Description: Ness, Bowser, Pichu, and Mewtwo being picked by top players deep in high stakes Smash tournaments? Mario vs Young Link in a serious match between two top 10 players? Hungrybox playing Fox and Falco vs Armada? Yes, these are all things that actually happened in Melee tournaments. Pulling out a mid/low tier deep in a high stakes Smash tournament is always a HUGE risk, and as you'll see in this video, sometimes it works out, and sometimes.... not so much. PS: Just like the previous one, I decided to do Melee only for this version as well, this is because top players in Melee generally tend to have a set group of their best 1 or 2 characters that they will play almost exclusively and it is extremely rare to see them go for the shocking and out of the blue low/mid tier character picks. It's much more common to see picks like this in PM, Smash 4, and now Ultimate due to the fact that the metas of these games aren't quite as developed, so there are a lot of low/mid tier characters that haven't been fully explored yet and have a lot of untapped potential, due to this you'll more frequently see top players whipping these characters out in tournament to try to catch their opponent off guard or take advantage of a good matchup. But I'm definitely planning on making a version of this video featuring all games sometime in the future! However, I'll most likely have to wait until Ultimate's meta settles down and becomes more developed, since it came out so recently. Thanks for watching!
