Apex attendees should ready their Ki for Larry so that he can defend himself and the nation from the Japanese.

Hmm.....I get that the staff probably won't want to change anything now. But I think having USA VS WORLD Exhibition is a bad idea so early in the tournament.. I just think it's going to be really disheartening to all the foreign players (who are already pretty sure they are going to lose the crew battle) to lose in front of the entire Apex audience. It would be demoralizing and they perform worst in the actually tourney because of it.

Crews are often done after the tournament(or right before top 8) to avoid this. This is even worse because unlike the Street Fighter community(who still usually do crews really late in the tournament) the foreign players aren't expected to win everything.

how about the others.

Nietono etc.


Well if Nitetono is as good as Brood or better as it seems he is, I predict a possible win for him. Just depends on who he faces/if DEHF is somehow knocked to loser's early

LOL, who are you to say it's going to be demoralizing. All I want is epic battles, win or lose won't affect me in the least.. Anyways you are not a pro player so you wouldn't understand this.

Rain is still very good. Haven't played him tonight though for some reason.

Kakera has the most IC tricks by far. Never seen so much desync bull****. He's very patient and is perfect at platform canceling so good luck if you play him on smashville. He never charges upsmash after he's done cging cause all the Japanese can break out of grabs VERY quickly. Ikon was cging Otori and did a very small charged upsmash while Otori was at 145% and Otori broke out. Swear it was less than 1/5 a second, so damn fast lol. Kakera is getting top 8.

Otori is very good for a MK. Very fast, reminds me of Nairo with his speed. He rarely ever leaves himself open and likes to start combos with short hop up air from the ground. His playstyle is very weird though since he learned MK in Japan. He's very good but he will still have a tough time since he's MK and US knows all about that. But he's NOT losing to anyone but a very high top player imo. He will probably get top 16 at least.

Nietono was the best there imo. His reads, his bs Olimar tricks, his untouchable defense, his aggressiveness, he's got it all. Both Bleachigo and I think he's better than Dabuz and Brood and he will get top 5 at least although I surely think he can win it. Wouldn't guarantee it though cause there's 400 freaking smashers here lol, no one is guaranteed first.

Ocean is pretty good. I think he can make bracket. Others had a hard time with him but I went even, mainly cause it was Falco vs ROB though. His ROB will catch people off guard.

Also the Japanese themselves all said Nietono and 9B are even in skill. They said after those two its a mix up between Kakera, Otori, SLS, and Brood. Rain is close behind with Kuroobi and some others they mentioned. Can't understand them half the time.

None of them speak decent English.

They understand 3 words:

Food
Thank you
Money Match

They are very nice though as expected and apparently Otori is the guy they make fun of consistently calling him Baka all the time. Its all joking though.

The correct translation is "ching chong ming wong bing wong"
