They've been like that though. It was just Zackray, Shuton, and Kameme then though. Tea was also already nice. But I do agree in the sense that they're REestablished. Idk if it was the ENTIRE rest of the world or not, but NA (AVERAGE VIEWERS, NOT PLAYERS. SORRY FOR CONFUSION) sure did an amazing job just not including Japan region players in their top lists for some reason.

Zomba isn’t the hero we wanted but the hero we needed. He was so close to qualifying for the panda cup events a lot of the times. Apex 2022 wasn’t a major tbh. And saying that the smash weekend is calm before the championship ain’t correct. There’s winner! Next #1 sumabato sp 32 and seibugeki 12 the upcoming weekends.

well it does qualify as a major but i know what you mean. this tournament was like 1/50th as stacked as ludwigs

Although the Panda Cup Finale seems interesting I think the lack of International representation (Japan & Europe) makes it a little bit underwhelming compared to the SWT. This feels in my opinion more like a very stacked NA invitational rather than a End-Season Final. Still I think will be a great tournament and looking up for it, though.
