Remember when Pac Man's grabs were laughable? Because is now a good move, used a lot by Tea; that new grab improves the 'Pac Man players have a galactic brain' profile a lot.
Jesus christ, that was the best damn Pacman Ive ever seen. Good work on that Great Bowser too, by comparison it might have looked one sided but the patience and precision this Bowser showed off was quite impressive. Sometimes, not pressing a button is the hardest skill to use lol.
Props to LeoN for winning, but it has to be said: Tea popped off with his tricks. He just came in like "Alright Pacmains, it's time for a new lesson on 'How to Pacman: Advanced Galaxian Brain Tricks, part 4'"
This has got to be one of the most interesting match I have ever seen. I was so torn between which one I wanted to win. I hope Tea wins a major tournament soon.
@@JonahDeroy I mean I can see why it wouldn't be bowser's win, it's a bit of a gimmick- at least now bowser doesn't need to cheese his opponents to win games lol
@@JonahDeroy Tea is godly- I can never comprehend what he will do and when he will do it besides when he pulls out galaga but even then he pulls surprises lol
Amazing things about this match from a casual observer: Bowser vs _Pac Man_ at a Grand Finals (I'm a guy for who the fox v fox final destination video was one of the first things he ever watched on UA-cam) _and_ it goes to game 9 Bowser: On point Pac Man: On point Commentary: Informative with a good sense of humor/genuine excitement (so on point imo) Sai's Tie: On _fucking_ point Tea goes for the fist-bump but Leon says "nah dawg, we huggin it out". What a fucking wholesome, feel-good way to end an incredibly hype match, America and Japan coming together, honorable smash warriors trading blows, pretty much equal on the field of battle, just positive vibes all around.
These commentators are always soooo impressed by DI... the players are doing these hyper technical setups and making crazy reads, yet their minds are blown when players hold the analog stick away from the blast zone.
It's mostly the hype of not dying and still staying consistent while you've gotten hit off stage etc I think. I get it can be annoying because theu don't always give the right amount of credit for the right amount of work but they're just kinda there to speak out the match and make jokes if anything. Their reactions are their own and it's okay if they dont realize the skill all the time because the comment section always does. For me I'm annoyed that players that play Joker are praised when Joker is just another buffed DLC character that doesn't require as much skill.
@@bireon878 "joker is a buffed dlcs character that requires no skill" There is only 1 joker main in the any of top 20 players. I'd even say top 30. Joker only wins tourneys consistently when Leo plays him. How is he buffed when he hardly has results? Clearly it takes skill to play him well or there would be more results. You're wrong if you think joker is anything like bayo or even any of the smash 4 dlcs characters.
Bowser actually does very well against zoners because of his amazing mobility, fair, and dashboost ftilt allowing him to get past projectiles and close the distance
Tea is by FAR better than sinji. Sinji is garbage compared to Tea. He messes up all the time, and can't come close to beating the top players of the world unlike tea casually beating Tweek, Zackray, etc.
I honestly think Bowser's F-air might be the best in the game. It doesn't have any special effects, it doesn't spike, but it has incredible coverage, it's fast, and it hits really hard. It's just a great all-around move.
With absolute respect to Tea who is a beast and was great to watch, it feels like every time I watch anyone play Pac-man people always think their plays are big brained. I think Pac-man just has an unorthodox moveset and projectile game that seems weird to us simpletons. Not saying I could do it. Just saying, people shouldn't lose their minds every time a pac-man does a bell combo. That's sort of how you have to play the character.
@@garyjones2561 Bowser is super heavy and combo food: he's designed to take high damage before dying, but he's also easy to deal damage to. It's pretty well balanced.
I thought bowser was supposed to be bad against projectiles, but his command grab is just go good in these matchups. A lot of times you want to jump over stuff and they just shield and reset so its still just neutral; but with side b if bowser is approaching from the air hes actually in advantage
Probably because shes legally a separate character, so it would've been too much of hassle to go through the process of getting the rights to use her from Namco, just for her to be a skin.
If you notice, Everytime Tea gets off the stage after taking a stock, he takes massive damage from the flame and Fair. I believe Tea lost because he kept going off the stage, and you don't wanna do that because Leon has amazing edgeguards. Otherwise, Tea would've won.
I swear to god I always see Leon lose a match, this was a pleasant surprise. I feel kind of bad every time I watch a video of "X pro vs Fatality/Leon" because 90% of the time, it's the other guy who wins. This was a breath of fresh air, seeing a heavyweight win a grand final.
Amazing set leon and tea both mental players doing there absolute best tea working his ass off setting up these massive combos and leon playing the hardest bullet hell game of all time. No one here was a loser let's be real bravo to both of them.
One of the commentators kept mentioning a "Galaga". I didn't see no Galaga. I saw a Galaxian ship. If that's what he was referring to, he shouldn't be allowed to commentate for 9 months to think about what he did.
I'd like to see LeoN use more tilts in his neutral. He really seems to lean a little too heavily on his aerial game. Granted, Bowser has a lot of good aerial options, but he's happiest on the ground.
ahhhhg! this set was amazing to watch. I can't help but think that tea shouldn't have taken bowser to pkmn stadium game 9. leon should have employed some more fire breath use when tea was at ledge instead of waiting for ledge traps and letting tea back on stage
I can’t even imagine what kind of combos Tea must be labbing on the daily
He be doing the Wake Eat Work Smash Sleep and repeat!
He labs via physics worksheets
Remember when Pac Man's grabs were laughable? Because is now a good move, used a lot by Tea; that new grab improves the 'Pac Man players have a galactic brain' profile a lot.
2:19 commentator and bowser in sync lmao
He was controlling him for a little bit lol
Okay but that’s sick
That’s amazing 😂😂
Jesus christ, that was the best damn Pacman Ive ever seen.
Good work on that Great Bowser too, by comparison it might have looked one sided but the patience and precision this Bowser showed off was quite impressive. Sometimes, not pressing a button is the hardest skill to use lol.
Bang on man. Pac-Man getting all the love but Leon’s decisions is a more impressive feat IMO
@@scottyjonas7592 good thing you included the IMO
TAuNt Moon haha what is your opinion on it?
@@scottyjonas7592 i personally think tea's play style is more impressive lol no hate
Leon relies on grabs and up b’s way to much. Where as tea puts amazing combos together.
My two favorite players in grands, what a time to be alive
I had the same reaction
I love watching these two
Lol tgats great
Lmao Doja Cat
even though Tea lost. You can't lie his IQ is 5000
Daniel Dancer it’s over 9000
Daniel Dancer I swear to Christ his hair is so curly because it’s actually just extensions of his brain
Air Bear to be fair, LeoN played fenomenally
Love him or hate him, he's spitting straight facts
Of course, but Leon IQ has to be 5001 because he was able to find the way and beat this pacman genius.
Props to LeoN for winning, but it has to be said: Tea popped off with his tricks. He just came in like "Alright Pacmains, it's time for a new lesson on 'How to Pacman: Advanced Galaxian Brain Tricks, part 4'"
Tea may be mega brained, but Leon is on the same level for counterplaying such a godly Pac-Man
Mossagon ' they’re both top tier lvl players but I fed think pac man needs a buff

This has got to be one of the most interesting match I have ever seen. I was so torn between which one I wanted to win. I hope Tea wins a major tournament soon.
WELP
He did!
Both of these players are so fun to watch
Tea is for sure one of the funnest players to watch
most fun.
I lost my shit at tea's use Of bowsercide lol good stuff.
In some rulesets, that counts as Bowser's win! Not this one, apparently.
@@JonahDeroy no it wouldn't, pacman broke free at the last second but bowser still dies in this scenario if they both died it'd be different
@@JonahDeroy I mean I can see why it wouldn't be bowser's win, it's a bit of a gimmick- at least now bowser doesn't need to cheese his opponents to win games lol
@@omegafreddy12 True true, bro. People in general are better at mashing out than they used to, but Japan has always been the best by far... Like Tea.
@@JonahDeroy Tea is godly- I can never comprehend what he will do and when he will do it besides when he pulls out galaga but even then he pulls surprises lol
I swear with Pac-man you either dominate in ways no one understands or lose outright. Youre in his world when you play him. And Tea knows it
Pac-Man has a great comeback game as well though xD
Leon is a certified beast. Bowser mains rise up
ayyyyyy Bowser best character no doubt
this is surely at the pinnacle that these characters can be played at as of now~
LeoN *IS* Bowser!
Tea *IS* Pacman!
Amazing set. Glad to see Ultimate having so much variety in its meta.
My boi LeoN vs My boi Tea... I'm torn
this man stays winning bowsers worst matchups lol
bowser doesn't lose more than 4-5 matchups though, 3 hits you die while living to 200 way past being comboable
This mu is arguably even tho, at worst it's only like -0.5 for Bowser. There are several mus that are worse for Bowser than Pac.
Except samsora's peach
Pyro Bowser Shulk and Joker look like really bad matchups for Bowser
It’s even, fam. I main Pac and have a Bows roommate. We switch off wins consistently!
Incredible match. I'm so impressed by Leon's punish game and item play.
Tea is genius. Love his pac play
This was an amazing match! Both of these players played like absolute gods.
Amazing things about this match from a casual observer:
Bowser vs _Pac Man_ at a Grand Finals (I'm a guy for who the fox v fox final destination video was one of the first things he ever watched on UA-cam) _and_ it goes to game 9
Bowser: On point
Pac Man: On point
Commentary: Informative with a good sense of humor/genuine excitement (so on point imo)
Sai's Tie: On _fucking_ point
Tea goes for the fist-bump but Leon says "nah dawg, we huggin it out". What a fucking wholesome, feel-good way to end an incredibly hype match, America and Japan coming together, honorable smash warriors trading blows, pretty much equal on the field of battle, just positive vibes all around.
As a Bowser main this does bring a smile to my face
Best Heavy
@@gokudbz7842
*_Uh, the best heavy is Heavy, thanks-_*
Same
Leon lost?
Tea lookin like Pacman and Leon lookin like Bowser lmao
I never noticed 😂😂😂
Leon did say Bowser’s his spirit animal
they really fit their characters haha
@@supernintendofan5311 I think Leon is Bowser's spirit animal
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA damn
3:23 big brain plays
Only real Bowser mains know how much practice that takes
00:17 The discreet things are the best... Leon picked "Giga Bowser" as the music. My guy.😅
this was such a good set. it's never boring watching tea and leon
22:54 that up air to get back to ledge was nice
that's so nice of leon to give tea a hug! I love it.

Bireon nigga you dumb as fuck
Can you guys upload the LeoN interview?
Holy crap this was fun to watch
It gives me anxiety how good Tea is. How is anyone that smart😭😭
Browser's really good at punishing impatient players. For zoners, he's gonna struggle. Especially the faster ones.
Bowser actually does very well against zoners because of his amazing mobility, fair, and dashboost ftilt allowing him to get past projectiles and close the distance
Leon now has 7 pgr wins
His power only grows.
@LooneyPlootzy And this is why I rarely comment on UA-cam.
@@pyrobowser158 I see a fellow bowser main has come to see their hero triumph...
@LooneyPlootzy oniichan yametee
Leon is a contender for top 20 I'm not even surprised anymore, he's just that skilled
9:33 That guy really hit the woah.
This is one of the greatest Ultimate sets ever.
BOWSER NATION RISE UP
14:59 that’s a lot of damage
Leon is so well to use items.
I like him.
5:31 How you like them apples?!
21:55 can we talk about that for a second?
watching this dude is the reason ill probably never drop Bowser
2:34 "nah."
19:50 was fucking sick making that decision out of a whiffed forward smash. Bro I love seeing big brained pac man mains
I don't know who is the best PacMan but Tea is so much more fun to watch to the camping of Sinji
Tea is by FAR better than sinji. Sinji is garbage compared to Tea. He messes up all the time, and can't come close to beating the top players of the world unlike tea casually beating Tweek, Zackray, etc.
@alan batres agreed!
Tea is arguably the best Pac man. His results and playstyle says more than enough
this set was straight up art
I am a pac main. Can confirm the pac gang.
X2
I honestly think Bowser's F-air might be the best in the game. It doesn't have any special effects, it doesn't spike, but it has incredible coverage, it's fast, and it hits really hard. It's just a great all-around move.
RtDK it’s up there, not the best tho
3:27 lmao tea forces the bowsercide
leon shouldve won that one
No
I wish I was pro. I'm such a pleb.
Same fam... Same...
“These confirms on fleek tho” why just why
They so tryhard it's cringe lol
slang bad amirite??
Leon was playing outta his mind. Master level side b use

Guess who loses the next stock? I've said it about Bowser before and I'll say it again:
he attac
he protec
but most importantly
he THICC as hec

David Kennedy he is bad against projectiles, Leon is just on a next level in terms of bowser
Why is Ms. Pacman not an echo fighter of Pacman? Or at least an alt costume as with the Robins.
nobody actually cares
Probably because shes legally a separate character, so it would've been too much of hassle to go through the process of getting the rights to use her from Namco, just for her to be a skin.

Where?? Hahaha
timestamp?
5:26 my mans Leon really just gave Tea the apple bottom jeans.
This is pure gold.. Leon winning.. bracket reset.. this is perfection
"those legs are thick with three C's" lol
LeoN carries the hope of all Bowser (and heavyweights for that matter) mains!
That very first stock where Tea took away his trampoline so Leon couldn't use it was DIRTY.
I want to see Leon vs fatality!!!!
I dunno, that might not be too pretty. Bowser is one of Falcon's better matchups, as he's about the easiest fighter in the cast to hit a knee on
I swear to god I always see Leon lose a match, this was a pleasant surprise. I feel kind of bad every time I watch a video of "X pro vs Fatality/Leon" because 90% of the time, it's the other guy who wins. This was a breath of fresh air, seeing a heavyweight win a grand final.
Tea could kill with back throw and the commentators would make it seem like it was a big brain play lmaaaaoooooooooooohestillthegoatthoooooo
Deylon Horton would they though?
My top two favorite players battling it out! I love smash!!!!
Every time I skip 10 sec ahead bowser gets 60-90% more dmg
Ima pick up Pac dude
Another title for the competition could be “Which yellow cartoon gaming character smells pissier”! XD
Amazing set leon and tea both mental players doing there absolute best tea working his ass off setting up these massive combos and leon playing the hardest bullet hell game of all time. No one here was a loser let's be real bravo to both of them.
Two of the coolest fuckin' players.
Tea is making us Pac-Man players proud of ourselves.
You should change PSP Leon in the title to the correct SPS Leon
Hey, I know you... 🤔
Leon, sponsored by Play Station Portable
daaaaaaaaamn, two of my faves
sooooooo close tea, so close
Wow... I didn't know they were sitting right next to each other until Tea leaned across the center of the screen, halfway through the video.

why does it look like this tournament was held in a prison
Sam Gresores LOL
5:40 doesn’t the key usually send the hydrant and keep going? Is it supposed to bounce back like that?
It's because the water sent the key back just before it hit the hydrant
