Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- From a humble college tournament to one of Canada's premier majors, Battle of BC 4 marked the end of the third PGR Smash Ultimate season. In a shocking twist, Top 8 featured zero USA or Mexican players, a first for a North American major in Ultimate's history. Today, we dive into the explosive action BoBC4 had to offer, and what's on the horizon for the Summer of Smash.

What a coincidence that SephirothKen was the best Melee player from 2003-2007, and now in 2022 a Sephiroth named Ken just won a major. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Fun fact: Melee Ken’s name on Smashboards was “SephirothKen.” Ult Ken won BOBC4 with Sephiroth.
i just realized that 😂
Woah thats deep bro
for overseas: in KEN's livestreaming after this tournament, he mentioned that tactical sd. at that time, he was 78.8% so he tried to got loupe damage and got wing. he missed, though
Big brains there even if it didn't work out.
Do you know, if Sephiroth has already used his jump and then he gets wing in midair, does he get another jump?
@@alexpotts6520 he does get the second doublejump
@@alexpotts6520 he does get his 3rd jump
@@drcreed6320 So wouldn’t that just be a triple jump then?
@@ShawFujikawa same thing
I still think that the trampoline combo Glutonny did on Tea was one of the greatest combos of all time
we all do
Not even one of, probably the greatest. We will never see a on-the-fly character specific (opponent) combo like that again.
Hi lurosss my friend
@@Neonaccelerator Hi Mike
Hi I haven't watched any of bob4, Including this moment is there any other good highlights to know of?
This was in my sub box I was hearing it while cooking then I hear my name and said WHAAAAAAT
Go to more majors
@@slukass9631 now that im not sick anymore and were no longer quarantined, i will be traveling way more! see u at Goml, smashcon, shine and more!
@@supergirlkels Yeah, I can’t imagine living in Canada. Can’t even defend your loved ones if you get robbed. Criminals have more rights 😂 Hopefully you can attend more international majors
Watching ouch reverse 3-0 riddles into teas kazuya was fucking insanity.
It was crazy live i can only imagine how it feels in person
"Ken played masterfully" is sending my FGC brain rn
I’m glad to see kells and wizzy still playing the game, I forgot about them but they are classics.
I just wanna say that I really really appreciate these videos. I never watch these tourneys live and I'm not on Twitter so these recaps are really nice.
this is ken's first major win since umebura S.A.T in 2016.
very interested to see the new PGR. some players have fallen off like crazy while others have really broken out.
I wanna see where they put jmook
@@coleycow_ melee pgr doesn’t end until double down
What happened to the interviews with the tournament champions?
They only released the one from Genesis 8 and from there it seems to me that there has been no more, it has been a long time since there have been multiple champions in different tournaments: Spargo, Light, Glutonny, Ken, etc and we have missed out on great interviews.
It's excellent content, and I hope they don't abandon it.
Interviews will be returning soon… 😉
I know BASSMAGE really wants to scale the summit, but the fact that he's doing this well with Jiggly is an accomplishment in and of itself.
Ouch!? played so well! Really want to see him travel to other regions and verse more top players.
I've been so happy as a KEN fan ngl, both his sonic and sephiroth are so good.
Although the one thing that I kinda was sad about was the fact that KEN battled japanese players only in top 8 (Shuton, Tea, Tea again). Still happy for this win though, big stuff.
SPOILERS:
Congrats to Ouch?! and Tea.
Ouch?! May have gotten laughed at but he really proved himself in this tournament
The spoiler tag does nothing lmao
@@KelpyG. also this entire video is a spoiler so this comment doesn’t spoil anything
@@unsaltedmixednuts8036 still in general when people do spoiler tags it does nothing
@@KelpyG. some people will press enter a bunch of times so it makes you press read more, but yea this does nothing lol
i don't think Tea trolling with Kazuya in one game of a set at Hermes should count as a major win for Kazuya
He was 100% trolling, he spent half the match spamming moves
@@Daniel-uy1sv you did not understand what Jazaedly said
Ouch?! had an absolutely crazy run, and perhaps the most impressive offline losers run this year, but maister’s 19 set win from losers at a 1000+ person tournament was FOR SURE the most impressive losers run overall, even if it was online
That hydrant death by KEN may be the jankiest thing ever to occur in Ultimate
Proud of the Canadian scene. I was at GOML 19, I can’t believe it’s been that long.
PG stats is becoming my favorite channel nowadays lmao
great video as always
When I saw the title of this video, I was terrified that they were going to try to say that this Ken and the original SephirothKen were the same guy lmfao
A Sephiroth finally won a major, beating big-name players in the process. It's a different player from who we usually see in Ult, but it's an experienced one from the past. Pretty cool. I hope newer players using different characters become top, tho.
Let's go Japan popping off with the 4 top 8 finishes!
Really excited to see the PGRU rankings for this season though, especially with the recent surge of new players making outstanding performances
Please do a video on the Texas Reverie that happened last weekend! Was a sick invitational, perfect time to highlight our region!
BOBC4 was super hype despite the whack as hell ruleset. Probably my second favorite top 8 this year behind Ult Summit 4.
Also, I really hope BOBC4 dispelled the myth that FD is the most neutral stage in the game. It doesn’t even make sense considering hazardless PS2 is legal for Ult
If Blanc, Tilde, or Larry Lurr replaced Shuton in Top 8 it would’ve been even better imo(cool to see spacies, particularly Larry). I like Shuton’s Olimar, but Pyra/Mythra is just cringe
@@pancakesbf2704 You want MORE spacies? Your just wishing for smash con fall fest to happen again aren’t you
@@SomeoneWeird-vx5jx I said I like spacies, not that I want more of them. I was mostly talking about Falco, which isnt that used of a character anyways. My point was I like Larry Lurr, and that Top 8 would’ve been better in my eyes if it didn’t have a Pyra/Mythra player
@@pancakesbf2704 I know but i just think it’s kinda weird that to you what makes a good top eight is having your favorite characters present and having your least favorite characters not present. To me, I don’t really care what characters are there, I’m just here for the gameplay and Twitter memes.
@@SomeoneWeird-vx5jx Mostly I care about people rather than character to wash in pros(e.g I like MKLeo and Kola), but cringe characters I dont like watching.
I'm hoping T can come back to the major scene. Mans has been busy since he graduated and entered the workforce.
the ouch segment where light was laughing fkning sent me lmao
love to hear super girl kels doing better!!!
5:46 when was this? No disrespect but light laughing has to be hilarious
That hug denial from Ouch is iconic lol
Seph been doing better than he ever has before recently Tweek at Momocon Ned at Combo Breaker and Ken at the Japan major held in Canada for some reason 😏 (Fr tho great stuff to players like Ken,Tea from Japan Players like Ouch and Riddles in Canada and Gluto and Sisqui from France and more)
Edit: Meant to say EU not France b/c Sisqui doesn’t apply under the banner of players from France. My bad.
Sisqui isn't french
sisqui is Spanish but yeah it was really awesome to see
Super fun tourney . Good stuff. Ty for the coverage!
That intro is so cool!
Was wondering when Pg stats would talk about how a chad sephiroth won a major 💪😤
GIGACHAD
While it is pretty much impossible to rank all players together, having all regions ranked separately kinda removes the hype from the pgru imo
Do you not remember the absolute criticism from the pgru back in 2019 fall? That literally makes rankings way easier
@@voodooedits785 I do indeed remember it, and I do recognise that the same thing would most likely happen, but I just can't make myself feel excited for the ranking when it's not a global one
4:13 THAT MOVEMENT
you forgot to mention that Kodra a link player had links best NA performance in years
LMAO Justice is not Canadian. He's from Washington, a neighboring US state
Edit: Everest is also from Oregon not Canada
6:17 Im pretty sure you are talking about H4DS and I think his tag is pronounced H-four-dee-es
Dang that was fast
Ice cold take; but I think Riddles would've made AT LEAST 2nd if he didn't misinput that power geyser in game 3
Okay I know it’s annoying, but you properly say it as H 4 D S and not Hads at 6:28. Okay back to watching epic content
5:46 where do i find this clip 😂😂😂😂
You got this cosmos
13:00 ... i think you forgot a stock....
It's wild that ESAM wants to play miibrawler even though Pikachu is apparently BUSTED GODLIKE BROKEN. Just want to see those Pika dubs 😭
Someone know what's the music in BG at 3:00 ?
Can anyone send me the link for the orionrank eclipse thing seen in the video with the player cards
Ouch!? The GOAT
ouch is vancouver boy played against his wolf on online
Can someone tells me the source? 5:45
Is Atelier called 'Atoria' or was that just a mispronunciation?
LAND OF THE FREE
I love how ouch?! defeated the most technical Kazuya player in the world and then lost to Tea who's known for spamming the crap out of Kazuya's tools without regard.
If that's not peak comedy, I don't know what it is.
It's a different Ken right?
Wait as in Ken the guy who was the first best melee players
Yes my goat
Basemage is based.
Damn you know it’s bad when it’s a Canadian major and only a single person from your province wins a single set in top 64 out of the 10 who went.
Why was Aaron DQed?
Huh Team Liquid Riddles is forming a 4th place curse... Where have I seen that before?...
Let's go L4st!
good vid!!
5:50 why was light laughing?
Because Ouch had nothing in his graph
He was highlighting the events players attend when competing for the PGR, comparing it to the Orion ranks where people don't take all their events with ranking in mind, and as he was scrolling down he ran into Ouch who has 0 events (majors) attended on his resume.
Nairo is crying tears of joy as we speak
Ken moment
USA: "american player"
Canada, Mexico and all south american countries: Are we a joke to you ?
And ESAM and Cosmos inability to to win majors and super majors despite using 2 top tier characters, pikachu arguably being the best
11:47 been so long since someone said thunder jolt, I must admit I was confused as to what it was for a second, and the it hit me ohh he means T-jolt xD
justice my fucking goat
Proof canada is the most hype country
Lets go Kels
Have I been pronouncing "atelier" wrong? Are you all positive about this?
Expansive Leff
I mean yeah, Riddles underperformed, but he had to unexpectedly face Glutonny in Losers, so it evens out.
Love it
Yup fighters pass 2 is hella brokem
Lets go SupergirlKels I used to love her in Smash 4.
Artoria when it’s clearly Atelier bro can you pronounce a word any worse. @0:37. Atelier is a French word to boot
Aye
wow, every character from the fighters pass 2 has won a major now, I guess they got their money's worth
Kazuya doesn’t really count, I think Tea only used him for a single game at Temple Hermes edition
@@ONLY_RR7 oh true
@@frijolespepepapa9464 I don't think Pyra and Mythra have won a Major
@@SamuelJohnsonYT during swt leo used pyra mythra a bit
@@mmmmbread1452 cool
Big D is always so fun to watch.
And MVD will never be the snake player that ALLY was and is.
Every fighters pass 2 character has now won a major. That proves those characters are busted asf.
What major kazuya won?
I don't think Pyra and Mythra and Kazuya have won a Major
@@SamuelJohnsonYT cosmos won glitch infinite with aegis
@@voodooedits785 not sure that counts as a Major
@@SamuelJohnsonYT that was a major with 616 entrants but it doesn’t count for pgr
Light laughing at Ouch ranking because he thought it was too high, Light I hope you lose to this kid over and over, that was just disrespectful.
🤓
Bro what, he was laughing at the people who made the list not Ouch himself
I mean, is it not extremely funny to see a player with an *empty* results chart ranked in the top 50? Unrelated to his opinion or lack thereof of Ouch, that’s just silly. And there’s no way he underestimates Ouch anymore, not after this weekend.
@@ONLY_RR7 What the f**k is even that sentence? So...you agree? He laughed at "people" who made the list.
He included that clip for a reason, watch the Light stream.
@@KevSB07 @KevSB07 His result chart wasn't empty are you kidding me? He has many wins in Canada, he's been considered 2nd best in Canada for a while. Empty, lol. Riddles has also said that Ouch is 2nd best in Canada no contest.
Tell me why 2nd best in Canada would be impossible to place 50th? That's not even far-fetched. SSBU isn't that big competitively, Elite Smashers, yeah tons but it has a pretty small offline scene., you probably recognize most people who are decent yourself.
I hope sakurai decides to remove sonic for smash 5, or at the very least make him a normal character
I’m so confused on how to feel with Ken . On one hand, its cool to see his Sephiroth. On the other hand, Sonic is super cringe
I love KEN's Seph, and yeah, Sonic is cringe but I'm not too upset about KEN's Sonic because at least from the games I watch of him, his Sonic doesn't play very campy compared to certain sets with Sonix. I enjoy watching aggressive Sonic gameplay.
Honestly his sonic has earned its permanent respect for me after that game one finish vs zomba at swt
@@zannax351 double spring was hype + Sonic is way past cool
Cool to see people outperforming, except for Sonic players 🤮
What a coincidence that SephirothKen was the best Melee player from 2003-2007, and now in 2022 a Sephiroth named Ken just won a major. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
