Leave Majors to me

are you implying that StarCraft is #2 right now? Because sadly it is not.
It's pretty interesting though, I think in some ways Melee is actually bigger than SC already. The viewership some Melee tournaments get is pretty much never reached by SC, but the SC scene still has a dozen times more sponsors and cash in it. Melee prize pools are a joke compared to SC for example.

Full schedule

go m2k

>Prog

yay

I think I'd honestly be more hyped for m2k to win this tournament than anyone else. Happy2king pop-offs are good for my soul.

Can't wait for Ninty to finally show some love to the Melee crowd with Melee HD.
Really looking forward to the glitch removal so more players will move to Sm4sh.

>pool E17 has a player tagged "Natalie Portman"

Every time I see one of these dumb names I want these players to become Gods of the game just so they'll be on the main stage at EVO in EVO repping the tags "Natalie Portman" and "Douchebag Dave" and "Poop".

>Tfw made a leddit account and trolled the makers of Last Stock Legends, called them lazy and stupid
>Prog shows up and addresses my criticisms in a polite way
>Refers to me as "friend"
I had to delete my account because I felt so bad. The scene doesn't deserve Prog

i'm gonna win evo with the name "i eat ass"

Would rather the melee doubles finish up saturday but maybe it will help m2k if he somehow makes top 8 in wii u

I put a guy called Big D on my fantasy team just for his great tag
also shoutouts to BigDickBandit

Fucking kill yourself, the world would be a better place without you.

I'm pretty new to this. How is mang0 so popular again? He doesn't strike me as very likeable at all.

>no leffen

He has the strongest mixup game, which is the most fun to watch of any of the top 6

That's not good enough, you gotta go with something like:

>eatDAbooty69
>BrownCrownFlounder
>SphincterSucker

youngwaff is on

haven't been paying attention, what happened this time

That already sort of happened back when PPMD's tag was "Dr. Pee Pee".

he and armada dropped crews

PEE PEE! PEE PEE! PEE PEE!

Smoke2Joints

they still did that after

Aggressive, unwieldy play style and an outgoing, boisterous persona.

Has a crews draft ever gone well? I'm so used to being let down by this shit. Always less hype with no regional pride on the line too. That being said

Santi hype

I know

Zhu about to choke once more

did they reserve a ton of seats or something

Whens plup

Melee ended it's last crew after Sm4sh did, and is starting it's next one sooner.

The fuck's the problem?

Because the melee community pretty much raised him. Came in at like 16 and been a top player since. He's also stylish in a time where everyone plays safe

He's the Hero

Zhu beat axe at big house right?

when Mango punishes with Falco

he's like the "cool older brother" (that isn't actually cool by adult standards) to 15 year olds with no friends

...

He isn't I dont know why people like him.
He used to play like that not so much anymore.

pickachew

People are still playing in pools. Those seats are for tomorrow mostly

Sm4sh is not over yet, seems like they'll do Japan vs Mexico/canada/EU and the winner faces USA on the finals, and USA is pissed because they already won vs both and is late as fuck
Melee had a bunch of problems including a one and a half hour delay, and top players dropping out.
Also, tons of breaks between matches and less crews on sm4sh.

Watch him play.

Even if you think his tattoos are stupid, his personality and attitude are adolescent, his fanbase are retarded, and his fat scraggly face is ugly, you can't watch any of his characters play without getting your dick a little bit hard if you love the game. Every character he touches he just goes fuckin bananas with, but unlike others who play in an exciting way, he actually wins.

If you get into the "characters" of the community, he's pretty much the opposite of Hbox in every single way, and the opposite to all of the other top 6 in gameplay. Whereas every other one of them thinks playing "optimally" is executing the utmost neutral safety and then the most efficient possible punishes their characters are capable off, Mango' style is throwing a wrench into everyone's neutral safety so he can get in and push the most creative punishes he can get off on the fly. If you watch him talk about it on stream he pretty much is perfecting his own version of optimization that's equally optimal but just in a different direction.

He's the people player, he can lose but since he plays for the crowd he almost never is actually angry.

Awesome play style and much needed levity for fags who take this shit way too seriously fuck hbox.

Also he's supposed to be super chill irl so most people hate him until they meet him.

On that note 30 minutes to watch a crew battle a few of the players care about is questionable? I'd probably be somewhere playing friendlies.

So...
Hero - Mang0
Robot - M2K
2 Dragons - HBox and Armada
Akuma - Hax$

When the fuck will stupid character loyalists realize that they'll never win tournaments (with at least 2 gods present)

Yea I'm talking to Axe, Shroomed and Plup
Like look at Armada he went from top 5 to quite literally statistically the best Melee player in the world after switching to Fox.

Aw fuck
Another Akuma, PPMD

Who's the other guy on commentary?

axe is a gimmick, i don't think he could pull off fox

>tfw I wanted to tell this guy to kill himself too, but then I thought of what Prog would say if he were watching me right now and saw me telling someone to kill themselves

His character is a gimmick. Axe is probably the most frame perfect player.

Puff Peach against hbox didn't really give him a choice desu

speaking of that cancer we're probably going to have to suffer through it next

DBR's Bob$

Winning a super major is possible with the top 5.
(Fox,Falco,Marth,Sheik,Puff)
Armada dominated the scene before he switched to fox wtf are you talking about?

Plup has potential to win a supermajor if the stars align. Fuck Shroomed does if he gets the dream bracket.

The only person who legit will never win a super major because of his character is Axe.

Axe's Falco is pretty legit though, if not Fox he could pull the bird off with oractice

ooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH

Armada only even really uses his Fox for Jiggs and low bracket shitters. Everyone should have a Jiggs Fox.

Pikachu can't contend with Jiggs and Peach and Ice Climbers, but Sheik is a completely viable solo character to main in current meta. Statistically even better than Marth based on results.

yes

wizzrobe with the kingdom hearts shoes

pretty crazy how easy it is to get these people to write essays

What a shitty day 1

Why do I keep watching majors on fridays

Wiz about to pop off

Puff isn't top 5 falcons better than puff hbox is just really good.

>m2k drops out of sm4sh singles
Will he take 2017 Melee?

>Axe's Falco is pretty legit though

Eh not really.

Axe's Young Link and Falco are insanely technical, but they're not actually that well optimized. His Pikachu is down to a science, especially against spacies, but also for Marth and Sheik. his rinse and repeat edgeguards are basically the Pikachu version of Armada's with Peach as are his punishes/chaingrabs.

His Falco though is more just aimless techskill. It'd be interesting to see him try to optimize his Falco to his Pikachu level though, I think it;d wind up like PP's since his is the most highly optimized in terms of straight taking stocks.

who is this PPMD character people have been talking about? I've been following the game for like a year and haven't seen him once. is he like scorpionmaster? :^)

doesn't matter, puff wins tourneys and falcon doesn't

>tranny on stream

why

Doesn't he do this every single fucking time?
Still rooting for him though.

>Puff isn't top 5
>falcons better than puff

Not according to the tier list.

macd identifies as male

>Armada's lanklet brother on Teamsp00ky
I though he didn't play the game anymore.

MacD isn't a tranny, he's just a flaming homo
At least he doesn't have blue hair anymore

I meant the one commentating pools you hectanigger.

people always talk shit about how MacD plays but he's honestly one of the few peach players that I actually enjoyed playing against

he was probably sandbagging because it was pools though

I missed the beginning of the crews match, how did Zhu do?

does falcon ever not read tech in place

Alright 3 stocks

JIZZROBE

Got bodied hard at first, then came back to only go down one stock against Axe.

Well PP is PPMD who was Dr Peepee and he used to play falco and marth and he ate pizza with his porn star girlfriend but then his penis shut down and now he injects his balls with gelatin and falco is known for his laser game and he actually plays really differently than fox and marth has good disjoints which means that in the second hitbox computation step he gets good hits and pp can use this really well as you can see in this combo video and the music in the combo video is good but the cuts are a couple frames off from where they should be and toph's commentary is bad in the first part but this was in 2010 and i think toph got better than hmw even by 2013 but then he and scar got bad again because they talked about sandwiches too much.

I hate him because he's come to my region (Midwest) a couple of times, but its mainly just fuck one of the TOs and when I asked the TO who was housing if I could maybe chill and do a few friendlies, he told me no and just ended the conversation

>Switch commercial that goes on for five minutes

I'm not gonna buy it Nintendo. You can Clockwork Orange me that commercial for hours on end and I'm not gonna buy it.

(Disclaimer: I'm aware that in Clockwork Orange the objective of the viewing scenes was to dissuade Alex from the subject of the media he was being forced to watch and listen to while being poisoned however I am only using the term in the sense of being put in a straightjacket with my eyes clamped open and forced to watch something. Thanks.)

>m2k and hbox teaming
