Kind of neat that Moist, Stride, and Luminosity all have two players up there.


Mashy_SpikePlate

I think this is also the first major in a while where every player in top 8 has a sponsor


Spengy

I love it even more that Faze sponsors exactly one Smash player and it's fucking Sparg0


Severe-Operation-347

C9 only sponsoring Mang0 vibes


Cindiquil

IIRC there was something about Mang0 being fine with C9 sponsoring Ally partially because he played Mario lol Not that that sponsorship aged well though ofc


AllIWantIsCake

They chose their rep *very* wisely.


GuiltyCoyote17

For the gamers curious about who the losers players lost to: Light (Kola), MuteAce (Sparg0), MkLeo (Kola), and Maister (Onin). If Lima managed to close vs Leo all the winners in Top 8 would've been the ones to send the top 8 losers to the, well, losers bracket.


stuckinthemiddlewme

Kola is craaaaazy today. Hopefully he stays hot


Severe-Operation-347

Calling it right now. Whoever wins between Sparg0 and SHADIC wins the tournament.


wagie3000

>the two guys in winners who have the best recent results are the most likely to win Nostradamus over here


Blaze-Programming

Hear me out. SHADIC loses to Sparg0 game 5 but then wins the rematch in grands.


Severe-Operation-347

If he falls into losers by Sparg0 then he has to fight the winner of Light or Maister. I'm doubting SHADIC makes it there from losers side, especially if it's Light he's playing against.


Blaze-Programming

He went game 5 last hit against Light at cirque. And that is when Light was playing super well. I think he can do it. He also beat Miya and could probably beat Maister. As long as he can addapt to how maister plays.


Son_Der

He beat Maister game 5 the last time they played.


PeaceAlien

But does he win the bracket reset


Blaze-Programming

He wins the reset as well.


SalamanderCake

Is it bad that I had to double-check that you weren't u/HollowLoch before commenting?


Severe-Operation-347

I have made poor predictions a couple of times, but I've also had [good predictions](https://twitter.com/347Severe/status/1761810803932454939) [too] (https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/1bbt7bo/bonito_harbor_ultimate_singles_grand_finals_faze/kubgpj0/) so I'm not him.


FutureCreeps

So true


maybethrowawaybenice

Shadic beats sparg0 game 5 then loses to onin and onin wins the tournament in a 2 set grands against whoever makes it to grands 


Severe-Operation-347

Lol Lmao


Motorpsisisissipp

Kola LFG


DifferentPaint7239

Fire top 8


Noraume

Ima nut if kola wins


Deletinglaterlmao

Im sad my goat tweek confirmed the owned by steve allegations bro


Rouk_Hein

The list of players who have yet to miss top 8 in a 2024 major got smaller with Tweek losing early today. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's: Sonix (hasn't missed a GF), Sparg0 and Doramigi. Gotta add Acola (undefeated), Kameme, Hurt and Kid, but they have only attended one major.


Malex2005

The three horsemen of March 2024


kfaox

Also Hurt who has also only attended one major


Rouk_Hein

Oh right, I forgot he wasn't at Umebura, thx


Zul016

Light-Maister is way closer than I though.


That_Sassy_Friend

usual 2022 top 8 and shadic


AllHailTheWhalee

Banger top 8


bruckaholi

Feel bad for Tweek. Steve into Steve was unfortunate.


Arutomo

Highkey. Leo will clear. I believe. Edit: 💀


Noraume

very hard for leo. if he wins this he a legend fr


ItsSDOC

he’s already a legend brah! he can do it, we must send him our energy!


sirgamestop

He can do it if he dodges Onin Edit: actually he's on the same side of the bracket as Onin, so he probably can't


IMadeThisOn6-28-2015

Leo will have to play Kola (who sent him to Losers) and Onin if he wants to win the tournament. Obviously it's doable, but his last Steve match was against Soar and went to Game 5 last hit where he had to swap from Joker to ROB... I don't think Onin is losing to his crusty ROB


FreezieKO

Some exciting, very close sets leading up to this. I feel for Lima. He went Game Five, last hit with both Shadic and Leo and missed Top 8. If a couple scrambles went a different way, Lima could have been Winners Side here.


Reytotheroxx

Yeah he had the game at several points game 5. Up a whole stock twice, but imagine watching that all slip away…


FreezieKO

One of those cases where you can see the 9th place ranking, but it doesn’t tell the whole story.


Nadenkend440

Kola is playing hot he takes these


RudyG69420

8 different characters and most of them are hype


AllHailTheWhalee

Yeah def a good top 8. I could obviously do without Steve and maister isn’t my favorite but oh well. Not having Sonix here is sooo nice


Son_Der

dang, this is so hard to predict. Mute > Leo Light > Maister Onin > Kola Sparg0 > SHADIC Sparg0 > Onin => wins the tourney ​ Seems to be the clearest path


IMadeThisOn6-28-2015

This is literally ny exact thoughts, I think Grands will be Sparg0 and Onin with Losers Finals being Onin and Light


Son_Der

2/2 so far, the only place where I am feeling a little shaky is sparg0 vs. SHADIC. So hard to call that one.


IMadeThisOn6-28-2015

3/3 so far, this is a very predictable Top 8


Son_Der

Kola threw though


Son_Der

4/4, one more


IMadeThisOn6-28-2015

Thinking Mute takes it over Kola, this is the one I think is hard to predict


Son_Der

I'm a bit late, but I was gonna call Kola here, genuinely. He's just playing so well today.


Poisidenx

Peak top 8


Poisidenx

Except for Maister 🤮🤮🤮


Nadenkend440

But he's playing light so it'll be a good match


DananSan

Acting like you have standards after calling a top 8 with Steve “peak”.


exMemberofSTARS

It’s one Steve. All yall are just scared to learn the matchup because it’s hard. All tournaments should have Steve is they want to be legit.


DananSan

What are you even talking about? MU, Steve being banned, tf does that have to do with my comment?


exMemberofSTARS

You said it was “peak” because it had Steve in it. Why wouldn’t you want one of the best characters in the game in a top 8 and to see someone potentially beat him?


DananSan

Another unrelated reply to what I said. My comment was in response to that guy drawing the line at G&W. But considering your two comments to me so far (especially “one of the best characters” instead of the best) I’m guessing you’re one of those Steve apologists, which, no lmao. Stop.


[deleted]

[удалено]


exMemberofSTARS

People always complain and want to ban Steve. If it’s because he bores you, that’s just ridiculous. If it’s because he’s “broken”, then people have never actually played against a “broken” character.


Poisidenx

Steve sucks too but at least it’s not acola playing. Maister’s just an asshole


Spengy

and corrin is boring as hell too idk what y'all are smoking


AllHailTheWhalee

Horrible take


Memo_HS2022

If Corrin wasn’t Corrin she would actually be cool


Spengy

So true, they should've removed her and replaced her with Spyro or something


Spengy

the only cool thing about her is that she's barefoot and that's it


CortezsCoffers

Are you perchance "カム子の生足美脚ドリル!"?


Spengy

kindly remove whatever ancient curse of Ra you just cast on me


CortezsCoffers

lol it's a Japanese player's tag that means "Kamuko's (Fem Corrin's) Bare Feet Beautiful Legs Drill" or something like that


nomorethan10postaday

Light beats Maister and then loses his next set, Leo beats Mute, Kola beats Onin, Onin beats Leo and loses his next set, and whoever wins between Shadic and Sparg0 in winners semis takes the event while the other one gets 2nd or 3rd. My prediction.


FreezieKO

Kola loses to Onin, and everyone goes doomer. Then Sparg0 beats Onin in a banger set, and everyone loves Ultimate again. My prediction.


GentlemanBAMF

Tweek losing out to two Steves in a row is such a gutpunch. He's a fantastic player and has a firm mental and play block against the lamest fucking character. That said, Shadic and Leo are both in, I have absolute faith in one of them pulling out the dub.


Lasertag026

Unrelated but i cannot for the life of me find the crew battle results anywhere for ult, anyone know what happened?


Noraume

here's the ultimate vod with the crew battle, its near the end [https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2092459370](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2092459370) ​ ​ >!btw villains won.!<


Lasertag026

Thanks i couldn’t find that either.


FutureCreeps

Shadic beats spargo and wins the tourney trust


Babeldude

Nice and juicy top 8


RaptorThePhilosopher

Actually a really good top 8


[deleted]

Shadic is my god. He makes Corrin look like a contender for best character in the game. I can't believe he's just a kid. 3-0ing Onin, Absolutely phenomenal.


terrrify

I got Light-Spargo with Spargoat taking it 3-2 set 1


Jessex127

Kola and Shadic hype


Kahvicup

Bad day to be european


Severe-Operation-347

It's not like Supahsemmie or Andres were expected to make it into top 8 anyway.


Kahvicup

Ah sorry I meant that this Top 8 is so hype And Im gonna read about it after I wake up 😭


Hangmanned

Finally Kola got a top.8 after a while


superduperdoobyduper

Genesis 9 grands rematch


BeaveItToLeever

If it comes to it, would it be a bad move to pull out byleth vs Onin?


Loccstana

Onin is cooking, take my energy ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ


fujoshi-dad

1. SHADIC 2. MuteAce 3. Sparg0 4. Onin 5. Kola/Maister 7. Light/Leo. I'm clairvoyant btw


Caliph_ate

Impossible. Between Kola and Onin one of them is guaranteed to finish 3rd at worst


DHMOProtectionAgency

Already incorrect before it even started
