Melee has been pretty insane today.

M2K vs Armada for top 8.



Melee has been insanely hype with these upsets with M2K and Armada.

Also Blazblue finale's are starting, this should be fun to watch.

Best match so far though, Echo Fox Harada:

I'm watching Smash 4 only by the way.

I'm not a Tekken fan, but Harada is just the best.

Well Reggie isn't a developer or even close to it, as a CEO of NoA you'd imagine he barely has time to play a lot of games, never mind learning Smash. Sakurai would definitely be a lot better, but would still likely go out early in pools anyway since he's not into competitive Smash as a whole and doesn't seem to be too great of a player based on videos of him playing, spamming rolls and such.

I know, but why set up the match if he couldn't even double jump back to the stage? He just rolled off the stage and killed himself multiple times. It looked like he had barely played Smash for more than a few minutes his entire life. 
No one was expecting Reggie to win or even put up a fight, but that was just painful to watch.

When I say I want more devs/producers to play, I don't mean I expect them to be good at it. Just show you have some passion for the game.

He looked like he'd never played it because it's likely that's the case the match was set up more as marketing as the misadventures of Reggie is often a powerful marketing campaign in itself.

My god we are only 2 matches in on the Blazblue finals and its incredibly hype so far.



Man I need to play more Cross Tag Battle, the finals are getting intense.



BBTB is having a strong top 8 showing.

Really hope these finals give the game a nice boost in player count, since not a lot of people are playing like I just check there are only 934 players on PC right now (Its having a free weekend on Steam right now) and only 65 players in the lobbies on the Switch version. 



"What the fuck Koji"

LMFAO they forgot to turn off the mics.
