Seeding Controversy
A week before the tournament, many people started to complain about the terrible seeding of many players, especially European players such as Glutonny and cyve. Even after GENESIS 6 announced bracket feedback, many still complained that the seeding was inaccurate and should be redone. In response to these complaints, Leffen had messaged GENESIS 6's seeders, telling them to change the seeds. However, not only did the seeders refuse, but they also insulted the European Smash scene - infamously comparing them to penguins - and other smashers such as NAKAT. [1][2] This has created massive backlash on Twitter, with people complaining to GENESIS 6 to fire their seeders. In response to all this backlash, Bear has stated that he was working on adjusting the seeding, and apologized for the rude behavior the seeders have shown. [3]
As a result of the drama, the penguins insult have since become an internet meme, with Smashers such as Leffen and Bear changing their profile picture into penguins, and Bear promising to wear a penguin onsie at GENESIS 6. [4]
