If the marvel matches are up on Youtube, check them out bra. Top 8.

Scrubeks was playing so well (he took out a lot of notable players), then
completely lost the plot. This guy has tech for days but did some really
dumb shit. Not only him, but Busby (C. Viper player) too against PR Rog. I
hate it when talented players screw up so badly. Some poor decisions in
parts, bad assist calls, dropped combos, the works. I can also see Flocker
just doesn't give a damn about this game anymore. His Zero looked tame
compared to past performances. Under normal circumstances, any confirm from
him was guaranteed death. This guy was dropping incoming confirms with
Zero. Check any of his past matches and tell me the amount of times that
happens.

Main reason I'm so upset about Scrubeks playing the way he did is because
he could have won the tournament if he was more consistent. He's fun to
watch and has some really cool combos/setups with MODOK's jamming bomb.
It's a shame that he threw it all away towards the end.
