His Pyra/Mythra simply did not look that great. Definitely a step below what I saw from Cosmos.

The way Proto did that was so fucking amazing.

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.

No sympathy. I'm so mad he switched to that garbage instead of fighting Gluto with Byleth.

I'm rooting for Sparg0 or Proto. Sparg0 because he's been so close so many times, and Proto because he somehow makes Lucina exciting, and the North American SSB scene needs to pay more attention to Japan in general. Light would be fine too but Fox fanboys lowkey annoy me so I'm okay if he goes down.

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.

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.

I think he was just banking on NA not knowing the matchup. Getting free wins on mkleo and tweek bolstered his confidence

I think he was planning on taking a game with Lucina and then switching to prevent the download but honestly Light doesn't download like Leo does he just fucking railroads you with Fox's absurd speed.

so like when a player picks up on your habits and starts punishing you, it's said that they downloaded you.

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.

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).

Yeah you can change your character at any time. I just think the winner has to declare who their character is gonna be first.

First round is usually a blind character pick so you can't counterpick in round one.
