@@SassInYourClass eh, "falling for" implies it's some sort of bait or trick, but it isn't. It's literally just an execution test. If you do a bad aerial on shield, you get hit by up b, and if you do a safe aerial a good Bowser won't up b oos (most of the time).
The one year I played competitive smash, I was always told. "You could be the best on the team playing the worst in the league and you could lose. Sometimes you're opponent is just on it and you aren't, it's life"
Well there's only one winner and one loser so it's only natural that you either win or lose. And you're not gonna win every single game. Even the gods sometimes lose against newcomers or just random players who come outta nowhere. It's about enjoying that flow state, not winning or losing.
@@HeftyDan "I'm just playing bad today" is such a great thing to become comfortable with because you can actually apply it to basically any skill- or practice-based activity. Making peace with the fact that sometimes you'll have off days for no real reason is very liberating
losing 7 games a row in melee is just an average 20 minute sesh vs someone 15% better than you. no need to get frustrated losing in melee if the opponent isn't bming. it isn't about winning - the person who beat you regularly gets bodied just the same. it's about what you learnt
He was lost quite literally, as in, he wasn’t even really locked in for that match until after that rest. Still looked lost regardless, didn’t even really have a true rest setup
bowser's wavedash often looks like shit because it's really fucking jarring playing bowser after playing... literally any other character so the only people who can actually do it consistently are the people who _only_ play bowser, which isn't exactly what id call "common" it's actually surprisingly long if you hit max length and is very good defensively because of how low he crouches during jumpsquat
It's 20bb, someone was finally masochistic enough to lab bowser to the point they could start winning. Every top cut is super heavy mirror matches, with donkey kong mains scrapping it out for the 16th top cut spot.
That fsmash in the beginning fed FAMILIES. I'd honestly recommend trying more Uptilt at last stock situations like that it can poke puffs shield pretty good. Other than that this is why you're our best rep.
Bowser has the fastest active invincibility on his air dodge. Can be okay to air dodge land into fortress as well as wave land into it. You played so well dude. Love the full hop nairs occasionally to own space above. Love the cc up tilts, love the sharking. Well done not ever klawing too. You know hbox would not give you those.
This was honestly a great back and forth, liked how even though HBox was down 2 stocks he almost pulled back through. If it weren't for the title I'd have no idea who'd win.
It's a good playstyle for Bowser tbh. Hungry couldn't even touch the ground. Just zone and guard the floor and eventually your opponent has to land back in your territory
The fact that you can win majors with this character and still be this bad and lazy with your play style is proof Jigglypuff is obviously a mid tier struggle character, poor hbox his life is so difficult
Bowser, despite being the worst character, does have an X factor. You see him as the worst character, and you as the "true god of smash", you get hella overconfident. That, and Hungrybox has probably fought S tiers like Fox and Falco thousands of times. The amount of times hes fought a Bowser who can wavedash is probably in the single digits.
it's not like hbox is doing nearly the same damn thing with bair or anything melee players are dumb. if you aren't spamming your best tools, you're playing your character wrong look at fox and falco. shine and dair.
Especially after hbox spent years pretending people hated him when they just hated his character, which is significantly lamer than Bowser especially the way he used to play her
@@MegaStunfiskandHatI dislike HungryBox as himself due to his crummy attitude when losing and lack of sportsmanship in general. Him breaking his own foot and hand on separate occasions while “popping off” is seen as humorous when really it’s just kind of pathetic. He’s a great player, and he’s also really annoying.
@MegaStunfiskandHat I mean, didn't some guy throw a live crab at him or something to that effect? Melee community definitely hated him, and I think most annoying goes to leffen. That guy is insufferable.
@@Stare20as much as I hate both of them I have infinitely more respect for hbox than leffen because hbox actually took the hate in stride and even became the number 1 player in the world for a time, whereas leffen takes a fraction of what hbox does and cries about it incessantly as if he doesn't deserve it for being the scumbag that he is
Did he tho? He seemed to handle it just fine in these clips. Like, sure he wasn’t in a great mood, losing to a bottom tier in bracket will do that to you, but he wasn’t mean about it. He even joked a little.

Shoutouts to that braindead chatter at 3:20 saying Bowser's grounded up b oos is cowardly. HE HAS NOTHING ELSE.
wtf does that even mean?!?! Is Fox's shine out of shield cowardly? Im triggered.
What’s embarrassing is that Hbox straight up kept falling for them
@@SassInYourClass eh, "falling for" implies it's some sort of bait or trick, but it isn't. It's literally just an execution test. If you do a bad aerial on shield, you get hit by up b, and if you do a safe aerial a good Bowser won't up b oos (most of the time).
People say that about lots of out of shield options
Smash players nowadays will do anything to john. I notice it more in ultimate but its still getting bad in melee too imo
1:46 - 1:52 Dude had to go Super Sayian to hit that rest.
You could Feel the built up frustration in that yell
Yeah that was stupid and annoying af
after losing 7 games in a row and getting frustrated, I saw this and thought, "oh yeah everyone gets bopped sometimes"
The one year I played competitive smash, I was always told. "You could be the best on the team playing the worst in the league and you could lose. Sometimes you're opponent is just on it and you aren't, it's life"

What you saw at 3:10 is a split in the timeline. We are in the one that hungrybox lost in.
God got busy flipping a coin
It's crazy to see how much of the tech and preparation goes out the window against the rarely used characters. HBox looked so lost during that game.
He seemed to have adapted in his third stock so hed prolly win in a rematch
He was lost quite literally, as in, he wasn’t even really locked in for that match until after that rest. Still looked lost regardless, didn’t even really have a true rest setup
So lost? He was like one hit away from winning. They were evenly matched.
smash smogon confirmed
@@ninjaguyYTJust because he started cooking doesn’t mean a recipe was ready, chief. You can still be lost and confused while winning.
Bowser having the best get up attack is pretty epic
Indeed
Also one of the best Up-Bs out of Shield
by far too, it isn't even close 😭
Not to mention, best swagger
somewhere out there, gimr is crying a river
I love how despite bowser having the shittiest little wavedash you still were using it
Micro adjustments are a thing especially in a game that’s all about spacing frame by frame.
Bowsers wavedash is actually not the worst... it's just locked behind 8 frames of jump squat for some ungodly reason
bowser's wavedash often looks like shit because it's really fucking jarring playing bowser after playing... literally any other character
so the only people who can actually do it consistently are the people who _only_ play bowser, which isn't exactly what id call "common"
it's actually surprisingly long if you hit max length and is very good defensively because of how low he crouches during jumpsquat
Ayy its Mr shiny gbz
@@ThePsymonator next melee set we 1v1 i'm picking bowser and spamming the shit out of up b

Glad to see a funny matchup like this. This is the type of nonsense that makes smash great. Little pink balloon fighting a fire breathing turtle.

This was honestly a great back and forth, liked how even though HBox was down 2 stocks he almost pulled back through. If it weren't for the title I'd have no idea who'd win.
It's a good playstyle for Bowser tbh. Hungry couldn't even touch the ground. Just zone and guard the floor and eventually your opponent has to land back in your territory
We already know Bowser is Top 1 in this game
that fox news anchor has been practicing.

I hope you continue to succeed with Bowser and someday EmpLemon makes a video about you
Or AsumSaus
You're an inspiration tbh
holy shit
I wish he’d man up and do a high-pitched yell and strobe lights for the Bowser who won since it’s low tier hype
The 1:46 wasn’t something i wanted my family to hear while i was on the toilet.
how the fuck am i casually running into loadspiller on youtube? i havent heard that name since like 2017. new england rise up

Big boy season get u one
That movement and patience at the last stock was sick
Hbox went FULL Lemongrab that moment for the rest
Love the guy, Great you got the clip, everyone needs to be humbled once in a while
The taunt at the end is killing me

1:45 😂
Never thought I’d see the day 😂
Love watching top players seeth with anger after getting destroyed. Especially since it’s puff and the best one at that. Gj m8
top player or day 1 playing against bowser is miserable
he lost by one stock and was maybe a little put out but hardly ‘seething with anger’ lol
This is why nobody likes the melee community
"seeth with anger" lmao he was hardly angry at all
bowser cheesers when they get the first win of their life
Did hungrybox actually fry scream LOL
Bowser has an absolute noobtastic up b I love it. As a macmain it makes me feel right at home with some bottom tier bullshit
His up-b sounds like it's from morrowind

THE WORLD IS GONNA END

that bowser ain't playing around
he really died off 3 out of shield reversals and one fsmash! Damn, this bowser character must be pretty good!
