  • Super Smash Bros Melee Is an esport like no other but today we are talking about a trait of all sports the times when reality is better than fiction. The times that things line up so perfectly that you would believe that someone had scripted it, these are the times when melee is scripted.

    Watching Prof one last time was the highlight of the year for me tbh.
    Not Jmook winning Genesis or all the other crazy sets that happend but watching a veteran from the old guard get his deserved send off was the one thing that made me shed a tear tbh.
    The new players are all exciting but watching someone like a Armada or Professor Pro give their all for one last time pulls at your heart strings man.
    Frenzy beating him to show that the UK will keep being represented by the crown holder was Melee full circle to that i can only compare Summit 11.
    It was a nice video that talked about something that i as a spectator deeply cared for and covered it right thank you.
    Btw hope you get more commentary spots :)

      Wait I'm confused wouldn't Zain winning Summit 11 be more like Frenzy winning in the UK, new guard?

      @rannynihilius8481 Před 11 měsíci +3

      @@FirePuff12 mang0 never won a Summit before and that emo tweet from him after losing to Plup made it seem like it was over.
      He and Zain still ended up in grands having the banger set that we wanted and gave the online tournaments legitimacy.
      Mang0 doing one last baller losers run to win the one event he never had conquered by beating everyone and especially both him and Zain overcoming a refreshed Hbox who was trying to proof that he's still that guy in town to having the most energetic and excisting set of all time to start of the post Slippi time was the only time i was fine with the credits rolling for Melee.
      It was full circle for mang0 as the veteran of the game while i think that Genesis 7, 8 and 9 were more so passings of the torch.
      I don't think that there's any other event that can match the vibes Peak was giving off besides Summit 11 and in retrospective maybe Smash Con 2018 because all of them were bittersweet in their own ways.
      Man i love Melee lol.

    I'm so glad u mentioned gtx 2017 grands, the hbox sdi is one of my favorite moments of all time that I never see people mention. I remember everyone loathed hbox armada grands back then, but it was impossible not to feel some type of way about how clutch hbox was.

    The parallel of Evo to Gtx is actually so absurd to see. Very well written video brother

  • @henryreturns1397
    @henryreturns1397 Před rokem +17

    Some storylines are meant to happened:
    - Hbox historic EVO 2016 on Game 10 vs Armada
    - PPMD not playing for 6 months and somehow wins the most stack tournament of that time been Apex 2015 , also that tournament was the last one to have All 5 Gods + Leffen and every top 25 players.
    - Armada with his viking roar win on EVO 2015
    - M2K historic summit run
    - And of course our main character Mang0 , his crazy losers runs , clawing his way from the bottom to the top , and him overall somehow doing it again and again.

    • @btf_flotsam478
      @btf_flotsam478 Před 4 měsíci

      Speaking of Apex 2015, Leffen has a heck of a storyline: after beating Chillindude 5-0, he gets challenged by Mang0 if they meet in bracket to a money match. Leffen then reached Winner's Semis (becoming a god-slayer in the process), where he beat Mango 3-1.

    Prof is a player I’ve barely seen to be honest, but watching him and Frenzy in that last match, I could see the passion in how both players played. And it actually pulled some emotion out of me, which is kind of crazy for a kids party game

  • @x9x9x9x9x9

    Crazy to think Hbox did all that while being the most hated player. Or one of them. Gotta respect the fact he has gone full circle and is now being cheered for. Not my goat but I respect it.
    Frenzy taking it over Prof is such a beautiful end to that saga. Sad to see Prof leave though.

    If you don't hate hbox blindly because of old melee rivalries you must admit that it's WILD to see Hbox play other top players, there's ALWAYS the possibility of an insane comeback, that's why i love watching Mr. Box.

    Prof is someone who is monumental to the melee scene, as much as the 5 gods. I know that he is supposed to compete at Arcamelee and Santa Paws, but the fact that this was his last UK tournament is crushing, and I thank him for being a part of what shapes melee today.

    Your original Prof vs Frenzy video was the first thing I saw from you, and after watching Peak, I just knew you'd make another amazing video about one of Melee's best local rivalries of the past few years. Professor Pro has left an absolutely massive legacy even internationally, (I remember watching him in grand finals of my 2nd tournament Kings of the North IV, 8 years ago) and it was 100% impossible for anyone aware of modern UK Melee to not feel emotional watching him and Frenzy slug it out one last time and then share the mic in a final moment of mutual appreciation. It's a truly beautiful Melee story and you've done a great job telling it in both the past and present!

  • @natan5918

    I always wondered : Is Melee Scripted or not ?
    If the answer is « yes », the script-writers around the globe, from the UK to the US, are just genius writers.
    If it’s « no », then, i guess, the fate is simply on the side of our beloved 20 years party game.
    Thx for your videos Chaler ❤and S/O to Prof 💪

Sad to see him retire but best of luck to him with his future and he will alwasy have a great legacy in Melee ❤

    Nowadays lots of us love to gush about Crush.
    His story unfortunately ended abruptly and unexpectedly in the middle of 2018, but I think it had an astounding amount of momentum still even up to that point, which I feel is because of his tournament win at the end of 2017 with Holiday Bash, where he beat Westballz, Sfat, and other mid-level bosses to win the whole thing, cementing his place as a legitimate competitor.
    If he had never got a big win like that, specifically hot off the heels of his famous Summit inclusion, then I don't think he would have become as solidly a legend now as he has today, because even despite his charisma, at the end of the day, skill matters---and he proved it December 2017.
    In fact, I think without Crush winning that tournament, I don't think that year in Melee specifically would have been as memorable.
    Crush really demonstrated how important personality matters. He went from a relative unknown on the national level to one of the most talked about names even post-retirement, in only about a year of competing in the spotlight. Yet if his career had only been a string of local wins and outside-top-8 major finishes, without this Holiday Bash win, then he'd have been remembered as just a quaint anomaly rather than a major loss to the scene---I don't know how many people exactly think that way, but read anywhere about him in the past couple years and that's the sentiment which will come up again and again.

    Of course it's scripted. The winners of war get to write the history of the game. If the same person wins too much, it's unhealthy for the game (ie. Zero in Smash 4).
    Mango tells Armada at Battle of Five Gods interview that he needs to lose sometimes for the sake of the game. czcams.com/video/j5Zs6MIdi7M/video.html
    Armada caught DI'ing up after getting upaired by Leffen - czcams.com/video/svB2l2m26zM/video.html

    As a Hungrybox fan, I think even despite his eventual domination after the fact, EVO 2016 was the peak of his story.
    It's well remembered how hated he was in the time leading up to then, although that faded over time afterward and has evidently turned even into widespread love. But back then, of the 4 competing gods, he was both the underdog and the villain.
    To see him not only win on the biggest stage of all, against the biggest threat of them all, but to clutch victory from the jaws of defeat (I thought it was over near the end of game 5 of set 1), was truly cathartic. It validated the HFam and cemented Hungrybox's place as a true God, not just a jobber to the better gods.
    It was a culminating pivotal moment.
