    One thing that's always amused me: The best Inking in Europe is called Space, and is also Europe's best Pyra/Mythra. The best Inkling in U.S. (albeit inactive) is Cosmos, who is currently U.S.'s best Pyra/Mythra.
    Cosmos... Space... Their names are synonyms.

    Hikaru and Gluto were absolutely amazing to watch. Seeing Donkey Kong pop off will never not be awesome, especially at the top level. I've never hated or been a huge fan of Gluto or Wario, but I sure was rooting for him in this tourney. He played out of his mind!

    I like Tea but he can really thank Kazuya on that one. To me, Kazuya is as big of a problem as Steve. Seeing them spam the same until it hits is utterly boring and I personally had sometimes Kazuya touch me when I was in his back when he attacked (and not attacking so no hurtbox extension)

      I mean, kazuya saved his ass against sisqui's samus, but otherwise pacman did most of the work. Even against glutonny, he most likely would have won with pacman too, but the other matchup is more difficult for wario and glutonny wasn't expecting it, so he switched.

    Hikaru is pronounced "He" "Car" "Ru", not hick-a-roo 🙂Ru is short, but if you can't manage you can say roo like in Kangaroo.
    A bunch of bad examples exist on UA-cam. This is a native person saying Hikari which is similar: ua-cam.com/video/9CwfOnXQ8EE/v-deo.html

      Also it's good to know that the letter "i" in a Japanese word/name is pronounced like "ee" instead "ih" or "ie"
      In fact I'm pretty sure all vowels in Japanese words/names follow a pretty predictable pattern similar to the one I just mentioned. The letter "a" being pronounced "ah", "e" being pronounced "ay", "o" being pronounced as "oh", and "u" being pronounced as "ooh"
      Just bringing this up because for me at least it made pronouncing Japanese words/names that I didn't know much easier after I learned about this. I don't speak Japanese though, so if I just said isn't true at all then just disregard it.

      @@drakejoshofficialyoutubech5569 its kind of hard to spell because they arent pronounced *quite* like english short vowel forms, but for e/えand o/お, just imagine saying "ey" without the y sound and "oh" without the ending "oo" sound.
      pretty accurate with the predictability thing though: the two most basic japanese alphabets are organized into five basic vowel sounds (with a few exceptions), just with different consonants in front of them each time.

The way riddles plays is super technical compared to tea. Riddles will look for super sweet combos and try connecting all his moves, but tea on the other hand will spam ewgf and then follow up with some big hitting moves. From what I saw, Tea's kazuya is the best, but Riddles is the best at fully utilizing the character. But yeah, I over analyzed that like crazy and I probably confused a lot of people haha.
