His Pyra/Mythra simply did not look that great. Definitely a step below what I saw from Cosmos.
His Byleth wasn't looking quite as good as usual either! Or maybe people are finally adapting to the character.
Chat was clamoring for him to break out the Joker tbh.Leo has no Joker anymore. He hasn't used it seriously in years and has stated that he doesn't like using the character.
Everyone else has dropped two or more sets this tournament.Protobanham was the only person in Summit who lost to Fatality. Really goes to show you how much specific character matchups and personal playstyle matters.
Sparg0 hasn't dropped one.

It's over.Every single time I see a player do a random last game character switch, it ends poorly. I have no ideas what the commentators are talking about when they keep saying that Min Min was a good idea or that 'the Lucina wasn't working'. Lucina took Fox to last stock last hit twice. You don't switch to a worse matchup because you're struggling to close games.
Light is so annoying to me.
lmao Proto what a bossAgreed on both accounts!

I'm going to have a shit day at work tomorrow lol. Why do these have to run so late
What is download
The way Proto did that was so fucking amazing.wait, Smash tournaments let you switch characters after you win a game? I assume loser gets to choose their character after the winner, at least? In every other fighting game the winner is forced to continue using the character(s) they won with (some team-based game rulesets would allow you to change team order or assists after winning though).
He won Game 1 with Min Min and then SWITCHED to Lucina. He had a big lead in game one but it looked like Leo got the download and was blowing him up. He ended up winning last hit.
Game 2 he got wrecked with Lucina and everyone is like WHY WHY WHY WOULD YOU SWITCH
Game 3 he went back to Min Min and blew Leo up and then he switched AGAIN and this is just speculation, but it looked like he switched off Min Min to prevent Leo from getting the download.
Game 4 Leo was cruising but Proto got a bonkers shield break and then completed a massive last stock comeback.
I love this game.
so like when a player picks up on your habits and starts punishing you, it's said that they downloaded you.I was gonna ask the same, haven't heard that one before. But at least I had it from context!
You'll see a lot of chats be like "Download complete" when a top player loses the first game of a set in an upset and then cruises the rest of the way.
