I feel like they should implement a increasing timer as the rounds go on. So the first round would favour consistency and then it will naturally create escalation with increasingly complicated combos during the later rounds.

I think they wanted to give room to see better stuff as well especially since it was 1st round. Yes it was great, but a lower yet fair rating pushes for things to be greater!
Falcon is the easiest character to use (arguable, but at least 2nd easiest behind Kirby) and Falcon is one of the easiest characters to combo because of his weight. So it's not surprising the 64-familiar judges weren't impressed enough for a 10

How did boom, who'd suppose to be the most critical judge, give prince an 8 for two failed combos but also give an 8 to the other dude for a perfect combo on the second try?
He got hit with that controversy for his trip to North Korea where he taught Kim Jong Un how to combo and the US government got mad. Maybe he'll be back next year when people forget about it.

I kinda wish they could prepare a (possibly tool assisted) demo of what all the combos were supposed to look like after the contest is over, or compile all of the completed combo videos from the competitors' social media pages in post production and incorporate it into the final video
I think 3 of those judges were wrong to give ssb64kysk only a 9 on his first combo. First attempt, fast pace, combo did not reset to 1, and FALCON punch. The commentators were right to criticize those 3 judges for not giving kysk a 10. If that was Prince he would have gotten all 11s. 2020/2021 Edit: The commentators even call out about judges’ bias for Prince and even said he is more likely to get 10s since its Prince. Furthermore, Prince got 7s and 8s for not completing combos.
Agreed, that combo was ridiculous. Especially after the commentators were talking about how combos are getting too complex to pull off within the time frame, and then he proceeds to have two (basically) first try combos
I love watching boom's reactions. hbox and esam are very over-the-top with reacting to big combos, but boom just looks very critical of everything and then he'll give a big smile. you see that smile and you know that combo was lit check 55:20 for example
KYSK showed a unique return to the fundamentals that used to define the combo contest. We've become so absorbed into increasingly complex and nearly unviable combos that every other competitor came in with something that just couldnt be replicated on stage. They expected that someone at least would be able to finish their overcomplicated combo and set the bar too high for them to win if they went for a simpler combo. The meta has shifted, you need consistent combos.
I watch Supersmashcon for the melee singles and ultimate singles. But this is by far my favorite event at SSC.The melee tournament is common place while these combo contests are not and I look forward to them every year. I really hope they extend the run times.
This is so frustrating to watch, they need to sit every player down at the same time on their own monitors and give them 10 minutes, at the end of the 10 minutes they show the best completed combo for each player and judge, then on to the next round..... This frustrates me so much watching this
watching boom go from no emotion... to smirk. to full smile. to nodding his head like that was fire.... my favorite thing lmfao. all of the judges honestly made it so much more fun to watch.. watching their reactions is great. but boom is so like.. impress me peasant lol. so watching him going from where is this going.. to I see what your doing.. to didn't see that coming. to OMFG.. is awesome haha. but s/o to everyone who participated in the contest. always awesome to watch.
Again this year, judges scored unfinished combos far too leniently. They need to be harsher. I love Prince as much as the next guy but the fact an unfinished combo can score an 8/10 is just stupid. I'd even go so far as to suggest that a score cap on unfinished combos could be an interesting idea. For example, if you don't finish your combo then judges can't score you higher than a 6. This years tournament was definitely a bit flat compared to others simply because so many people entered unfinished combos. Arnold Zhang's suggestion of giving the later rounds more time I think is a good idea as well.
Prince's combos are so far the craziest things ever seen. Even when failing he shows glitches and sometimes aggressive combos that make a lot of people pop off. As far as I love the other entries, they don't have *that* crazy element in it. It's seen and seen again, so there's no surprise they give Prince's tries high scores even when unfinished. I feel like the only reason why KYSK went further this year was because he first tried the combos. They were fun to watch, but again, no crazy elements in it. This year combo contest was meh in my opinion. Everyone's sad that Prince didn't succeed to make the combos out
In the first try Zebes lava combo he uses the fan to slow down the dummy from his upward momentum by dropping it right in its trajectory, causing him to drop exactly on the platform, in the falcon punch line. Pretty sick actually.
Each judge needs a specific thing they grade so these combos can be graded fairly. That way there’s no biased opinions on a player, but instead, their combo. Style/Creativity 1-10, keeping the count of a combo/number of hits 1-10, difficulty/items/setup 1-10, attempts until made 1-10, and lastly, maybe hype/excitement/pop off of crowd or something like that 1-10. This would definitely help when someone either doesn’t get close to finishing their combo, gets almost all the way through their combo, or completes it in its entirety. You might get a good grade on creativity, even though you didn’t complete it. Maybe you completed it and dropped the combo. In my opinion, there should be one person grading each of those aspects. Hopefully they get to that point some day soon. Maybe this year in 2020?
Hearing these old sound effects reminds me of being a kid after school and just fucking around on this game for literal hours. I appreciate the fuck out of this.
I feel like they should implement a increasing timer as the rounds go on. So the first round would favour consistency and then it will naturally create escalation with increasingly complicated combos during the later rounds.

D1 should always be part of the Combo contest.
His reaction are far too good to not include.
Aged like milk
ESAM was definitely the one that organized the 69 420, because he was holding up a 0 to show that it would be possible.
the guy in the middle gave prince a 8 for a non completed combo but gave kysk an 8 for a completed combo.
I have been rewatching this annually. Covid sucks
Each judge needs a specific thing they grade so these combos can be graded fairly. That way there’s no biased opinions on a player, but instead, their combo.
Style/Creativity 1-10,
keeping the count of a combo/number of hits 1-10,
difficulty/items/setup 1-10,
attempts until made 1-10,
and lastly, maybe hype/excitement/pop off of crowd or something like that 1-10.
This would definitely help when someone either doesn’t get close to finishing their combo, gets almost all the way through their combo, or completes it in its entirety. You might get a good grade on creativity, even though you didn’t complete it. Maybe you completed it and dropped the combo. In my opinion, there should be one person grading each of those aspects. Hopefully they get to that point some day soon. Maybe this year in 2020?
The Smash Olympic!!!
Hearing these old sound effects reminds me of being a kid after school and just fucking around on this game for literal hours. I appreciate the fuck out of this.

The best combo. I absolutely love the reactions from the judges and commentators. KYSK is truly a legend
