Vote for your favorite esports players in the Dexerto Awards – Check out the results for the best Call of Duty player of 2019 – \ud83e\udd14 Who was the best Super Smash Bros Ultimate player of 2019? \ud83c\udfae@Mkleosb, @TweekSsb, @Samsora_ or @Marss_NE ? \ud83c\udfc6 Vote for your favorite in the #DexertoAwards \u2014 Toad\u2019s Nintendo News (@MailToadINTEL) December 14, 2019 However, while MkLeo may have won, every single one of these players deserves recognition based on their performances in 2019. Check out the nominations below. Leonardo \u2018MKLeo\u2019 Lopez Perez MKLeo dominated Ultimate in 2019, in part due to his mastery of the DLC fighter Joker. The Mexican unlocked the character\u2019s potential, winning several majors, including EVO 2019 and Super Smash Con. THE SHOW’S OVER! After an incredible show of skill coming out of Losers and resetting the bracket, @Mkleosb defeats Tweek 3-0 and is your #EVO2019 Super #SmashBrosUltimate champion! Congratulations! pic.twitter.com\/5KEk9s09bi \u2014 Nintendo Versus (@NintendoVS) August 5, 2019 Perez also competed in events in Japan and Europe, truly becoming an international star and leaving a lasting impression all over the world. To top off 2019, MKLeo emerged victorious at the S-tier tournament Kongo Saga where he never dropped into the losers\u2019 bracket. Gavin \u2018Tweek\u2019 Dempsey While Tweek wasn\u2019t completely dominant in 2019, he enjoyed a superb victory at Get On My Level in Toronto and finished second at EVO. Following this, Tweek\u2019s Pokemon Trainer fell on hard times, but his hero pool is capable of evolution and the TSM star will be looking to have an even better year in 2020. While he did suffer a slump in form, he came back to have a good end to 2019, finishing second at Kongo Saga, where he fell twice to MKLeo in Winners\u2019 Finals and Grand Finals. Given his post-Smash Con placements, this was a strong result. Ezra \u2018Samsora\u2019 Morris Peach main Samsora had respectable finishes at seemingly every event he entered in 2019. Notably, the eUnited pro ended MKLeo\u2019s tournament win streak at Shine where he cracked the Joker code in dramatic fashion. When it comes to consistency, Samsora brought strong results day in, day out, finishing second at Super Smash Con, Smash Ultimate Summit 2, and Smash \u2018N\u2019 Splash 5. The Peach legend had a solid 2019, then, and as his mastery of the fighter continues, he should be dominant for many more years to come. Tyler \u2018Marss\u2019 Martins With his mastery of Zero Suit Samus, Marss used 2019 to become one of the most hype players in the world to watch. His electrifying skills with ZSS have led to many highlight reel moments, and with them, some strong 2019 results, including first-place finishes at DreamHack Montreal and Atlanta, and a runner-up spot at majors Get On My Level and CEO. A tough 3-2 set ending in a nail-biter! Congratulations to @Marss_NE for winning #SmashBrosUltimate at #DHATL19! \ud83e\udd47 \ud83e\udd48 @Samsora_ \ud83e\udd49 @DabuzSenpai pic.twitter.com\/HSzlWbDdUf\u2014 Nintendo Versus (@NintendoVS) November 18, 2019 So there are four Smash Ultimate players who have enjoyed a stellar 2019.
