I get that when Toph says he was playing in an altered state that he probably means he was either drunk or high, but in my mind I keep imagining that he turned into a werewolf last time he was playing that guy.
One of my favourite things in any competitive videogame community is when OGs try to figure out player identities based on playstyle. It usually doesn't even come close but the fact that you can link ppl w/ same habits together creates a great overarching narrative feel to FGCs (and other gaming communities as well)!
even his falcon had a dad bod from the peoples champ, to Donato's hero 1 like on this comment = 1 prayer scar skips out on his family to play more melee
@@TrucidOL8R Going zen has created a more mature, level-headed, logical aura that emanates into a quieter, calmer Scar. Although we appreciate and love the evolution of Scar's persona, we know that the inner, primal, raw Scar is full of salt and rage that brings entertainment to the people. Edit: Also maybe you're just more tired from being a dad.
@@TrucidOL8R You went full Mang0, man. You mastered the water and have achieved complete zen. Your witty sass has been transformed into 300 IQ raptor dashes. Sometimes I miss rage scar that wanted to surpass gootecks.
This is the side of melee I can relate to. Choking sets you feel like you should've won. It's a fun dynamic and a good break from just handing the controller to a pro to win game 3. And lean melee Scar is best Scar
I was playing against Waldoring last week and I have never gotten beaten so hard in my life. I looked up his name and couldn't find him anywhere on the internet. I asked him who he really was and he gave me the same sort of cryptic answer he gave toph. I never ask people who they really are but this guy was so good yet wasn't on the internet. Crazy how we both came to ask this guy the same question.
saturday's me is pissed about losing 10 straight matches to this day 11 fox as pikachu but me monday night is psyched i was getting those shield drop up airs and perfect ledge dashes during those matches
15:53 that's exactly how the elo rating system works, though. Games where the actual result is very different to the expected result produce large swings in elo rating while the opposite is true for games that end the way the elo model would predict. When you're at a high rank and you beat someone at a significantly lower rank, that result matches the expected result (high ranked players are expected to beat low ranked ones) so you get a smaller and smaller reward for beating gold ranked players as you climb up the ranks yourself. If this mechanism wasn't put in place it would actually make climbing ranks even more about grinding out matches since you could theoretically get to the top rank by only farming bronze players.
Toph do you know Widlar like that? Because it'd be dope to see him on the show, he's such a chill guy. And he loves showing off cool shit in the game, his Yoshi is so sick, and he needs some good exposure since he doesn't travel much. But it'd be dopeeee to see him on the show
Humans have a tendency to try and fill in the blanks, it happens with out vision and it can happen in life. That's why we have the desire to draw major conclusions about players. In netplay you don't know who you're fighting so you want to rush to a conclusion and fill in those blanks.
I don't have slippi because when I boot it the screen is flashing 5000 colours and the music is going at 1mph. 5.9 runs fine but crashes on boot sometime. Every other version of dolphin since 2011 before the one FM forks off works absolutely fine (even the netplay one). Stack overflows on this fork for some reason. At first it seemed to be a dll in skype that was clashing with it, now I think it might just not like crossfired GPUs or something.
While Anther might not be using the ELO method exactly, the system makes some amount of sense. You should get less points for beating someone lower ranked than you. I also believe you can't play people +/- a tier from you, right?

this is a very good comment
Canon
Jorge Goias yeah werewolf Toph is confirmed, check Twitter.
Having paws would, ironically, make playing Fox very very difficult.
Imp Twins it explains Tophs gameplay
Toph is Time, Scar is Space, and I am just living in their reality.
You forgot the third thing
@@chocolatemilk124 and he who reflects on the fourth thing
toph pointed at me and my brain was literally like "wow toph pointed at me. toph is a guy that i know" and it was a beautiful moment. thank you toph
Holy shit Toph was talking to me in the beginning of this episode.
Damn dude that's amazing, I'm super jealous
nah dawg he was totally talking to me
i cum
"Have you been workin' out?"
"No."
I love watching zen bobby open and then slowly east coast scar slipping through the cracks of salt
Toph has needed cough drops since episode 1
can finally afford them after siphoning the patreon money from spenser
Dude no joke I think the philosophical riffs that you guys occasionally go on might be my favorite part of these episodes.

Oh this is the cough drop episode, I liked how they had cough drops. :)
when will we get a beach episode I wonder?
lmao fan service episode.
When Scar typed" who...
Are you?", all I could think of was the character creation in Skyrim
huuuu
aar yuu
I miss loud scar. Can we please have an episode of, loud, young, big knee energy bobby scar
Next time? Wait why am I not loud anymore
What changed
even his falcon had a dad bod
from the peoples champ, to Donato's hero

Loud, young, big knee energy Bobby Scar is in the past. He can never exist again. He was finite; Bobby is now Infinite.

Lean. Scar. Deep.
compilation of philosophical moments when??

He's a netplay hitman
What if Waldoring is actually god tier but they were in an altered state when they played for the show
What a plot twist! I sincerely hope you're right
how does scar find the time every month to figure out an entirely new school of thought to try to apply to melee
I think you were looking for Zeus when you made the Olympus reference, Scar
it worked out full circle with Natalie Portman
A L T E R E D
I liked how they had cough drops in this episode (get the Scooby gang on the reads)
11:32 oos shine to short hop up air was insane
*Didn't You Know?* When I clicked on the video, I was confused about the title and thought a "Cough Drop" was a new tech in Melee.
We need a Crimson Blur episode
we DEMAND a crimson blur episode!!
I KNOW AND I KEEP TRYING
saturday's me is pissed about losing 10 straight matches to this day 11 fox as pikachu but me monday night is psyched i was getting those shield drop up airs and perfect ledge dashes during those matches
18:10 I respect the SOTN reference
i like how they have cough drops and what not

The bobby scar: whatever you want to do Toph.
Actually laughed out loud at the image of Wizzy practicing by staring at a watch.

The Reads: Episode 113, The Revenge of Netplay Falco
They've finally gotten to Game Grumps level ... repeating the entire sequence of Ocean's 12 to DDR ...
Toph sounds like that kid in like freshman year of high school hinting that he smoked weed once
Customers are 79% wrong most of the time
bobby saying "you're going nowhere" like bonesaw lmao
my favorite part of mondays is getting into a very altered state and watching the reads : )
12:55 I really liked this insight. Thank you Toph

14:49 black marth and netural falco on yoshis.2009 was a great year
I've never watched this show while sober. I love toph.
I like that they had cough drops
I don't play melee and I can never figure out what the fuck scar is talking about but I love the reads
the look on toph's face @ 25:22
You can actually hear the bonk of his head on the wall, haha
Huh never knew Toph was the same Toph from Stepmania files, kinda wild
Oh this is the cough drop episode, i like how they had cough drops
I think I've seen every single episode and I've never truly appreciated the gorgeous intro!!
I am infinite.
omg! Toph asked me what's up! :D
When toph started talking to us 👌
Toph, I’ll never forget. I do like how you had/have cough drops though.
While Anther might not be using the ELO method exactly, the system makes some amount of sense. You should get less points for beating someone lower ranked than you. I also believe you can't play people +/- a tier from you, right?
This shit makes my week every week
really cool cough drops
19:18 when you spill your drink but the water happens to fall into the shape of jesus christ
when ur buddy goes into the game too fast and you forgot to turn on ucf
Best Monday gift I get
Love how atrioc is still in the @ links
I Smell Integrity!!!
Should have a episode where you have a Ult Player play Melee! Would be kinda interesting
Void
Toph you dare question Randall??
just wondering, is there like a twitch stream for this, or a daily youtube upload?
Anther didn't come up with the ranking, Profane did.
waldoring is my favourite melee player
Toph doesn’t lose to ppl unless they are top 40 :)
Why was best of DBSR published in march?
Toph saying ‘zain’ for a classic m2k shit. Sigh what has happened
Did they ever get the peco raffle winner on the reads?
Why didn't anyone tell Ludwig that atrioc wasn't in this episode
No guest , no problem :)
this just made me realize how much better toph is at belle than scar lol
oh shit it's toph i love Scorpion Fire, Girl Boy Song was aite and I almost AAA'd TOML oni n i forgot how i did on your Reality peace
I'm pretty sure that was actually fiction
Whats up toph
What's up with scar, is he not feeling well?
Do you guys upload this on a podcast app?
no, but they did do that with the scar and toph show a couple of years ago.
What book were they talking about at 17:45 ish?
Castlevania?
I just thought id ask
Me?
toph looking kinda old in this episode
Eyy
I can hear everything you say toph, and I DON'T LIKE IT
"You should take care of this whole thing... Do you know what I'm saying though... You should know what I'm saying."
Scar's vagina has been confirmed.
Ok aiden
This is beyond me.
