A Minecraft character wins the tournament as the “God”

Which character did the winner use? The 15-year-old player won the tournament using the character Steve.

Steve is a character from Minecraft and has some special abilities that no other character can. He sets up a crafting table in the arena. There he can upgrade his tools and attacks with resources that he collects from the stage. He can also place blocks anywhere in the arena.

How good is the character? Steve shows good statistics. He is among the most chosen characters and has an above-average win rate of 62% (via pgstats.com). The player acola has therefore chosen one of the most popular and strongest characters to win the tournament.

This is Steve.

Pro highlights the winner as the “God of Ultimate”

Who is speaking? Juan DeBiedma, better known as Hungrybox, is one of the best Smash Bros. players. He is counted among the so-called “five gods of Melee.” These are the best players who dominate most tournaments, leaving the other participants far behind.

DeBiedma is considered the best Jigglypuff player. He was the Smash Summit Champion in 2017, 2018, and 2020, and has won DreamHack 5 times.
