Turn around for Helix there!

EDIT: Also, one of the commentators said Helix has a nice butt.

 

[LotusHD]

That looks so satisfying to send that giant punch and have it chew into the target. An actual King Kong Gun.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Umm... yeah... this stream is definitely selling me on ARMs.

 

[Boss Doggie]

dat face shielding

 

[Dyle]

Man Helix is great and that shield arm looks really useful

 

[syncyes]

this DNA player is damn good

watching from ribbon girl's perspective put his strategy in such good...perspective~

is this girl fedora girl from yesterday

 

[Totakeke]

Spring Man just standing there throwing straight punches...

 

[Cerium]

She should've kept the fedora and why is that dude wearing bunny ears?

 

[jack_package_200]

So can someone give me a quick rundown of how the tournament is going?

Does ARMS seem like something with some real meat to it based on what we have seen so far?

Edit: Watching now, god this game looks fun

It looks like the real deal.

And this ain't even pros playing.

Tournament is fun to watch, the more skilled players put on a great show. There's a lot of polish and attention to detail with the animations, sounds, and designs, as you would expect considering the developer pedigree. There's lots of strategic depth with the different weapon combinations, the players themselves have only good things to say, and FGC impressions seem positive as well. I can't speak to the latter personally however.

do you need a reason to wear bunny ears? please.

Trying to watch only the players waving their arms around wildly is strangely entertaining

 

[Conor_Fool]

Dude in the mask has some dope shorts

 

[Magnet_Man]

It's the godly Min Min!

 

[syncyes]

i do miss yesterday's chuunibyous though haha

 

[Totakeke]

Grab attempt countered by super. That's a good one.

All the more technical players have the same problem right now, not enough damage on punish.

 

[Jintor]

MUTHA FUCKING TURNABOUT

 

[Cerium]

HOLY FUCK THAT COMEBACK

 

[Speely]

THAT FUCKING COMEBACK

Talk about clutch. What a player.

 

[Conor_Fool]

Hooooly fucking shit!!!

 

[Magnet_Man]

THE DREAM!

 

[jwillenn]

didn't expect that

 

[jack_package_200]

I am going to main Minmin so goddamn hard.

She looks so fun to play.

 

[CoconutTank]

wow that Min Min comeback what the heck O_O Master Mummy had nearly his whole life bar too.

 

[Conor_Fool]

wow that Min Min comeback what the heck O_O Master Mummy had nearly his whole life bar too.

So freakin dope. Cannot wait for this game to release!

 

[Cerium]

You could literally see the moment when Master Mummy got rattled and panicked.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Hot damn, that was good.

This game looks stupid fun and really sells the concept of the Joycons. Much better of a launch window game than Nintendo Land (or 1-2 Switch) for demonstrating the concept of the pack in controller.

 

[Speely]

^ Yeah!

Conversely, the Minmainer was focused played smart when literally any kind of damage would have ended him.

Min Min's dragon arm looks so useful for her style of attack, too.

 

[JustenP88]

Dangit, my stream is totally crapping out

 

[Nanashrew]

Highlight for me is Kid Zeon. 10 year old kid making it to semis by playing smart and playing well.

 

[Harpoon]

That ducking under Spring Man's super was great.

 

[Totakeke]

I'd like Helix to stop jumping and just punch.

 

[Jintor]

these nervous nerds lmao

d-n-a!

 

[Magnet_Man]

Boy's about to faint lol.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Wow the guy playing DNA is shaking. He must be super nervous.

 

[Speely]

I'd like to see this end with a Min Min vs DNA Man finals.

 

[Magnet_Man]

This Mechanica player has been making me sad the entire time with just standing still and spamming Revolvers. Wreck him crazy Min Min!

 

[Totakeke]

About time someone beat up the guy who can't even hold the controllers straight.

 

[Nanashrew]

This Mechanica player has been making me sad the entire time with just standing still and spamming Revolvers. Wreck him crazy Min Min!

Mechanica has been wrecked

 

[atr0cious]

This Mechanica player has been making me sad the entire time with just standing still and spamming Revolvers. Wreck him crazy Min Min!

Yup, imagine what someone who knows what they're doing could do with her, if he's able to win flailing like it's a Wii game.

 

[random25]

That was a dominating performance.

 

[Magnet_Man]

I'm rooting for you nervous kid! Get that T-Shirt!

 

[Speely]

Hope his nerves don't cause a choke. He's gonna need all his focus for this freaking Min Min.

 

[Nanashrew]

I like both so I don't know who to root for.

 

[Cerium]

lol the stream is hype as fuck

look at the chat

 

[Speely]

Damn this is some of the best play I have yet seen of this game, period.

 

[Cerium]

I hope someone is recording this.

 

[Nanashrew]

Jumping on the spring board wall to dodge the face shield was really good. These finals matches are great!

 

[CaviarMeths]

I foresee a lot of Min Min mains.

 

[Magnet_Man]

I'd say swap out the water balloon but the only other option is an ice dragon... They're both too slow for this matchup.

Though it can work if he keeps Min in the corner.

Ooooh, different stage!
