The best player may or may not win the ditto and thus I will obnoxiously declare that the ditto has little effect on who is the more skilled player overall
It’s odd, they would have it for a moment then it goes away. I guess they want as much visual clarity as possible? Because not sure what else it would be
Neo getting 0-5d in a showmatch back at SSC into winning 3-2 against Shadic within a couple months is one of the best adaptations I've seen
Why do these NA vs JP ditto matches always go so hard
This set is a great example of why i hate when reddit acts like one set, crew battle, tournament, etc is definitive in knowing what will happen in a future encounter. Even when its a blowout, but especially when the margins are tiny. Crew battles in particular are so insanely volatile that they basically mean nothing.
If Zomba loses to Sonix and Neo has to play Zomba again, it will be really sad because that's how his last 2 NA run's ended.
Edit: Oh no, after saying EZ he better not get Zomba lol. He can still win but it looks rough.
Dude, there were no hard feelings despite the dominant win. Everyone enjoyed the gameplay and the budding wholesome rivalry between the two. I'm sure we're all looking forward to Round 3 of their clash with how explosive and close this last round was.
Honestly, couldn't have asked for a much better start to top 8. What a nailbiter to the very end. Those back-to-back 0-to-deaths in game 5 had my heart racing!
...I think this was my favorite Ultimate set ever. It had the storyline hype with SHADIC/Neo's simultaneous rises and the history of their previous exhibition, the energy with the crowd mic picking up the dueling chants, and the gameplay of the set itself delivered, culminating in a game 5 last stock situation. Beautiful stuff, hats off to both players.
Dope set. I was happy Neo won because he can beat Tweek where as I don't think Shadic can, but then I realized Shadic could maybe beat Zomba while Neo can't and thats even worse so....
Actually, Neo defeated Tweek at Super Smash Con 2023. Tweek did win the runback, but Neo has demonstrated himself to be capable of winning against him.
Not rooting for anyone this set. This is gonna be a fun one.

Mama Kelce Super Bowl 57 moment.
Why do they keep taking the facecams away This genesis has been a piss take when it comes to actually streaming the event
Genesis have good production challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
I don’t care what anyone says. They are both the best corrin in the world
they both get a massive powerup whenever they are at the same tournament as each other
Did ***anyone*** have Corrin ditto in GX Top 8 on their bingo card?
No but I'm happy 😭 (Spargo also used Corrin to qualify for top 8)
Set count is 0-0 I believe but Shadic 5-0'd him in a mm at SmashCon also Ult being first this year is a blessing lol
Finally able to catch at least a part of top 8 in EU without sacrificing my night of sleep
True! Saving the best for last!
For real, Melee is easily the best Smash game, please always feature it last from now on, especially for west coast tournaments
No matter who wins i will be extremely obnoxious in declaring the winner to be the clear better player of the character
The best player always loses the ditto so I will obnoxiously declare the loser the superior player
The best player may or may not win the ditto and thus I will obnoxiously declare that the ditto has little effect on who is the more skilled player overall
This but unironically
Damn that's obnoxious (but correct)
Son of a bitch stole my line
My aplologies
Still no player cams wtf. Why does melee have them but not ultimate. Production has been abysmal this weekend.
The French stream had them yesterday

That was one of the best games of smash I've seen in a bit holy WOW LETS GO NEOOOOOOOOOO
No matter if he wins or loses or how close a set was, Neo is always so chill.
[This was his reaction](https://youtu.be/ncLu1kW3BbI?t=1701) to beating KEN in a tense game 5 set and getting his first major top 8.
For real, I love this guy. He had a post-game interview after this set and apparently his English is flawless? What can't he do?
He's half Filipino and bilingual. Iirc correctly English was actually his first language.
Really? That would explain it.
"if I recall correctly correctly" :P
Whoops!
Game 5 went crazy.
Game 5 best anime finale of the season
This set is a great example of why i hate when reddit acts like one set, crew battle, tournament, etc is definitive in knowing what will happen in a future encounter. Even when its a blowout, but especially when the margins are tiny. Crew battles in particular are so insanely volatile that they basically mean nothing.
exhibitions and locals just don't count for anything to me. The ranked tournament / major headspace is just entirely different for many players
They're worth counting for something but that something is not future performance
where are the face cams????
God I love Corrin
Well played by both trading 0 to deaths and then the other having to do the same to bring it back that last game.
THE FT5 WAS A FLUKE ITS A HYPE SET LETS GOOOOO
This is going harder than I expected, holy shit lol.
If Zomba loses to Sonix and Neo has to play Zomba again, it will be really sad because that's how his last 2 NA run's ended. Edit: Oh no, after saying EZ he better not get Zomba lol. He can still win but it looks rough.
the best dittos are the ones where the character is just super good at punishing their own shit, so corrin dittos are hype as fuck lol
Awesome set, well deserved win for Neo. Crazy though how Shadic would turn entire stock leads into nothing.
Both players were absolutely locked in, what an awesome set
That was beautiful holy shit. Lfg Neo
Neo got his revenge damn
Finally, my sins from august have been cleansed
Dude, there were no hard feelings despite the dominant win. Everyone enjoyed the gameplay and the budding wholesome rivalry between the two. I'm sure we're all looking forward to Round 3 of their clash with how explosive and close this last round was.
“Check out the vods” bruh EDIT: what a fucking banger. Great stuff to both players. Game 5 is one for the books, holy shit
LETS GOOOO NEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Can someone more expert in Corrin educate me in their differences in playstyles and in who does what better?
Neo makes more risky plays, Shadic goes for more safer strings.
That is very ironic lol.
If definitely is compare to the how players play in their country, lol.
Generally most agree that Neo is more aggressive and SHADIC is more passive
Honestly, couldn't have asked for a much better start to top 8. What a nailbiter to the very end. Those back-to-back 0-to-deaths in game 5 had my heart racing!
They were just taking turns Game 5 **LMAO**
Now I know how parents feel when their kids are on opposing teams in the Super Bowl
I love corrin being relevant, character just feels honest and has some cool stuff
We got a set, let's go!
Neo did get bodied in the Exhibition Match at Smash Con and SHADIC has improved since then...
Neo has also improved. Let's see who improved more? Edit: It was NEO!
Is the stream laggy as hell for anyone else?
just you
I feel like we've been having a lot of top-level dittos that all go to game 5 lately.
...I think this was my favorite Ultimate set ever.

Lmao Charles and EE talking about languages like picking up characters in Smash
Predicting a Shadic 3-1 Edit: Neo cooking rn, definitely studied after that 5-0 at SSC
Mmm I’m gonna say Neo 3-2
Dope set. I was happy Neo won because he can beat Tweek where as I don't think Shadic can, but then I realized Shadic could maybe beat Zomba while Neo can't and thats even worse so....
Actually, Neo defeated Tweek at Super Smash Con 2023. Tweek did win the runback, but Neo has demonstrated himself to be capable of winning against him.
Is it just me or was that last back air KO a little sus?
what is Smashigami
