8 announced players for smash invitational

Notes:

from left to right: MKleo, ZeRo, Armada, Abadongo, Plup (with his cat), Mr.R, Lucky & Mang0.

i'm admittedly shock that we have equal players from each game (4 melee & Wii U players) and the fact that 5 of them are non-american players which is good. but the one that caught me off guard was Mang0 being invited in this invitational, Nintendo & Sakurai must have a lot of faith in this smash game if they're bringing in Mang0 of all players seeing how he's a exclusive Melee player & that he's not a very Esports heavy guy.

although I am surprised that Hungrybox, Nairo & Mew2King weren't invited at all especially M2K who's arguably the most iconic smash player & the one who supports all smash games in general.
