"Weird stage transformation"

Alright, I've had things on mute in Melee since this started but these guys don't know the game, do they?

I dont know if you noticed, but Mang0 got HBox mid transformation, were the game still considers you in a platform even if you are at gound level, so Hbox tech roll didnt go as far as it should

Is there any way to watch the ESPN stream online?

might be able to watch it here if you have a cable subscription

Is mango the saltiest man in the FGC ? He literally ripped his controller out in anger and left the stadium

The only one capable of taking Armada out is Hbox.


Let's go, HBOX!

If Mango throws his medal into the crowd, would that be considered thuggery?

[Rice-Eater]

No chance of Melee hitting 200k now Mango is out LOL.

Is he that popular. I was actually hoping Melee would hit 200k because the EVO numbers have been on a bit of a slump this year. I have no idea if SFV will do much better because it might lose a chunk of its audience to Cable/Satellite TV.

 

[Zocano]

guess I can stop watching EVO now.

Easy win for Armada and more boring puff matches.

Evo's audio garbology led to these viewer numbers.

Fire that guy (don't let him volunteer next year).

What time did melee start? Seems like it is going pretty fast

1 hour late than intended time i think? i guess bo3 helps it being fast
edit: oh 30 minutes

It will hit it once Smash is done.

 

[Lucumo]

Smash might actually end on time!

Would have easily made it, despite starting 30 minutes late. But since HBox and not Mango won...now probably not. Just imagine Armada vs HBox, 10 games.

fucking jigglypuff

100 times as salty cause hbox was the one who eliminated him

 

[JoeInky]

Even if I want the upset, I don't think plup can beat armada if he does beat hbox.

 

[Neoxon]

Sagat and Sakura playable

The most Salt

Nah, they'd go for Geese in Tekken 7, first. He'd fit better after they included Akuma.

don't think so

He has an insanely dedicated fanbase and following compared to most of the other top Melee and even Smash 4 players.

Also, OMG PLUP GOT GAME 1.

 

[FZZ]

I refuse to listen to "melee rip" bullshit for another year because you're fav got knocked out by a puff in a at best 65:35 matchup

 

[El Sloth]

this is HBox's year, bois

A lot of the scene dickrides him. He has more than double the number of twitch subs of anyone else. Normally the stream loses at least 10% of the viewers after he is eliminated.

I'd say it's a shame the viewership is down but the event has been pretty shoddy this year so I dunno.

 

[Lucumo]

It will hit it once Smash is done.

Well, the DotA 2 tournament will be finished by then, so...sure.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

view count going down, thank you hungrybox

we only need 7k more for 200k, and then it drops 4k viewers...

 

[VariantX]

Jigglypuff gives a new meaning to the phrase, "Resting bitch face"

 

[sixteen-bit]

Reggie gonna run up on stage for the runback and get carried off by the authorities.

 

[Menitta]

Would that mean Street Fighter, KOF, Tekken, DOA, and Virtua Fighter all take place in the same universe?

He has to make through Plup first lol

 

[Veldin]

Plup is our only hope

 

[A Pretty Panda]

More like it's gonna drop because the good commentators are on espn

Unless everyone decides to leave their stream on

 

[Suzushiiro]

Jesus, did Hungrybox not get enough sleep last night or something?

 

[Mass Effect]

lmao they gave the audience thundersticks?

Yeah, especially with him winning previous Evos and him being "Mr. USA" of Melee.

With him and M2K out I don't think we'll hit 200k, especially if HungryBox makes it to Grand Finals.

 

[The Last One]

The man needs to rest

 

[kuroneko0509]

The man needs to rest

no lies detected there

 

[KingBroly]

Hungrybox making sure he gets plenty of sleep before GF

 

[Baleoce]

Reggie gonna run up on stage for the runback and get carried off by the authorities.

I would pay to see that.

 

[Mass Effect]

Plup pls D:

The dream is dead

 

[BassForever]

Hungry Box about to be devoured again in Grand Finals

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

Really looking like another championship for Armada right now

 

[Aceun]

The man needs to rest

Iono man, he seems to be resting a lot

 

[jman2050]

Yeah this might be over

 

[Zocano]

Really looking like another championship for Armada right now

Armada will body Hungrybox like no other.

 

[WadeitOut]

Hbox has gone from being harassed and bullied by a bunch of douchers in SoCal to the best Melee Smasher in the country. The American Dream.

 

[SmackAttack]

Not like this Plup.

 

[KidA Seven]

Daigo on tv with a few big japanese celebrities
