I'm really enjoying MKLeo's newfound role as a counterpicker. He was always a fundies player rather than a character specialist, so it makes sense for him to keep a character pool of about half a dozen and then choose according to matchup or just comfort.
Very fitting that on the eve of Mexican Independence Day, Leo freed himself from his P tier Top 8 curse (he hasn't placed top 8 since Genesis 9). Not only that, but his practiced Meta Knight actually paid off and got him a win against the best player of his most abhorred character. Good shit GOAT!
@@Bribickhed6 please, I beg you to do your research if you're going to make such a pompous remark. Like octavio said, Collision was an S+. Here, I'll list off all the P tiers we've had since Genesis 9: Kagaribi 10, Bobc5, SSC 2023, Kagaribi 11, Port Priority 8, Umebura SP10, Genesis X, Kowloon with Sumabato, Delta #8, Kagaribi 12, Supernova 2024, Riptide, and now this
I know this is a terrible matchup for Min Min, but Leo winning this is still crazy. Doramigi is the best Min Min and it's not even close. Meanwhile, Leo hasn't used this character seriously in quite some time. GOAT things
From what I saw on the stream, VGBC only commentated game 5 (This was around the same time as the Shuton and Doramigi set for Top 12) - If you go to East Geek Smash, Leo and Akio's match is at 4:07:03
I was rooting for Doramigi (us min mins gotta stick together), but props to Leo for improving big time in this matchup, as it’s historically been one of his worst. Hope they can run into each other again, maybe at cirque?
Leo may not be going anymore. After they announced the invitees for cirque, Leo was announced for a B tier Salvadorian tournament that's happening that same weekend. Maybe he changed his mind last minute like he did with UFA going to Umebura instead
@Spyder-Marth ledgetrapping is exactly why you don't see much edgeguarding in Ultimate: top players just be politely waiting for their opponent to recover. But the thing about ledgetrapping is that it only kills at high percent; a successful edgeguard kills at ANY percent. Most of my kills as Lucas come from fucking up people's recoveries. Keep your gimp hand strong, people.
@@Scorpio3002Edgeguarding can be risky, depending on your character + the character you’re playing against. You don’t want to get reversaled and die early yourself
@mercurysnake274 true, some characters are better at it than others: Pika, Lucas and MK are the ones that stand out off the top of my head. But edgeguarding is starting to feel like a lost art, forsaken by a community of cowards.

The game doesn't work like that you need to put time in your main
@@aymenjbailinah, still depends how solo viable your main is. Although, Joker seems to fit the bill as long as it doesn’t take to long to kill
@@aymenjbaili Maybe you don't work like that, but the game does. Ult is designed so that every character is viable.

That’s not even remotely true at all lol. Genesis 9 is certainly not Leo’s last p tier top 8. He got top 8 at collision this past march.

He’s been using a lot of meta knight this Japan trip including beating Rimu’s min min. This mk is quite practiced for this set
@@TheLogBerry Leo has not beat Rimu's Min Min. Rimu went Steve and took set 1 so Leo had to beat Rimu's Min Min with Joker.
Leo's meta knight is legit so fucking hype
Sick moves on that mk, specially on last set
スマブラで一番長い腕と世界一短い剣 熱すぎるね✨
そして一番短い勝負。最初からレオの決まりだ🎉
VGBC should upload Leo vs Akio (Shulk), it's top 12, because you also uploaded Tea vs Akio which is Top 16.

実際、メタナイトを出したのは正解でした。
So many Japanese players were disrespecting Leo, trying to clip him with elite smash reads. Glad he pulled through.
日本から見ても、彼は最高のプレイヤーの1人です

Been waiting for this one
I love seeing Ultimate players realize that they're allowed to edgeguard.
I know right? As a Marth main that's how I get a lot of my wins lol. Throw someone offstage, ledge trap, then spam Fair. Beats a lot of characters

害悪が処られるのさいっこうに気持ちえ😂😂
Did leo alone make better the neutral of meta knight? Or is it just me
He's the GOAT of Smash Ultimate for a reason. He can do that for (almost) any character
I used to hate on Leo for dlc characters, but dude he’s so good.
All this set tells me is that Tweek STILL needs a good counter to Steve, the Seph just won’t cut it 😔
You thinking about the right set....?
@@stevenhu4215yes
Well Leo needed too.

He should play cloud

Amazing
Glad minmin losing is nice
But nice how flexible Leo is to play so many characters at a high level
No min min problem anymore. Now to work on Steve and Mario.
It seems that the "M" and "K" in MKleo have meant Meta Knight.
