True

I wonder who'll start the final phase Leo: *The Aegis Main*

@@TeenXtacy SWT showed us that he did improve his aegis improved it like joker all over again

ehh, byleth is his 3rd cus he had his ike phase in the beginning

@@TeenXtacy Also remembered as the shit phase. Where every top player drops their char to pick Aegis.

That’s so crazy

Dark Wizzy was top 10 at the time, aside from Frostbite he got top 8 at every tournament and good top player wins, including on Tweek.

Dark dizzy prolly was top 10 at this point like the other reply says, but Salem was also unreal. I mean right before he played Leo he beat kome, one of japans best

@@SeriousStriker he wasn’t top 10 But he was the best mario so it was scary seeing what happened with prodigy

I mean yeah it’s cool, but leo still won the tourney lmao. It’s even more ridiculous leo came back from a devastating 3-0 from a relatively random player.

I think leo could have easily won this matchup specifically if he counterpicked with sword character but there’s prolly a reason he stuck with joker. But Leo’s lucina or Ike would easily take control over Mario lmao

@@stephaniecurry45 release leos meat pls

@@compn.o7671 i dont think he even needed to, he beat dark wizzy with joker.

iirc leo himself said that he simply was not ready for prodigy’s play, it caught him off guard

In fairness this is an old video and the creator couldnt have known that leo was intending to switch main. At the time everyone thought it was disrespect

It’s mostly even. The whole game boils down to who can control more space, and who can be more patient. The only wildcard in the matchup that gives joker the advantage is arsene.

@@jacobreynolds3917 Not buying it. Joker out-disjoints him and even without Arsene can just kill him at 80. Gun can't be reflected, G&W's super linear and predictable aerials give free rebel's guard, and the only way G&W can stall against Arsene puts him in hard disadvantage

@@willycheez7218 I get it, that’s why I said it matters how it’s played. To be fair i’d say joker can get away with throwing out moves more but g&w is better when it comes to frame data so joker struggles to get in. Cook, back air and nair does a good job of anti-airing while g&w’s tilts cover the ground. On paper g&w does have the tools to deal with joker,(except for arsene) granted i’ve only played one side of the matchup.

@@jacobreynolds3917 G&W actually struggles hard on the ground bscause up tilt basically has no hitbox and down tilt is very small, lasts only 3 frames and can ONLY hit grounded opponents. All he has is forward tilt. He has to stay airborne, where he will lose every trade. G&W might not have much endlag but the startup on his moves is morbid

@@willycheez7218 Well, as far as startup goes jokers only move that beats G&W in startup is up tilt which is almost never used as someone who plays joker due to its terrible endlag. I’d also like to point out that G&W’s ariels remain active way longer than jokers which allows for more variation and overall makes them harder to deal with. I can write these examples off however as being different in practice than it shows on paper.

idk why it's suddenly being recommended to people either but im glad you watched it! Light's losers run is definitely up there, was a beautiful sight to see

Not at all Leo still is better

Leo beat like every top player though. Light's isn't even close tbh. Really good though obviously.

Light’s run was absolutely incredible, but in terms of sheer results, Leo’s unbelievably stacked losers run might go unmatched for the rest of Ult. Light had to fight Sparg0, Maister, MVD, Kola, Marss, Pink Fresh, Aaron, Suarez, Nhan, Squidplumber, and Mr. B, all incredibly strong top players for sure, some of which are some of the best in the game. But to put into perspective, MKLeo had to fight through PGR’s #2 (Samsora), #3 (Tweek), #4 (Nairo), #6 (Maister), #7 (Zackray), #9 (Dabuz), #12 (Tea), #22 (Dark Wizzy), and #30 (Salem) in Bo5s. Sure, Leo is ranked #1, but I think we sometimes forget how bonkers it is that he tore through a bracket composed almost exclusively of top 30 players worldwide.

He beat japans #1 and US #2, along with 4 other players at the Top 10 at the time its not even close

never forgot about you :)

The only people that are gonna watch this video are people that are gonna understand why based off the information presented in the video.

It was a different time

My bad, i just looked at the date of the video.

I bet you think top tiers like palu don't count, and maybe heavys don't count because they're low skill? Edit:6 month late reply, my b

Agreed but I made it like 4 years ago when I didn't know shit
