True, it's just that when Armada and Mango fight it's the closest level of skill meeting seen in smash.

That's why people wanted armada and him to be in the champion finals, because the fight would have been great.

Sadly Armada was fucking around with young link for some reason.

The Peach/Jigglypuff matchup is fucking god-awful. Hbox would trounce him every time, which is why he learned Yink to try to shamelessly camp him out. This is honestly the first time I've seen Hbox beat his Yink.

It was a tricky situation:
I wanted Hbox to beat Armada because, like I said, I've never seen him conquer the Yink before.
But I wanted Armada to beat Hbox so that we could see Mango/Armada again.

Christ, you've got some blood in your stool, friend.

This is the first year the competitive scene has been recognized as legitimate by Nintendo. Since this year went so well (arguably), we can maybe hope that Ninty will start adding in pot bonuses for big championships like this next year.

Hell, the people at Nintendo probably didn't even know that was an option; they've been so disconnected from the scene for so long.

WHERE WERE YOU WHEN HUNGRYBOX WAS REKT AT E3?

Yeah, the powerrankings are tougher now. I think I'd go:

Mango > Armada > HBox = PPMD > m2k

Unfortunately. I was pulling for the King to make waves this year, but he just can't keep his focus for a full tourny anymore, it seems.

And I've always been a DrPP fan, but he can't seem to say anything against Armada these days.

It's one tournament guys. Four days ago he was considered worse than Leffen. There's only so much a guy can move up on one performance.
>>
>>253015990

time for something even more boring than melee
>>
>>253015701
Yeah, Armada is so fucked now that Hbox has figured out his Young Link. He has nothing to fall back to.
>>
>>253016013

He's an effeminate Korean swede hybrid.
>>
>>253016013
He has bonitis. Scarflard even called him out on it and all leffen did was whine and bitch.
>>
>>253016013
Video games are serious business. Just ask DSP.
>>
>>253016081
M2K moved to SoCal with his friend Sky so he can retire from tournaments, and focus on streaming. He doesn't have much longer in him. The stress is getting to him. He'll probably go to SoCal locals but thats about it. M2k is losing his competitive spirit.
>>
>>253016151
Resetting your router again? :^)
>>
>>253016170
He can try Fox and laser camp since he's way more play to win than Mango but I thing Hbox will be able to handle that if he doesn't go full fraud mode.
>>
>>253015896
He's absolutely shit at Melee, but has been improving. And he's one of the best at Brawl.

I think he will be top-15 material in one or two years
>>
>>253016125
It would be Evo 2008 all over again. Which was a total shit show that split Smash from the FGC to begin wtih.
>>
>>253016170
He has a pockect Fox which is pretty good. But I don't want him to fall to the 20XX cancer.(I'm a fox main too). Learn pikachu and become Axe 2.0?

It'd be fucking grand. Low items, no Pokes or ATs or Spicy Curry, no walk offs, everything else is fair game. 4 player ffa added as a separate tourney mode

It'd be exciting as fuck. Melee has gotten stale as it is. The best thing could happen is finding balanced rulings with items and less stage limitations through Nintendo's official sanction which would make people follow a better new standard. Grand finales no items maybe.

I watched that shit and they were all spouting retarded biased shit, their braindead opinions do not dictate who's "considered" top class especially the moron that is Scar, have you heard him commentate? He's a complete joke when it comes to things like that.

Before EVO HBox was coming out pretty even only ever losing to a single stock, now he's got the Young Link matchup down and it showed by him stomping Armada twice.
Three stocks and two stocks out the ass.

>>253017650
It's not like the seeding was unfair. Going by the most recent results you could make the case that Leffen was playing better than Hbox.
>>
>>253017425

it's just the genre of videogame that's insanely popular with black nerds.

I think it's because it screams "masculinity" and has the same elements that attract blacks to DBZ and Bleach.

It's mainly marvel and street fighter though.

Can't fucking deny Mango is a seriously fantastic player.

I'd just like Hungry to win. He played absolutely astonishingly good there winning from a 2-0 disadvantage twice and manages to get to the fifth round in Grand.

Of course, Axe or aMSa would have been even better than that again, but let's be fucking honest for a second: Axe and aMSa would be utterly raped and left for dead by Mango and that's the ugly truth.

>>253017679
The inclusion of items does not equal fun. Items can be fun but slow boring surviving at 220% gameplay is not fun.

I'm just saying. A lot of people thought they were legitimately extending a hand of support to the tourney community, but those people are delusional.

Axe can take pikachu places becuase at worse pikachu is a mini fox with a slightly better upsmash. Yoshi has shit except compared to the top tier except maybe marth.

>Axe would be raped and left for dead by mango

Yeah, no.
aMSa prolly would get fucked though.

Man I seriously can't believe aMSa is retiring
>>
>>253017857
The set Axe had against Mango earlier in the tournament was actually pretty close. 2-1 and Axe 3-stocked Mango in game 2.
>>
>>253017929
Good thing we are talking about items. More exciting to watch imo. Brawl has issues, sure, but items deserve a chance, if anything at least limited
>>
>>253017543
Wobbles needs to come back to commentator more. He's great.

>>253017857
Axe has played Mango extremely close this year.

>>253017617
It does, it's just not huge and you have to remember all the major tournaments are in the US.
So even if it does have a scene, he's not going to make it big unless he travels.

The community has tried items before and it makes the fast characters even more dominating. No items is the reason why jiggs/falcon are even viable. Put them in and they are horrible with most of the cast. The game becomes space furry,space bird, or trangender ninja. Brawl would be even more of a MetaKnight circle jerk fest with items.

Axe and Amsa aren't on the same level at all. Axe is a much better player and plays a better character. Pikachu SHITS on fast-fallers if he can hold his own in the neutral game. Axe nearly beat Mango earlier and 3 stocked him in one of the games. Fox is dead the second he goes off stage against Axe's edgeguarding.

>>253018529
Are you kidding? Most fighting games barely pull in 60k. It's only at 105 thanks to Smashers sticking around.

It's insanity. They tried it with melee. They tried it with Brawl.

>>253019042
Axe was too excited today. The type of whiffs he was making are not the norm. Axe is much stronger in neutral and has a better punish game. aMSa has god like reads but he struggles at adapting and mixing up.

Axe is A+ Class and aMSa is A- Class.
>>
I missed it all today. Please tell me Mango didn't win.
>>
>>253018778
Naw M2K has talked about it on smash boards. Mewtwo gets better with items(high tier if I remeber correctly) but so do the spacies and Shiek too. Mewtwo is shit without an item. The top 3 literally keep all their control options and get the advantages of being able to zone you like a bitch with items.
>>
>>253018958
>Next year it will all be Smash 4
Feels good
>>
>>253018831
There can be a number of possible setups with items. Just because one didn't work and was sworn off forever, doesn't mean something else can't. They would change the entire meta of the game, but that's the point, it's stale as shit. I'd point to 20xx but it won't matter, this December Smash4U takes over and Melee finally dies.

Is Mango objectively the greatest of all time now?

>>253019283

>>253019535

>>
>>253019410
Right now yes.
Hbox showing that 20XX is completely here yet though.
>>
>>253019042
aMSa is right up there in skill with the top 5 gods in my opinion, he just handicaps himself with Yoshi.

If he put the time he put into Yoshi into Fox, we wouldn't even be talking about Mango right now, aMSa would win all the tournaments.

20XX is indeed here and it's worse than I could have possibly imagined. Armada, aMSa, HBox, and Axe need to drop their "unique" characters and just start playing fox full time or else we are going to see Mango literally winning every single tournament.

Fox has reached Meta Knight status and this tournament has proven that. I love Melee but I'm off the bandwagon. It's the same small group of players in the final 8 and it's always mango with Fox that ends up winning. The game is extremely predicable and boring, the ceiling has been hit and it's time to put Melee to sleep.

I can't wait for Smash 4.

I can see how you'd think that, but I'd still put them in reverse, with aMSa being A+ and Axe being A-.
Those aren't thanks to just skill by itself, they're also on the character. Pikachu's neutral is much easier than Yoshi's and Yoshi is an extremely fucking high skill level character having a shit ton of tech that only applies to him and no one else. Pikachu isn't even close to that level.
Put in perspective I think aMSa is the better player, but still hasn't mastered his character. Whereas Axe is a really good player but has much better handle on his character and the options he has.

No he isn't. His punishes suck dick compared to the top 5 and he has a hard time in neutral. He makes some godlike reads though. Come on /v/irgins don't become the mangonation for amsa. I like him but he's not top 10 in melee.

But after watching this latest snoozefest, I'm absolutely through with melee.

It was great seeing Hungrybox doing so well. Much better than I expected. I actually started suspecting he had been sandbagging in previous tournaments to get people to not prepare for him, he looked so good.

People always say he is bad because he uses gimmicks or whatever, but he did some cool comboes, and it is really impressing how he is able to dodge Fox' lasercamping and getting close. Fox just jumps back and forth shooting lasers, and even has an 'Upsmash to win'-button, while Jigglypuff is doing real magic dodging all this and somehow managing to get close, and then pulling off some amazing combos. Hungrybox is really a great player.

They're sworn off because there's no way of knowing where they spawn as well as making the game extremely campy since it practically gives everyone free projectiles at no cost.
I'd like to see them come back though just to know how the metagame for it would really develop.

>>253019761
That's just wrong. Ken was untouchable, Mango has been beaten multiple times.
>>
>>253020175
Axe is literally on the cusp of being an S class player. He has the closest sets with the gods of anyone who isn't one of them. If the five gods are suddenly banned from entering tournaments Axe is the clear favorite at every event.

oh, you mean like with brawl? I admire your optimism, and I can only hope SSB4 has gameplay that just as satisfying/fun/deep as melee (if not more so) but I seriously doubt it. Sakurai has made a couple concessions to the competitive players, but I don't see him allowing any more advanced techniques ever again. It might be a little faster paced than brawl, but I think it'll have the same low skill ceiling. Call me a pessimist

>F-Fox is the best character guys, he always wins
You really don't know shit about the game. Mango is just a great player, he won a shit load of times with Puff, he dominates with Captain Falcon and he does great with Fox. He's also expressed interest in picking up Marth and if he does guess what? He'll continue being great with him too.

Armada has also beaten Mango at times and he definitely struggles with the matchup so if Fox was such a dominant force like Meta Knight was then we wouldn't see the different characters that we saw in EVO because it would have just been 8 Foxes.
>>
>>253021560
He's been playing a lot longer though. I'm surprised nobody knew who he was.

Kind of like nobody knew fucking Silentwolf but everyone was sucking Leffen's dick.
>>
>>253020367
The changes are trying to stabilize the gameplay in terms of balance. They've done a damn good job so far - fox and falco are still above the others, but the gap is much narrower than in melee. They're doing gods work taking melee's gameplay and making almost all characters viable.

fuck zelda though. that cunt can go to hell
>>
>>253019042
Yoshi has character exclusive tech but Pikachu does as well, and Yoshi's isn't as hard as people make it out to be, it's just very different. Saying Yoshi is outright harder to master than Pikachu is absolutely not true. Both are two of the highest skill ceiling characters. Axe's mastery over Pikachu is ridiculous and overall there have been Yoshi's closer to Amsa's level than than any Pikachu is to Axe's level.

Amsa has a lot of trouble when people force him to go on aggresive and approach. Compared to Axe, Amsa has big holes in his play. Amsa's punishes are really good but his neutral game isn't that great. Honestly the MLG and EVO results between the two speak for themselves.

Amsa is an amazing player but he gets by a lot on people not being experienced with the Yoshi matchup and it showed at MLG where the sets were all 3/5 and his opponents kept adapting to him after the first few games.

Thats what happens when you make characters into floaty spacies. The spacies are somewat balanced by the fact that they are combo food for the whole cast. Mario,Pit, and Mewtwo are floaty as shit and hard to combo with stupid recoveries, amazing combo games, good projectile game, etc.

I don't think 20XX is here quite yet, but Mango is making a very strong case for it with his fox.

Armada, HBox, and Axe are the only ones preventing total 20XX domination and out of those only Axe has a real shot of truly stopping it in my opinion.

Armada is a hell of a player and will always be a threat but I think he has hit a ceiling with his Peach. He was pretty even with Mango for a while, but Mango beat him pretty convincingly at MLG and KOC4. I think his era is done.

HBox is also a hell of a player but isn't even close to top tier. He had a very close set with Mango but relied on rest to do any kind of damage to mango and rest is very sketchy and he can't fly on that alone.

Axe is our only hope. He lost to mango sure, but he also totally dominated him in one of the sets. If he can learn to string that skill together for a whole match, he will go places. Axe/Pikachu are going to prevent 20XX and keep Melee at least somewhat interesting for a while.

>>
>>253022352
20XX won't happen because there will always be mindgames and differences in playstyle, etc. There's more to it than just perfecting technical skills
>>
>>253022537
L-cancelling was completely intentional. So were things like DI and SDI, although I don't know if you'd call them advanced techniques.
>>
>>253022537
Only wavedashing, and I guess moonwalking, are unintended consequences.

>different unintended advanced tactics arise from kerfuffle?
Pretty much guaranteed but that doesn't mean they will be useful in actual play.
>>
>>253022704
little did they know brawl was just a shit game with or without items
>>
>>253021891
That just isn't correct. Most everyone has character specific tech, but Pikachu's is absolutely not as difficult as Yoshi's and in order for Yoshi to be any good you have to use all of it in conjunction perfectly without whiffing and you could see a ton of whiffs from Axe on Pikachu that he got away with.

But I don't know enough as I should to be saying things definitively so I'll just let it go, but you really shouldn't imply that Axe isn't also skidding by on people's lack of knowledge of Pikachu.
It'll be an uphill for him now, I'll enjoy the show.

They weren't. The speed and physics of the game were made in such a way that allowed for stuff like wavedashing. Sakurai and co. knew about it beforehand but opted to leave it in. Brawl was tuned to be slower and inclusive as a response. I never really understood why since Melee accommodates slower play.

This was the year Brawl came out, there wasn't some great big split between Melee and Brawl players yet because the game was so recent. This was 100% the Smash community being shit and stealing prizes from literal children.
>>
>>253022216
This isn't true at all.

If you watched his interview after KOC4 you will know that he is a total tier fag. He gets asked about aMSa and says that he is a great player but will never win because he plays a shit character and limits himself too much and he flat out says he would wreck him because Fox has too many advantages.

He also USED to play characters like Jigglypuff yet he became as dominant as he is now once he started playing exclusively Fox. That isn't a coincidence anon. Fox is considered top tier for a reason.

Don't get me wrong, Mango is a hell of a player and IS the best Fox in the world, but he doesn't play Fox because he enjoys Fox and wants to have fun. He plays fox because he is a try hard and wants to win.
>>
>>253022352

>>253023048
Axe said he avoids playing Pikachu, and only uses him in big tournaments, because he don't want people to get skilled against Pikachu. So he is actively manipulating people's matchup experience and is actively thinking about it. This is something Axe is aware of. Hopefully he will continue doing good. I'm hoping Pikachu has just been really underrated and actually has what it needs to stay relevant even when people get matchup experience
>>
>>253023349
> I never really understood why since Melee accommodates slower play.
Same here. I don't understand why others on /v/ argue that sakurai is just trying to cater to the casual audience. The inclusion of in-depth tactics does nothing to prevent casuals from playing in a non-competitive way. Melee was great because it could be enjoyed as a party game AND as a competitive game. Best of both worlds because they're not mutually exclusive.
>>
>>253023505
He owned the world with Jigglypuff for like a year and a half at least. If that's not being "dominant" I don't know what is.

>>
>>253023048
Pikachu still has hard to use things like his up air hitboxes and quick attack that Axe almost never fucks up. He makes Pikachu look easy but even just how little he kills himself with quick attack is a mark of his mastery of the character. Pikachu is also generally difficult to play in the neutral game due to a lot of shitty things like poor reach, worst shield in the game, among the worst grab ranges and almost everything he has being crouch cancelable. Amsa does whiff stuff also, he even admitted his neutral game isn't that good and that he depends on the gimmicks too much.

And Axe isn't skidding by on people's lack of knowledge of Pikachu anywhere near as much as Amsa is on Yoshi. That's a fact. He's been around a long time and almost every top player has played him several times. He adapts and plays around stuff like Armada crouch cancel down-smashing every fucking hit because he's good, and he's much more secure against the top players than Amsa because people knowing how to play against Pikachu doesn't mean they can do anything about his edge-guarding or overwhelming aggressive style of play. Amsa by comparison is a lot more defensive and gimmicky which holds him back when people force him to approach and know how to work around Yoshi's strengths.

Sheik's chaingrab game is far more destructive to mid and low tier characters' viability than the spacies. Spacies are just really good when played optimally because of how many options they have and how fast they are. Sheik is significantly easier to play optimally and her down throw tech chases and needle gimps basically make anyone outside of S-tier unviable.
