Evo's almost here boys. Get those predictions in before tomorrow.
Pic related, no one's stopping the box this year.
cap this post:
- M2K wins both Smash 4 and Melee
- HBox doesn't get top 8
- Leffen appears regardless of his visa status
Happening
The One True God
-Never changed his character to keep up with the meta
-Never johnned on Twitter after a bad loss
-Secured a life outside of Smash, which somehow made him better at Smash
-Finally at the top after years of being the 2nd place master
WTFox was a necessity, he had to be humbled. But this EVO is his.
Axe will win EVO. He just needs to dodge Hbox. That's the only matchup he's pretty much lost in.
>- HBox doesn't get top 8
Not even getting a you, work on your bait.

It's not that insane, he got 9th at big house 4 which was a much less stacked tourney.
>Abate top 8
>M2K goes super saiyan to make up for not showing up last year
>leffen loses to a random Samus
Melee players: How do you enjoy watching the same 8 players throw down for like, 6 years?
Every other fighting game has way more top players, with new faces all the time
How does it not get old?

Because every single match is always different

The same way you're rooting for Daigo to win SFV even though he's been washed up for 5 years.
Top 32 of melee is where you get the best matchups anyway. the tippy top takes forever to change but when it does (e.g. Leffen, soon to be Plup) it changes the entire meta.

Abate and Leffen aren't going, Eddy Mexico and Ka-master are the only luigi hopes for top 8 (not sure if BleaGelo is going, he might be).
>>345057990
Well, I've not been watching for six years. Honestly though, it impresses me how the same few players can stay at the top, it's what makes upsets so exciting. I feel like Leffen only showed up about 3 years ago in a major fashion, but I still see your point.

I know right, and it would be the most interesting one.
I have a feeling some absolute who (ranked below top 40) will make top 8 this EVO, i'm putting my money on dizzkid
>yfw he wins both games on the biggest stage
>>345059939
The thing is he absolutely could, he has the skill, just not the mindset.
>>345060094
I mean, he only doesn't have the mindset in Loser's, and recently his tweets have shown nothing but a positive mindset.
