This was the best set at Frostbite, showing that every character has a character weakness. Even if Shuton lost, he proved that Olimar could have a bad matchup
There's very clearly extreme matchup unfamiliarity on the part of Myran here, you can see in the very first game he literally has no idea what to do. Myran does figure things out as the set goes on, but he never figures out how to edgeguard Richter's terrible recovery, which would make the match look much more one-sided.

Back here again, being here in the crowd with my best friend made it one of the best days in my life. The dair and the whole set is still just insane, but man just imagine if shuton won this one
Before today, I was wondering if it was worth playing Richter when there weren't that many Belmont players out there, let alone ones placing well in majors. I know he didn't win, some of it was matchup inexperience, but thanks for restoring my faith Shuton.
"Japanese hero shuton saved smash ultimate." Translation: Japanese hero shuton saved the viewers. He lost. If he won.. I can see people going "why didn't he go Richter vs Leo."
@UtherSwagBringer He was SDing. This was the only big brain moment he did 15:28 Besides that he was just doing the usual Belmont stuff. Throwing projectiles, and keeping them at the ledge / off the level.
The most legendary fact is that Shuton actually said: "Olimar ditto is not fun to play or to watch" This guy literally gave up on the most logical choice in a goddamn tournament because it wasn't fun. I don't care if he lost, this guy is a hero.
I'm an olimar main and I'm not even gonna lie the first Olimar ditto was boring to watch, plus none of the audience or commentators seemed to know what was going on. And shuton's been my favorite japanese player since sm4sh so seeing him bust out the richter was crazy to watch
Pretty much the entire crowd was against Olimar as a character. Imo its like the puff of Ultimate. The amount of up throws to a kill confirm at Frostbite was tilting to watch
@@anthonyquitos7999 its kinda annoying being an olimar main and learning his intricacies then being hated upon by everyone for everything. Even my friends dislike me even playing olimar
@@slater2932 I don't even know who they are, you got evidence for those claims? Also what I said doesn't rely on them being good people. They did a great job commentating. Anyway, who are they? Obviously I'll avoid them in the future if they're pedos.

@@curziomalaparte3008 Didn't he do it too late though? It looks like the Down B starts after the holy water + up smash already misses. Shuton looks like he's trying to do a combo/setup here that just doesn't work on small characters. He wants to roll so they can't DI out of the fire and then smash their hitbox doing a DI into him, but Olimar is basically newborn baby sized so it just misses. Or it was a missed input because honestly the Belmonts don't hit people at that angle from the ground if they're aiming upward too well.
@@JusRed48 Holy Water to Up-Smash isn't a thing I've ever heard of. I've never seen a Belmont go for it intentionally. Up-Smash is best used after hitting opponent with returning cross to confirm, or as a hard read. As far as I know the Holy Water doesn't raise your opponent high enough to even connect an Up-Smash. Not to mention that no one in their right mind is going to sit there and just take that without at least attempting to DI out of that potential combo.
This was the most hype set of the tourney for sure! Shu just demolished Myran in game 1, and I think he would've won the set quickly if not for the SD's in game 2. But at least we got to see the 200 IQ downair at 15:27
If Shuton played richter more he could’ve taken the last game. 16:58 he goes for an Up Smash outta the holy water but up smash has virtually no hitbox on the ground. A spaced F smash would’ve been curtains for Myran. So hype watching this
He accidentally rolled into the holy water and was right on top of olimar. Backin out and spacing F smash would take too much time. He plays enough Richter to know but just had a brainfart I bet.
@@reisondominguez9919 I dont hate the character, I used to main him in fact. BUt it seems the consensus with oli is that he is boring to watch, I guess its that his moves arent that flashy
at least he did more than 3 moves Pac man and olimar take some serious thought to play Pac man can take 3 moves to set up 1 attack and you have to have the muscle memory on point if you want to execute properly
15:28 The reason you came for.
Exactly
Biggest of brains Shuton
I wontvm lie.. . Thats the truth
Not all heroes wear capes.
I came for richter
shame he lost because that Pikmin kick play was godlike
This is why I like ultimate, even tho the two characters were zoners the match was so fast paced and entertaining

This game is pretty fluid. But fluid crap is still crap.
This set alone is worthy of 2 highlight videos, one for "Top 10 hypest character switches from top players" and one for "Top 10 recoveries" (15:28)

@@miltonromero7430 Yep.
@@DarkAura19 Nice to see other people playing the starforce games and not just me lol
No matchup experience? Shuton was an Olimar main in Smash 4
He meant that it was match up inexperience for myran, not shuton. And shuton is still a olimar main btw.
15:28 that was super situational and to think that Shunton might have thought of that on the spot is mind blowing
Nobody wanted to see Olimar dittos, god bless he switched to Richter
Actually this is because Olimar's worst ennemie is himself cause Olimar himself don't have matchup it's the Olimar main who make and have.

Easily the hypest set throughout the entire tournament
Hmmm I dont know man, the game 5 of Light vs MVD was hype as hell too
idk man, tea/lea vs tweek/marss was a bit stressful
sorta like tsu vs salem stressful
the most hype set i’ve ever seen live
This game was so exciting! Good play for Shuton with Richter.

Richter really is the people's Olimar.
That's the most hype match I've ever watched. Massively rooting for Shuton after that galaxy-brain recovery, but a great set all up!
16:58 is a real shame. It looks like he did up tilt or up smash but it just doesn't hit at that angle.

People say Belmonts are lame, but I just love watching the way Shutons Richter edge guards - one of my favourite players
Damn. This is legendary
Don’t get me wrong that Pikmin kick was great but I have to give Myran props for using the down b to stall shuton’s smash attack at the end
Paps true
"He angled it downward?!!??!?!!?"
While you were studying in school, he was studying the chain
One of the best matches of the tournament
Dude that Game 1 was so freakin’ hype!
This was the most hype set of the tourney for sure! Shu just demolished Myran in game 1, and I think he would've won the set quickly if not for the SD's in game 2. But at least we got to see the 200 IQ downair at 15:27
Shuton had it at the end, that was some wacky hit box for the up smash...
It was actually myran doing a down b. For about 3-5 frames Olimar’s down B has super armor and just absorbs the hit without knock back
If Shuton played richter more he could’ve taken the last game. 16:58 he goes for an Up Smash outta the holy water but up smash has virtually no hitbox on the ground. A spaced F smash would’ve been curtains for Myran.
So hype watching this
Or he could've up B
He accidentally rolled into the holy water and was right on top of olimar. Backin out and spacing F smash would take too much time. He plays enough Richter to know but just had a brainfart I bet.
I bet he just hit the c stick up because of Olimar habits
HE COULD'VE FSMASHED:(

This match is so good that not even the commentators can ruin the moment.
Such a shame. I'm pretty sure a tipper F-Smash out of the holy water at 16:58 would've killed olimar at max rage ;_;. Great play by both.
Ikr; not sure why he stay so close, it's the basics!! After all that Masterclass =/
still, what a match, wow =)
the Belmonts arent bad they just are spammed online and that isnt how to play them clearly
Whoever is in the white sweatshirt in Myran’s player cam when the Pikman dair happened…so funny.
😡
Best Smash Ultimate match I've ever seen!
16:56 Noooo!! Shuton could've possibly won if he didn't foward roll there and instead f-smashed him after landing the holy water.
Greatest ultimate set so far? So insane.
My god, man just had to f-smash at the end and he won! Hard to imagine that roll was on purpose. What a set!
The f smash would not have killed
The best damn match of the tournament

He up smashed but richters hit box around him during up smash is non existent

途中までずっとピクミンがシュートンだと思って見てしまった

勝利まであと一歩だったのが本当に悔やまれる…
Bro the ending was so heartbreaking. He had the holy water and just needed to f smash to win :(
at least he did more than 3 moves
Pac man and olimar take some serious thought to play
Pac man can take 3 moves to set up 1 attack and you have to have the muscle memory on point if you want to execute properly
I wish the match went the other way man. All he needed was a forward smash instead of a roll when that fire connected. Sucks.
