For everyone wondering why I'm speaking so quietly in the video it's because it was super early in the morning and I didn't want to disturb my neighbors or get noise complaints
I can't believe were in a timeline where DK is actually pretty dang viable. His advantage state was always nuts, but I didn't think anyone would push him this far because of the "low tier" stigma he has.
@@2LoopMk No not really. Acola has defeated top Japenese players with DK (although he of course plays Steve more). Chunkykong has also made a lot of good noise at Let's Make Moves Miami (he even defeated a top Steve main and made top 13). That's 3 players and they all played DK well at many different HUGE tournaments. Not just locals, majors and packed regionals. That says a lot about our meta rn.
I feel like what Larry's got going on rn is everything I want in a smash channel. No pandering yelling or unnatural comedy. Analysis, tournament reactions, character breakdown, and top player insight & wisdom. There's a certain kind of modest honesty I feel while watching. Loving it.
Fun fact: Before this tournament, Bloom was disliked by a big part of the france community. He is Gluto's demon and he's a serious threat to become the number one in Europe. But at the start of this tournament, it was announces he joins BMS (the french team behind Raflow). So now, the french crowd loves him, that's why you can hear some vuvuzela everytime he takes a stock against Hikaru. It's cool to see Europe united like that. Also Tea and Hikaru are superstars in Europe, you can see them play with the crowd after every set, it was crazy.
@@crescentryoshi3717 Well, there's still some rivalry between France and UK to decide which is the best EU country. Bloom plays a weird character, he's 16 and he's winning against our local hero. Also, Gluto stuggle against Bayo partly because of his tendinitis. Clearly, Bloom is an awesome player but it can be bitter for some Gluto's fans.
I've never seen Hikaru play before, but I really like him lol. Awesome seeing a dk do so well, and he's a player with personality which is always fun to watch.
Hikaru got 3rd at this EU major and Abadango got 3rd at a previous one, I need EU to keep inviting more JP players besides the usual names to their tourneys it's so great to watch
3:27 as a Marth main, I can say I don't like this Match-up either, although I do believe Marth has an easier time against DK because Marth can combo this Monke WAY more than Lucina could. Marth can also kill DK way earlier, which is super crucial against heavies that can easily cheese you at any moment. Of course if you suck at landing tippers, you might as well play Lucina. Thankfully, I don't suck :)
I have always said that DK is solo viable. I've mained the character since the start of the Smash series and I always knew that when fully optimized, Donkey Kong can go toe to toe with even some of the best characters.
I fight DK on a regular basis and I know for a fact that DK is actually really good. He's got 3 top reps placing well at majors (Hikaru, Chunkykong, and Acola on occasion), AND he is absolutely busted online.
I fought so many haters people kept saying “His disadvantage is trash he’s automatically bottom 5” but I explained to them about Hikaru but nobody listened glad Hikaru dominated here now people are jumping on the bandwagon 🤣
Actually top 5 though? I don't believe so. Even finishing top 10 this season will not be that easy for Gluto, unless he finishes well in the SWT. There's like 15 potential top 10 players this season. And losing to non-top 10 players like Hikaru, Bloom(x3), Gackt, Mr.R, Jahzzo, will only add to the decline in ranking. That tendinitis is killing him.
*I too like chrom more than roy, plus Roy's inconsistent spots ain't it* *ALSO DK MY GOAT LET'S GO HIM AND CHUNKYKONG CAN WIN A MAJOR WITH DK I BELIEVE*
@@penny7551 Idk even then I think there is still an argument for Mac. MKLeo almost lost to Peanut while playing Byleth which is an incredible feat. Lost his final stock by a forward tilt which could have easily been wiffed and little Mac could have punished. The fact it was against like Leo who is probably the most adaptive opponent ever is what makes this so insane. I think Mac has a chance. Gannondorf well I cannot really say there is anything for him but... I still want to believe someone can do it in a tournament setting. Gannondorf is extremely strong for every hit he does and even stronger when nobody wants lose to a gannondorf in bracket due to embarrassment.
@@elitecombine5373 well, I guess I agree to that. Mac maybe yeah, possible if he is good enough. But ganandorf I can't see get any top 8 at majors ever but, One can dream

We love being considerate of our fellow human beings
Sounds like your commentating golf
Honestly, I'm quite enjoying the Larry lurr ASMR lmao
Thin walls?
Screw dem neighbors
It must be nice for Larry to learn that his main is solo viable
"Larry learned"
The Larry ASMR

It's one tournament

@@Spyder-Marth ok I see your point thx man 👍
I'm still waiting on Ridley to get some shine. I feel like Ridley is the Ultimate equivalent of Melee Puff.
@@Shyningfade you don’t mean in terms of viability do you?
i love how into it the crowd was, stuff like this makes me love smash

Man, I just love to see how much fun this guys having on stage!
I wasn't expecting ASMR larry
1:31 Some good ads there. My favorite part is the wide Larry XD

EU always has been fond of JP so expect that to happen
Thanks for putting the osts in the video! I appreciate it!
DK being able to jump around with Wario's bike is my new favorite thing in ultimate.
Larry sounds like a golf announcer here
The monkey noises are top tier.
Two of the funniest Smash players were at this tournament, Tea and Hikaru
“DK’s better than Fox”
Facts
I'm serious...
...ly joking XD
Facts. I’ve been saying the same thing for decades now.
How did I not find out that Larry streams tourneys until now
This was an amazing video ty larry lurr
2:04 hikaru: I want you to drop yo top tiers for DK
you can definitely hit 100k Larry! you’ve got the most chill yt content of the whole ultimate community, it’d be a crime of you didn’t 🔥
The zoom in at 11:43 made me laugh to hard.
bloom was a good sport at the end, respect
I wonder who is sleeping in the room next to larry who he doesn't wanna wake up

good insight

We never stopped believing bro! Hopefully the haters will back off and finally see what DK is capable of!!
@@domthebandit9366 exactly! Its so nice to be proven right!
Glad Hikaru is back making waves overseas!
with DK's range, I call him a swordie
Why were you talking so quietly btw. ? XD
Think it was early where he lived during the time of the event, mightve had to be quieter
His girl was probably sleeping or something.
Nunya
At 9:37, could Leon have recovered had he directionally air dodged toward the stage?
ASMR with Larry
Larry talking in all lowercase
ASMR Larry can't hurt you
ASMR Larry: 3:01
the ad was really funny
Nobody tell Marss, or else Monkey Monday is going to get out of hand.
Monke Monday shall be FOREVER
Expanding to every day.
Hikaru is basically Smash Ultimate's ThundeRzReiGN
Love that glitch ad
100k subs by the ned of the year. You got this Larry
Some larry asmr
Nothing against Bloom, but it feels AWESOME to see a Bayo of all characters get tilted lol
Lets go Hikaru!
You should be a golf announcer
Legitemetly the most fun smash ultimate player. Hikaru is dope
Hikaru is such a vibe and I love it! 😂
SEEE SEEE nobody listened when I said DK was good. Ohhh ohhh he's combo food blah blah exploitable recovery.
.
Yeah.
HE ALSO ( BEHOLD THIS VIDEO)
I fight DK on a regular basis and I know for a fact that DK is actually really good. He's got 3 top reps placing well at majors (Hikaru, Chunkykong, and Acola on occasion), AND he is absolutely busted online.
I fought so many haters people kept saying “His disadvantage is trash he’s automatically bottom 5” but I explained to them about Hikaru but nobody listened glad Hikaru dominated here now people are jumping on the bandwagon 🤣
He also does well against Peach lol
Can we agree that DK is a sword character.
@@timhiltz6323 Uhuh uhuh
that fucking intro LOL
Leon missed alot of opportunities. But thats easy for me to say. I'm not holding the controller.
Larry ASMR
Brooo that intro xD
Can't wait to see MKLeo get double eliminated by monke
The audio is so silky
donkey kong bro
larry with the sexy asmr voice today in this video lol
Why does Larry talk like he's on ketamine for the rest of the video after 2:47?
who’s the middle schooler commentating the tournament? Sounds like superkai64’s younger sibling
Thought you was going for some asmr type voice 😂
love to see it
Is he trying to do a ASMR lol 🤣
Bruh DK hasn't changed at all since smash 4 character still be doing the same thing LMAO
Hey Larry. Instead of continuing losing with Falco against MkLeo, just stop holding back and go with your main: DK
Which player is top 5? The bayo? I never heard of top 5 pgr bayo. .
Larry asmr
Lmao “4pola” vs “4me”
This guy is lit af
Larry ASMR?
Marss should just play DK. Honestly it might just do better if he did. And just go ZSS for extremely hard matches like Game & Watch.
Cool video. Do you want to do some 1v1s
Mfw LarryLurr uploads
Hikaru is crazy good

If you ain't robbing stocks you ain't playing ultimate
You know the type of BDE you have to have to be down a game and down a stock and to give the peace sign mid-game.... jesus christ lo
DK. DONKEY KONG
w i d e b o y s
ASMR Larry
*I too like chrom more than roy, plus Roy's inconsistent spots ain't it*
*ALSO DK MY GOAT LET'S GO HIM AND CHUNKYKONG CAN WIN A MAJOR WITH DK I BELIEVE*
Better Palutena
I assume he just loses the next 2 sets then
He lost to Tea
I think now is the time for people to realize LOSING IS A CHOICE literally any character can succeed
Yeah, agreed, except for ganandorf, and mac

@@penny7551 Dude his name ganondorf
I congratulate him for the victory, but 95% the time he did up throw to up air till it killed. Not very satisfying/hype.
I think Gluto being top 5 is questionable
Roy is lame and chrom is super cool R is right.
Nah. Both of them are lames. Coupla washed-up lames.
@@topemeister3000 agree to disagree🤝
@@plabcentral630 deal
nice ad, this comment is mostly for the algorithm
BETTER THAN FOX BTW
Hikawu
if the character has a confirm like ding dong your automatically solo viable lol
Mute the source video and do ASMR
Really quiet
First
Monke
Literally no one cares
Larry, the volume from the gameplay needs to be lowered on this video
