It were two great weeks for the Smash Ultimate competition scene. For two weeks, the community organized the biggest and perhaps the biggest Super Smash Bros. tournament ever held. At the end of the day. Evo 2019 and Super Smash Con 2019 have exceeded my expectations. The high-level game brought a lot of excitement, drama and stories that were exciting to watch. Watching it live was a roller coaster ride with lots of ups and downs. I’m glad Tweek is going through the brackets to get a place in Evo’s grand finale and it broke my heart when I saw Zacrea’s emotional reaction after he lost a tight set to Leo.
Probably the biggest topic of discussion in both tournaments is who and how to stop Mcleo and his Joker. Leo’s victories in the Evo and Super Smash skirmishes reaffirm his title as the undisputed best player in Super Smash Bros. The final and dominant way in which he neutralizes his opponents raises the question of how difficult it is… …can someone stand up and challenge their opponent?
Leo’s losers run to Evo – he’s one of those who honestly see and tell the creation legend. After losing Camama in the first round, Leo broke the losers’ claws like crazy on a single bet. Master, Abadango, Zakrei, Wrighton, Samsora and Gluttony – all fantastic players and the best in the world – but no one could stop Leo.
As for the winners of the grand final, Leo waited with Tweek – the second best player in the world – for the last match, which was best suited for the biggest tournament of the year. Tweek seemed ready to win the Evo title because he needed the first two games and only one away game to win. On the brink of defeat something lit up in Leo’s stomach and he turned the page, changed his fate and defeated Tweek 3 times in a row to take off his brace. And then, in the spectacle of absolute domination, he wins a new start in an empty slate to lift the Evo Trophy.
Somehow it seems that history always has to repeat itself. Once again, Mcleo faced a tough challenge in the run-up to the Grand Final, when he joined the losing group in the Super Smash Con. After a nail in the losing district, defeating the explosive Marss and crossing the line in a hard-won fight with Tweek, Leo ended up in the big final against Samsora. Again, 2 games back and just before the defeat, Leo goes to the other level, rises as the phoenix from the ashes, demands 3 games to reset the support and then goes to the heartless bulldozer Samsora to win the championship.
The dominant discourse that circulates in society after Evo and Smash Con is whether the joker is broken and whether Leo is joking. Although in some respects I agree with the statement that the arsenic is too strong and that he has not been in the field for too long, Mcleo is not his character, in other words, he is at best hypocritical and at worst unfair. Even today, the life and legacy of the lion is not determined by a single character, but by his consistency and skill with the many characters on which he has built his reputation, and to assume that he is, in my opinion, a perfect waste. It is incredibly unfair to discredit its success because of its character as a choice. We must take credit where credit is due.
Despite the fact that I’m not a favorite player (this title goes to Tweek), I can’t help but admire the size. Mcleo is a champion and I know it. His control, execution, decision making, IQ game and especially his mental strength are the weakest at the moment. His pressure on the edge is unbeatable and his timing is a miracle. There’s no other wild card player near Leo. I like him, Manny Pacquiao. Occasionally he gets knocked down, but he always comes back, puts you in a corner and finds a way to win.
It will be exciting to follow the rest of the RMP season. Will Mcleo continue his line of domination? Or do we see the best players on stage? I think Twick has the ability to overthrow Leo, all he has to do is overcome the mental barriers. Same goes for Samsor. We haven’t seen the best yet and Mars has proven to be unsurpassed in its time. Perhaps the Lord of ZeRo can light his competitive fire and return to the stage with a vengeance… …can only be a dream.
