This run by Zomba is surely going down in ultimate history. Going undefeated until grand finals set 1 beating sonix, gluto, spargo, tweek, and plenty more will surely be remembered. His interview after winners semis was hilarious and he managed to keep his word on it. GGS Zomba!

It's really clear that sonix doesn't have a driver license and that's why Zomba won

on the Lights Out podcast mans said he was winning Genesis and he actually did

This dude clearly has a license.

Extremely happy for Zomba on getting a victory in Genesis X! Taking 1st place in Genesis to mark a historic achievement with the big R.O.B.

Rob keeping sonix from hardcore camping made this set so much better for me. Noticed that sonix has timed out less and less, I hope he gets more aggressive since there is no way he isn’t gonna stay around in the competitive scene.

It’s insane how many upsets were made during these top 8!

He’s been on the grind lately, and this win is definitely deserved. Easily the most entertaining personality in Smash. We need this kind of fun right now

Solo R.O.B’s biggest tournament victory yet! Zomba is the only player to hold both of R.O.B’s solo major wins, which is a huge and historic accomplishment! Let’s what Ultimate’s heel can pull off at the next event. But for now, congratulations, Zomba!!

zomba最強すぎる！ 優勝おめでとー！

Genesis be staying consistent cooking with these top 8s Congrats to Zomba and it’s a hype event to watch!

i'm so gald to finally hear a comentator know sonic's moveset and techniques, like the side b cancel mid air to reverse fair-bair, or the spin ride Sonix tried . plenty of knowledge there, kudos for that!

ZOMBACLAATTTTT!!!!

So glad Zomba finally won

Rewatching this 2 months later It’s becoming clear that Zomba in fact has a license.

31:04 that was a brilliant back air

Is R.O.B. the hero that Ultimate never knew it needed??????

I am literally obsessed with the theme music at the end but couldn't remember what game it was from. I have spent 30 minutes of my time to discover that it's "Ballad of the Goddess" from Zelda Skyward Sword.

Valliant effort by Sonix! The audience's exclusive support for Zomba may seem lackluster, yet it reflects the usual behavior of this community.

ROB is part of a select group of characters that have won a "Solo" Major Smash Ultimate tournament like ZSS, Pichu, Olimar, Joker, Wario, Pokemon Trainer, Peach, Pikachu, Pac Man, Fox, Sora, Byleth, Pyra/Mythra, Yoshi, Steve, Sonic, Corrin, Mr G&W, Kazuya and Diddy Kong. As opposed to Ike, Lucina, Terry, Sephiroth, Cloud, Wolf, Min Min, Roy, Bayonetta, Greninja, Mega Man, Mario, Snake, Inkling, Palutena, Marth, and others, which have been alternated during tournament as far as I know. Correct me if I'm wrong.

When can we add smash to betting apps lol

It truly feels like Zomba was the best player in the world for this entire weekend at least. Defeating the 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 7th best players, and going undefeated into winners really sealed the deal that he may be the new best player of the US.

Both players just going back to PS2 for seven games in a row lmao, the stage rules in Ultimate are dire

Man, gotta give it up for Zomba. My guy was on fireeee this tournament. Plus he kept a Sonic from winning Genesis 😎

ZOMBA stood on business till the end

This is the Grand Finals of GENESIS, and it has 30k views, this is actually really sad 😅

Zomba’s inputs are sooooo freaking quick I swear he plays rob like he’s the flash. The tilts, the bairs, they are insane! Hell of a sets all around. Don’t wanna hear anyone complain about sonix these sets he was scrapping gg

26:04 sonix天才 横B？下B？で反転して発生の早い空中前を撃ってる。空中後ろでは間に合わないと思った判断なのかな？天才すぎ

ミーヤー、スパーゴ、あこーら、ソニックス以外が優勝したの見るの久々だなー

Congrats to Zomba! 🎉 he adapted so well!

a third of the comment is nothing but complaining about characters and the players. this community sucks lmao

Zomba trying so hard to be the Leffen of ultimate. This only going to make his ego bigger. Well played none the less.

this might be one of the only times that taunt into get bodied wasn’t a true combo ggs to zomba, if we have more sets like this it’s going to be a fun year

Es tan gratificante ver a zomba ganar génesis y su gran run 👏👏👏

Bet it smells crazy in there

15:50 :O

It feels like sonix has changed his gameplay. Maybe audience hate for sonic has gotten to him. He’s a high level competitor. How silly of us to cry so hard over something being a little boring.

Whats up with the uploads having no effort put into them for this tourney?? Its super hard to find the games and none of them have real thumbnails. Doesn't do it much justice

Sonix played so hype this grands it's crazy

How is he not sponsored?!

29:18 that double spinshop moment was amazing 😵

Sonixのプレーめちゃくちゃカッコ良くてずっとSonix応援してた！(惜しくも敗れたけど) なんでこんなにアウェーなのか意味分かんねえよ(アメリカのプレイヤーじゃ無いから？)

大型大会でロボ単は優勝できないって言ってた日本人プレイヤーがいたような…

This was an amazing Grands. I don't wanna hear anyone say a Sonix set can never be hype. This and Losers Finals was hype as hell.

He got lucky Light didn't fight him in winners, sparg0 helped in there

So glad Zomba won this. ROB seems to be a great fit for forcing sonic to interact. It was really painful watching Tweek fight so hard just to watch Sonix spin around the stage for 45 minutes...

Love this combination of commentators. Always good colorful commentary.

R.O.B has always been the best character at all time, has the best recovery

Gratz to Zomba and his driver's license. 🎉

What was up with the battlefield pick (robs best stage, I don't think is even that good for sonic). He seems upset that they're going to battlefield sonix throws his hands up twice before zomba calls the TO over. Sonix picked the stage right?

Who let my boy COOK? Gordon Ramsay would be proud.

45:46 Re-watching this I ended up pausing it right there and you can just see that hit ready to be delivered that is quite the frame to capture seconds before that stock gets annihilated 💀

I honestly wanted sonix to win, but congrats to zomba he did have a pretty good run

Sucks seeing sonic in every grand finals 😢

Thank you Zomba for finally making me root for Sonix

If Sonix had his drivers license he could have won this whole thing 😂

Congrats Zomba! Very well played!

Awesome. My main wins and one of my favorite songs from Castlevania SOTN as the music for the last game of the set.

This was amazing! What a set dude!

i don't want zomba to be the best player, this dude is annoying

I hate how Zomba won his ego is too big bro.

Unbelievable run by Zomba. Here's hoping he keeps this up the rest of the year! I'd be happy if he was #1.

zombaは以下の理由により過大評価です。 ・zombaからロボを取り上げると、ランキングTOP100にも入らない ・ロボは今回の大会のTOP64最多キャラである ・日本のトッププレイヤー(acola,miya)に勝てない そして最近ロボには強力なバグが見つかったのでバンが妥当でしょう。 ばかなこというな？ 上のコメントはNAがacolaに対して言ったものと同じです。 私は本当はzombaが素晴らしいことを知っています。 ただ、これを機にacolaへの認識を改めてはいかがでしょうか。

Bro, what type of chairs are those for Genesis... Grand Finals chairs?!

Even though it's a sonic player, that was poor sportsmanship. Have some humility.

To say he’s the best as the nr. 15 player is so funny and takes so much balls. I love this kind of humor, in which you’re well aware that you’re in no position to act like this, but you’ll do it nonetheless.

Did mkleo not do genesis this year?

If Zomba gets another post-Japan buff at GOML, it starts being a little suspicious lol.

Dude actually did it holy

Zombas been slept on for too long. I'm so happy for him.

Can someone pleas explain the whole “license” thing please lmfao

is R.O.B. the answer to Sonic?

Zomba talking shit and backing it up is great entertainment, keep playing the heel Zomba 🫡

BIG shoutout to Zomba for dominating the competition. I honestly kinda of slept on him 😅.

ロボットはスティーブ並の安定した成績のあるキャラだからね…使い手以外弱い要素ない

god this game is fucking cooked

We needed this. Chars like ROB and Sonic are the answers to DLC privilege.

NEWWWW YORK IN THE BUILDING GAHHHH

Genesis is bringing out the best in these top players

Zomba's really good when piloting a top 5 character but he's such a smug asshole it's hard to give a shit whenever he wins

"I am now licensed”

“I wanna prove I’m the best in the world. I’m better than yall Ggs” Leo, Spargo, and Acola have all said that then went on to lose their next tournament. I’ll believe it when I see it. Btw bro is so toxic. Next leffen in the making.

Watching Sonix play has got to be the most dreadful thing on this planet

I was happy until he starts speaking

Ese ego de zomba, que estrés

literally in all of top four the better player lost really sad

The song pls

ZomGOD definitely earned this W

53:34 Zomba: 🤫 shut up i'm mewing

Zomba a villain and we love it

When a cringe character gets smacked in the face and loses

Sonix was going crazy first set!

MY GOATTT

Well deserved tournament win.

Always a great day when Sonix loses

The way zomba was playing I don’t think even acola would have been safe from getting defeated by him. But it’s hard to say that would be an anticipated match for me but I’m not sure. I would assume acola wins that match but then again maybe not. This games genesis proves that the games meta is very volatile. With players losing to people you would not expect or characters losing to each other because the matchup is not good. It makes acolas consistency impressive but to be fair he is the world’s best Steve so it’s not that hard for him to do. I think acola deserves the number one spot because he’s good but Sonix and spargo plant a seed in my head that acola is not the undisputed best player and zomba lost at umabora 10 before he could fight him so. There also the fact that the last time both acola and zomba fought each other was around 2022 I believe. Since then both players have leveled up immensely since that year and mkleo won a genesis in that year I think and he was still the number one player back than. The reason why I think zomba would lose to acola is because rob does badly against Mr game and watch and has never defeated Miya while acola can still consistently beat him. However at umabora 10 acola was not that confident about winning that tournament and even popped off against Miya even in grands. Which gives me the impression that acola has confidence issues about his rank and he knows that he could lose it to other players. At umabora an announcer said he was nervous about fighting a mewtwo in pools even though he 3-0 him like everyone else. While zomba was confident that he could beat anyone even as the 15 best player. Somehow I could give both acola and zomba the w against each other because acola never underestimates his opponents so he is a humble person by nature while zomba could beat him because he’s prideful. The announcers pointed out that zomba and Sonix have similar egos and Sonix destroyed acola at port priority 8. My prediction for acola is that if he does not have complete faith in his Steve or his ability to win game 5 than he could lose his rank to either spargo or Sonix most likely to Sonix due to his consistency as a player and the fact that sonic is a broken character. In conclusion the meta game of Utimate is no longer dominated by a handful of players now it’s dominated by many players and even the four horseman can not let their guard down when it comes to p tier tournaments.

Was Steve banned from this event? I don't think I see him anywhere on the brackets or maybe I'm just blind.

thank god, sonix really does play like a nasal dripper

My congratulations to Sonix, it is really very difficult to beat a flying character like that robot, I think his ability to fly is exaggerated, and to make matters worse the robot is heavy, meaning it is not easy to take him off the map.
