I'm really contemplating not watching the Super Bowl because of Apex lol. That Melee stream was way too good. I can't wait until it starts again.
 
Any one have a link to brackets or something for smash 4 so I can follow what's gone on so far and who is in the last 32?
 
Yo is ZeRo gonna win Smash 4 or what

Also I want aMSa in top 8 for Melee, it's my dream. But it will never happen.
 
The chillin salt on the smash reddit is my energy.

It is my life.

I need to check that out, I knew Leffen was going to win, but that was pure domination. Felt bad after the 3rd match. I think Chillin is letting his pride get to him, Melee's skill depth is so high between players that he had to know after the 2nd match that Leffen was on a completely different level. If you play Melee competitively you start to read players' levels.

Woah what happened to all the Luigis? False and JMills got knocked out?

False is in, but he mains Sheik

lol JMiller, getting too hype over him winning a tournament where 2nd and 3rd were cyve and Leffen

edit: also I love how even though it's top 16 the bracket title still says top 32
why did they play out top 32->top 16 though?
 
False is in, but he mains Sheik

lol JMiller, getting too hype over him winning a tournament where 2nd and 3rd were cyve and Leffen

False doesn't main Sheik? He's been playing Luigi all APEX and before as of recent.

Any good Villager play today?

None were very good, imo. Yours is a far better spacer and controller than anything that showed up at APEX. I could say that for a lot of the roster that showed up, actually.
 
FUCK, anyone wanna play melee netplay? I'm average/below-average and itchin to try to not suck after that.

How bad is the lag? I haven't bothered getting the hack pack since all my roommates play Melee and we got cubes, but I'm thinking of getting a wii just for it. Is it better or worse than playing on a HD TV?
 
One day of apex has destroyed my sleep schedule. The hype is too real, I doubt I'll wake up at 9am to catch the stream when it starts. Well here's to hoping lol
 
What's the update folks? Only round 1 of top 16 was finished? Pretty interesting that only a few Diddy mains made the top 16 lol.
 
what is this, Brawl

(he mains Sheik)

Melee character usage (mains only, other characters will be noted):

Sheik (6): Shroomed (also uses Doc), KirbyKaze, M2K (has Marth for spacies, Fox for Jigglypuff), Swedish Delight, Drephen, Tafokints
Falco (6): Westballz, Larry Lurr, PPMD (also uses Marth), Zhu, Th0rn, KJH (also uses Fox)

more Luigi and Samus then Jigglypuff LOL

Did Plup not attend? Would surprise me if he was knocked out, and I thought I saw him in there when I looked over the pools.
 
I feel bad for Chillin, his face had that look when a professional player that's never made it to the highest levels realizes he'll never make it in the big leagues. All that training, all that preparation, and your best still isn't nearly good enough for reasons out of your control.

He bought it on himself, but still, that must suck.
 
Lol, Chillin's new Wikipedia entry is hilarious: http://www.ssbwiki.com/Smasher:Chillin

In case it gets removed, here's what it said.

"Chillin (also known as chillindude829) was an American professional smasher. He died during apex 2015 after he got rekt in his infamous money match 0-5 against Leffen, May he rest in peace."

Topkek.
 
Lol that entry is pretty brutal. But hey Atleast he has a Wikipedia now lmao

His rap is probably available for download somewhere. So crazy he didn't win one match lol. All those people watching lol
 
okay just caught up via the archive

colbol vs. bizzaro flame was probably the most hype pools match of the day. holy christ.

salty suite was awesome, as expected. the ganon ditto was awesome and hilarious. colbol vs. westballz truly was goku vs. vegeta. leffen vs. chillin was a 5-0 slaughter as expected.


by far my favorite set was PC vs. Ken. Their sets at MLG in 2006 were what got me into competitive Smash, so seeing those two play again nearly 10 years later at the biggest Melee tournament of all time was something very special. PC busting out the Falco and proceeding to do work was waaaaaaaaay too good. I marked out when Ken started countering. Hit me right in the nostalgia. All they needed to do was take game 5 to Mute City :P

Speaking of marking out, you could not have had a better end to the day than the $1000 call out by Mango to Leffen. Which, by the way, is the #1 most upvoted topic on Reddit right now. Now THAT is a hype matchup that can go either way, unlike Leffen vs. Chillin. SO EXCITED FOR TOMORROW.

Now I'll be getting my 5 hours of sleep, and it's back to stream monstering.
 
Link/timestamps needed.

10 hours 38 minutes in

Every matchup in the top 48 first round of Melee bracket is INCREDIBLE. my god I wish they could stream it all.

also they got smash 4 all the way down to top 16? woooooooooow. why did spooky change over to Pokemon? Are there any good, later tournament sets available anywhere or were they all played off stream?
 
Pokemon is so wack. I left the stream when they did that.

Played the shit outa red yellow gold now it's just omg now there's like 800 Pokemon. Plus the battles are boring to watch. Pokken fighter looks way more interesting.
 
I need to go back and watch pokemon, was pretty interested in it but the salty suite got in the way, I watched some after each match and felt bad for them, because, well the hype was echoing all throughout the place, the commentators would sometimes lose focus because of it
