As a Mega Man main, seeing this resurgence of Mega Man with Peabnut and MPg doing well and even Trim getting 5th at VCA a while back has me very happy. It’s always nice to have some character variety and diversity in this game!
as a mega man hater… it is kinda cool. it’s hard to dislike mega man mains cause they’re all kinda hype, but goddamn that move kit frustrates me. especially when the person wants to frustrate you
@@hieuduong2213 Kameme still plays Mega Man sometimes against Snake and whenever he doubts his Sora (like vs Light at Glitch Regen). And his Sora is still pretty fun to watch. So this is fine, and at least we have others to carry on his legacy.
@@smh3920 Yeah that comment was before I learned of everything that happened. Also, Leo did plan to go initially. He and L4st mentioned that they were both going to Umebura a few weeks ago in stream.
Zomba isn’t the hero we wanted but the hero we needed. He was so close to qualifying for the panda cup events a lot of the times. Apex 2022 wasn’t a major tbh. And saying that the smash weekend is calm before the championship ain’t correct. There’s winner! Next #1 sumabato sp 32 and seibugeki 12 the upcoming weekends.
I find Comona and Last mentioning that they both sound different is hilarious. When I first heard them it took a video or two for me to notice tbh (Sorry LOL)
Not mentioned in the video is that Jakal's 5 game win against MPg was also a reverse 3-0 comeback where Jakal opened up game 5 with a 0-death. His losers run at Apex was absolutely insane.
I hope Luugi and Crêpe Salee will start travelling. Crêpe Salee is 14 so he won't but I would love to see him go overseas in a few years. That kid is insane....3-0 vs Chag and Palutena is said to be bad for Wario. He also took Sisqui and Fatality to game 5
5:10 we're seeing a renaissance of top level character variety and it's awesome, it feels like most people play unique characters even in the era of Steve and Kazuya
"Rageeena" 😂 I actually grew up in Regina, and the usual saying is "the city that rhymes with fun". I would have loved to travel back home to see Riddles take that win
Although the Panda Cup Finale seems interesting I think the lack of International representation (Japan & Europe) makes it a little bit underwhelming compared to the SWT. This feels in my opinion more like a very stacked NA invitational rather than a End-Season Final. Still I think will be a great tournament and looking up for it, though.
Can't wait to see the next PGStats video. Hopefully it will explain why Smash World Tour got canceled and why most of the top talent has decided to boycott Panda. :) Next Tuesday, you say? Calm before the storm indeed.
It was funny watching the back and forth between people giving different old tournaments registration for swt after it ended solely to give Kept, Jakal and Sriks more points. A clause in the SWT ruleset stopped this tho but it's interesting thinking about what could have been

The kid is super young right now so I'm excited to see where he goes in the future. He has a lot of potential and shows what Luigi is capable of

Well you definitely got a storm coming 😅

What happened to Repo
Title was a little too accurate
This video turned out to be surprisingly aptly named.
2:09 did not age well
Can’t tell if this title aged like milk or wine
Both
this video is so eerie now
I friggin love the whole subplot of East (Japan) vs West (NA/EU) lol it's awesome seeing them "invade" and us trying to defend our territory.
They've already conquered Europe and most of NA
I would love to see the reverse as well!
@@ibrahimbeats MKLeo, Dabuz, Riddles, Kola and Hbox are in the upcoming Umebura's (Jan 7-8) attendees list. I'm so excited!

well it does qualify as a major but i know what you mean. this tournament was like 1/50th as stacked as ludwigs
I'd classify it as a major, personally, but it certainly on the edge considering the relative lack of top players
It's one of those tournaments that are "not really a major major but still a major" kinda like riptide
So Moist has 3 of his 4 players in the Panda Cup, that's sick
if only gob beat anathema, sadge
(no disrespect to Steven btw gob was just in my dream qualified for DhAtlanta)
moky hasnt qualified so only 3/5 if u include melee
@@testsubject7881 turns out he got invited by panelists so goblin really is the only one missing
Oh it was a storm alright
If Zomba didn’t get the vote in you guys would have never heard the end of it
I find Comona and Last mentioning that they both sound different is hilarious.
When I first heard them it took a video or two for me to notice tbh
(Sorry LOL)
Same here!😭
Mkleo vs Tweek
Hbox vs Mango
Zomba vs a Panda cup spot
Name a more iconic matchup
ESAM vs DQ
*Zomba vs a qualifier tournament*
Dark wizzy vs dq
Zomba definitely deserves that spot
Let’s go Prince if New York
its moments like 4:56 that really make me appreciate the consistency and effectiveness of yalls editing
So sad for kept, i hope he wont start traveling less in the future because of this
Another special fact about Apex 2022. Local NJ Ike main "MNI" placed 65th after being seeded 336, with an SPR of +4!
Not mentioned in the video is that Jakal's 5 game win against MPg was also a reverse 3-0 comeback where Jakal opened up game 5 with a 0-death. His losers run at Apex was absolutely insane.
I've loved luugi ever since i started attending UK events
"SMASH LEGEND" WTF I LOVE YOU GUYS IM CRYING cant wait for 2023!!! IL BE BACK!
I hope Luugi and Crêpe Salee will start travelling. Crêpe Salee is 14 so he won't but I would love to see him go overseas in a few years. That kid is insane....3-0 vs Chag and Palutena is said to be bad for Wario. He also took Sisqui and Fatality to game 5
5:30 LeoN's most recent major top 8 was port priority 6, actually
I'm sorry. I can't watch this without almost dying everytime the narrator says Quandale Dinglelingleton's name out loud 🤣 🤣 🤣
Every time😂
5:10 we're seeing a renaissance of top level character variety and it's awesome, it feels like most people play unique characters even in the era of Steve and Kazuya
So happy for zomba, my man came in the reach for the spot like 4 time
Imma miss this channel
We still have turndownforwalt.
@@fupalover he only does melee
"Rageeena" 😂 I actually grew up in Regina, and the usual saying is "the city that rhymes with fun". I would have loved to travel back home to see Riddles take that win
Them acknowledging they sound “different” cracked me up 🤣🤣 love these vids ❤
Although the Panda Cup Finale seems interesting I think the lack of International representation (Japan & Europe) makes it a little bit underwhelming compared to the SWT. This feels in my opinion more like a very stacked NA invitational rather than a End-Season Final.
Still I think will be a great tournament and looking up for it, though.
Luugi is stupid underrated. He’s repping all of us Luigi mashers up in the the top levels of play.
Hes been under the radar for some time but this tourney he took will cement him as a threat in the future
They're also repping the region of East England
Cam on luugi! Take some fackin stocks!
Can't wait to see the next PGStats video. Hopefully it will explain why Smash World Tour got canceled and why most of the top talent has decided to boycott Panda. :) Next Tuesday, you say? Calm before the storm indeed.
12:04 NO YALL DIDNT!! Is that an indirect shoutout when i said that shit on Twitter?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
5:34 As someone from New Jersey,
yeah
As a Canadian, the short geography section was funny, but probably necessary. Props!
Dingleingleton: I cannot stop laughing at this name. Genius!
Zomba actually got in lmao
So we are finally going to acknowledge that Komona and L4st are the same person…

Bloom was Seed 1
Congrats to zomba getting voted in. My god he deserves it lol so unlucky
One small detail you failed to mention about Crêpe salée explaining why he didn't travel much : he is 14 years old
Boys we finally got the narrator to pronounce Smashmate correctly.
Great coverage the only thing I would have loved you to include is the information that crepe salee is only 14 years old! He will be rising fast
This whole time I thought Last and Kamona (not sure if I spelled it right) were the same person and the mic set up was different.
Kola got voted in let’s go!!!
I don’t think T stopped play competitively. He still is but that much
really hope something like this will be back.
It's true, the East and the West for Canada rarely meet. Maybe once a year.
big props to Zomba for being the anti-qualifier in tournies, all jokes aside i'm stoked to watch him play
Best announcer in PGstats, I LOL listening all the time
Panda cup finale line up looks absolutely perfect
Yeah Mr. R dropped Chrom because he’s literally unviable at top level Chrom still high tier tho I promise
9:08 Bruh i love this channel
as someone from Saskatchewan who plays smash, shoutout to saskatchewan. Ps Regina is the city that rhymes with fun and not Regina like the name :)
If anyone hasn't seen Miya vs. Acola in Sumabato29, you should!
quality work every video. comments for the algorithm if nothing else.
Low key I think top level mega man is kinda hype so it’s great to see mega man make an appearance
Mega man stonks have been going up recently
And I’m sure they’ll continue to go up. Or, at least I hope they do.
"Like a ghost pepper at a white man's barbeque...." that's... dang man.... nice job.
NO WAY L4ST AND KOMONA ARE DIFFERENT PEOPLE I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS JUST L4ST
9:22 I appreciate that WaDi callout.
I ate a ghost pepper thirty minutes before this video came out and at the whitest possible event to Friendsgiving
Very sad to see kempt out.
biggest twist is that the first half of the video wasnt last lol
13:26 ayo LETS GO IGREG
Was nightmare on smashville not a major? Maister won that
MPg is so sick
I was at the Regina tournament, it was so good.
Isn't Crêpe Salée like 14 years old?
So THAT'S why people were saying "rip kept" in twitch chat
Why did the top 3 seeds DQ? Realized they wanted a few weeks off before SWT Finals?
I think megaman is finally gonna get its uprise
Punch Out music at the start? I dig it.
december is stacked asf
Bro, Anathema wearing a twenty one pilots shirt was so funny.
What's going on with elegant? Really haven't seen anything about him since that dq for alchohol abuse
Ever since Elegant got banned, Im confident Luugi is the best Luigi player right now.

How do you not talk about suarez beating zomba
dabuz is a match up check and if anyone knows how to deal with his weird characters then he kinda falls flat
Riddles said on his channel he won 50 thousand dollars lol. whatda
No Suarez 3-1 over zomba upset mentioned?😊
tell us in the stats that gave zomba and kola the spots. like it would be cool
Im starting to feel like France might not be the best European country, and Instead the UK might actually be a stronger scene.
I feel like France is the most "active" (as in, hosts the most events and has the biggest playerbase) but not the strongest european country
no way i thought l4st and the other guy are diffrent people, i thought it was the same person LMAO
i love seeing pumbers cheese people with death combos (i dont) (rolls eyes)
Ghost pepper at a white man’s barbecue 😂
What about the Idaho regional?
15:15 Don't want to be THAT Canadian, but Regina is said as Vagina but with the Re instead of the Va.
Somebody told me that before I did the voiceover and I thought I was just getting Pranked
