Smash 64 top 8 officially underway!
Stream @ showdownsmash
Smash 4 and Melee later tonight.
LET'S FUCKING DO THIS
smash 4
1st for 64 is best smash
>>324276549
no we're watching Smash 64
>>324276573
I agree.
>>324276573
Are you watching this? I'm falling asleep already
lol so much for 64 being better than Tr4sh
this is boring ass fuck. next time dont talk about a set you watched years ago fags
Smash 64 is shit
>people complain that 64 is just 0-to death
>it's actually some of the most insane neutral game ever
>chat realizes every game will be on dreamland
Holy shit how can people shit on Smash 4 so much when 64 is ten times worse. They spend the majority of the match just jumping around the stage at random.
>>324276662
You already posted this. Don't recycle comments, we're not on Reddit.
>literally no one in the crowd
Damn
The only thing good about 64 is Falcon
Is it only Dreamland for top 8 or is Hyrule also allowed?Isai's top 8 journey probably hinges on this rule
Wizzy a god
>>324276573
there was a part where the commentators gasped and went "OH MY GOD THAT WAS CLOSE"
both players are just bairing over and over on different parts of the map
ok
Is that the guy who jerks off to plants on commentary?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSnRnv8BCdw
>>324276728
watcha gonna do about it?
>>324276785
Hyrule has been phased out
>Timer
Wait, are they using 19XX but they won't use the other legal stages?
just wait for the isai donkeywonkey combowombos
Oh my fuck this is boring. 2 minutes before someone takes a stock, just jumping around doing absolutely fucking nothing. Defensive play at Dabuz levels. Why the fuck does people like 64?
Who actually uses the Twitch chat? It reminds me a lot of, well, here.
[USE HIS SUPERIOR AIR SPEED]
>>324276896
Too obvious probably. NoA won't notice a timer
>>324276896
Probably keeping it as subtle as possible so Ninty doesn't notice.
>>324276946
It's for people with attention spans, unlike yourself.
LOOK AT THAT CROWD
HYPE
>mfw you can literally see who is a shitter at games just by scanning the thread to see who's whining about Sm64sh neutral game
lel, welcome to how all other fighting games work, niggers. Footsies waiting for a hit confirm into your combos.
Enjoy being absolute plebs, you are the reason the FGC does not take Smashbabbys seriously.
>>324276946
But muh neutral game!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvHogLIrFgY
It was intentional
Pretty much all of Yoshis deaths are because he's been 'gimped'. How can someone play this character with such a liability attached?
>>324276949
It's much better.
64 FAGS ON SUICIDE WATCH
64 FAGS ON SUICIDE WATCH
64 FAGS ON SUICIDE WATCH
didn't know harry styles played smash
>>324276573
I actually agree. It's pretty campy but I I think it's the most interesting to watch.
The best kirby/ness main coming through.
>>324276721
hhehehe
>>324277120
except those are 99 seconds at most, and forces players to act. these are 8 minutes.
>>324276746
Yeah, you're full retard now.
So are there no counterpick stages or what? Jesus this is boring.
>>324277120
Other games dont have an 8 minute timer
>>324276728
umm wat? I see the same shit all over 4chan. Theres always those autists that shitpost the same garbage all the time
>these fucking kindergarten edge-guards
Holy fuck even Smash 4 has more depth than this.
When is it spected for top 8 Sm4sh to start?
Yo they're using separate TVs
That's awesome
>>324277120
Melee is part of FGC. Mike Ross said so
I forgot how cancerous the twitch chat is on finals day since Meleefags have nothing to watch until the end
>>324277185
Pretty sure he's talking about Melee. Melee top 8's recently haven't been all that great.
>tfw its gonna be a 3-2
wheres isai
>>324277239
Dreamland is the only legal stage in this game, the only thing I don't like about it.
This reminds me of the time hbox and armadas young link opened melee top 8 at evo.
>>324277253
http://www.genesisgaming.gg/streamschedule/
>>324277356
next, right? he's in losers as well
>>324277356
Next
>>324277120
>Smash 64
>combos
>>324277237
Even when I spelled it out you're too fucking stupid to understand the post. Christ, the other reply managed to understand. Don't take it out on me if you can't read
>>324277368
Why? Doesn't that just make it so whichever character is better on Dreamland will always win?
THE NAIR
>>324277126
Whyre people losing their shit over this? He was still one stock up.
IS it because of how risky it was?
>>324277246
Other games don't do five life bars in one round.
Fuck I am laffin at you dumb ass children.
Pike is so fucking overpowered. Wizzy is flatly outplaying him but losing to stupid jank.
>>324277421
64 is all combos. Don't be retarded
does anyone else lose all their hype when day 3 comes? For every tournament.
Day 2 is always the most exciting for me, watching people fight for a top 8 spot is super entertaining for me, but top 8 itself gets so fucking boring for some reason.
>>324277456
Dreamland is the most neutral
64 has the best hitsounds
>>324276537
>Except all the top players who would rather go back to brawl
Name them
>they couldn't even dash dance?
Dancetrotting is a perfectly viable movement option
Mango Hbox, Westballz and M2king have all praised the game. The only notable players who have complained as far as I'm aware of are Hax and Leffen
>>324277279
>Mike Ross said so
>japanese name
>is american
fucken weebs
>>324277548
totally. day 2 you really get to see the struggle and the new faces
day 3 its the same people losing and winning every time
>>324277550
Why aren't the 19XX stages allowed?
>>324277673
Ninty is sponsoring
>>324277673
Nintendo
>>324277673
nintendo sponsored g3
>>324277548
depends on the top 8. we've gotten some shitty top 8s in melee recently, but i thought MVG sandstorm top 8 was great, and then apex before that.
>>324277436
You really don't understand that what you spelled out is exactly what I was talking about eh?
Alright, there's no reasoning with you. Enjoy your nonfunctional retardation.
>>324277548
I'm usually hype all three days except for Day 1, as I'm not the biggest doubles fan.
But the Smash Crews were pretty fun for a day 1 event.
>>324277709
>>324277714
>>324277718
So then why are they using 19XX to begin with?
How is Pika's neutral b in this game?
>>324277456
Their are definitely characters that benefit from dreamland but it is neutral enough to not be overpowering for any one character. Dreamland in this game and melee are very different, this one is much smaller and doesn't have the insane ceiling of melee.
>>324277709
>>324277714
>>324277718
No they're not. They just partnered with them
It's not the same
>>324277814
time + stock
why the fuck is this shit 5 stock
>>324277814
Nobody at NoA will question a timer
>>324277384
Cheer m8, but what if you live in London?
>>324277934
OH FUCK YEAH ANOTHER zzz
that 5 seconds was actually kind of hype
I BLINKED
FUCK
W I Z Z Y
I
Z
Z
Y
pretty hype to be honest
HOLY FUCK WIIIZZZZY
BAM
POKED
WIZZROBE DID IT, THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN
>Pikachu's recovery
How can you give him that in the same game where Link actually goes nowhere
smash 64
more like
smash SHITTYFOUR
A little hype.
Wizzloli just throw some eggs nigga.
>>324277986
But I don't even know what timezone they are using
>>324278059
HE WON ONE GAME WHILE DOWN 2 OMG
>>324278023
yeah, just had to wait 7 minutes and 55 seconds to get to it
>>324277774
What's they're to reason with? You haven't even begun to try to read my post, let alone properly reply to it.
If you can't even get that far, don't bother posting.
>that actual crowd back there
kind of hype
>>324278023
>>324278043
>>324278073
>8 minute game of bairs
>hype
>People that bought priority seating not showing up making the venue look empty
>>324278105
the california tournament is using hawaii time
>showing off the modded stages on stream
WELP G3 IS OVER GET OUT NOW
>Wizzy
>8 minutes matches where the players are pretty much only feeling each other out
I'd rather watch Rosalina dittos in Tr4sh than this. I'm glad 64 is not on the main stage in most tournaments.
WAIT
Final Destination is in 64? I used to play this when I was like 5 over at a friends house but I have absolutely no memories of final destination. Why don't they just play on that?
Why is no one sitting in the first few rows? Is this like church?
>>324278237
FD is not in vanilla 64
>>324278237
19XXTE Mod
>>324278120
>don't bother posting
Not him but fuck that's a desperate and transparent betrayal of your autistic need to get the last word lol.
I bet you'd keep replying to him all fucking day just to try to get it.
You'll probably even reply to me because your autism will demand it kek
>>324277120
Shitters aren't patient enough for 64, I know 64 is slow but it involves insane skill.
>>324278250
thats "priority seating" that people paid for
>>324278197
prob only bought for melee
>2 mins of no % damage
>>324278208
Cheers mate.
usabortions and their stupid timezones
>>324278250
Its VIP seating. They know they dont need to fight for a seat so they'll just sleep in until Melee Top 8
>>324278342
>thats "priority seating" that people paid for
Why would they pay for something and then not show up?
>>324278237
It's an unoffical game mod. That's also why there's a timer on Stock battles which wasn't possible in the original game.
>>324278237
It's in 64 but it's not playable. They're using a modded version of 64 called 19XX that adds a timer and FD and probably some other stuff.
They won't play on it though because they don't want to make it obvious that they're using a modded version of the game even though I'm 100% sure Nintendo won't give a fuck about them using a version of 64 that just adds a timer and the use of FD.
>>324278434
60 bore is on
>>324276946
They don't even play 64. It gets praised by meleefags purely because its not brawl or s4. They'll post an isai combo vid to prove how hype it is even though that's likely the only footage of comp 64 that they've ever seen.
Turns out having zero defensive options makes the game really defensive.
>Has the patience to sit on the edge in 64
>doesn't have the patience to face an on ledge M2K
What the fuck Wizzy? You could've been in top 8 in Melee
Well, this is what happens when killing is too easy. Same kind of thing happened in Brawl.
>that shield break punish
This is fucking painful to watch. They can get in if they want to. They have the movement for it. No reason to be such massive pussies.
>>324278484
This, Wizzy would have beaten Nintendude easily too, his style is perfect for shitty characters like ICs and Falcon is good against IC anyway.
>>324278434
Like >>324278391 said, since they don't have to fight for a seat they'll just do whatever the fuck they want until the top 8 they care about comes on.
>>324278208
fuck thats way to late
Is everyone in this game like Jigglypuff from melee?
Throwing safe aerials and camping a side of the stage?
I don't remember 64 being like this, what's going on?
>>324277572
>
Ally and m2k are the only ones who have really been vocal about that.
Nakat made some "why I love brawl" video somewhat recently.
That's all I can think of really.
>>324278729
awful matchup + isai isn't playing
>>324278468
I swear Nintendo's only issue with the modded games was possible IP problems. I don't see why they don't just use the rest, even if Nintendo does notice.
Pikachu's "Pikaauh" is so adorable in this game.
>>324278729
Matchup
>>324278634
Tournaments will often run into the 7AM range in Britbongistan. If you don't live in Europe then you've got it good.
lol wizzy
>>324278729
You've been tricked by all the gifs
wizrekt loli
>WIZZYFAGS ON SUICIDE WATCH
wizzy wtf
They have to be using modded N64 analogs; which one is the most common?
>>324278807
I always thought of it as "PIK-OWW!"
>>324278484
m2k's special passive skill is that he makes people who never approach, approach him on the ledge
>50 minutes for one set
Jesus fucking christ
ISAI
darkhorse has a real fresh suit goddamn
That was fucking sad
ISAI FUCKING TACOS OH SHIT HERE WE GO NIGGAS
>>324278468
That may be one reason why they're not playing on it, but they're mainly not playing on it because not everyone in the SSB64 community has easy access to FD for practice, so it's not tournament legal/standard yet.
>>324278989
30, started late. but still, yeesh
>>324278841
I'm fucked.
I am actually from Spain, do you have another funny name for us spaniards?
Is Isai balding?
>>324278989
>Haha, good joke.
>The time is now 11:50
>Shit started at around 11.
Holy fuck, you werent kidding.
>>324278989
Reminds me of the hbox vs armada GF with armada's young link
slow paced but damn if that wasn't a good set.
THE LEGEND
>>324278729
It so happens when there's so little counterplay to 0 to deaths, no one wants to approach to get 0 to death'd
>all these documentary babbies complaining that Smash 64 isn't what they saw in those epic gifs
>instantly hyping when Isai comes on stage
Somebody link the combo they were just talking about, please
>>324278729
thats how 64 is played, hitstun is too high to commit to unsafe options
its basically footsies: the game but stages are too big to force active confrontation and projectiles are mostly shitty
ISAI MAKING FOX LOOK GOOD
>isai comes on
>the game is suddenly twice as engaging
Not even an Isai fanboy but thank god.
ISAI'S FOX
HE HAS A CHANCE
does smash 64 have di?
>>324279309
Only SDI
Is Isai just fucking around?
He could have killed him on the landing with an upsmash
this set is WAY fucking better than the last one
Kek smash 4 fags thought their game was better because of that one slow matchup.
Holy shit this is way better to watch than the last match
>go from last match to this
glad the friendlies are over so we can get to a real tourney
Post Yfw Isai starts playing.
its just the matchup desu
Don't taunt Isai
NEVER TAUNT ISAI
>>324279495
TOO GOOD
Goddamn that was nice. What an improvement over the last game.
I-zay-uh?? not E-sigh?
>>324279495
HE'S JUST FUCKING AROUND WITH FOX LEL
He doesn't even play Fox
doc fags everywhere
NEVER TAUNT
>Melee in 180p
>>324279495
>>324279685
He plays everyone.
FOX WINS LMAO
NICE GAME MELEEFAGS
>>324279694
Is it bad I've been playing for two years but never saw the documentary?
This shit sucks when the fuck is melee
>>324279830
>MELEE
LMAO
>dreamland for 3 hours
>>324279907
Probably not.
>mfw the babbys who don't know about competitive 64 shut the fuck up now after getting btfo on not knowing 64 match ups
>>324279946
tricked <|:^)
>>324279972
Song never gets old
>that stock trade at like 150%
naisu
>>324279694
Can't appreciate this bodybagging just because Isai is in some 4 hour video? Fuck off shitposter
>>324279830
as long as you dont spout gay memes then nobody cares when you started playing.
>dont get le hit xD
>n0 johns xD
boom will destroy isai's fox. he's barely beating this scrub as it is.
>>324280052
>"don't get hit" is a meme
?
>>324280108
Isai probably won't play Fox against Boom you nigging nigger he just wanted to fuck with tacos.
>>324280154
how new are you?
I don't understand how you go from the 64 hitstun, shield stun, and recoveries to the shitfest brawl and sm4sh are. It's like they did a complete 180 on the series
>>324280259
HAL stopped making the game
RIP IN PIECE TACOS
Do you think isai stand a chance for 1st with just fox or will he need rat?
>>324280259
Thank Sakurai for being "that guy".
>>324280259
I don't know if you consider this good or not cause all three of those things are terribly strong in 64. Seriously DK's recovery is just depressing. Melee had probably the best balance of those three mechanics.
>CANT EVEN KO ON SHIELD BREAK
ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL
>that fucking choke
GAME
OVER
He taunted Isai again and got facerolled AGAIN
>Get shield break.
>Act like a smug fag and show off.
>Isai mashes out fast enough and doesnt get punished.
Serves you right
hey Isai is pretty good
FUCKING SPAGHETTI
GG ISAI
>missing shield break punish
>after taunting that much
>gettign 19XXed
>the city of tacos
>>324280327
This guy gets it. Sakurai never had anything to do with the good quality of 64 and Melee.
>Can't land a hit on shield break
>>324280549
>isai is TOO good
those shines
>fucking up the shield break
I S A I
S
A
I
TACO! THATS WHY YOU DONT FUCKING TAUNT UNTIL YOU WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU FUCKING RETARD!
I have no reaction image for how hard I'm laughing at that incredible fuckup
>>324280506
>"probably"
ayyy
>No tweets, No pot bonus.
Seriously what was the point of this fucking partnership
http://oddshot.tv/shot/showdownsmash-2016011720513705
DON'T TAUNT ISAI
>>324280259
Melee is quite literally the peak of hitstun/DI interactions
>>324280327
This. HAL is secretly one of the greatest developers in the industry. Anyone who plays Kirby games will tell you they're consistently fun as shit, and any other spinoff HAL makes is great too.
I guarantee you as soon as Sakurai left HAL he went from 'A part of a puzzle' to 'Everything goes through this man'.
CAPTAIN FUCKTON
It's "ee-sai," not "eye-zay." Of course no one cares and will continue to mispronounce it for all eternity.
>>324278208
>>324278368
>>324278634
The fuck are you talking about? It's using PST, GMT-8, which is not Hawaii time.
>>324280714
there was one tweet.
Thats it, its retarded.
No 20XXTe setups to save the off stream matches, no 19XX stages that are awesome. What a fucking joke.
>>324280714
ads and no project m
You're welcome! :)
we just saw a 5 stock.
>>324280851
PM wasnt going to be there to begin with since its dead like brawl
>Japan
>19XX allowed
>20XX and PM b&
I doubt Nintendo even remembers the 64 existed, but damn.
Isai vs Wario was fucking awesome, i hope thats grand finals.
FIVE STOCK
>Nips
it's ogre
PI KAPOW ER
Is there a vod of nintendude v m2k? I can't find anything on youtube or twitch.
>>324280851
PMDT disbanded and its their game so you're not allowed to play it anymoreat least according to ex-PMDT members
>>324280837
>>324280714
I've seen Nintendo employees retweet about genesis 3
>>324281065
Showdown uploads incredibly fast, should be on youtube by tonight
Pikachu only
No items
Dreamland
Remove pukeachu
>>324281110
They're just buthurt when people try to mod it, not play it anon.
>>324277162
Risk and reward, its the price you pay for parries and super armor on your DJ.
>>324280714
People thought after evo 2013 things would be smoother sailing with big N nut the truth is they couldn't control us from the outside so now they'll do it from the inside. And the smash community is so used to abuse that even the slightest corporate acknowledgement us unequivocally taken as a positive development if not outright compulsory.
>>324280830
I got it and checked the California time.
Still too late for me to watch the whole tournament, I guess I gotta watch this 64 thing
>>324281065
should be on the showdownsmash2 past broadcasts
>>324280837
20xxte isn't banned, only too buggy for tournament use as is
20xx is banned tho
