Pretty crazy to think that game 9 of the 2nd set of the day turned out to be a 5k money match. So fun to watch cosmos all of today though his aegis becoming mad inspiring

Zate

Best set of the bash. So many impressive stocks, hillarious commentary, and super tight throughout

Thomas Layman

30:21 Cosmos is actually insane for getting this sequence under pressure. so good

Daniel Kim

Really enjoyable set!

Boxcar

12:00 that final stock from light was saucy as hell

Phil Clip

The fact that Light will hit Mythra at low percent with dash attack, wait, and turn-around d-tilt to punish a Foresight attempt is OD.

IamRam

I’m gonna need Charles to apologize for saying that is “he a closer or choker” line for cosmos cause it’s all I think about now
