So happy to see Kola back. Insane gameplay. Also, couple reasons I think Sparg0 went Aegis here: 1. To warm up for Sonix (most likely reason) 2. According to Light in an episode of Light’s Out, Sparg0 was getting bodied by Kola in friendlies at SSC. I’m wondering if he was playing Cloud there, so he decided to switch things up for this match.
@@CipherKnightoYeah that's number 2 lmao, can't win with Cloud pick Aegis. Also quite funny how he picked Roy against Sonic, he for sure took that from Kola
Oh yeah I love playing Byleth players mashing nair and ridiculous smash attacks, it offer a lot to the meta, this type of cheap cheese, good thing it actually works 😂🎉
Probably his lack of safe pressure (relative to the best characters like Sonic and GnW). His slow air drift means jumping in is a commitment and approaching aerials are very telegraphed. Everyone is better at parrying, Roy is very parry-able. Also he’s not as safe on shield as his frame data suggests because his approaching tools like nair and fair are also his combo tools which means they are always kind of stale OP is capping tho Roy is still top 15 easy maybe top 10.
@@pothos489 he lacks safe presure? He had one of the best approaching tools in the game with down tilt. I do agree Roy has to commit more when he jumps in cause he lacks air accel. Yeah the parry system is something that Roy struggles with, but can't that be said for every character? If you space roys fair most characters can't even punish it on pary. He also has the mix up to land with side B. I feel like roy may not be as safe as his frame data suggests but still more than safe enough. Even if every move in roys kit is max staled fair will never be more than - 8, Nair will never be more than - 9, up air - 9 and Bair - 10. And that's the worst case scenario assuming everything is Max staled. If you space those moves it's extremely difficult to punish, like I said fair is hard to punish even on parry. That's why I think it doesn't matter that toys aerials are telegraphed, he doesn't have to approach from the air cause his ground game is really solid with dtilt and jab.
Kola is what Ultimate needed. Glad to see him back after a long break
That sheik using up tilt for the jab lock was clean
WebbJP is cracked as of late. Can’t wait for WTT
He needs to stop Jabbing tho
@@alfredpeverly2093why, jab is a good move for sheik
@alfredpeverly2093 it true combos into down tilt at higher percents and the good hit of down tilt too
Literally just heard Leo say he thought Lola had the biggest drop off, guess kolas ears were burning.
Well, Leo said that because Kola wasn't playing so at least it's fair
damn, leo of all people

great insight nice
Damn that’s interesting actually. Also I think Roy can struggle with Aegis a bit so that’s another thing possibly added to the list

@@raven-a I think Roy beats Sonic. That was a common belief around 2020. Or is at least an even matchup. He’s good pick for him.
Kola, Shadic, and WebbJP were the highlights of this tournament
Dude the SPACING on that nair into bair was crazy. Shadic was a beast at this tourney!
Kola is honestly the most fun to watch. Why does he do what he do ?!
Rushdown Roy, we need more.
Kola was the highlight
Along with shadic and webbjp
i stg smash players have the edgiest tags "cry for me"... like really, youre a white kid in a hoodie who plays rob, not some anime protagonist
Meanwhile, Kola’s tag is “wtf” 😅😅
Smashers and cringe go together like salt and pepper.
I think it's just a reference to the kpop song. Zomba is a TWICE fan
@@TheCrimson_PhoenixMy reaction to most of those tags 😂🎉
I hate fighting roy players online, but god damn it i will get hype for kola
Kola a bit rusty, but still had a strong run
We are so back actually
The wii balance DI 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He changed his name back?! Thank god
Shadic went crazy.
Love Kola man, my favourite player
awesome sauce
the dokkan music in the beginning was awesome
Happy Halloween 🎃 Marss!

Amoongus is inevitable
can you do a watch of Kurama vs Quidd
Yay shadic
It’s cold

I was there
This is a video
I said the same thing on the video vod of spargo vs kola that spargo played bad and all the spargo deep throaters came out to REEEE
roy really is not as good as people think he is.
He's still better than most of the cast - you just need to know what you're doing.
What are his weaknesses aside from his recovery (which btw is far from being the worst in the game)?
Probably his lack of safe pressure (relative to the best characters like Sonic and GnW). His slow air drift means jumping in is a commitment and approaching aerials are very telegraphed. Everyone is better at parrying, Roy is very parry-able.
