As a member of kilogram hours’ crew, him pulling out the hammer is commonly referred to as “whipping it out”

I appreciate all the comments of support 😭 Be on the look out for me at upcoming offline events like Saturday Stadium 3, Combo Breaker 2024, and Invincible VIII

"Kinda disappointing the only King DDD they could find isn't even the best player in their state" "Never mind, bro was smurfing."

Kilogramhours was the 8th seed, but nobody told him that.

As someone who has to play this dude at locals, Kilo’s Jet Hammers feel like they operate under a Domain Expansion.

11:37 "Everyone in my state knows not to jump" LOL

"It's been 9 months since Rickles last tournament. That's enough time to create an entire human." So what you're saying is there's a Rickles Jr. somewhere in the world that we don't know about.

Kind of disappointed skyway didn’t go farther, but kilogramhours was playing super well

It’s probably for the best that he chose to not invite a Kazuya to this tournament

Skyjay in the lag is just a few frames behind on all his revenges for the gordos, you can see he jumps into them

Kilogram Hours needs to make an appearance on ‘best of every character’ on the Underdogs

“Do not get cheesed” -LeoN

Leon has the most high level experience, he's been playing professional mind games and breaking down vulnerabilities for the longest of these players. Thats what i think made the difference, he was very VERY focused on getting underneath kiligramhours and made a lot of openings for himself by playing to his landing weakness. The other competitors struggled to exploit circumstantial weaknesses and create vulnerabilities to the same degree of effectiveness. It was really cool to watch the underdog take it to the very end. and it was even cooler to watch the run come down to very split second decisions stemming from a high level understanding that some top players can't make as well as others. This is what this shit used to be all about. Main tourneys have recently been decided by systematic advantages that just can't be overcome with efficient split second decision making. Thanks for putting this on Poppt1, it was a lot of fun to watch!

This video is a KilogramHour long damn

I never watch competitive smash.... like ever. But gathering the best heavies in the world is a genius move from poppt as he's trying to grow the audience of competitive smash. These players have the same skill level of top players but don't have the lame play styles of characters such as sonic or Steve. These sets were fun exciting and got me to watch more competitive smash. GREAT VID POPPT!!! :)

As soon as Leon said "Ganondorf is scary" I just smiled

Imagine if king of skill was the guest player the champion fights at the end of the tournament

While watching this live I almost let out a huge gasp while my teacher was explaining stuff. I was watching it in the back of class I didn't want to miss it

We love kilogrammhours fuckin legend

This video is so much more hype then normal tournaments, incredible job poppt

22:46 Jordan pronouncing Illinois completely wrong is hilarious

It would have been cool for there to be a surprise championship match against Hero, a Japanese player who’s currently ranked 47th in the world and the best Bowser in the entire world

KGHours doing all us Dededes proud

spoilers: as soon as Leon took the first stock in game 2 of grands, i said out loud "yeah he's not losing another one". he completely figured out KgH after just a single match of adaptation - that veteran experience really set him apart in this tournament. really great job to everyone who participated though

Next Video: “I Held a Smash Tournament to Find The Best Time-Staller In The World” featuring Sonix, Chase, and 6 Steve mains 💀

Leon: I don't wanna get cheesed Also Leon: BOWSER SIDE B WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This video was absolutely insane. Every match was hype. Would love more of these types of videos.

Damn. Not skyjay getting a dedede right off the bat. That's really unfortunate.

Little Z: “AND HE SUCKED HIM UP OFFSTAGE” Poppt: “That’s not what you want” Little Z: “Then what DO you want??” Poppt: “Uhhhhhh…” I cannot 💀

Ever since the canned tuna incident on the pod, poppt has developed a hatred of tuna

Watching this live was hella hype ngl. Would not mind another one of these types of tournaments

You have to make these heavies only-tournaments a regular thing!

Heavy characters are my favorite unrepresented characters. The fact you guys got this together is nothing but amazing.

And the best heavy in the world is...Hero from Japan! (Or Skyjay still, but wifi Dedede defeats all). Really though, good stuff to LeoN.

How does bro not like tuna

this is why we love poppt

im so happy leon won as a bowser main i was rooting for him from the begining

Incredible video, wish I was there to watch the stream live. Only piece of feedback is I wish you asked more gameplay specific questions in the player interviews, and in general let them speak more as I think you accidentally cut them off a couple times. would have loved to hear more from these talented heavy bois 😃

56:04 am I missing something or has one of the best Australian smash players of all time never heard of a RAR? Fantastic video btw :)

Super cool tournament I'd love a Hero tournament tbh.

Kilogram Hours is absolutely goated holy crap I really hope this puts him on the map for bigger tournaments

After being in the same region as a good Dedede player for a while, I can confirm that Jet Hammer is a very underrated move.

Thank you for organizing this tournament, Jordan! And thank you to all the players for an amazing show!

So happy you posted this. I watched it live and WOW. One of the most entertaining videos in smash history. Please please please keep them coming. I would definitely donate and/or pay for more of these

I'm vibin with this video. You always got great stuff but I gotta compliment this lol. I like the concept, players in it, game play, commentary, and analysis. Crazy matches too!

I'm so happy Leon won, I've been watching him and learning from his bowser for so long now, great to see all these heavies though, and KGHours was also REALLY good.

THANK YOU for actually host a FUN TOURNAMENT. Please do more like this!!! Lately I've been watching coinbox, but that streaming IT'S CHAOTIC AS HELL!!! whit the on-screen twitch chat/donations/subs, multi-screen/match ... Gimmi a break! You guys are a breath of fresh air! I love the idea of a Heavyweight exclusive tournament!!! And great commentary!!!! I have to say

Spectacular video and commentary from you and Little Z, definitely would love to see more of these!

What a great tournament. It's definitely the hypest i've watched in a while. You never knew how the game or the sets were gonna go.

This format was so much fun!! I was excited for skyjay so the first game hurt, but kilogramhours had a great run I like the combination of hype, analysis and general gameplan in the commentary :) Maybe the format would also work with other categories, like super light characters or floaty characters.. I would watch it!

I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! Great job Little Z and Poppt1. This is one of my favorite videos on your channel Poppt1!

Really enjoyed this video TCnick3!

Yoooo this tournament is sick, i unfortunately missed the stream when this was live

Most hype games I’ve seen in forever!! Heart wrenching at the end though, everyone was cheering for the same person I bet

Great video, really cool concept! I’d love to see more like it

Good stuff poppt! I would love more content like this!

Missed the stream, glad this is finally out!

Damn. I would never watch a competitive tournament with top tier characters, but seeing this was just absolutely amazing. So many good moments.

The tournament I didn’t know I needed. Really cool idea to keep the game alive. Could you do an ultimate melee where it’s just melee characters?

seeing you and zack as commentators made me smile the whole video, thank you guys.. much love

Never watched a full tournament before, and not watched a full set on competitive smash in over a year, but watched this whole thing in one go 😂😂😂

I know these won't be very common because getting 8 people in different places is hard but this is one of my favorite videos and even though i don't like watching tournaments this was hype.

Lmao "big words big combos" 😂 Great stuff guys

That was super Fun got my sub. Looking forward to more of this.

THIS WAS SUCH A GREAT VID , your guys commentary was brilliant thanks so much for this it made my day

Honestly great video. Super entertaining to see these characters and players.

"not the suck you want" "what's the one you want then?" "Uhhhhhhh" 😂 Creased me!

Absolutely banger Video...was a long time ago since I saw such hype gameplay.

Poppt1 I think if you change the title of the video to sometime more eye catching like FINDING THE BEST HEAVY IN THE WORLD or something you might get more attention on this video. I loved the video so I hope other people see this on their feed from the RU-vid algorithm.

That tournament was SO HYPE KgHrs is such a chad lmao incredible. What a pleasure to watch.

I love all these players man I wish this was double elimination. They’re all so hype I want them all to win

Everyone always jokes about an all heavy tournament but this is the legit hypest tournament maybe ever

This is awesome Great job poppt1!!!

Unsure why i like heavies so much, but i do. So this tourney is a perfect watch for me. Thanks guys for putting it on! Also, every match feels a bit like an upset, which is also great lol

leon the one who got me into maining bowser. in earlier games i mained pit, but over here i switched to bowser then joker dropped and he became my secondary. so happy bro clutched

This is top-tier Smash. Heavies are playing the game the way it was meant to be played. Little or no combos, just neutral reads and mind games. 11/10, I hope this gets run again.

“Suckin em up off stage!” “ ah, not in a good way, that’s the one you don’t want..” “…what’s the one you do want??👀” Commentary on point.😂 32:06

Love the vid fun sets If you do another you gotta get a piranha plant because hes a funny character

Just the first set was worth the 2 unskipble Ads

LOVE this idea, Jordan! Keep it up!

Run this tournament back sometime soon! So fun to watch!

this type of content is so good from you jordan, love it!

I feel like after you get rocked by Dedede Hammer once suddenly it feels like Mac's KO punch

"Everyone knows it, everyone's played it" bro was making ABSOLUTE sure not to say everyone loves it 😂

Best of 3 single elimination 💀

This tournament was so hype I could not look away! If only all Ultimate tournaments were this entertaining to watch.

KilogramHours is a goddamn hero. Oh my God that was so hype to watch.

just for some feedback, I’d love to see the facecam during the sets and gameplay so we could see the reactions and just makes the video better in my opinion, great video tho

24:40 chunky kong actually taught me this one in coaching but i havent seen him expand on it past the up-b so seeing him use it to kill is very cool.

This was un-ironically one of the most entertaining tournaments I've ever watched.

HE DIDN'T KNOW NOT TO JUMP

Ngl I've been putting off watching the tournament but DAMN I WAS MISSING OUT. This is easily the most hype tournament I've ever watched!!! KGH is absolutely 🔥🔥🔥

Haven't watched yet but I just wanted to put my prediction. This video isn't gonna be reflective of tier lists most likely. That's not a bad thing though, it's just something that's super neat. The reason I think this is cause if competitive Pokémon and how which tier a Pokémon is sorted into is based on usage. A Pokémon that demonstrates this perfectly would be Gastrodon as it's typically niche and falls to the lower tiers but Gastrodon for the longest time has been the best way to keep Kyogre in check in the higher tiers and thus sees consistent usage in Ubers (the tier for legendaries and broken Pokémon) in many generations. What I'm trying to get across is that a Pokémon can have every tool to succeed but whether or not they're viable depends onto the other Pokémon within the tier and how well they match up against them. Basically a heavy could be the worst heavy because they match up poorly into most of the meta, but in a format where you have only heavies they could be the best heavy since they match up well specifically into heavies. Tl;dr something's environment and surrounding competitors can drastically change their viability.

The Florida DK representation makes me warm and fuzzy inside

You have to make this an annual thing, easily one of the best tournaments I've watched. I will make it my lifelong goal to be invited

LOVE this, Poppt! So good! Thank you!

awesome idea and a really high quality video! hoping this video does well

LETS GO BOWSER LIVING UP TO HIS NAME AS KING

“ChunkyKong…Florida…his keys” I know it’s an accidental reference but that was really funny 😂
