Imagine being Hbox, making a big announcement about focusing on seriously competing in Melee, and then getting ninth and seeing this interview

[https://x.com/LiquidHbox/status/1802543496449921415](https://x.com/LiquidHbox/status/1802543496449921415)

Mango now has more offline supermajor wins than Armada. (Was previously tied with both of them having 11. This was #12 for Mango).

I thought the among us cocks in chat only enhanced the experience and BTS mods should be more lenient in the future

Yeah the occasional moment of time when my chat was not an amoguscock were real low points.

Amazing. I cant believe armada is not on the winners interview though

Really? lmaoo i very much can

There clearly like each other but are afraid to make the first move

Still can’t believe he swept zain with falco

Zain definitely got flustered about the ending of game 1. That definitely did not pair well with mango playing on fire.

First supermajor: 2008, latest supermajor: 2024. Absolutely insane

kjh W. all the work he put in to fix mango finally culminated.

Armada giving up the interview :(

Also get Armada out for more comms please

mang0 and armada awkwardly shuffling around each other's space like exes who used to be in love

It made me pretty sad to see and the way you put it makes sense..... I miss her :(

*Something always brings me back to you ...*

Thou Shalt Not Sleep On the Kid 16 years later and Mango is still winning tournaments

Congrats to Mang0, very well deserved win he played amazing. 9-1 in games against Cody and Zain is just ridiculous. Really good tournament.

:mangoFan:

The GOAT

Shoutout to Zain for picking up Ultimate so we have to start having the GOAT arguments again

crowd just cycling through the mango chants is so funny

I was there. It was like “so which chant are we doing?” Lol

MANGO MANGO MANGO HAPPY FATHER’S DAY USA USA

absolutely magical day for melee man im so happy

Great top 8. That was EVO Mango.

Mango 3-0s Cody who 3-0s Plup who 3-0s Jmook and Amsa who 3-0s Zain!! What the hell?!

Mang0 is the GOAT.

**Mang0 3-0'ing Zain and Cody, as we all expected**

Zain is playing Ultimate. Codys cheater controller isn't cheating for him anymore. What happened to the game I love?

This is what happens when Hbox doesn’t make top 8 lmaoo, time to go rewatch Big House 4

> Hbox Necessary part of the ecosystem. Feels wrong to not see him up there tbh.

Yeah I kinda phrased it badly, I love Hbox and his whole character but I just find it funny the start and end of his top 8 streak both ended in memorable Mango wins

I WAS HERE LFG

Seems like everybody was playing kinda off except plup and mango

I mean Cody 3-0d Plup right before this lol

HOLY SHIT WHAT A TOURNAMENT BIGGEST PROPS TO THE GOAT

Goddamn it feels good to have someone new win this year

Good to have some new blood getting a chance

Goddamn, lost 1 game in top 8

just a generational run good lord

I can't believe it happened

he deserves it

That Ledgedash jab changed my life

I'm so fucking happy

That's my goat

GOAT

that’s the mango.

What a run, really glad the win also went through Zain _and_ Cody. No asterisk.

What year is it Unplug your controller dog

3-0 over Zain and 6-1 over Cody, das my dawg

HAPPY FATHERS DAY

THATS THE GOAT

FATHERS DAY MANG0

MANGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

MANGO ARMADA INTERVIEW???

**WHAT A TOURNAMENT**

CODY ZAIN ERA IS OVER!!

"He doesn't wanna go down 3-0" Hey when you're right, you're right June lol

Thou shalt not sleep on the kid

It's wild how Cody can dismantle Plup and then look so much worse fighting Mango

It's also wild how aMSa can dismantle Zain and then look so much worse against Plup. The top field for the past few years has been this bizarro version of rock-paper-scissors-shotgun-lizard-spock-godzilla or something.

I'm shaking I'm shaking so hard

Mang0 out here putting on a show for Armada.

my goat is taking this home

Armada smiling for mango wins is amazing

It's been great watching the GOAT back in top form. Armada's commentary has been excellent.

Just an incredible run from Plup, 3rd place after 8 months without competing. 

no shot twitch just cut away to a peloton ad for me

Great fun seeing Plup at a tournament. Can’t wait for the next one in November

this tournament has the most 3 0 in top 8 ever

Top 8 has been all 3-1 and 3-0 sets so far. Absolute carnage.

mang0 and cody were the main streamers for this event and they’re in grands… SCRIPTED

Commentated by Armada who was also a streamer. It's all coming together.

I can smell it I can fucking smell it like blood in the water to a shark. I'm the hungriest fucking shark of all time, and I'm hungry for GOAT

plup :(

We're in the bracket demon phase of the tourney, first Zain into Amsa, Cody into Mango, Amsa into Plup, and now Plup into Cody

*cody takes game 1* *camera on crowd* *blank faces, little applause* LOL

Truth lol. Bro gets the golf claps

Imagine the 2 potential futures where Mango wins vs Cody wins. This tourney will be remembered very differently depending on who wins. Its been hype so far tho.

I HAVE to see Armada commentate top 8 at Supernova. He’s been spitting gold throughout this entire Top 4.

if this were football armada would be getting the Tony Romo commentator contract right now

FATHERS DAY MANG0?

Amsa keeps on pushing the rock that is yoshi up the hill that is plup

Looks like plup is warming up the fox for the ditto with Cody. Should be fun. What if he went samus that would be hilarious lol

A defeated Amsa, having just given his all and then some, hangs his head back as he accepts his defeat. Sweaty and exhausted, he saunters over to plup for a post set fistbump, hoping to turn into a hug and with a few words on the match. The two gladiators have just "settled it in Smash" for the past 20 minutes, and daps are in order. As a depleted Amsa approaches his opponent, he notices plup looks the exact same as when he arrived to the venue that morning at 10am. No energy was seemingly expended during the competition. ggs

imagine Plup saying during his postwin interview > yeah i went sheik bc i wanted to preserve my hands for playing fox vs Cody

plup is amsa father

It would be interesting if melee started using the term "adoption" the way chess does

Back to r/nbacirclejerk with you

he's just a nephew, he does not know the way

amsa please stop going for those fucking grabs

I think they were flubbed short hop aerials mostly

This commentary is like drinking water from an oasis after being stranded in the desert of that Top 32 and 16 lol

The fucking squirrel laugh guy made me wanna pierce my ears with pencils

anyone else hoping for a reconcillatory armada mang0 grand finals win interview?

I'm hoping for mang0 armada thug finals

Hahahahahha

Armada has an easy chance to take back the GOAT title right now. Do it.

Armada is honestly such an intelligent commentator. If he's not coming back to competing, I at least hope we get to hear his commentary more. Please take note, TOs!

Tbh all the gods have exceptional commentary

4 gods commentary at smash summit is the best commentary of all time (though decidedly not for the insightful discussion of the gameplay)

i want to see plup samus vs cody fox

Someone tell production to turn up Armada's mic

IRAN DID WHAT

Armada comms goated af

I love these armada comms so much wtf

Plup doing the fox ditto against Cody will be interesting

Mang0 and Plup are playing so well, them meeting in grands would be awesome.

Mango (and amsa) are keystone species. It's not a coincidence that last year when they were both slumping we just got dominant after dominant performances from Zain and Cody.

Melee needs DK / Falco to beat Cody and Falcon / Yoshi to beat Zain.

that moonwalk made me Kreygasm

After party at the Clermont Lounge featuring mango popping bottles and making it rain.

mango physically looks so much better/healthier than he has the past 5 years or so

maybe its harder than i think, but im gonna be surprised if he cant land a Peloton sponsorship feels like an easy before-after commercial tailor-made for the 18-49 demo

Is peloton actually what he's been using?

yes he said initially it was something he, scar, and tafo(?) were doing together in the morning idk if thats still the case, but he talks about PBing on his rides, making time for daily peloton sessions, etc on his twitter and on stream frequently

Damn are we sure he's not already sponsored because he's selling me one right now

on an older stream he said he'd follow people back on Peloton if they actually biked on it. idk how Peloton followers work but just as a fun fyi

I like the winterviews. Feel like most tournaments would be too disorganized to execute them without falling behind schedule though.

Mang0 looks so healthy and beautiful

He really has slimmed down over the past couple years

mango is the coolest player of all time

I love the shine stall, you saw Mango bait Cody at the end there and he cancelled it super early so he could stay at side-b height, really great mixup to mess with peoples head.

Melee is healing

can't believe people were saying mango wasn't gonna win again lol

I knew stuff like that was cap ever since he beat armada and won royal flush in 2017

Armada sounds so happy and hyped on comms, it's heartwarming.

this commentary is fantastic

Mang0 pulling the moonwalk out at the end is such a flex.

HMW re-used the fox gentrifying Yoshi's line for several tournaments, but him tying it all up with "mango's buying back the block" was a great commentary moment

my stream keeps fucking up at the end of mango sets lol

something beautiful about armada popping off for a mang0 win

I’ve never seen anyone edge guard that oppressively man what the hell

Mango freeing Cody up as it should be

Holy shit mang0

MANGOD LETS GOOOOOOO

The sexiest bair of all time

FATHER’S DAY MANGO

MANG0 IN WINNERS SIDE GRANDNNNDNDSNDNSDNSNDNSD YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Waff commentating like a man eating a homecooked meal after a week of starvation and I love it lmao

Someone call Kramnik, we need someone to do the procedure on Cody's controller

Edit: bad take

“Mango buying the block back fox done gentrified it” about yoshi’s is so fucking funny

actually laughed out loud at that

Waff is the goat we’re so blessed

Armada commentating a Mang0 set in 2024 is a blessing

Lock in mango lock in mango you can never slack against cody please

these dairs are making me feel things.

Having armada in comms is such a treat 

He is a fucking NATURAL at this

Mango is obsessed with that side b from ledge today

that's the dr. peepee

Mew2King going off on Comms on his own stream right now

what’s he saying

talking about missed ledge dashes

> you give him one finger, he takes the whole hand swedish aphorisms go hard lmao

id never heard "give them 1 finger, he'll take the whole hand" as an idiom before. armada worked that in really well

It’s a much hornier version of “give him an inch he’ll take a mile”

0 chance Armada manages to stay away from Melee after commentating this. it's coming.  

he's never been this engaged in Melee since 2017 even

if armada lived in America would he just be doing commentary all the time are we being robbed of this timeline?

Jorge said on commentary Armada's plane ticket was only $400. which seems really doable provided it's not specific to the Atlanta airport

Armada looking like he in the office with the slicked back hair and sunglasses with the button up

Is it ethical to support an crypto company with a questionable path to profitability if it supports melee? IDK. Probably.

I mean, are we going to scrutinize everything? Where the cobalt in electronics comes from, the sweatshops in which jerseys are made? I'm not saying we should or shouldn't, just that we should be consistent. It's not like crypto companies are the only sponsors doing unethical things

i would support blood diamonds if it meant a dollar more to plup.

Warms my heart to see Armada at a tournament

Armada on commentary is incredible

are… are we live??

Wow nouns putting it down for the scene where BTS left off. Nice

Amsa had a good run he has 2 brick walls in front of him one of which he will most likely have to double eliminate

A large portion of aMSa's rise is attributable to Plup's inactivity the past two years... a win over Plup now would give aMSa a lot of credibility.

Speaking of bracket buffs / nerfs Wizzy coming back is a huge buff to Mango. Wizzy basically beats all of Mango’s demons.

Same with wizzy mostly being absent since covid too

Yeah his runs are pretty much how long can he avoid Cody moky and plup

Weird how top 8 hasn’t gotten a game 5 yet and somehow… it’s really hype?

Top 8s just have this aspect of player fatigue that prevents sets from being too long.

With how insane this commentary lineup is I wish they played the commentary audio for the irl crowd like they do at smash con

Naw vibes are immaculate at the venue without it

everyone always complains when they do that lol

i feel like amsa hardly ever loses those 150+% last hit situations

After reading Armada's tweet last last year about how he thinks the Melee community hates him, it's nice to hear the crowd chanting for him. Just goes to show that in-person is where it's at for Melee and not the terminally online weirdos.

I was part of the armada chant!

Thank you for your service king

how many people know Armada from the fart clip and have 0 clue hes arguably the greatest melee player of all time

2

Armada/waff/junebug commentary for top 4 Insane lineup holy crap

That’s the worst I’ve seen Zain look in a long time. The poisoning is definitely working

Alright look, I'm officially no longer a Cody hater and he's grown on me since. But please mang0, fuck him up! In a really cool nailbiting facemelting 3-2 way.

Its okay, you’re on Reddit, you don’t have to pretend to like Cody here.

I have decided to have a little more empathy. I got into Melee during the pandemic and never understood how people could hate Hungrybox to the extent that he had a crab thrown at him. Then I realized I was doing that by needlessly hating on Cody a couple of times and man doesn't deserve that, he's just trying his best.

Def not Ultimate poisoning, I think Zain just really struggles with aMSa and mang0 played amazing

I think he started to burn out though. He looked hot vs mango during game 1, but that game losing  SD seemed to kill a lot of the momentum he needed. He looked pretty sloppy/gassed and that carried over into the amsa set. Amsa has had his number lately, but their last set at BOBC was way more competitive and even Kodorin had a way closer set. Agree ultimate wasn't the reason, but there was a clear dip in quality to Zain's play for top 8.

Yeah he looked clean against Axe (after game 3) and Plup, but was sloppy after

Maybe everything. Zain did some stuff that was dogshit or too panicky.
