The production value of Le’odysse is 👌
Probably the best venue of any major
That is putting it lightly. Did you see the entrance for Grand Finals? Felt like I was watching some big time reality tv show or something.
@@mamotalemankoe3775 ikr
L’Odyssey was seriously amazing. Great to have a major with so few ad breaks. Truly a showcase of just how much of an event can prioritize viewer experience - in person and online! Also loved how they used highlights to fill out the time between matches
Yeah, it kinda sucks NA has to make 100x profit for every big event while paying the top players with crumbs. I understand the purpose is to make money but they could find a happy balance.
In total, Ultimate has had 30 different players win Majors/SuperMajors since Ultimate came out. 11 won their first major THIS YEAR. That is insane.
For those wondering here's the numbers for every other year along with the names of the players
1 for 2018 (Tweek)
14 for 2019 (Zackray, Leo, Marss, Nietono, Shuton, Ally, Kameme, Gluto, Abadango, Samsora, Esam, Nairo, Tea, and Kuro)
0 for 2020
4 for 2021 (Proto, Light, Kola, and Peli)
and lastly, 11 for 2021 (Quidd, Cosmos, Spargo, acola, Ken, Yoshidora, Sonix, Onin, Miya, Bloom4Eva, and Riddles)
@@drakejoshofficialyoutubech5569 there's two 2021
@@rafabastos4609 And how's that?
@@drakejoshofficialyoutubech5569 Maybe he means 2020 and not 2021?
@@drakejoshofficialyoutubech5569 they meant 2021 has both 4 and 11, the second looks like it should read 2022
Marss saw there would be an Olimar in his pool at le'Odyssey and said "nah" lmao
Tea was just too hot and acola was just too cold Zeta sweep is good .
So happy that Japanese players are getting more recognition
Glad to see Miya bounce back, it's not easy competing at such a young age and I know he's had a lot of difficulties. Hopefully he can stabilize and continue to bring the heat we know he's capable of.
I love Miya he plays g&w at like 2 times speed
I heard he had a bit of a character crisis before the tournament. I hope he’s regained confidence in his G&W. But I could easily see him developing a nice secondary too
Is he the same age as Acola?
@@mamotalemankoe3775 he's 18, two years older
Ludwig's Invitational is so stacked man, and imagine how would've been with players like Miya, Proto, Yoshidora, Hero and Kameme as well. It would've been insane 😢 maybe next time
what is crazy about Tea is that he doesn't play that much on smashmate( wi-fi ladder) unlike many other high level players in Japan .
he doesn't attend any locals .
he doesn't attend any regionals .
He just attends majors and mostly majors outside Japan . Yet his results are so consistent .
I keep wondering when does he even practice the game . whenever Tea streams , all i see him do is play FD Kazuya dittos on elite smash lol
Super happy to see Tea win on a big stage like L'Odyssée. I feel like Tea is the most underrated top player currently. He's so often left out of the conversation of top 10 players worldwide, despite having an incredible tournament record as of late.
Since June of 2022, Tea has placed top 3 at every major tournament he's attended, and has only been outplaced by players from Japan and Mexico (MkLeo). This is especially impressive considering all of these tournament performances have been outside of Japan.
-2nd at Battle of BC 4 (Canada) only losing to KEN
-1st at Crown 2 (US) over Dabuz
-3rd at Double Down 2022 (US) outplaced only by MkLeo and Protobanham
-3rd at Ultimate Wanted 4 (France) outplaced by Shuton and Zackray
-1st at L'Odyssée (France) over Cosmos
Doesn't compete as frequently as other top players, but Tea has been super consistent for the past 5 months.
Tea's destruction of Cosmos was disgusting, that 6-0 made Cosmos look like an amateur specially against Aegis.
From clutchmos to washedmos
@@janswhatsupdoc Cosmos is sadly a choker and not a closer.
@@Pm3m_Dia uh no it does exactly mean tea demolished cosmos
@@Pm3m_Dia Uh, nope. Several of these games weren't even a third stock situation.
L'Odyssée was DIFFERENT, what an amazing tournament.
I feel like we're getting to a point where NA's dominance on the world stage is being contested by Japan pretty solidly now.
What dominance 0_O
The best players are Mexican and Japanese..?
@@marcmothersole8265 mexico is part of North America. ????????????????????????
@@marcmothersole8265 Mexico is part of NA
@@marcmothersole8265 yo! Where's the Light, Kola, Gluto, Tweek, respect at? I honestly wanna say Bloom but I guess they haven't done much international yet, but that Bayo be moving tho. But yeah, Mexico is considered NA. Don't confuse NA with US of America alone. Japan really was always nice with it tho.
Kinda surprised Nao didn't get a mention outside of losing to Miya. Got upset by shachi in his second match of the day and then tore through Losers beating Kinaji, Futari wa, Jogibu, Abadango and Yamanaction for 9th
The grand finals 6-0 from Tea was wild. Utter domination
Tea sent Gackt, his own teammate, to the horrors of the French Dimension all for his own selfish gain.
What a betrayal.
I’m gonna say it...
Top 10 anime betrayals
@@silverpotato4272 I watch too many Nairo clips smh. Thought it was gonna say optimal, I'm so sorry.
Cosmos finally accepted Corrin back, after all this time.
*Cries in Corrin fan*
Cosmos still lost in the end...
*WEEPS in Corrin fan*
11:19 oh god i can hear the heartbreak
To be fair, those Odyssee pop offs are not the same without the sound of the french crowd.
So you’re telling me there’s a Samus main in Japan who just beat Kameme and Proto that I’ve never heard of?! Those are such insane wins he must be up there in contention with Sisqui for the best Samus player right now
Quick French tip. You don't need to say the "e" in "Le" Odyssey. It's said "L'Odyssey". It works this way for certain words. Its a rule similar to "a" and "an" in English.
Teas the fucking best, I love that guy
Glad to see Tea is still playing and not only that, but winning majors
I hope France has shown to the whole word that we can have BIG events with BIG prod
"Pg stat's epilepsy disclaimer"
NAILED IT!
I gotta say, France events look like they fucking RULE. Love seeing France emerge as the European giant in smash
@@wasabisniffles Aw, thanks man! It really means a lot to us, I hope you having a beautiful day !
ProtoBanham is the only player in the world who is actually *buffed* by jetlag.
Yoshidora is so sick and I'd love to see him compete in North America. Unfortunately he works full-time *and* he's a husband and a father so it's a very open question of whether he can attend SWT.
How is that unfortunate?
JK I get what you mean. I want him to compete more, too. However, him being a top player yet has a full-time job AND a wife + kids... THAT'S impressive.
knowing how rough the hours are in Japan, its incredible he is as good as he is with soooooooo little time to play, truly impressive.
In his stream, He said that he would take remaining paid holidays to attend SWT.
Zeta division has positioned themselves as the Org with the strongest smash team, maybe only rivaled by moist. Excited to see the Zeta bois even more internationally!
Yaura and Asimo live on an island in Japan called Shikoku. We hope they will be active and Shikoku will become famous.
i'm surprised that y'all still haven't made a video about amsa getting his first major win
They mostly concentrate on Ultimate don't they?
@@factandsuspicionpodcast2727 yes but amsa winning is like one of the biggest things in melee, and they do videos on melee so missing out something like this is just silly
@@penny1672 Ultimate just takes more importance. I am sure they will cover the AmSa win down the road.
@@penny1672 Melee is overrated and nothing but outdated jank move on bro
@@kisameh420 just because you don't like it doesn't mean that others feel the same, i enjoy both games and this is a a channel that uploads for both games, so chill out
Ah yes, Japan, my favorite nation. Land of anime and absolutely terrifying DLC wielders and sometimes pac man
Its not always DLC tbh. All of Japan top players have really solid non-DLC
It’s the land of character loyalists really
Bowser, Pichu, Hero, Took Link, Yoshi, Doctor Mario, Inkling
Not that all these characters are bad, but they’re certainly rare picks in the meta
if you think its the 'land of anime' youve never been there, stop being a wierdo nerd, u prolly sexualize asian women too.
And sometimes Pac-Man lmaoooo
Is there a deep dive on the current scene in Japan? Maybe some region breakdowns would be a good idea
I'd take at least 2 videos given how dense in high to top players their scene is
Nice to see Japan dominate the international scene
If there was any country other than Japan that I wouldn't mind dominating, it'd be Japan.
L'Odyssée
Comona reading L'Odyssée : **L E O D Y S S E Y**
blooms brawler might need its own vid at this point that thing is an enigma
I’m am terrified that proto wins American majors and loses Japanese majors. That means Japan is crazy.
Yeah people wanna knock him for that, but his world rank can literally be considered better than his Japan rank right now and it's insane lol. He's like a slightly nerfed Leo (who still basically dominated Mexico as well) but Japan whole top 20 is a threat to their top 5 at any time.
Don't worry, the Ludwig invitational just proved that Japan isn't quite as strong as we thought they were. Tea couldn't even get into the main tournament and NA's best demolished Japan's best (Acola even lost to Zomba at the invitational and Kola and Light at Summit). Leo just has to use Joker against Proto's Min Min and I think that would complete that cycle.
@@alphagriffin3425 acola won LMMM and got 2nd at LSI beating light dabuz riddles onin sparg0 who are top ten NA locks. Acola also got the runback on Zomba
@@alphagriffin3425 Judging by only one is very foolish.
4:10 This is actually untrue. Bayo is one of the only characters that raindrop doesn’t work on. Mr. R didn’t know that at the time though
Well who would really know that type of specific interaction?
@@myoblivion420 A Sheik player probably ought to.
I reckon Mr R would have won that set if he'd had a bit more time dedicated to his Sheik, as it is he only dropped the Chrom very recently and I think his Sheik still has room for improvement (which is scary as it's already really good).
Why would Asimo try and challenge ness up B so late in the animation? 😂
Odyssey music when talking about L'Odyssée I see you editor
Hoping for a Dream Hack Rotterdam analysis of the difference between Tilde and Larry's Falco (in a similar style to the Bayo and Little Mac videos).
Bump
After you mentioned Hero, the best Bowser in the region, I was hoping the next guy mentioned would be Bowser, the best Hero in the region.
Wait that's a thing?
One of the busiest Smash weekends in a lonnnnng time
*2 months
Just hearing how any of these character specialists in Japan are smacking around any of their top 5 in tournaments is insane lmao. Scary asf I'd be impressed with myself if I joined a 100 person tourney and was somehow top 110.
Tough loss for Zackray. He is one of my
Favorite players.
Pacman handing Steve the meat I see :)
Im fatherless
I'm a childless father hmu
I knew it
Meow
Do you main Steve
Same
What about CA with smash legends a 256 person bracket with almost all of the top Central and South Américan talents?
Excellent video as always, but the HE in HERO is pronounced like "HEretic"
10:15 BETTER THAN LEON!?!?!
Yes
Not a huge deal but Raindrop actually isn’t true vs Bayonetta. Mr. R mentioned that he needs to work on the technique but he needs to learn what characters it works on too lol
If Miya goes to apex then SWT Finals will be his 2nd not first overseas event
begging the pgstats team to learn about french elision lol
when are you guys gonna cover titi’s 2-2 run at dreamhack rotterdam??? kids been going crazy lately
yessss. i lowkey love that pools had high stakes, but that is tragic 😂
Amsa vid soon?
did acola play his weird minimal resources minigame this time like he did at Summit?
Second time Tea wins a tournament in Europe
bro why does everyone pronounce l’odyssée wrong 😭 ik it’s not that big a deal, but i mean it’s not that hard??
Bcz they don’t know French? Why else lmao
@@silverpotato4272 I mean yeah, but like, assuming they watched the tournament, wouldn’t they just learn how to say it anyway? and why not look it up instead of butchering it 😭 but yeah you’re right lmao
Zeta picks winners, the most entertaining winners
Proto is farming the U.S.
Best solo Sheik Eim? I though Eim also played Byleth
All I have to say
PAC GOD
Lol now there are 2 game and watches
gluto need to take some time off man, hes condition is doing bad for him
No back in blood talk sadge
pa-cara-man
RIP dreamhack
I always think it's l4st talking
It’s loh dee seh 🙂
L4st is my father and hbox is my mom
You put a Riddles clip to start your video. But riddles is canadian…
Bro America isn't USA only, did you know that countries like Canada, Mexico, Honduras, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Honduras and many other not only exist but ARE LOCATED IN AMERICA??? Crazy right????
@@doncho unless you watched the video with audio muted, you should know why I said america and Riddles is on that clip... lol
GLOOTINI
Bro what was the tourney so rushed for why couldn’t they just let them play instead of deciding who moves on based off stats. Lame as hell
so Gluto got bullshitted out of a tourney because of bad rules... you hate to see it
If you ask me marss didn’t go cause he knew he’s washed
Zackray looks washed ngl
Lol
