Pikachu may be privileged but being able to keep pace with Sonics privilege makes that matchup hella fun to watch, they really can just do DBZ bullshit under the stage no problem
Bro I am so happy for Cosmos, even though he lost, the fact he made Top 8 and had the best down air spike of the year against Sonix! I always believed in Cosmos!!
This was so hype to watch in person, glad I went this year. Also meeting ShinyMark, Sparg0 and Sonix was really cool (I met them last year at Smash Factor as well, but seeing them play in person again is cool). Happy that they all got top 8, and that ShinyMark won the entire thing. I've been following these guys' careers since Smash 4, just like the Naifu Wars old days, great to see them doing well.
Chat, dont hate me for saying this, but I think im finally coming around on watching Sonix play. Used to hate it, was so annoying to just see him run around and shit. But lowkey at least 75% of these sets, bro is going in and just fucking people up. Plus the edge guards look sick as hell.
He has one of the most beautiful advantage states in the current meta, and he's probably the best edgeguarder. When he's on, he's super entertaining. But when he has to camp, I get why, so I don't complain about it either. He's just so versatile.
1:09:28 I was literally saying bruh no the characters can consistently have this happen where they just casually surviving under the stage while scraping and continuing like it’s normal,BROKEN AH CHARACTERS
I feel like this was the best top 8 I have seen in like the last two whole ass years. Great stuff getting it out so quickly and props to all the amazing games and players!
Gackt’s Ness really was just like a standard enemy badnik in a Sonic game. Just standing in the stage waiting to be homing attacked by Sonix so he can continue with the level 😫
@@DrSwazz and a quick attack that has an actual hit box lol. And nair loops on pika confirm into death while pichu’s bair loops are just some damage while he hurts himself.
57:43 don’t shield. shielding it makes it safe. spot dodge or jump from it and pika has a lot of lag on the ground but he will be sliding so be wary of that
That last game of grands was so awesome. Sonix tried to lame out as much time as possible after he only had 1 STOCK LEAD, and because of that, Shiny made him pay. Shiny retook the lead, and because of all the time Sonix drained after literally taking 1 stock and being LAME, he didn't have enough time to win and Shiny cheesed him out. So satisfying. Even though Shiny had a percent lead at the end it was still last stock situation and anyone's game. Sonix even started getting momentum. But because he decided to run and camp for half the match he got timed out like a little bitch!
As soon as I found out shinymark won s factor I knew this would be the title! Literally pikachu had no results bc shinymark wasn’t playing and as soon as he comes back he wins a major. I knew nairo was gonna put pikachu on blast 😂
his pasts streams are in this channel's playlists tab, not on a different channel lol. But yeah they are in the description too, and yeah this video basically covers everything as it is just ripped directly from the stream but shortened down.
So that they are closer to being equal in viability, I wish Mario was reworked so that he has an "infinite" recovery like Sonic, or better yet nerf Sonic so that he's closer to playing like PM
Timing out Sonix in Grand Finals is one hell of a W imo. Sure time outs are cringe as a viewer I'm not denying that, but this was kinda epic at the same time. I hope it never happens again, but I didn't not have fun watching it. Sure the MU could've been a more fun to watch one, but Pikachu never wins anything or is in anything that I've watched as of late so, it was kinda cool ngl.
Nairo i can give u a tip with sepiroth, use his smash attack armor more i swear i never seen u once use it like a little mac player does, it aint much and its super specific but thats like the only thing in his kit i dont see u use optimal
Sonic still sucks to watch ain’t finna cap. SO boring. The whole “timing out Strat cuz I outspeed 80% of the cast” is just lame af. Any time I see a time where a sonic gets knocked out, I’m cheering for the other person off rip 💀. Timing out a sonic? Deserved. Good job shiny Plz delete sonic from the next smash game.
99% of Smash players couldn’t tell you the difference between an aggressive and a campy Sonic. Blind hate. That being said, this man getting 2nd yet again is just peak cinema.
"Your GSP is tremendously high"
Bro, I'm stealing that. Best complimensult I've heard in a minute.
Nairo finds a perfect balance between being supportive and cheerful and hating on Cosmos and it’s really impressive
He keeps on doing the elite smash shenanigans so he deserves it lmao

The DBZ stuff was hype. Wish more characters were able to clank under the stage like that.

I agree I feel like he’s played much more aggressively which is actually fun to watch as opposed to his usual camping play style
He only camped out Shinymark. And honestly, Pikachu is too broken to risk any unsafe options.
character development

He been doing it for years but most people that are watching the game dont even watch the game to realize that

Pikachu players are so privileged that they can play pikachu in every single smash game and still be a top player
I don't see any other pika player in top 8
@@Paradox_Of_CrotaI think he want to say "top tier"
him parrying that HA then timing him out was like an anime character losing after having their ultimate technique completely destroyed
😭 nah frfr
A naifu coming this far and WINNING is so damn sick

I feel like this was the best top 8 I have seen in like the last two whole ass years. Great stuff getting it out so quickly and props to all the amazing games and players!
I agree man... the shadic spargo set was prolly one of the most hype sets I've seen in years. I'm a corrin believer now lol
Gackt’s Ness really was just like a standard enemy badnik in a Sonic game. Just standing in the stage waiting to be homing attacked by Sonix so he can continue with the level 😫
Pikachu is the most powerful character in the history of the Super Smash Bros series 👑
Pikachu has literally never been bad, it's crazy
Yep, there was maybe a debate for fox but pika has the edge over him, competitively viable in every single smash game lol.
The fact that Pichu was at any point better than Pikachu in this game is crazy. Pikachu is literally Pichu with better weight and no self-damage.
@@DrSwazz and a quick attack that has an actual hit box lol. And nair loops on pika confirm into death while pichu’s bair loops are just some damage while he hurts himself.
hes the mascot of pokemon for a reason. hes also the strongest pokemon in the anime.

Editors did another great job!
Its really cool to see a Pikachu win
that was hype af i didn't expect camp land to be entertaining
26:00 se lo COOOOOOOOME COMPLETO 😵💫
18:35 I’ve got a real question too. You’ve seen Sephiroth cook in bracket???
57:43 don’t shield. shielding it makes it safe. spot dodge or jump from it and pika has a lot of lag on the ground but he will be sliding so be wary of that
not the HBOX jumpscare 😂😂
6:19 that was so fucking OD 🤯
Sonix had the kill at 46:54 with the same forward air he won the last game with. Guess he got nervous
I passed my midterm nairo, thank you so much for the encouragement 🙏
I appreciate you being such a POSITIVE figure
Congrats on passing
Where could I have watched this live?? I was looking for nairo stream during tournament

That parry from ShinyMark was nuts. That F Smash could have killed.

Shadic and Cosmos are my favorite US players, glad to see them doing well.
Someone im chat said he only knows “ Diablo Cono “ 😂😂😂
Sonix be like "how dare you use my own spells against me potter" 😂😂😂
Sonix timed out
nice
can I watch the VOD of him watching the whole tourney anywhere? or does this video cover basically everything?
he has his past streams in a diff channel, he linked it in the description
his pasts streams are in this channel's playlists tab, not on a different channel lol. But yeah they are in the description too, and yeah this video basically covers everything as it is just ripped directly from the stream but shortened down.

Thank you PikaGod for saving us from a Sonix win.
love these but watching nairo jinx everyone i root for is true pain
DAYLIGHT ROBBERY (hope Sonix escapes this 2nd place curse)
Sonix is so good and fun to watch now especially when he dookies on Steve
I love the tourney UA-cam vids, definitely a favorite of mine
About time a pikachu did smthn. I always said pika was broken
I don't think I've ever seen Sonix get timed out in a match and that sonic f smash parry was so disgusting damnn
Today I learned that cloud loses limit when he gets hit while charging 😮
Jump attacked the like button
I thought Faze kicked everyone out why is Spargo still using the faze tag?
Nairo rooting for both lmao
Holy hell, why does Meister look like Nacho Libre?
