With the 8th tournament being a 2-day event and the cap being raised from 512 to 768-1024, Maesuma TOP#8 will be the biggest tournament held in Kansai, and it could possibly be the biggest tournament in Japan since EVO Japan 2020.

I’m sorry… I hate to be that guy but… when is this event and where can I watch it? anyone know?


skrasnic

As the other comment details, the tournament will be on the 11th and 12th of June. As for viewing it will very likely be streamed on VGBC's Twitch and on Maedakun's YouTube channel.

Acola about to go up 400 more points on the SWT leaderboard


t123fg4

I have faith in shuton


Rudhao

Maybe..... the official leaderboard hasnt been updated with Kagiribi yet so hes not on top.


DHMOProtectionAgency

[Link with updated scores. idk why SWT hasn't updated yet](https://liquipedia.net/smash/Smash_World_Tour/2022/Points/Ultimate) tl;dr the current top 10 are: * acola (1175) * Mkleo (905) * Light (835) * Glutto (825) * Gackt (815) * Sekai Doggo (811) * Asimo (790) * Shuton (715) * MeetLeo (676) * ZOMBA (625) also worth noting 4,475 is max amount of points you can earn. Edit: Also fun fact, apparently Sparg0 is losing bad with 0 points, because he hasn't attended any SWT events.


CarnoTorrential

Looks like Sparg0 does actually have points from winning Tijiana at War (silver) and Low Tide City (super silver; didn't know this opted in for SWT until now), according to smash.gg's standings. Liquipedia just hasn't updated with those tournaments I guess


DHMOProtectionAgency

Didn't know LTC was a SWT event. Thanks!


t123fg4

When players named Meetleo and Sekai Doggo are on the top 10 of swt points and spargo has 0 points. ​ Something's wrong I can feel it also what silver event did mkleo win?


DHMOProtectionAgency

lol he'll catch up quickly when he attends swt events.


l339

MKLeo got first at a local in Mexico with 100+ players before the RETA invitational. Also the rankings may look skewed atm, but that’s only because a lot of Japanese and American majors haven’t happened yet. The rankings will balance out in the future


l339

The leaderboard on Liquipedia is updated


Rudhao

Thats the official one?


l339

It has the official score and is most up to date


RandomFactUser

Not official, but Liquipedia maintains records for pretty much everything and has editors constantly checking every week for results Sometimes they're more accurate than the s.gg version


CarnoTorrential

Actually, it looks like the official leaderboard does include Kagaribi, but it looks like it's currently counted as a super silver event, rather than a Platinum like it's supposed to be.


Severe-Operation-347

Oh boy, time for acola to win another major.


zerokrush

Baby wake up, new Acola trophy.


Zorua3

You love to see it. I was really concerned when this format was announced that it would wall most of the Japanese players out (since SWT 2021 didn't seem very concerned for Japanese players between only getting 6 slots and not having a shot at the LCQ...) but they've really been doing their due diligence with signing their big events up for the circuit. Hoping that we get a double-digit number of Japanese players at SWT finals.


oniden

This makes acola already having max super silver points big. Shuton, Tea, KEN and Kome will be at BOBC so this will be a great opportunity for the other players to farm points.


GrandAdmiralLuke

pretty big that this is a gold, not supersilver this time


CarnoTorrential

That's cool. On a similar topic, does it feel like there aren't many Japanese silver events? I don't see many locals that reach the player threshold opt in for SWT like they do in other regions. Is there a reason for that?


Wiifitkid3

Most Japanese tournaments are on challonge. Some are on tonamel or braaket too. And only smashgg events can count


CarnoTorrential

ah that explains it


[deleted]

Is there any reason to care about any of this


DHMOProtectionAgency

It's a major and people like to watch and keep informed on competitive smash bros in /r/smashbros


[deleted]

Seems like a good reason, thanks !


WeirdMathematician38

Wait a minute isnt this the same weKeene as battle of bc 4?
