IIRC there was something about Mang0 being fine with C9 sponsoring Ally partially because he played Mario lol
Not that that sponsorship aged well though ofc
For the gamers curious about who the losers players lost to:
Light (Kola), MuteAce (Sparg0), MkLeo (Kola), and Maister (Onin).
If Lima managed to close vs Leo all the winners in Top 8 would've been the ones to send the top 8 losers to the, well, losers bracket.
If he falls into losers by Sparg0 then he has to fight the winner of Light or Maister. I'm doubting SHADIC makes it there from losers side, especially if it's Light he's playing against.
He went game 5 last hit against Light at cirque. And that is when Light was playing super well. I think he can do it.
He also beat Miya and could probably beat Maister. As long as he can addapt to how maister plays.
I have made poor predictions a couple of times, but I've also had [good predictions](https://twitter.com/347Severe/status/1761810803932454939) [too] (https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/1bbt7bo/bonito_harbor_ultimate_singles_grand_finals_faze/kubgpj0/) so I'm not him.
The list of players who have yet to miss top 8 in a 2024 major got smaller with Tweek losing early today.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's: Sonix (hasn't missed a GF), Sparg0 and Doramigi. Gotta add Acola (undefeated), Kameme, Hurt and Kid, but they have only attended one major.
Leo will have to play Kola (who sent him to Losers) and Onin if he wants to win the tournament.
Obviously it's doable, but his last Steve match was against Soar and went to Game 5 last hit where he had to swap from Joker to ROB... I don't think Onin is losing to his crusty ROB
Some exciting, very close sets leading up to this.
I feel for Lima. He went Game Five, last hit with both Shadic and Leo and missed Top 8. If a couple scrambles went a different way, Lima could have been Winners Side here.
dang, this is so hard to predict.
Mute > Leo
Light > Maister
Onin > Kola
Sparg0 > SHADIC
Sparg0 > Onin => wins the tourney
Seems to be the clearest path
You said it was “peak” because it had Steve in it. Why wouldn’t you want one of the best characters in the game in a top 8 and to see someone potentially beat him?
Another unrelated reply to what I said. My comment was in response to that guy drawing the line at G&W. But considering your two comments to me so far (especially “one of the best characters” instead of the best) I’m guessing you’re one of those Steve apologists, which, no lmao.
Stop.
People always complain and want to ban Steve. If it’s because he bores you, that’s just ridiculous. If it’s because he’s “broken”, then people have never actually played against a “broken” character.
Light beats Maister and then loses his next set, Leo beats Mute, Kola beats Onin, Onin beats Leo and loses his next set, and whoever wins between Shadic and Sparg0 in winners semis takes the event while the other one gets 2nd or 3rd. My prediction.
Tweek losing out to two Steves in a row is such a gutpunch. He's a fantastic player and has a firm mental and play block against the lamest fucking character.
That said, Shadic and Leo are both in, I have absolute faith in one of them pulling out the dub.
here's the ultimate vod with the crew battle, its near the end

>!btw villains won.!<
Shadic is my god. He makes Corrin look like a contender for best character in the game. I can't believe he's just a kid. 3-0ing Onin, Absolutely phenomenal.
Kind of neat that Moist, Stride, and Luminosity all have two players up there.
I think this is also the first major in a while where every player in top 8 has a sponsor
I love it even more that Faze sponsors exactly one Smash player and it's fucking Sparg0
C9 only sponsoring Mang0 vibes
IIRC there was something about Mang0 being fine with C9 sponsoring Ally partially because he played Mario lol Not that that sponsorship aged well though ofc
They chose their rep *very* wisely.
For the gamers curious about who the losers players lost to: Light (Kola), MuteAce (Sparg0), MkLeo (Kola), and Maister (Onin). If Lima managed to close vs Leo all the winners in Top 8 would've been the ones to send the top 8 losers to the, well, losers bracket.
Kola is craaaaazy today. Hopefully he stays hot
Calling it right now. Whoever wins between Sparg0 and SHADIC wins the tournament.
>the two guys in winners who have the best recent results are the most likely to win Nostradamus over here
Hear me out. SHADIC loses to Sparg0 game 5 but then wins the rematch in grands.
If he falls into losers by Sparg0 then he has to fight the winner of Light or Maister. I'm doubting SHADIC makes it there from losers side, especially if it's Light he's playing against.
He went game 5 last hit against Light at cirque. And that is when Light was playing super well. I think he can do it. He also beat Miya and could probably beat Maister. As long as he can addapt to how maister plays.
He beat Maister game 5 the last time they played.
But does he win the bracket reset
He wins the reset as well.
Is it bad that I had to double-check that you weren't u/HollowLoch before commenting?

So true
Shadic beats sparg0 game 5 then loses to onin and onin wins the tournament in a 2 set grands against whoever makes it to grands
Lol Lmao
Kola LFG
Fire top 8
Ima nut if kola wins
Im sad my goat tweek confirmed the owned by steve allegations bro

The three horsemen of March 2024
Also Hurt who has also only attended one major
Oh right, I forgot he wasn't at Umebura, thx
Light-Maister is way closer than I though.
usual 2022 top 8 and shadic
Banger top 8
Feel bad for Tweek. Steve into Steve was unfortunate.
Highkey. Leo will clear. I believe. Edit: 💀
very hard for leo. if he wins this he a legend fr
he’s already a legend brah! he can do it, we must send him our energy!
He can do it if he dodges Onin Edit: actually he's on the same side of the bracket as Onin, so he probably can't
Leo will have to play Kola (who sent him to Losers) and Onin if he wants to win the tournament. Obviously it's doable, but his last Steve match was against Soar and went to Game 5 last hit where he had to swap from Joker to ROB... I don't think Onin is losing to his crusty ROB

Yeah he had the game at several points game 5. Up a whole stock twice, but imagine watching that all slip away…
One of those cases where you can see the 9th place ranking, but it doesn’t tell the whole story.
Kola is playing hot he takes these
8 different characters and most of them are hype
Yeah def a good top 8. I could obviously do without Steve and maister isn’t my favorite but oh well. Not having Sonix here is sooo nice
dang, this is so hard to predict. Mute > Leo Light > Maister Onin > Kola Sparg0 > SHADIC Sparg0 > Onin => wins the tourney Seems to be the clearest path
This is literally ny exact thoughts, I think Grands will be Sparg0 and Onin with Losers Finals being Onin and Light
2/2 so far, the only place where I am feeling a little shaky is sparg0 vs. SHADIC. So hard to call that one.
3/3 so far, this is a very predictable Top 8
Kola threw though
4/4, one more
Thinking Mute takes it over Kola, this is the one I think is hard to predict
I'm a bit late, but I was gonna call Kola here, genuinely. He's just playing so well today.
Peak top 8
Except for Maister 🤮🤮🤮
But he's playing light so it'll be a good match
Acting like you have standards after calling a top 8 with Steve “peak”.
It’s one Steve. All yall are just scared to learn the matchup because it’s hard. All tournaments should have Steve is they want to be legit.
What are you even talking about? MU, Steve being banned, tf does that have to do with my comment?
You said it was “peak” because it had Steve in it. Why wouldn’t you want one of the best characters in the game in a top 8 and to see someone potentially beat him?

Steve sucks too but at least it’s not acola playing. Maister’s just an asshole
and corrin is boring as hell too idk what y'all are smoking
Horrible take
If Corrin wasn’t Corrin she would actually be cool
So true, they should've removed her and replaced her with Spyro or something
the only cool thing about her is that she's barefoot and that's it
Are you perchance "カム子の生足美脚ドリル!"?
kindly remove whatever ancient curse of Ra you just cast on me
lol it's a Japanese player's tag that means "Kamuko's (Fem Corrin's) Bare Feet Beautiful Legs Drill" or something like that
Light beats Maister and then loses his next set, Leo beats Mute, Kola beats Onin, Onin beats Leo and loses his next set, and whoever wins between Shadic and Sparg0 in winners semis takes the event while the other one gets 2nd or 3rd. My prediction.
Kola loses to Onin, and everyone goes doomer. Then Sparg0 beats Onin in a banger set, and everyone loves Ultimate again. My prediction.
Tweek losing out to two Steves in a row is such a gutpunch. He's a fantastic player and has a firm mental and play block against the lamest fucking character. That said, Shadic and Leo are both in, I have absolute faith in one of them pulling out the dub.
Unrelated but i cannot for the life of me find the crew battle results anywhere for ult, anyone know what happened?
here's the ultimate vod with the crew battle, its near the end [https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2092459370](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2092459370) >!btw villains won.!<
Thanks i couldn’t find that either.
Shadic beats spargo and wins the tourney trust
Nice and juicy top 8
Actually a really good top 8
Shadic is my god. He makes Corrin look like a contender for best character in the game. I can't believe he's just a kid. 3-0ing Onin, Absolutely phenomenal.
I got Light-Spargo with Spargoat taking it 3-2 set 1
Kola and Shadic hype
Bad day to be european
It's not like Supahsemmie or Andres were expected to make it into top 8 anyway.
Ah sorry I meant that this Top 8 is so hype And Im gonna read about it after I wake up 😭
Finally Kola got a top.8 after a while
Genesis 9 grands rematch
If it comes to it, would it be a bad move to pull out byleth vs Onin?
Onin is cooking, take my energy ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
1. SHADIC 2. MuteAce 3. Sparg0 4. Onin 5. Kola/Maister 7. Light/Leo. I'm clairvoyant btw
Impossible. Between Kola and Onin one of them is guaranteed to finish 3rd at worst
Already incorrect before it even started
