We are inevitable
Sonix: And I, am _undefeatable_

They both really great. Sonix is playing a harder character. One of the hardest. Congrats to Sonix. Miya played really well even if it's -1 for GnW
The top 32 leading up to this was soooooooooo hype. I tuned out once top 4 started though, I just can't bring myself to care for Sonic or Steve.
Welcome to the new era of smash ultimate. Hype sets in top 8 are like an endangered species now.
@@MGRRSenatorArmstrong not true. There were multiple very hype sets in this top 8. A few at the end were not.
@@j.prt.979 only hype set was a fox ditto lmfao
hate the top 4 all you want but you CANNOT tell me that umeki beating muteace in the peach ditto was not hype.@@Aefax
Top 4 of this tournament were Sonic, G&W, Steve, and Sonic again. No hate to the players- it only makes sense to play the character you’re best with- but boy is that a boring selection
The problem here isn't the game. Its the community. No other game has the level of toxicity than smash towards their players. No wonder Nintendo is trying to shut it down.
finally someone else gets it
Why can’t they only fuck up this game, so many other games will be complely fucked thanks to nintendo
I'm at a point where I don't know what many fans and spectators are even seeing in the game because a lot of them do nothing but whine
and it's such a shame because it's absolutely incredible that a game like this exists. What other game can you have where Sonic the Hedgehog is fighting Sephiroth? Or Mario is fighting Banjo and Kazooie? This game is GODLIKE and people act like they can't stand it 😭@@unovi8141
It’s really saddening how negative the disocurse is at times. I always try to combat it by not directly partaking in it, and just sharing good vibes instead.
Sometimes you need to see a sonic alongside sonix in top 8 to see how much better sonix is than the others.
Sonix is here, reaching far across these new frontiers
With his life, he fights these fears
In his hands, he holds the ones he loves
Walks forward through the cold dawn
Always to new horizons
He is a smash bros player not a warrior of god

Miya was so respectful and patient. He could’ve timed out sonix but didn’t. He did amazing only losing to Acola and sonix is wild. Would love to see him play more.
Since when does G&W time out literally any character?
This was such a wild top 8. 1 GnW, 1 Steve, 2 Fox, 2 Peach, 2 Sonic lmao
How is that wild? Only half of it is decently hated characters, rest were cool. Unless you mean the entire top 8 was S tier characters, then yeah it’s a bit wild. No gluto or kurama (or Yoshidora, but he didn’t attend, doubt he would make top 8 in a tournament with this much talent, even though he’s amazing) just feels weird.
@@farewell418 oh it's not a bad thing, just was not at all on my bingo card lol
Glad we can end our freedom on Smash tournaments before the guidelines with an absolute bang.
Congrats to Sonix and the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. I know people be saying NA but half of chat barely knew that DR was even NA and saying otherwise. Then when he was the last hope for NA, they be rooting for him all of a sudden. Kinda sucks but regardless, congrats to Sonix and also bringing the trophy to the DR against the best of not only the Americas, but even Japan. TK was on to something when he called it propaganda lol
Dominican Republic isnt North America. Its Caribbean. But we agree about America as continent.
@@hakirayleigh North America is a continent. South America a separated continent. Which is basically a 7 continent map thing. If we do 6 continent map thing, North America and South America are one continent. It’s weird.

@@thesuperjag and yeah, I’ve even heard 5 continents if you count Europe and Asia together as Eurasia. Some countries used to teach it as 5 or 6 continents but i think the standard is 7(?) Not that it matters in this discussion but it is interesting trivia.
Sonix is normally super stoic in tournament the fact he couldn't stop smiling when he was holding the trophy is so adorable
Agreed! He also almost never pops off after winning, and at this tournament he did not pop off until the grand final was over. Glad his hard work is paying off😭
Amazing set! My boy Sonic is victorious!

@@LordDTwigotrue but I rather sonix win rather than acola tired of seeing Japan body everyone else
I'll be sure to show this video to anyone thinking of picking the game up so they don't bother.
Latin America should be considered a different region from NA tbh. Having different storylines makes competitive a better watch
If Latin America was a different region it would just be a slaughterfest for Sonix and Sparg0 and maybe ShinyMark and MkLeo to dominate. I doubt it'd be fun
That was frustrating to watch, not because of the length, but because Sonicx kept going in with the lead. I’m like “don’t approach until he commits, make him approach you” but hey he’s the pro, and it worked out in the end. I guess gotta kept attacking until you finally break through,

Sonix if your hearing this I just want to say you have done an amazing job playing smash and this has to be your best performance yet I’m proud of you and all the other players who have attended smash ultimate tournaments and appreciate the work and effort you guys have put out. Soon I’ll join college next year and will be able to attend a class for E sports hopefully I’ll one day go up against you someday. You’re the biggest inspiration for me and others please keep up the good work and ignore the haters and trolls they are mad they can’t do what you do.
Biggest inspiration for you? Do you also camp 7 minutes on elite smash with Sonic? Don't let me laugh.

It's my opinion
tell me you dont understand what you are watching without telling me you cant understand what you are watching@@Scythra 🤡
@@Jonas-jx3kw nice counter arguments, just slander I see.
My turn, objectively it is boring to watch. Especially because of SpinDash clangs with every move and is safe on shield, so much that within 10 seconds Sonix spams 3 times empty spindashes on his own position at ledge to bait opponents. There is literally no punishment for it, all whiff punishments are misinputs from Sonix. If Sonix plays safe he literally cannot lose.
lmao thats how the matchup is deal with it he isnt going to run at game and watch and get destroyed just for your entertainement@@Scythra
Ultimate crowds are funny, chanting a man who time stalls without a hint of irony.
Sonic is so BORING to watch though! Compared to some of the sets below... having Steve AND Sonic in top 8 is a snooze fest.
Miya plays G&W like he wants him to be banned, omfg! I'm surprised that Sonix was able to pull of a win!
Never rhought i wud see the day people start getting hype for timeouts
I remember people bashing sonix and harassing him every tournament he intended and did good in now people cheering for him truly happy for this dude and representing my favorite character I grew watching Sonic X On 4Kids TV
Como Mexicano siento muy lindo por Sonix ya que ha sido de los que mas ha grindeado en toda la vida del juego, y también pone en alto a LATAM y obvio a su país
アメリカ人が言う“NA saved”みたいな文書の「NA」が何を指してるのか考えたら「北アメリカ大陸(North America Continent)」で笑ってしまった。

少し前までは、アメリカvs日本vsメキシコvsヨーロッパだったのになぁ。まぁ日本vsその他で釣り合うから仕方ないのか
This was weirdly hype
some people catch onto how Sonix is constantly mixing his crossups, timings and aggression vs evasion, some people catch on to Miya's aggressive stage coverage vs defensive stage coverage.
The whole set was basically “you cant obliterate with your advantage state! Im the fastest thing alive!”
“you cant obliterate me with your combo game! Im the mashiest thing alive!”
Two great advantage states, greatest evasion vs greatest defense
Youll never catch me rootin for sonix but his run at pp8 made me a fan

I wish someone like Charles or Scabs were commentating the TOP4 matches, they can do even slower sets justice and keep things going. It mostly felt like TK and EE were just joking around and definitely weren’t at the top of their game. They clearly did not enjoy what they were watching, which is fine, everyone has their preferences, but I don’t think commentators should let it affect their output this much.
I would normally agree but Sonix destroying the entertainment value of the game needs to be addressed l.
@@AndreasSaag Both of these players are just trying to win and put in the work to do so. Entertainment value is also completely subjective, I personally really enjoy watching the very methodical and patient play from players like Sonix, Miya, and Dabuz.
That said, Charles has been talking about “cutting the fat” when it comes to Ultimate matches, and he’s been in the talks with TOs about the match timer. Probably looking to changing it from 7 minutes to 6 minutes, at least for a starter. I think it’s a good idea.
あcola、ミーヤー、Sonixの3強時代に突入か
私はそこに Sparg0 を含めます。 Sparg0 には一貫性のないパフォーマンスがありますが、どちらかというと Big 4 のように感じます。それらが解決されれば、彼は一貫して彼らと一緒にいるでしょう。
その三人には安定性で劣るけど一方で好調時は誰よりも強いのがsparg0だと思う、実際三人全員に勝ち越してる唯一のプレイヤーだと思うし

@@ahmadkazan5473After reading some of these comments I agree. Just saw a dude say Sonix is a great player but doesn't respect tomeouts. Like bro tf did you want him to do? Spindash into a charged up smash? Mfers just be yapping.
Sonix is the cristiano ronaldo of ssbu. He starts off as a promising talent who loves being super offensive focused, goes thru some shit, and then becomes the "hero" or counter to something else that is being dominant (messi in ronaldos case, japan in ssbus case)
Cristiano Ronaldo didn't become a record goalscorer by refusing to play the game

@@Whalordius yeah, I was just pointing out how ridiculous your comparison was, between a footballer obsessed with goals and a player who refuses to attack for long portions of the game. I'm not saying anything about Sonix.
@@timmasters1195 I still think it applies. The "goals" are trying to be the best and to win tournies in sonix's case.
Sonix isn't exactly camping every time hes not interacting, he's waiting for a moment where he can explode.
@@Whalordius mate, he goes to time out fairly regularly, and saying the goal is to win is a pretty loose definition. If you want to compare him to an athlete or person from sport, it would make more sense to use someone like Sam Allardyce or certain Spanish tennis players who did whatever it took to win, no matter how defensive or unpopular.

@@GSEleventhanks a lot!
sonix has upgraded his gameplays he became aggressive yes he was a camper or the player with the biggest patience on the game. He got that patience and became aggressive in the meaning of capitalizing mistakes.
He still is the player with the biggest patience in the game. He prolly realized his character can get away with almost anything on shield, that's why he is more offensive at times.
@@gianz2066he used to be the complete opposite, most ssbu players don’t respect how much more offensive Sonix is now. Old sonix is basically modern ken
@@farewell418 most players don't respect how offensive he is now? I remember back in the days he had whole crowds booing him. And today we see crowds cheering for him
@@gianz2066 crowds are cheering for him because it’s one of the most stacked ultimate tournaments of all time and it’s grand finals. Another comment said “this is the first and only time people will cheer for sonic timeouts” which is pretty much true, probably not the only time, but a very rare occurence. Sonix is a lot more hype than he used to be, it was also not helping his case when he used to SD with one of the best recovery characters in the game, a LOT. Ken is still hated because he’s just old sonix in terms of gameplay, but I definitely agree with you that the crowd cheers for him more, but not really in the way you think. There would be a lot more people cheering for the opponent if the opponent wasn’t G&W.
Fuck it I’m a Sonix fan now, he’s got a good chance to be #1 next season too
As someone who likes to play Sonic aggressively, watching Sonix do the intricate things he does at that pace and precision is just magic, and the scariest part is he is still improving every time I see him play lol. So well deserved, let’s go Sonix !
It's hilarious how everyone hates on Sonic/Sonix but as soon as he is single handedly taking on Japan everyone acts like they are proud of him.
Well get use to it America, your best player is officially now a Sonic who times out in grands.
I can't deny Sonix earned his place, he's an amazing player but I'll never like sonic as a character and never respect timeouts.
"Hilarious" = no couth, integrity, dignity; shamelessly fickle. Agreed, hilarious.
Dude y'all actually don't consider the matchup. Even as Sonic, if you approach G&W (a choose to lose character), you almost always lose neutral. You have to make G&W approach. You cry about the one timeout and don't even pay attention to how aggressive Sonix is a majority of the time.
“ I will never respect timeouts”, bro thinks that we asked what he respects lol
It’s funny how people who watch competitive smash are so against people using competitive strategies
