Living Room Hard Mode 😈
Since we're posting this one on other socials, I'll throw it out here also!
Don't worry, the usual contemplate is still coming later this month :))
After this set, RapMonster went on to get 2nd place at a major. I just need to take a moment to stress how unfathomably incredible that is.
RapM just became the highest placing Luigi player of all time, and he's a young student who was literally doing homework at the venue while the event was happening. This record was set by Plup nearly a full decade ago (5th) and was just shattered in a game that's over 24 years old. He is younger than the game itself by a handful of years.
Within the past few weeks, he has already done the impossible multiple times. He was able to take a set off of the current best Falcon player in the world (Wizzrobe), a matchup many thought was an auto-loss for him, and not only did he just make top 8 at a major for the first time, he was only 1 spot away from winning the whole thing.
In a game where many people thought the future of this game would be nothing but perfectly played Fox dittos where sets are determined by port priority, it is instead being taken over by a bunch of kids playing characters like Donkey Kong, Pikachu, and Luigi. This Luigi player in particular looks like he has what it takes to go all the way. You never know what the future will hold.
