PAST SEASONS
S3: Ike's debut was late into Season 3, so in actuality he didn't have a lot of time to move up the ranks. With the tournament being The Gauntlet Season, and Ike still being pretty green, it was hard for him to advance without taking any losses. He did better than most of the amiibos he entered with, so he did alright in my book.
S4: Season 4 is really where Ike's journey began. Though he didn't come right out the gate looking like a beast, his growth potential was very strong. As the tournament progressed, his middle of the pack finishes turned into top place finishes, and he was looking to be a powerful amiibo. In the Top 16, Ike got matched with 3 top tier veterans and he was still just a little too green to hold on. Ultimately, Ike finishes in 16th place, a big step up from his 24th place in Season 3.
S5: Season 5's implementation of The Challenger Series highlighted a plethora of match types, in which Ike completely dominated. His point gain was through the roof, easily landing himself a spot in the Top 20. Ike continued to impress well into the Top 20, as he took down some big names and climbed all the way to 12th place. He continues to improve every season, with some amiibos very inconsistent with their scores, it's good to see one continuing to improve and get stronger as time goes on.
S6: Ike crushes the Wildcard Event. Behind Link, Ike was the only other amiibo to landslide the 1v1 phase and really put himself in a cozy spot to advance. Ike's performance in the Challenger Series started out extremely strong against newcomer Mii Swordsman, but Swordsman managed to get the 1 up on him, winning 3 out of 5 of their Bo5. However, with Ike crushing Bowser Jr, he secured his spot in the Top 20. Will he continue to make improvements on his placements, or will we see him slip for the first time? Stay tuned for more updates!!
