Hence why he said the matchup is even, not favored

. Even a 4-6 matchup deficit I wouldn't consider as 'demolishing'.

Alright, alright. It's not the most difficult matchup in the world, but fox definitely wins, it's not close to even however.

I'm pretty happy with ken's performance this tournament, his comeback vs fly was great and his games vs pewpewu were really close (ppu is the 2nd best marth afaik?)

I wish there were more marth players around

Watch the few games of PP's Marth lying around on Youtube (he also played him in PM at Tipped Off 9), I'd say him and M2K are both above PPU in terms of Marth.

Right, I had completely forgotten about PP's marth, but I've seen so few games of him as marth, I really don't know how good he is overall with it

The documentary is honestly one of the best things that's ever happened to smash. Samox knocked it out of the park.

I was pleasantly surprised by how deep he made it in the tournament. But my favorite part of KoC3 was seeing Ken/Hugs tear it up in teams. They'd lose a stock or two to general stupidity and then Ken would suddenly get tippers everywhere. Downsmash tippers, tippers through other players, you name it. And Hugs clutching it out 1v1 vs Kira was awesome. Low risk, moderate reward indeed.

So good.

Good enough to beat m2k in marth mirrors.

Yeah PP's Marth doesn't have many games on Youtube. Of course there's the Apex GFs, but he also Marth ditto'd M2K and later played his Sheik at the same tournament (one of the Xanadus). He also pulled it out in one game against M2K at TBH3 I think.

IMO his Marth is probably the safest and cleanest of the three, especially in the neutral game, but has weaker punish and comboing

It's basically confirmed at this point. All that really remains to be seen are the specific details, how far MLG plans to run with it, and what their expectations are.

Johnny “S2J” Kim - Vanz is easily the most overrated player on the list. I have no idea why people are popping off about Fiction/ MacD when Vanz has done nothing since he moved to shit hole ohio. I only remember him getting 3rd place in Big House 1, getting owned by me when i sucked. He has done literally nothing since then for a clean 3 years and yet the majority of people gave him at least a 7.5. That is a complete joke compared even to Fiction.
