Ranai's performance at G3 was simply inspiring, truth be told. He took a good character with solid tools, labbed the mess out of him with hard work, and was able to develop strategies and tech from his work, and turned a character not percieved as great into a real tournament threat, going toe to toe with other high level players and their top tier games. Ranai represents everything I love about competitive smash bros. I have never really seen such a great story before since aMSa's tear through melee as yoshi. This game's scene
desperately needs more players like him.
So you could imagine my dismay to find out all these top level players quitting on their mains, and becoming sheik and zss mains. They view the conditions of their main (some of which are top tier) as hopeless. They felt like their was no way to conquer Sheik.
