Man I swear, it's almost impossible to have a boring set involving Leo. He always puts on a good show win or lose. Hopefully he returns to the top 10 this season
i feel like it helps that he's above camping and zoning for 20 minutes at a time. bro puts it all on the line and scraps - these FP2 scaredy cat zoney kids oughtta take a page
Holy shit, what a close game and easily one of my favs of the year. Leo played very well and this run, he was fire and everyone played amazing especially Zackray and Snow. Makes me excited for the future as seeing Spargo, Hurt, Snow, BeastmodePaul rise up is really good and I think despite Steve, Smash has been increasingly hype and I never got bored aside from sonix but hey, even he sometimes gets fast too.
@J242D it should be common sense this many years into this game to not check comments before watching the set. That’s mostly one you. Plus, this one doesn’t even really spoil results, just hypes the players and sets.
@@awesomemaker0357 can you read numnuts? **PREVIEW** comment spoilers. As in I didn’t actively try to read it it just popped up in my periphery. Also clearly they edited it since my comment
as a Leo fan, this one hurt more than the acola set, and it looked liked it did for him too. I see things coming back tho with the recent progress, I hope he goes to Japan more after this!
@@Arctyx_XoI VERY MUCH AGREEE! The only one who I could see stopping hom if he won this is Snow. I think if he cooks Miya defo, and If he gets past Snow, he probably wouldve lost set 1 to acola but he i think knowing him he wouldve also adapted. What a timeline it wouldve been. Regardless it was a great showing
@@Arctyx_Xo defooo! I only say acola cause he still beat Miya set 1 in grands and just seed 1 n all hahaha. But i agree also that it couldve been either of them! PS: I love the mini convo we startedd 🥹❤️❤️
judging by leo's reaction, he really wanted to win that. he seems hungry to win and that makes me very happy. He used to lose and not really care but it really seems his passion and thirst to win is back
You can go frame by frame with the , . keys and see the interaction. leo fell on snake with an aerial and joers legs were over snakes head due to jokers hurtbox shifting. Also, you cant exactly blame anybody but yourself when you choke a 130% lead last stock g5.
@@dingo9696 In fact, it is true that Leo fell with Joker's nair, which caused the blow to enter cleanly. You can clearly see it if you set the speed to 0.25.
It wouldn’t have hit if leo hadn’t went for a back air right there, if you slow it down you’ll see joker is about to do a back air but extends his hurtbox to get hit by snakes leg
He took Hurt and Acola to game 5, both sets could arguably have gone in Leo’s favor, it really feels like he lost simply because of what he did not do rather than what Hurt/Acola did. Leo definitely still got it, he’s figuring things out, and I’m sure is just a matter of time before he wins a P tier again
not entirely true. acola clearly did adapt as the set went on, particularly against those byleth nairs while hurt was able to weave around arsene and punish landings in that last stock. while he lost partially because of his plays, his opponents evidently answered back through adaptation.
I am really glad to see Leo still slugging it out with the best players of this generation. I think he’s still got some more wins in him, he’s playing really well right now!
I don't know man, the thing I take about this set is that Leo really FELT this loss. You can see at the end he really wanted this win. His passion for the game might be finally back. Let's see if he can do what Sparg0 did and totally dismantle Hurt the next time they play (probably at Cirque?)
Can anyone explain what happened at 3:58-3:59 with hurt and the grenade? How did he go from active holding it to dropping it with no shield or grab animation of any sort into an aerial?? Did I miss something?? bc you can't z-drop from active, at least not that I know of, ty
If leo had won this set, he might’ve won the tournament. He would modt likely met miya in winners finals, most likely won and witt luck miya woulda beat acola in losers finals. Or he would have 3 more games to work with if acola had made it to him in grands
leo and miya played a lot of friendlies at shuton's and they were pretty back and forth, though I believe miya won the majority. he could beat miya no doubt but it wouldn't be easy at all and I might even fair miya in their first encounter
broke my heart for that end of the set but nonetheless leo did some damn good at this tourney and whenever he gets runback vs hurt and acola again he's gonna cook even more
Hurt did so well in the matchup, Apollokage was struggling on Leos Joker a lot in Watch The Throne, seems like Hurt actually learnt a lot from Apollokages Watch The Throne match with Leo, both were so intense, both did so well, love those match ups.
Close one for Mkleo he never disappoints but hurt is definitely a formidable opponent gotta be careful he can clutch those, I think he just needs to know the mu and uses those grenades against him
Mkleo is quite familiar with the match up. He's beaten AK, MVD, and Alandiss more than once. Only lost once to AK and MVD. Hurt hurt just built different.
It just seems like Leo struggles to get kills at those high percents without a confirm or arsene stray hits. Overall he played the matchup pretty well considering it went game 5
@jeckup9943 snakes also just a hard matchup. You can see leo still isnt used to tracking c4 placement, rebel guarding grenade timings. And getting caught off guard by cooked grenades a lot.
It is because he can harm himself and kill himself with his own tools, which makes him very respectable by most people. He also has one of the worst comebacks with the cypher.
People forget Leo hates to play against Snake. This is one of the characters he hates playing against. If you are a relly good Snake, Pikiman, MinMin or Steve. Leo then has a lot of trouble. He struggles against those characters because he doesn't know the match ups that well. Even when he does he will still lose.
Poor Leo, he couldn't get some hits with Arsene on the last stock, that would give him the win!! Hurt was so high % there, yet he avoided everything and Uptilt like nothing,... Snake Utilt + rage is outrageous to say the least; i don't know the most absurd one: Steve's or Snake's
Smash game design is so poor. Why do so many zoning characters have fast boxing tools up close? Random moves had invincible frames for absolutely no reason also.
I think if Leo win this match , he could win this tournament. Leo can defeat miya definitely and defeat snow somehow. After that , he only wait the opponent who come to GF.😊
Glad to see Leo committing more and more to joker for the longest picking worse mus lots of byleth against Palu def crap tons of times. Think he gonna make top 10 soon enough again my boiii.
it makes me happy that leo can still keep up with the current gen of top 10 players, he's still got the fire
I don't know if being reversed 2-0 is following the step
@@Aix-333It definitely didn't look horrible for Snake with how easily Snake could take stocks while surviving above 150% himself
Man I swear, it's almost impossible to have a boring set involving Leo.
He always puts on a good show win or lose. Hopefully he returns to the top 10 this season
He might not be number 1 again, but nobody will ever be close to be the absolute GOAT as Leo is

0:36 He actually didn't get sticky'd. Hurt placed a C4 on the edge of the platform right when the game started and Leo didn't notice
Thank you! I could not find it.
Yeah, that C4 position was nasty. Right at the start of the set, and on the edge of the platform, which is also grey/black like C4 without the light
It feels good to see raw emotion from leo at the end, shows he still cares
He's beating himself up at the end of the set. Almost literally
It's JPLeo vs. MKLeo. Let's go. Universes Collide!
I thought jpleo is zackray
@@KerdekBleckI think he means that hurt kind of looks like Leo.
IRL ditto match is crazy
MKLeo comes from Mexican Killer Leo and JPLeo comes from japan...

You rarely see MKleo show emotion like that

3:15 seriously these casters be living under rocks, hurt literally beat tweek zomba and dabuz at smash con
“Hurt deserved that one” as the up tilt that hit him was facing the wrong way. Great set regardless

It’s snake up tilt. Everyone and their mother should know that the hitbox on that move is huge. Don’t know why people acted so surprised when it hit

Last hit so intense. I’m a snake main but I was rooting for Leo so bad .. hate to see the goat lose

def had to restart the match to spot when he did it. so subtle
21:23 That Deadass Did Not Hit!
It wouldn’t have hit if leo hadn’t went for a back air right there, if you slow it down you’ll see joker is about to do a back air but extends his hurtbox to get hit by snakes leg
Smash ultimate physics.
Kill screens are not an accurate measure in this game, you have to look at the frame right before it.

You can't say that when it was reversed 2-0 and 3-0 in both situations man
@Glansi-kq3cu if the opponent is in the position of having to reverse sweep in order to avoid losing I'd say it's a pretty competitive matchup lol

Second time in recorded history this matchup has ever been won by a Snake
My glorious king leo will come back from this with a burning passion and become a top 10 player once again

we will see
Soo glad MkLeo played passively this time, like I'm practically screaming in my head each time I watch a set for him to play passive.
If Leo won this match, I think he would have won the entire event. Much easier match ups were waiting for him in winners.
In another universe, Leo won this, beats Miya, etc, and wins tourney.
i feel like he'd lose to snow
@@nevohyamswith the way the byleth was playing against akio/acola, i think he has a good shot at winning against snow

but nonetheless leo did some damn good at this tourney and whenever he gets runback vs hurt and acola again he's gonna cook even more
I've been waiting for these two to play for forever 😤😪
in what world did that up tilt connect?
ビジュアル兄弟かよ
Hurt never fails to impress me...
Who’d win? Trained thief with a stand that has godlike abilities and magic and divine levels of strength? Or one comically oversized leg

I love Leo and always want him to see but seeing this good of a snake made me want him to win!! Glad he did !
Leo’s recovery were pretty impressive against the Nikita, congrats to hurt he did great!
Tbh im surprised snake is a character who never really receives any hate from the community despite 90% of the playstyle just being grenade spam
It is because he can harm himself and kill himself with his own tools, which makes him very respectable by most people. He also has one of the worst comebacks with the cypher.
nope. Snake gets mad hate, and he has the best recovery in the game. Hated Snake before maining him
Leoまじで惜しかった

why is leo playing against leo???
its rare... RARE that leo just starts to look shaken after a loss. He really wanted that win.
