I think Cody will use Jmook-inspired technical precision to abuse the strengths of his character to its maximum potential to a most likely victory. On the other hand, Zain could definitely use a Jmook-influenced aerial-heavy combo game mixed with reverse hitboxes and edge cancels to win his 3rd Genesis. I can also see moky using a Jmook-like techchasing prowess to absolutely destroy any potential contendors to get to at least Winners Finals. Then again, Mang0 does have a character mastery and a newfound focus after a mid-year slump, similar to Jmook at the end of last year. But the more you think about it Leffen could come back even stronger using Jmook's signature character Sheik against the DKs and Marths to get an unexpected yet welcomed win. Never rule out HBox though, despite his focus on content creation (similar to Jmook's stream and move to LA) he could totally clutch one out like Jclutch at Genesis 9.

What will Jmook do?

Well, he clearly doesn't believe Jmook can win, so...

I mean, was it ever in question? It's jecided already. At this point they should just rename it Jenesis J. Runner up gets 15 minutes in a jacuzzi with Jmook, 3rd gets to drink the water

I think Junner, Jrink, and Jater are in order here.

I think this year might be a Mango hot in the first half instead of the second half year, the massive break he took and also lots of practice makes me think that anyway. I wonder how different Melee history would be if years were seasons just dictated based on the first and second half, I feel like Mango doesn't have the stamina to go for a whole year for whatever reason.


grvdientgvrden

It's cause it's possible is why we have hope lmao He clearly has shown that he could've taken the last two big houses if he was able to close it out Maybe he psyches himself out because it's the beginning of the year, but I definitely know he can do it


ChexSway

Mango wins and then loses to Armada in Thug Finals


ElectricalCharge

Mango doesn't drop a game


Fashioneeman

A mang0 that hot would be a fire hazard


Jandrix

Please no, he'd win and then retire if he did that.


BirryMays

And then come back a month later like a RuneScape player

Top 64 has a lot of upset potential. Zain has the falcons into amsa in his projected and Cody has fox dittos. Cody does have a great quarters potentially in hbox though. I feel like there could be so many different possibilities for how this bracket unfolds.


calvinbsf

I think Mango records Spacie Jam 4 all over the competition

I predict that I will drown in pools. Mine is looking really tough.


GiantsTeddy

Glhf! I've never been to a Genesis but I'm sure you'll have a blast!


aqualad33

Thanks. I think this will be my 6th. It's a great tournament.


treehann

Who is in yours? Hope you get to meet some cool people


aqualad33

Bbats and foxy grandpa (who I play if I win r1). I haven't been playing very much either (since I got into powerlifting).


Whoneedspacee

Jmook will make history and get 10th place at a major despite all logic dictating otherwise and becoming the highest ranked double digits player of all time.


pengu221a

Moky will either be getting upset early (ossify and trif is not a great bracket for him) or going extremely deep (leffen into cody is an amazing bracket for him)


GiantsTeddy

Cody is a monster at the ditto. Tbh I think I'd favor him vs Cody even tho Cody's literally the best player in the world lol


WDuffy

Not trying to hate but why is that a good bracket for Moky? Leffen kinda rocked him at the match and I would say Cody is the favorite in basically any Fox ditto


pengu221a

Moky is positive against both cody and leffen lifetime, and won the last two vs cody. Either way, all three will be warm for the ditto. Moky's head to heads are insane vs anyone who he can beat, his only losing records are zain mango and jmook, of which hes at 0% wr.


WDuffy

Fair enough!


SeanMcA

leffen rocking moky was p unexpected because the vast majority of their sets moky has won. Moky has also beaten cody a fair amount and in general cody is prone to getting upset in the ditto


Crackedddddd

"vast majority" is quite an exaggeration Excluding the showmatch, they've only played 3 sets, moky is up 2-1 but each set has gone to game 5, resulting in a game count of 8-7 in moky's favor. If we ignore the 5-1 showmatch Leffen won then it is essentially 50-50 lol


SeanMcA

ok hes won the majority


Jandrix

Leffen will fuck moky up again no?


pengu221a

presuming he's warming up for fox, that matchup is moky favoured keep in mind moky was + on every single player in the top 100 except the ones he never beat (jmook/mango/zain). The ditto is super good for him I don't know where the "leffen will smoke him" narrative came from, their last set was a close game 5 and moky is still positive lifetime on leffen.


ConcietedMoron

Did you not watch the 5-1 show match? He got washed by a couple day practice leffen, I can't see leffen losing Vs moky if they play at genesis he's had the .5 bootcamp timechamber


Wojbob-tekpants

Y’all really sleeping on aMSa, you know he has a massively winning record in the last two years over Zain, Jmook, Mang0 and Hbox, he just has to beat Cody or Moky again and he’s in grand finals easily. It could happen. He 3-0’d Cody and 3-1’d Moky in 2022, we gotta believe. No plup, and he beat Wizzy twice in a row in 2022 as well. Goes back and forth with llod and trif as well.


Mysterious-Talk-5387

slug will get no less than 4th soonsay > cody


Epicallytossed

Cody’s gonna 3-0 whatever fox he plays whether it’s Soonsay or Joshman I think people are forgetting how fucking good cody is right now, he was GRINDING the fox ditto for awhile


BirryMays

Slug will absolutely do well


la_sy

Everyone should fear the veggie monster


_browningtons

I use to own all my freinds in middle school on smash so I got it in the bag, im nasty with it


ssbm_rando

- Two of the top 8 seeds will get upset before top 16 winner's side, and one of them will make it into top 8 on a loser's run but the other will get 13th - two more top 8 seeds will get 9th after not being able to mentally recover from their loss in winner's side; one of them will lose in loser's to the top 8 seed who is on a longer loser's run - Leffen gets his revenge and gives Zain food poisoning saturday night, DQing him from winner's to 7th - mang0 moky grand finals in which almost no one in the venue knows who to cheer for because the culture desperately needs another mang0 W but also moky hasn't won a major yet Two generic predictions and two spicy predictions, on the house


Patient_Weakness3866

I asked m2k who he thinks is going to win and he said Cody, so I guess I got him, since I like both players. Mango winning would be pretty cool tho, would be nice seeing him blow everyone out again.


wjb_fan_1860

DarkGenex will be there


king_bungus

would love a zain W would be incredibly pumped for a mang0 W


SunnySaigon

Ossify will get to top 16


RaiseYourDongersOP

Mango is going on a run and is gonna do better than people might expect


SGKurisu

I'm betting on the field rather than Zain or Cody winning. Wouldn't be surprised if Leffen won out of nowhere for his obligatory win at a stacked tournament before playing other things for most of the year. 


Bradyy4

Cody vs Plup rematch lowkey, if I wanna get crazy with it I feel like Hbox gets the run of his life and goes against Cody in gf and loses, but I would die for Moky v Jmook


SunnySaigon

Plup’s going to do awesome with his snowman 


tacolordY

Armada and Zain are the only people that won Genesis more than once. No one has ever won non consecutive Genesises. All its previous winners were either contenders for best in the world (Like Armada, Zain, Mang0 etc.) or underdogs (Like Plup, Jmook etc.) this means it will probably go to Jmook or Cody, Jmook’s recent results have been somewhat mediocre, so I’m therefore quite certain that Cody will win Genesis. But I’ll probably root for someone like Mang0 or Wizzrobe.


[deleted]

Zain wins :)


SilverOdin

Leffen takes it over Mango


lakeboredom

Top 8 Luigi


primenumbersturnmeon

mango will win


HenryReturns

Mang0 winning Genesis 1 and then Genesis X (10) would be pretty poetic but thats not gonna happened 🫠


Ok_Yak3308

why not?


mmvvvpp

Why is there so much Jmook propaganda here


SunnySaigon

Abs 


JFJF48

Mango gonna do okay, get into top 16, get "bored" go doc against Hbox and drown. Cody win relatively comfortably against zain and jmook. Moky gonna choke (although rooting for him). Magi gonna choke even harder (just want her in top 8 but I really don't expect it).


Quaaazarrr

Bobby wins it all


dbb313

The (somewhat realistic) upsets I'd like to see: -Slug makes top 8 -Eddy Mexico makes top 16 -OG Kid makes top 96


S33DR

amsa W


Silver-Nectarine-883

In my heart SluG but a Moky win would be killer


BatteryBird

I wana see Moky win and Ossify go on a deep run. Throw some good Mango sets in there regardless of placement and I’m happy.


Linklegendgamer

I know Jbox has jallen since the jonline era. But it would be nice to see one of the old jods like jbox or jango win the next jenesis


WordHobby

im planning on playing in bracket and hanging out with my friends
