"What a comeback", yeah, hardly surprising when you're playing the best character in the game, who has the strongest in-built comeback mechanic in any Smash game. Wow, what a surprise. Honestly... Leo was carried to that win. Not saying he's not the best in the world or anything, like... he'd have beaten everyone else the way he was playing. But he wouldn't have beaten Tweek. Tweek outplayed him badly and everytime he was close to winning, Joker said PERSONA and carried MKLeo to the win. Every single time. Tweek deserved it and had it stolen from him from a broken DLC character who's actually getting buffs instead of nerfs. Good stuff, Sakurai.

Other than that yeah, it was pretty hype. Just wanted to see Tweek win. Playing a (somewhat) honest character, coming up with hype plays, outplayed MKLeo 90% of the time, and well, if he'd have won he'd have actually looked excited about it unlike mr. anti-hype MKLeo.

Ugh, I'm pissed. Had gone to a local earlier and was knocked out by a Joker, too. This whole day has been about Joker. I hate this character.

Leo was killing it with Ike and Lucina at the start of the game's life and was the only person at Evo's top 32 that was playing Joker. He is just straight up the best Smash Ultimate player by far. I seriously doubt that he is being carried by Joker, hell after ZeRo retired Leo was ranked number 1 on PGR's Smash 4 player rankings.

Try practicing against Joker and maybe pick up a secondary that is a good counterpick to Joker, learn to adapt to his strengths and find his weakness.
