| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 5:05:52 PM #46 | Match 5: Bowser/Bowser Jr. vs. Kirby/Jigglypuff Sephiroth: The puffballs have had great success thus far, but have they bitten off more than they can chew here? *Bowser and Bowser Jr. surround Kirby and simultaneously hit him with smash attacks to deal good damage right off the bat. Jigglypuff hits Bowser Jr. with her down-B to get him for good damage. Kirby and Jigglypuff take some hard hits but hold on. Kirby gets knocked into the air and hits both opponents with his down-B on the way down. Bowser nails Jigglypuff with his side-smash to get the first KO. Then he catches Kirby with his side-B to KO him a few moments later* Crono: Kirby and Jigglypuff are doing their best to hang in there, but the size disadvantage is manifesting itself early. *Kirby and Jigglypuff start to get aggressive and rack up the damage on both opponents, sending them flying and nearly KOing them on a couple of occasions. Kirby sends Bowser flying with a side-smash, but this activates Bowsers Final Smash, who uses it to save himself. He clobbers Jigglypuff with it for another KO. Kirby and Jigglypuff get their Final Smashes as well. Jigglypuff uses it to launch Bowser Jr. for a KO. Then Kirby hits Bowser with his Final Smash to KO him at 210%* Sephiroth: That might be what it takes to get the puffballs back into this match. *Bowser Jr. gets his Final Smash and uses it to net a double KO. Kirby inhales Bowser and steals his power. Kirby tries to slam Bowser below the stage with his down-B without success as a Smash Ball appears. Bowser Jr. grabs it and uses the Final Smash right away, but he cant really do any damage because Bowser KOs Jigglypuff right after he uses it and Kirby manages to float around the area of effect* Crono: Bowser Jr. gets back to back Final Smashes there. Kirby or Jigglypuff couldve really used that Smash Ball. *Bowser launches Kirby with his side-smash for a KO right as Jigglypuff crushes Bowser Jr. with her down-B to KO him. Bowser gets his Final Smash and hits both opponents but only KOs Jigglypuff. Jigglypuff gets her Final Smash and uses it to get a double KO of her own. Kirby gets his Final Smash as well and hits Bowser with it for good damage as Jigglypuff connects with her down-B on Bowser Jr. again. Kirby launches both fighters with his up-smash but cant get the KO. Jigglypuff gets knocked below the stage by Bowser Jr. and gets careless as she floats for too long and cant get back. However, Kirby catches both opponents with his down-air and drives them down for a double KO* Sephiroth: Wow, what a shot by Kirby. *Bowser Jr. gets his Final Smash and catches Kirby with it for a KO. Bowser gets his Final Smash as well and uses it right away, crushing Jigglypuff for the KO. All four fighters basically started over at 0% with 30 seconds to go, so no serious KO attempts were made from there on out* Sephiroth: Bowser and Bowser Jr. win, +4 to -4! The sheer size advantage was just too much for the puffballs to overcome. Crono: Bowser especially was dominant, grabbing 7 KOs just by himself. Kirby and Jigglypuff were able to rack up some KOs of their own, so it wasnt like they were totally helpless. Kirby actually dealt the most damage of anyone, but Jigglypuff got KOd 7 times, many of them at low percentages. Bowsers peak damage was 211% and Bowser Jr. peaked at 186%, while Kirbys peak was 139% and Jigglypuffs was only 122%. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 5:05:10 PM #483 | TheRock1525 posted... But I question what is to gain at this point when if the first impressions have left you uninterested in the game, why return to the topic 10 days after release? Because I've been lurking in the topic the whole time? I've been curious to see what people who are actually playing the game have to say about the leaks that came out beforehand. The disparity in the viewpoints interests me, even if I have little interest in the game. The meta aspect of TLOU2 is probably going to wind up being more fascinating to me than the game itself. But I generally don't look at presenting my opinion in terms of structure like "stronger, equal, or weaker," so that's a bit strange to me. Either way, I don't really plan to jump into every TLOU2 topic with a "I don't want to play this game" discussion. This seemed like the place to have that discussion. --- |

| Topic | **SPOILER TOPIC** The Last of Us Part 2 **SPOILERS** |
| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 4:45:34 PM #479 | I mean, I never even said Abby isn't sympathetic. My point was that just being sympathetic wouldn't be enough for me (two key words) if she's still not likable because they aren't the same thing. I can't get invested in someone ruining their own life through a series of bad decisions if the game presents them to me as the hero, theoretically the person I should be rooting for to succeed. That is me. That is why I'm not interested in playing the game. You want more games like TLOU2, then I hope you get them. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 4:40:28 PM #476 | TheRock1525 posted... I'm saying to come back in and say "the game doesn't make Abby sympathetic" in a game you literally did not play is trying to insert your opinion as somehow as valid as someone like Han or XIII who played to the very end. It's not that you're saying they didn't like the game, it's that you're saying that your youtube watching experience somehow holds enough merit to offer a valid response to their feelings on the game. It's not saying that either. --- |

Just that when I counter one of Leon's point and he goes "well I'm not going to play it anyway" then why I should consider his opinion worth anything? I'm not offering any opinions on the quality of the game itself. If I said it was a bad game, then sure, ignore anything I have to say. --- |

And even if that's enough for you to dismiss the game, the larger point is that it seems that you want to believe it's an equally valid opinion as someone who put the time into the game. It seems you want to believe that I believe that. I haven't been dismissive of anyone who likes the game. --- |

I feel like trying to gauge exactly how many posts I've made in this topic in an attempt to make some grander point is a bigger waste of time And I played the first game, so it's not quite the same as a series I have zero experience with. You definitely don't see me posting in topics about Dark Souls. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 4:25:10 PM #467 | TheRock1525 posted... He made 25 posts in this topic for a game he never intends to play. And this is a problem because...? The topic turned to "it's a shame people aren't going to play this game because the leaks don't do the game justice" so I chimed back in as to why I'm still not interested in it. I'm glad people like it! Like I said before, it's a Naughty Dog game, so I'm sure it's well made. It's just not for me, and the creator of the game seems fine with the fact that it's not for everyone! --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 4:20:09 PM #45 | Match 4: Luigi/Yoshi vs. Corrin/Robin Sephiroth: Its the green team against the in team in this match! *All four fighters are evenly matched early on as they rack up damage, but no major blows are landed. Corrin and Robin gang up on Yoshi for a while, and then Corrin hits him with his up-air for a KO. Yoshi returns and sends Corrin flying with an up-smash, but he hangs on. Then Yoshi gets his Final Smash, but he opts to hit Corrin with another up-smash for a KO first. He catches Robin with his Final Smash to KO him a few seconds later* Crono: A solid one-two punch from Yoshi there! *Corrin gets his Final Smash, and he blasts Yoshi with it for the KO. Robin gets his Final Smash as he launches Luigi, and Corrin follows up with a side-air for the KO. Then Robin uses his Final Smash on Yoshi for good damage. A Smash Ball drops on the stage as Luigi gets his Final Smash. Robin initially grabs it, but Luigi knocks it out with his dashing attack and uses his Final Smash in the next instant to catch both fighters and send them flying for a KO* Sephiroth: Thats a potential game-changer. How do you let Luigi dislodge the Smash Ball with that wimpy attack? *Yoshi grabs the Smash Ball and catches both opponents in it as well and sends them flying after dealing good damage. All four battle off the side of the stage as Corrin sends Luigi flying up into the air. Then he sends Robin up into the air, and then Corrin sends Luigi up into the air again. Robin nails Yoshi with his up-smash for the KO. Luigi hits Robin with his side-smash a few seconds later to KO him. Yoshi hits Corrin with his up-smash but cant get the KO. Robin returns and crushes Luigi with his side-air for a revenge KO* Crono: That was a quick around the horn of KOs there! *Yoshi catches Corrin with his up-air to launch him off the top of the screen for a KO. Robin gets his Final Smash and nails Luigi with it for the KO. Corrin gets his Final Smash a few seconds later but opts to hold onto it. Luigi gets his Final Smash and catches Corrin with it, launching him off the side but not KOing him. Robin hits Yoshi with his up-smash for a KO. Corrin tries to use his Final Smash but misses. Robin and Corrin bounce Luigi around and try to KO him in the waning seconds but cant quite get him* Sephiroth: Corrin and Robin win, +1 to -1! I had no idea who was going to win that one as time ran out. It felt like an even match the whole way through. Crono: And this was about as close to an even performance on all sides as it gets. Robin got 4 KOs while everyone else got 3. Yoshi was KOd 4 times while everyone else was KOd 3 times. Yoshi and Robin dealt similar amounts of damage, as did Luigi and Corrin. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 4:01:50 PM #44 | Match 3: Pit/Dark Pit vs. Pikachu/Pichu Sephiroth: Trying to say all four fighters participating in this match is a mouthful! *Pikachu and Pichu quickly knock Dark Pit off the side and try to drive him down below the stage, but his great recovery allows him to get back. All four fighters keep dueling off the edge of the stage, and Dark Pit tries to land a couple of meteor strikes on Pichu. However, he doesnt quite strike true, so Pichu is able to get back. Dark Pit launches both opponents with his neutral combo, and then Pit nails Pichu with a meteor strike for the KO. Then Pit follows it up with a side-air to KO Pikachu a second later* Crono: The two Pits are working well together so far. *Pikachu hits Dark Pit with his side-smash to launch him, but it doesnt KO him. However, Pikachu is waiting for him when he gets back and nails him with his up-air to finish the job. Pichu returns the favor from earlier by crushing Pit with a meteor strike for a KO. Pikachu gets his Final Smash but completely misses with it. Dark Pit gets his Final Smash and catches Pichu with it for a KO, while Pit simultaneously blasts Pikachu for a KO of his own* Sephiroth: Will Pikachu ever connect on a Final Smash? *Pit gets his Final Smash and lines it up to nail Pikachu for the KO. Pichu gets his Final Smash but also whiffs entirely. A Smash Ball appears, and Dark Pit breaks it open. However, he doesnt hit anyone with his Final Smash this time. Pikachu hits Pit with his side-air to send him flying. When he tries to come back, Pikachu hits him with it again to get the KO. Pit returns and hits Pichu with his dashing attack for a KO* Crono: The two Pits seem to have an answer for everything the two Pokemon throw at them. *Pichu hits Dark Pit with his side-B and launches him, but he holds on. Both Pokemon chase out after him, but its Pikachu who hits Dark Pit off the side to get the KO. Pikachu gets his Final Smash and actually manages to catch both opponents with it for good damage, but it doesnt KO either one of them since theyve recently respawned. Then Pit gets his Final Smash but misses* Sephiroth: Wow, Pikachu finally hit with his Final Smash, but he still cant get a KO with it. *Dark Pit gets his Final Smash and crushes Pichu with it for the KO. A Smash Ball appears as Pikachu launches Dark Pit for a KO. Pichu gets his Final Smash and hits Dark Pit with it for good damage. Dark Pit breaks open the Smash Ball and launches Pikachu for a KO in the process. Then he hits Pichu with his Final Smash for a KO with 5 seconds remaining* Sephiroth: Pit and Dark Pit win, +4 to -4! That was a dominant performance by this team in their debut. Crono: Both Pit and Dark Pit posted individual positive scores, which is a rarity for tag team matches. Pichu was a mess, only getting 1 KO and taking 5. Dark Pit bounced back from his early struggles to deal the most damage in the match. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 3:42:59 PM #43 | Match 2: Inkling/Piranha Plant vs. Link/Cloud Strife Sephiroth: Link has the home stage advantage in this one, but it hasnt really been much of an advantage in these tournaments thus far. Can he reverse the trend? *Link and Cloud come out dealing heavy damage on their opponents, but Inkling and Piranha Plant dont let themselves get KOd. Piranha Plant launches Link with his projectile, and Inkling knocks him back up into the air so Piranha Plant can hit him with another projectile for the KO. Link wastes no time upon his return, blasting Piranha Plant with his up-smash for a revenge KO. He quickly follows it up by nailing Inkling with his side-air for another KO* Crono: Some good teamwork by Inkling and Piranha Plant, but they only succeeded in making Link mad. *Link gets his Final Smash but misses. Then Piranha Plant gets his Final Smash and catches both fighters, KOing Cloud and dealing good damage to Link. Inkling gets her Final Smash but opts to hold onto it. Link launches Piranha Plant off the side but cant quite get the KO. Then Inkling nails Link with her Final Smash for the KO as Cloud gets his own Final Smash. He catches both opponents with it for the double KO. However, Piranha Plant nails Cloud with his up-smash upon returning for a quick revenge KO* Sephiroth: Death and destruction everywhere you look in this match! *A Smash Ball appears, and Inkling is the one who comes down with it. She catches both foes in its blast, but she can only KO Link with it. Piranha Plant gets his Final Smash, but he cant manage to capture anyone with it. Link gets his Final Smash and sends Inkling flying with it, but she survives. Cloud catches Piranha Plant with his up-smash for a KO* Crono: They just keep going back and forth! *Cloud launches Inkling with his side-smash, but Piranha Plant catches him from behind to KO him as well. Piranha Plant nails Link with his projectile for another KO as Inkling gets her Final Smash. She catches Link with it for another quick KO. Cloud, Link, and Piranha Plant all get their Final Smashes as a Smash Ball appears. Cloud strikes first, nailing Piranha Plant for the KO. Piranha Plant grabs the Smash Ball upon returning as Link nails Inkling with his Final Smash for a KO with 15 seconds remaining. Piranha Plant uses his Final Smash, but Petey Piranha jumps off the side before it can do any damage* Sephiroth: That was unfortunate because *Its Super Sudden Death! Link hits Piranha Plant to KO him, and Cloud hits Inkling a moment later to KO her and end the match* Sephiroth: Link and Cloud win! It was looking dicey for them for a while, but those late KOs allowed them to tie it up and win in sudden death. Its about time someone wins with the home stage. Crono: And Link needed Cloud to do it, for sure. Cloud and Piranha Plant put up similar KO numbers, but Cloud dealt 125% more damage than he received, while the opposite was true for Piranha Plant. Inkling took as much damage as she dealt, and it was nearly the same for Link. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/28/20 3:15:41 PM #42 | Tag Team Tournament Match 1: Donkey Kong/Diddy Kong vs. Rosalina & Luma/Banjo-Kazooie Sephiroth: Rosalina just lost a tough match, but can she put it behind her and ride Banjos momentum to a victory? *Diddy and Banjo beat up on each other early while DK pounds on Rosalina. DK knocks her off the side and she recovers with her up-B, but he jumps out to hit her with his side-air for the KO. DK hits Banjo with his tilt to launch him, but he hangs on. Rosalina knocks DK off the side and tries to land the meteor strike but misses. Banjo launches both DK and Diddy. Both of them are making their way back to the stage, but Banjo follows it up with a side-air to KO DK* Crono: These two teams seem evenly matched early on. *Banjo knocks Diddy off the side, and while hes trying to use his up-B to recover, his rocket barrels fly off and he drops for a KO. Rosalina gets her Final Smash and lands a full strike on DK, but his percentage is too low to KO him. This also activates his Final Smash, which he holds onto for a while. Diddy launches Banjo, which then activates his Final Smash. When he gets back to the stage, he nails Diddy with it, but he survives and gets his own Final Smash. Diddy uses it right away and gets the double KO on Rosalina and Banjo* Sephiroth: A seemingly endless cycle of Final Smashes works out in Diddys favor. *DKs Smash Gauge runs out without him ever using his Final Smash. However, he jumps off the side and clobbers Rosalina with a meteor strike to KO her. A moment later, Banjo knocks Diddy beyond recovery for a KO as a Smash Ball appears. Banjo gets it and nails DK with his Final Smash for the KO. DK knocks Rosalina off the side and keeps trying to knock her back down with his down-air, but she recovers each time. Rosalina gets her Final Smash and nails both characters but only KOs Diddy* Crono: This time, Banjo and Rosalina find success with their Final Smashes. *Donkey Kong gets another Final Smash. This time he uses it, but he misses. Banjo nails DK with his side-B and launches him, but he manages to recover. Diddy gets his Final Smash and uses it right away, getting another double KO. Rosalina comes back and nails DK with her side-smash for the KO* Sephiroth: Those double KOs for Diddy could prove to be a difference maker. *Banjo gets his Final Smash and catches DK with it for a KO. Diddy launches Banjo with his up-smash but cant KO him. DK gets another Final Smash as Rosalina sends Diddy flying for a KO. DK finally lands a Final Smash, crushing Rosalina with it for a KO with only 5 seconds remaining. He grabs Banjo and throws him, launching him off the stage, but time expires before the KO can register* Sephiroth: Rosalina and Banjo win, +1 to -1! Time just ran out on the monkeys at the end there. Crono: Banjo was the MVP of this match, registering 5 KOs and only taking two. DK, Rosalina, and Banjo all dealt around 550% but Diddy lagged behind at only 350%. Rosalina, Banjo, and Diddy all took around 470% damage, but DK was way ahead at 630%. --- |

It was great at the time, but it led to a series of circumstances that culminated in the most embarassing loss in Board 8 history. Losing to Sandbag would've still been embarrassing even if 2003 never happened. It just magnified it somewhat, but Magus was already an established fraud at that point. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/27/20 5:27:23 PM #38 | Match 2: Rosalina & Luma vs. Isabelle Sephiroth: This will determine who faces off with Olimar in the finals. Rosalina once again squares off with a female fighter, but can she finally cool down Isabelles hot streak? *Isabelle starts off fighting aggressively and keeping Rosalina completely off her game. Early on, the Luma deals more direct damage to Isabelle than Rosalina herself does. A Smash Ball appears, and Rosalina is able to get it. Unfortunately, she misplays it by using it at the stages edge, so she does no damage to Isabelle, who nearly KOs her with her up-smash in the process. She grabs Rosalina and throws her straight up for a KO (Isabelle 3-2)* Crono: Rosalina looks completely rattled out there. She needs to calm down. *Rosalina is finally able to get some offense going, but she cant stop Isabelle from dealing some good damage of her own. Isabelle nearly floats under the stage and self-destructs, but she manages to get back. When she does, Rosalina nails her with her side-smash for the KO (2-2)* Sephiroth: Looks like Rosalina has found her groove. *Rosalina tries to play hit and run on Isabelle and it works for a bit until she runs into one of her explosive traps and gets launched. A Smash Ball appears, and Rosalina gets it again. She knocks Isabelle up into the air and uses her Final Smash in the middle of the stage this time. However, Isabelle is able to stay afloat above the stage and once again takes no damage. Rosalina launches her with her up-smash as she falls back down and nearly KOs her. Isabelle hits Rosalina with her dashing attack to launch her. She keeps knocking her back until a side-air finally registers the KO (Isabelle 2-1)* Crono: Once again, Rosalina cant take advantage of a Smash Ball. That might come back to haunt her. *Rosalina goes for the quick KO, hitting Isabelle with a few attacks to wear her down before blasting her with her side-smash for the KO (1-1)* Sephiroth: And now whoever gets the next KO will be headed to the finals! *Isabelle goes on the offensive, catching Rosalina with her explosive traps and throws a few times. Isabelle launches her with her side-air, but Rosalina is able to get back. A Smash Ball appears, and this time Isabelle gets it. Rosalina tries to use Luma to knock it out of her but to no avail. Isabelle is eventually able to capture Rosalina with her Final Smash to end the match (Isabelle wins, 1-0)* Sephiroth: Isabelle wins! I dont imagine most people saw an Olimar/Isabelle final coming before all this started! Crono: Isabelle was once again an offensive machine, dealing 451% damage to Rosalinas 314%. Her ability to completely avoid both of Rosalinas Final Smashes might have proven to be vital to her victory in this match. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/27/20 5:24:02 PM #37 | Lightweight Tournament Match 1: Jigglypuff vs. Captain Olimar Sephiroth: Next week, one of these fighters will be battling for a championship. Who will it be? *Olimar has trouble hitting Jigglypuff with his Pikmin early on, so he falls behind in percentage. He eventually is able to get settle down and getting his offense going. Jigglypuff tries to use his down-B but cant connect, so Olimar uses the window of vulnerability to crush her with side-smash for the KO (Olimar 3-2)* Crono: Thats the nature of that move. Its all or nothing, so when Jigglypuff misses, she leaves herself wide open for a counterattack. *A Smash Ball appears, and Jigglypuff grabs it. However, instead of using it right away, she clobbers Olimar with her up-smash to bounce him off the front of the screen for the KO (2-2)* Sephiroth: Jigglypuff opting to go for the old-fashioned KO and save the Final Smash for later, and it paid off. *Jigglypuff uses her Final Smash once Olimars invincibility frames wear off to deal some good damage. Jigglypuff stays on the offensive and prevents Olimar from being able to use his Pikmin effectively. Olimar is able to get in some shots to deal damage, but eventually Jigglypuff nails him with her dashing attack for the KO (Jigglypuff 2-1)* Crono: And now Jigglypuff is only one knockout away from the finals! *Jigglypuff tries to play keepaway despite having the advantage as Olimar tries to hit her in the air. He eventually nails her with his side-air but doesnt quite get the KO. He hits Jigglypuff with his up-smash but once again doesnt get the KO. Then he nails Jigglypuff with back-to-back up-airs to get the KO (1-1)* Sephiroth: Its anybodys game with a spot in the finals on the line! *A Smash Ball appears, and Jigglypuff gets it. She uses it to deal good damage but doesnt get the KO. Olimar continues to pelt Jigglypuff with his Pikmin to gain the advantage in percentage. Jigglypuff rolls into Olimars up-smash for a KO to end the match (Olimar wins, 1-0)* Sephiroth: Captain Olimar wins! Our smallest fighter makes his way into the finals of the lightweight tournament. Crono: Olimar went through a dry spell with his offense a couple of times, but he was always able to get his act together when he needed to, dealing 422% damage for the match. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/26/20 11:21:11 PM #265 | Team Rocket Elite posted... Sub-Zero is more popular but I've heard Boon likes Scorpion so it would probably be Scorpion. I haven't kept up with MK lore so I'm not sure what Liu Kang's current status is but he used to be the protagonist, right? Scorpion is indeed Ed Boon's favorite character, so if it was his choice, it'd be Scorpion. Liu Kang's status in the series is weird these days, but I don't think he'd ever be chosen anyway. The ninjas are too popular for it to be anyone else. --- |

| LeonhartFour 06/26/20 6:19:52 PM #35 | Match 3: Shulk vs. Byleth Sephiroth: This should be an interesting battle between two characters who wield distinctive weapons. *Both fighters come out swinging wildly with their weapons but cant land any big hits with them. They gradually settle down and start dealing good damage on each other. Shulk eventually crushes Byleth with an up-smash to KO him (Shulk 3-2)* Crono: I think both fighters had some nerves early on, but Shulk looks like hes really settled down into a rhythm. *Byleth comes back going for the one big hit. He uses his down-B for the power shot, but Shulk blocks it. Unfortunately, it shatters his shield, so he helplessly stands there stunned as Byleth obliterates him with his down-B this time for a vicious KO (2-2)* Sephiroth: Thats the power of the ancient relics for you. *The two continue to duel as a Smash Ball drops onto the stage. Shulk is able to grab it and catches Byleth with his Final Smash for the KO (Shulk 2-1)* Crono: That could prove to be the difference maker when the fight is as even as this one appears to be. *Once again, Byleth returns looking for the OHKO. He catches Shulk off guard by using his down-B in the air and unleashing it right on top of his head for another brutal KO (1-1)* Sephiroth: Not much you can do when you get hit on the head with that thing. *Shulk goes on the attack and keeps Byleth on the ropes. He knocks Byleth off the side with his side-smash and then jumps out after him, nailing him with a meteor strike to end the match (Shulk wins, 1-0)* Sephiroth: Shulk wins! That was a captivating battle featuring some unique weapons. Crono: Byleth had the power advantage and showed it when he was able to land those big shots, but Shulk was more consistent and efficient with his offense, dealing about 100% more damage than his opponent. --- |
