Number #98

[darthvaderlim]

Similar to number #99, I will be looking at who deserve to wear that number and who doesn't.
Sasuke 1-Ishikawa Masaya- Kabe Nobori(First Stage)
Sasuke 2-Cho Takeo- Yueru Hashi(First Stage)
Sasuke 3- Kujirai Yasutoshi(Spider Walk)
Sasuke 4-Shingo.Yueru Hashi(First Stage).I think he might have a chance to reach the final.
Sasuke 5-Shingo. Pipe Slider(Third Stage).I think he would made it to the Final without his injured shoulder
Sasuke 6-Kane.Body Prop(Thire Stage)
Sasuke 7-Kane.Spider Walk (Second Stage)
Sasuke 8-Shingo.Rope Climb (First Stage)Should have been Akiyama
Sasuke 9- Shingo.Rumbling Dice(Third Stage)
Sasuke 10-Shingo.Rope Climb (First Stage)
Sasuke 11-Shingo.Cliffhanger Kai (Third Stage)
Sasuke 12-Yamada. The infamous glove incident and the only time he wore this number
Sasuke 13-Takeda.Cliffhanger Kai (Third Stage).I think he had a chance to reach the Final if his shoulder wasn't injured
Sasuke 14-Shingo.Curtain Cling(Third Stage)
Sasuke 15-Shinji.Crooked Wall. (First Stage)
Sasuke 16-Takeda. Cliffhanger(Third Stage) I think Bunpei should have worn this number
Sasuke 17-Shingo.Body Prop(Third Stage).Should have been Takeda or Yamada Koji
Sasuke 18-Kenji.Shin-Cliffhanger (Third Stage)
Sasuke 19-Paul Anthony Terek.Jumping Spider (First Stage).I honestly think Nagasaki should have worn this number
Sasuke 20-Daisuke Miyazaki. Half-Pipe Attack (First Stage).Should have been Washimi
Sasuke 21-Takeda.Hang Climbing (Third Stage).Even though he timed out on Stage One in the past two tournaments
Sasuke 22-Paul.Slider Jump (First Stage).Should have been Daisuke
Sasuke 23-Hiromichi.Jumping Spider (First Stage) Should have been Kanno
Sasuke 24-Takeda.Spider Flip (Third Stage). The most emotional failure in Sasuke
Sasuke 25-Akiyama.Warped Wall (First Stage)
Sasuke 26-Hashimoto.Metal Spin (Second Stage). I think Lee could be a good candidate for this number since he was last man standing.
Sasuke 27-David Campbell.Ultimate Cliffhanger (Third Stage)
Sasuke 28-Shingo.Spin Bridge (First Stage).Should have been Ryo
Sasuke 29-Ryo.Backstream(Second Stage). Maybe Kanno since he was the last man standing
Sasuke 30-Asa.Crazy Cliffhanger (Third Stage)
Sasuke 31-Nagano(The only time he wore this number). Warped Wall (First Stage)
Sasuke 32-Takeda.Warped Wall(First Stage). Should have been Kanno
Sasuke 33-Nagasaki.Flying Bar (Third Stage) Should have been either Drew or Sato.
Sasuke 34-Kawaguchi.Ultra Crazy Cliffhanger (Third Stage)
Sasuke 35-Drew.Vertical Limit (Third Stage)
Sasuke 36-Darvish.Sidewinder (Third Stage) Should have been Kawaguchi or Drew.
Sasuke 37-Jessie Graff.Cliffhanger Dimension (Third Stage)
#98 is currently the highest not to have a Final Stage attempt and has the highest First Stage clears with 23.It also has the second highest Second Stagw clears with 18.Every All-Star except Bunpei has worn this number

These are my #96-100 for every tournament. I'm sure a lot of people won't agree with me on some of these so feel free to roast me in the comments.

For 14, replace Iketani with Asaoka.
For 15, replace Masaaki with Asaoka.

Forgot about him as he skipped 13 after his final attempt.

Why do Akiyama and Yamada make a surprise appearance at Sasuke 20?

[tns8597]

Because I was running out of options and I figured if there was any appropriate time to give them a high number it would be a tournament that not only followed one where basically no one did that well but also the 20th anniversary.

I know it’s super hypocritical of me as I’ve always wanted numbers to be determined by performance but I honestly couldn’t think of anyone else. Maybe Jovtchev at 98 and Kong at 97? Washimi I don’t think did well enough to justify being above a 96 imo, even if he was last man standing. I think relativity is important but fundamentally he did fail the second obstacle of Stage 2, that he would’ve failed regardless of how hard or easy Stage 1 was, especially as he failed it in Sasuke 18 too.
