But Zain was able to play well enough to bring that out of him just like mango did to Zain at summit 11. If you go back and watch their winners set tho you can see so clearly jmook played nowhere near as well punish wise in this set.

      ​@@bobbykite8705I would argue it has and has subverted into a genre that I call a melee-like, where the movement is similar while having its own unique mechanics they exist but it's just that not enough people are playing them. Rivals of aether, Nickelodeon all stars brawl 2, and combo devils are some games that play just as well as melee with their own twist, The issue is that these games don't have the Nintendo IP to be popular enough to have players that will expand the meta, and the people that would appeal to the most (melee players) have the mentality of "this is fun, but why would I play this when I can just play melee a game that I put thousands of hours into and already enjoy enough without having to play a different game?" you have these really good deep games, but with very small fan bases due to this

      That is, until Jmook took her to the next level by beating Zain twice in two separate majors, the second time with the final set against Zain, beating him twice on FD, and thus winning the whole thing. So yeah, there's a rivalry here, even if it doesn't have any toxicity to it.

    Zain's now ahead of Leffen in major wins, and he looks to stay ahead for a while since Leffen's not competing this year. Jmook looked really sharp but Zain had the answers. It's nice to see that Zain has won multiple majors after losers runs. That was the biggest missing piece for him for so long. Of the people who have won multiple majors, Leffen still hasn't won from losers. Has aMSa? Maybe Plup has? (Not counting events like Genesis 5, where Plup lost the first set of grands but won the second.)

      Of the active major winners, only five have won from losers: Mango, Hungrybox, Zain, Cody, and Jmook. What's even crazier is that those last three players only joined the club last year, and we've already seen three runs each from Cody and Zain!

      @@TheRealOmniscient I think it would help if they picked commentators who actually main or know a lot about the matches they are scheduled to watch. For example, Blur and Toph would have probably been more qualified for this match. However, any one of the melee commentators have shown they can really get off topic for long periods of time. I also don't know why they keep adding Hugs. That guy doesn't know anything about anything. lol I'm not even confident he could commentate a top level Samus match with any real insight.

    Do you think harming animals is wrong?
    If so, meat, dairy, and eggs cause animals to suffer.
