+Not William Magardician I only stated that whenever Hbox is playing super on-point. You're correct that he did play pretty bad against Armada and Mang0 lel
Mark B. They both love playing each other. Mango after the set "I love going in against armada, its a thrill I either get 12% or die" i thought that was pretty funny
Yea they're talking about mango entering grand finals in losers and beating armada 2 sets in a row to win the tournament, which he hasn't done since Genesis 1
Correct. I remember watching this and showing it to my friend who doesn't really watch smash later that week and he was blown away. The end of the 2nd place master.
Sadly but yeah, I guess that mango deserves this, and at the end, Armada said that he can't be too hard on himself after all this time that remained unbeatable. Though, its pretty funny for me to see how everyone goes crazy when Armada doesn' win, like , if melee isn't about the rivalries anymore, instead, it's just about not letting Armada win XD.
Favorite moments: 19:56 Mang0 survives the insurvivable 20:11 Member of the crowd screaming the most terrified "NO!" I've ever heard 20:30 Mango's reaction when he resets the bracket 37:53 Mang0 dash-dances into charged upsmash 37:57 Waffles and Phil poke fun at the crowd rooting for Mang0 39:08 Waffles and Phil try to guess what's going on based on in-game sound 42:24 Waffles and Phil got hope into "uhh maybe not?" 45:55 Mango's face when he realizes he's won
>Be me, Armada >Be best melee player in the world >Undefeated in 2017 >Go to Royal Flush. Just another day in the office. >Get to GF winners side. Start thinking about celebration. >Fat man alcoholic who I beat already makes it to GF. Well, ok. >Fat man wins set 1. Alright, alright I need a bathroom break. >Game 5 set 2. How is this happening? >Fat man wins set 2. Fucking Alex19 rushes stage. >"What the fack."
this was top 5 most hype sets of all time in melee. if you're watching this from any time non recent, you don't understand the energy that was in the air from all platforms watching, at the event or commentating. this needed to happen to melee.
Not only did they go 2-1 in sets and play all possible 15 games, but at the end Mango hugs Armada, and even as the crowd celebrates with Mango, you see Adam smile. Obviously both players wanted to win, but in the end they were just happy to push one another’s limits and have a good set.
Can you guys imagine how crazy scar would've gone when he saw the mangle at the end of game 5 first set if he was commentating? Let's go Mang0 back on the board.
If that was a movie that was the greatest one I've ever watched. Fox the hero against the archvillian Peach. 19:54 When Armada faired him off stage into the abyss and dropped down everyone knew it was over. But while Mango was down there its like time stopped.. and the Melee gods or sakurai or whatever higher power spoke to Mango and said "this is your last chance kid." And the rest is history.
9:54 What they say here is exactly it. Later in one of his analysis Mang0 will reveal that Tafo told him to go marth on FD so he wouldn't feel bad if he lost. Coaching top players isn't just telling them the best thing to do but it's also knowing psychology.
man, for some reason i love armada i mean even he hasnt the people, he lives with it. he has way more respect than leffen. smash love and bad english from germany✌
Im glad Armada didn't take another tournament, its been so long since hes been dethroned. and while i think Mango is the best person to take the W I actually want to see some new blood control the top spots. Leffen has been slumping and I can't wait to see if he has the GOML plot armor like mangos mothers day armor.
Best Grand Finals this year, and is competing with Mango vs Leffen @ G4, Mew2King vs Plup @ Summit 2017, and Wizzrobe vs Hbox Set 1 @ Rivalries for Set of the Year (so far)
Mango vs Leffen probably had better play overall but this set A. Had fucking amazing play and B. Meant something to melee. B1. Mango is not in fact a washed up alcoholic mario kart streamer and B2. ARMADA BLEEDS HARD.
Can't believe Armada was playing like this back in 2017. Hope he can return sometime in 2021 where everyone seems to be playing with a crazy punish game.
My favorite part rewatching this is seeing Armada's smile while Mang nation rushes the stage at 46:00 a competitor, with a true love for the game and community :)
19:56 people like to say armada got greedy here, but ive seen him do this exact combo so many times. Pretty much every fox up b's immediately after the first fair but mango is fucking crazy and dipped extra low to avoid the fair
45:55 Seeing even Mang0 being surprised by his upsmash hitting Armada put a smile on my face. He couldn't believe it. Like "I did it??? I FUCKING DID IT!!!!"
I'll always say that this is the greatest set of the modern era of Melee, rivaled only by Grand Finals of Apex 2015 and EVO 2016 - interestingly, Armada lost in each one, perhaps a testament to how important he is to this game's history. Each of those victories meant so much to those respective players and their own struggles and triumphs at the time. This is what I think of when I think of Melee.
I mean Amanda when he retired was the goat. And since 3 years after your comment which took like 2 more top 5 melee sets of all time by melee to make it way more comman that mang0 is just the goat. It shows how dominant Armada run was
@@hibiki8473 I'm actually happy to be reminded of my comment and this set from 5 years ago, especially just after Mango claiming another Summit haha Big House 6 comes to mind as another top-tier Mango/Armada grands from this era. I'm curious what you think those new all-time sets of Melee were, since then? In my opinion, they were Big House 9 grands and Summit 11 grands... which, interestingly enough, featured Mango/Zain It's kinda funny how both Armada and Zain are in some of the best sets of Melee history, but both of them lost. Almost like they were the final boss... and yet, time and time again, Mango does the impossible :')
47:33 Feels fucking good man. We can all be friendly with each other, as long as we have a greater goal in mind. All you "fans" out there, quit starting shit/beef with each other and instead, HUG IT OUT MOTHER FUCKERS!
was the dash attack at 30:38 a di mixup with head hitbox so that mango would di away to avoid a followup but instead got hit by the arms hitbox and got sent offstage at a low angle?

2015- Press Start
2016- Dreamhack Austin
2017- Royal Flush
Proof that Mother's Day Mang0 > Prime Armada + Prime Hungrybox
+Not William Magardician I only stated that whenever Hbox is playing super on-point. You're correct that he did play pretty bad against Armada and Mang0 lel
lol mothers day is the wrestlemania to mango's undertaker
James Olsen really?
Mommy's boy Mang0 is undefeatable.
45:26
" It's not over, It's Armada! "
Truer words have never been spoken from a Melee crowd, lmao.
43:39 Can we appreciate the fact that he double-lasered with fox in game five?
I rofl’d when I saw that
#gongibongi
Holy fuck how was it not over at 19:56
Graham Jeffe holy fuck you're right
Adam got greedy. He definitely could've ended it there, but nerves rushed him.
Plot armor
Graham Jeffe aren't you the guy who spoiled the GF set in the last upload?? Fuck you.
Lmao shoulda been watching!!!
Definitely some of the best Melee I've ever watched. These sets reminded me why I love this game.
Good stuff to both players, this was amazing.
Shiny Hunter Hunter bet if armada won you wouldn't be saying this lmfao
narutouzumakijoshua Lmao what? Armada is my favorite player in this game
I like how you can tell that Armada is enjoying himself.
Mark B. They both love playing each other. Mango after the set "I love going in against armada, its a thrill I either get 12% or die" i thought that was pretty funny
Mang0 so drunk he hugged Hbox.
mang0 was sober
You're fun at parties.
You know who's not fun at parties
Hbox lmao
GOT EM!
Mango is always drunk
I think that was the first time mango hugged hbox
I believe they hugged at the end of one of their Evo sets, though I can't remember which.

Pineapple That's how you know that love was in the air
Twitch streamer takes two sets off the #1 Melee player in the world!
Turx I fucking love this meme.
Turx Mario kart streamer*
I think its funny how a god beating a god is an upset, that shows how good Armada is, props to Mangdeezy though.
Camera man is on fucking point.
White Glint ikr. Camera man needs more love
When he circled around Armada and turned to sink into the screen.
this confirmed the legend of "mother's day mango"
one of the greatest sets of all time
"When's the last time he did it from losers?"
"literally like Genesis 1 bro"
Big house 6, literally play 15 games against Armada
Randomchallenger Mango won tbh6 from winners
Randomchallenger Mang0 got to grands in winners, then lost the 1st set to Armada 3-1 which put him in losers, then won 3-2.
Yea they're talking about mango entering grand finals in losers and beating armada 2 sets in a row to win the tournament, which he hasn't done since Genesis 1
He was in winners bro, check before you comment.
This set is an instant classic, I can see it being in the smash history books 10 years into the future.
uplm I swear lol
On the right track to being so
You were right
All time hood classic
Correct. I remember watching this and showing it to my friend who doesn't really watch smash later that week and he was blown away. The end of the 2nd place master.
Armada's streak ended by a washed-up, alcoholic, overweight Mario Kart streamer!?
mhm .3.
Sadly but yeah, I guess that mango deserves this, and at the end, Armada said that he can't be too hard on himself after all this time that remained unbeatable. Though, its pretty funny for me to see how everyone goes crazy when Armada doesn' win, like , if melee isn't about the rivalries anymore, instead, it's just about not letting Armada win XD.
Drazen ECKSSSS DEEEEEEEEEEE
Octavio Gonzalez RIP the meme.
+SuperCatacata I prefer ecks dee over twitch emoticons or the gay-ass crylaugh face.
Easily the best grand finals of the year. Happy Mother's Day everyone
Tbh this GF was even better than BH6 when Mango turned to the crowd.
my two favorite mango tournies ever
Sat on the vgbc uploads page for 5 minutes refreshing just to see the pop off again
Can we make this an emote please? imgur.com/a/9yHsK

It's not over; he got greedy

A. A. Ran lol
A. A. Ran hard
HAHAHA I did not expect that to be so amazing best time stamp I've clicked in a while
A. A. Ran lmao
fuck yeah
You could tell even Armada was happy that Mang0 won. After Mang0 popped off, Armada's face was like "welcome back."
>Be me, Armada
>Be best melee player in the world
>Undefeated in 2017
>Go to Royal Flush. Just another day in the office.
>Get to GF winners side. Start thinking about celebration.
>Fat man alcoholic who I beat already makes it to GF. Well, ok.

They considered lifting him until reality set in.
W
Still my favorite grands even 6 years later
This is the OLD Mang0 we all now and love.
I wish I saw the chat when he won. It would've been amazing.
Lloydin theVoid it really was bro
you can still go back in the VOD on twitch, twitch . tv / vgbootcamp and go to that moment, everything was insane :D
Lloydin theVoid there is a chat replay option
A whole lotta "YESSSS" and "MANGOOOO"
Check the vods, they come with the whole twitch chat by the side of the video there.
Out of all the years I've lived as a diehard sports fan, this tournament was by far the hypest I've ever gotten for a W. LET'S GO MANGO
Only moment that compares to me was Cavs winning in 2016 as a lifelong Cavs fan.
I actually teared up a little because I was so happy mango won and I'm a little baby
HisOwnMeka if this vid was a little longer you'd see the girl crying as she hugs mango
shout out to shannon
same
I wanted Armada to win. So don't see Fox winning again.
Savan Chandul That is the dumbest shit ive ever heard. Fox hasn't won a huge tournament in a long while.
this was top 5 most hype sets of all time in melee.
if you're watching this from any time non recent, you don't understand the energy that was in the air from all platforms watching, at the event or commentating. this needed to happen to melee.
The presence of mind and knowledge to know that up smash would work after the falling nair on battlefield first set is amazing
Not only did they go 2-1 in sets and play all possible 15 games, but at the end Mango hugs Armada, and even as the crowd celebrates with Mango, you see Adam smile. Obviously both players wanted to win, but in the end they were just happy to push one another’s limits and have a good set.
This was one of the greatest sets of all time, I can't stop rewatching it.
How the fuck can a washed-up has been Mario Kart streamer beat the current #1 player in Melee in two sets, let alone consecutively?
Focus, Commitment, and Sheer Effing Will
Because washed up is a meme and mang0 getting first isn't really new in the grand scheme of things.
Matt October duh doi
+Matt October The joke went over your head like that botched edgeguard at 19:56
omfg
The MacD practice payed off.
yeah I almost forgot. macD is like the prince abu of peach.
There are like a thousand Peaches in the world though
True. I guess only time will tell if this streak of his can keep going. Truth be told, he almost looked like Armada's fox here.
like armada theres only one, so thats one reason why he always win, noone is prepared for it
GateKeeper ZUUL actually he lost two. can't forget drunk Armada losing
HMW's and Phil's commentary gives me life! The perfect mixture of great Melee and jokes. 👌🏼
This was so much fun to watch live, back and forth the whole way.
Legendary set between legendary players. Definitely the best Melee I´ve seen in a while.
Mother´s day Mang0 is busted.
Mango gained shit ton of techskills......from Mario Kart
48:17 That smile is the most wholesome thing ever.
Can you guys imagine how crazy scar would've gone when he saw the mangle at the end of game 5 first set if he was commentating? Let's go Mang0 back on the board.
DAMN mangos pop off at the end... Never sleep on the kid...
Finally an actual anime battle between Mango And Armada.
We finally got him! The old Mango! Wave-shining Peach Mango! XD
"Mango's coming from loser's side, right??"
*Sees video is 48 minutes long
".... so you're saying there's a chance..."
If that was a movie that was the greatest one I've ever watched. Fox the hero against the archvillian Peach. 19:54 When Armada faired him off stage into the abyss and dropped down everyone knew it was over. But while Mango was down there its like time stopped.. and the Melee gods or sakurai or whatever higher power spoke to Mango and said "this is your last chance kid." And the rest is history.
If Armada just stays on the ledge, this game is over. 19:56
People say Mother's Day plot armour, I see Mang0 channeled the sprit of Mingee.
Excellent commentary from Phil and HMW. Perfect balance of hype and commentary.
Watching this live was absolutely bonkers. One of the best grand finals in melee history in my opinion.
Never underestimate the power of the script.
that mango pop off at the end was all the built up tourney losses by armada in one burst I loved it
Thank you for the speedy uploads
IMHO one of the best and most important sets in all of Melee history.
Hypest tournament we've had in a looooooong time.
Props to the post pop off camera man
Best tournament ever. Love you melee 😭
9:54 What they say here is exactly it. Later in one of his analysis Mang0 will reveal that Tafo told him to go marth on FD so he wouldn't feel bad if he lost. Coaching top players isn't just telling them the best thing to do but it's also knowing psychology.
Mother's Day Mang0
man, for some reason i love armada
i mean even he hasnt the people, he lives with it.
he has way more respect than leffen.
smash love and bad english from germany✌
Blitz_is_LOVE Ally he's actually from Sweden just sayin
Aaron Sanchez yes i know
am i not allowed to love a smasher from a different country than mine;)?
well, then ice is the only smahser i will be cheering for😂
Blitz_is_LOVE Ally oh I'm sorry I thought you meant he was from Germany and not yourself
Watched this set so many times, yet I still hold my breath on game 5
I remember popping off so hard this entire Grand Finals. Mango making an amazing comeback.
I never knew Dave grohl was so good at smash
Im glad Armada didn't take another tournament, its been so long since hes been dethroned. and while i think Mango is the best person to take the W I actually want to see some new blood control the top spots. Leffen has been slumping and I can't wait to see if he has the GOML plot armor like mangos mothers day armor.
dawg im so fucking happy.
One of the greatest Melee sets of all time
This was an amazing set and Royal flush was pretty cool too.
the new Mario Kart 9 game looks great
I LOVE THE NEW MANGO
Best Grand Finals this year, and is competing with Mango vs Leffen @ G4, Mew2King vs Plup @ Summit 2017, and Wizzrobe vs Hbox Set 1 @ Rivalries for Set of the Year (so far)
Damn this set didn't feel like 48 minutes when I was watching it. Great games.
One of the best pop offs in Melee history
So, does this surpass Mango v Leffen @ Genesis 4?
SgtTreecko hell yeah
I'd say it rivals to Hbox vs Armada at EVO 2016. Game 10 all the way baby!
I don't know, take out the personal history and just focus on the game at hand and the Mango vs Leffen set was in my opinion way more exciting.
Mango vs Leffen probably had better play overall but this set A. Had fucking amazing play and B. Meant something to melee. B1. Mango is not in fact a washed up alcoholic mario kart streamer and B2. ARMADA BLEEDS HARD.
SgtTreecko Not even close. Maybe from Mango's side but the match itself was higher at Genesis.
gimr with the immediate uploads!!
45:23 when someone from the crowd shouts "It's not over!"
Goosebumps
I MISSED THE OLD MANGO AND NOW HES BACK
HE BLEEDS!!
the best commentary of all time !!!
Can't believe Armada was playing like this back in 2017.
Hope he can return sometime in 2021 where everyone seems to be playing with a crazy punish game.
Armada such a good sport in the end
Fantastic melee. Life is great.
My favorite part rewatching this is seeing Armada's smile while Mang nation rushes the stage at 46:00 a competitor, with a true love for the game and community :)
I wasn't exactly bawling, but after game 10 I cried a little. Tears of joy
19:56 people like to say armada got greedy here, but ive seen him do this exact combo so many times. Pretty much every fox up b's immediately after the first fair but mango is fucking crazy and dipped extra low to avoid the fair
Man I miss Phil on the mic.
the king is back bby
45:55
Seeing even Mang0 being surprised by his upsmash hitting Armada put a smile on my face. He couldn't believe it. Like "I did it??? I FUCKING DID IT!!!!"
I haven't watched competitive melee in a year plus. When did they come out with these two monitor setups for competitors? That's pretty sick.
Happy genesis
Is armada washed up?
DeanHakimia are you trippin? He beat Mang0 and the rest of everybody for straight 8 months. If anything he's at his prime.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe's_law
Nah, he's soiled down now.
amazing response
Baited so hard lmfao
I'll always say that this is the greatest set of the modern era of Melee, rivaled only by Grand Finals of Apex 2015 and EVO 2016 - interestingly, Armada lost in each one, perhaps a testament to how important he is to this game's history. Each of those victories meant so much to those respective players and their own struggles and triumphs at the time. This is what I think of when I think of Melee.
I mean Amanda when he retired was the goat. And since 3 years after your comment which took like 2 more top 5 melee sets of all time by melee to make it way more comman that mang0 is just the goat. It shows how dominant Armada run was
@@hibiki8473 I'm actually happy to be reminded of my comment and this set from 5 years ago, especially just after Mango claiming another Summit haha
Big House 6 comes to mind as another top-tier Mango/Armada grands from this era.
I'm curious what you think those new all-time sets of Melee were, since then? In my opinion, they were Big House 9 grands and Summit 11 grands... which, interestingly enough, featured Mango/Zain
It's kinda funny how both Armada and Zain are in some of the best sets of Melee history, but both of them lost. Almost like they were the final boss... and yet, time and time again, Mango does the impossible :')
Set of the year.
Mango for president leg-o
Dash President Marquez. its got a nice ring to it
Kit Schulz Wasn't that the president's name from "Cory In The House"?
Bobby Trill lol idk ive actually never watched cory in the house
Kit Schulz absurd
THE ONE TRUE GOAT!
Omg, fricken love the commentary haha
21:03 I love the rockstar moment of Armada walking off in leather jacket lol
47:33
Feels fucking good man. We can all be friendly with each other, as long as we have a greater goal in mind.
All you "fans" out there, quit starting shit/beef with each other and instead, HUG IT OUT MOTHER FUCKERS!
Mango will always be the people's champ, it's Mango season 🦋
Wow, the end of that first set was a literal miracle.
was the dash attack at 30:38 a di mixup with head hitbox so that mango would di away to avoid a followup but instead got hit by the arms hitbox and got sent offstage at a low angle?
Melee HD. 15 more years
Yeah about that.... 🙈
Peach vs Marth game shows how much skill and game knowledge Armada has OMG its insane
If I ever want to have a heart attack I now know what to watch. WHAAAAAAT a grand finals!
woo mango nation doesnt have to re watch this every week now
