15 times the balance of Melee was upset. If I couldn't find the seeding for the players at that tournament, then I just put the ranks of the players at that time. Enjoy the vid

Albert told me the story of how he knew he was going to win against Hbox. He noticed that hbox would roll away when crossed up, so he didn’t punish it hard until he knew it would kill. Legend
goootcha
thats genius, knowing the habit but not exploiting it until it gets you the win
That’s called conditioning i believe
It's too bad we can't really see the video.
If you really pay attention to the falco who beat hbox at the end, he basically played a perfect stock.
He dances around ps side to side almost perfectly evading hbox. He sneaks in at least 5 lasers, 3 nairs and 3 dairs, ending in a cross up f-smash.
Nearly all these clips demonstrate one thing, coolness under pressure.
So much love for n0ne, always nice to see him win. He is humble and looks like a pretty cool guy
one of the sickest players of all time
i've played against him in dubs, he is a cool guy
@@Rael0505 📦
That was actually Bond
Wizzrobe's 3-0 on hbox at WTFox 2 >>> ibdw's first win on hbox
was that the first time he beat him? If so then you're probably right, just wanted to highlight that it only took iBDW 2 sets to take a set off Hbox
That set has the craziest rest punish that I've ever seen by a Falcon.
@@Nation123 nah his first win was that yahoo rivalries tournament watching that pop off also felt gud tho
DAWG TOWN well does it really count though? He only won the first set he didn't really beat him just take a set.
@@saraskyline8331 he didnt double eliminate but still took 1 set regardless which literally no other falcon was doing at that time. why wouldnt it count
Bro I cant help but to feel sad after seeing M2K lose the guy looks so crushed every time
Prof pro was only unranked bc his U.S. results weren't frequent enough, he would've been ranked if they used the system they use now. Not saying anyone expected him to beat hbox tho haha
Gotcha, I thought it was very odd when I didn't see his name in the rankings for that year
You were right to say unranked if he was at the time, but yeah definitely an all-time top 100 player in my book.
I don't remember how Prof did in PM, but Prof's Snake was well known at the time. The simultaneous Melee and PM storylines used to be so great.
3:20ish none calmly braces for the zombie attack, they devoured him
well deserved zombie attack too
3:24 its impressive how calm was none after that mayor upset in contrast with the baboons that run over him
ROFL
Know this was 2 years ago but if you didn't know-
n0ne has talked before about he used to race cars in Nicaragua, and he has said "If you screw up while racing, you just die. If you lose or you win a melee game, you just get up and you go on with your day."
Taj playing as Mewtwo during that sequence was some of the most impressive Melee I've ever seen. Most players would have no idea how to beat him.
The Mewtwo one got me crazy man
Taj is unreal with Mewtwo
"the mewtwo one"
mans is one of the ogs boi
That man got 3rd at genesis 2
and damn just look at colbol so happy for him/with him. i love them both.
Mew2King was ranked #5 going into GOML 2016 (2015 SSBMRank), but aside from that, a solid list! Some iconic moments from Melee history.
4:45 Clean fistbump cancel
LOL
Javi upset against PP has to be top 3 of all time, he was new to the scene in USA, he was unranked, his first tourney outside Mexico, PP was a top 5 player
Javi was like top 15 in the world tho
Javi was tanked top 20 at the time in the world and let's be honest, he is REALLY insanely good. He is a very big fish in a decent sized pond.
@@ROYBGP if javi lived in america im convinced he would've been the sixth god
7:29 so genuine lol cobol was like that was some good shit tho haha
Crazy coming back to this. Cody and Zain are so, so good now.
I'm surprised nobody's talking about the first peach who beat m2k. That one made me happy, he played like a beast and he was so happy when he won
Trif is wholesome I'm glad he won
Trif popped off into another dimension
don't think ive ever seen him that happy to win a set
To think that even when hbox got upset in one of the biggest upsets of all time against albert...the mad man still won that tournament.
I mean he beat Albert later in the tournament and double eliminated Zain in GF, so yea he was an absolute madman during this tournament
6:19 knowing what we know now, Zain was definitely thinking “I’m sick. I’m sick. I’m sick.”
I remember my friend and I were playing friendlies at Genesis 6 when m2k came up and asked if he could join. My friend played first, got bodied by him and immediately after m2k just looked at him and said "can you go find me a peach player? I got a peach in my bracket." We never did find a peach player so maybe we're the reason why he lost.
at least we got trif's popoff out of it
@@Nation123 it makes for great memories too
love some classic PP salt
This sounds strangely sexual.
Omg Albert did it with Falco too. That is crazy
making all falcos proud, myself included
@@Nation123 BIRD UP
the quality of these videos are insane
appreciate it man
AmSa's yoshi beating mew2king's sheik on FD was pretty upsetting
Amsa's sick
video is 3 years old but I am still compelled to say how it always irked me when IBDW would go for the hug when it was clear the other dude didn't want it
My guy said "im someone" i felt that.
Javi was so close to upsetting Hbox in Forte 2...it was a hype set too. Making the Mexican scene proud.
13:29 Ludwig+Slime commentary is always so hype
legendary Trif popoff
7:31 What’s that weird noise?
dude i think that's Mewtwo LOL
10:53 my favorite DJnintendo moment lol. “tiigghht baaattttlllleeee”
3:23
I can’t be the only one that heard kirito from sword art
Damn that really did sound like Bryce Papenbrook
The first clip hurt my soul to watch
i was pretty happy for trif tbh
That first Peach was actually playing really really well
"Zain's seed: outside of top 64"
How times change!
For real, now the man is top 3 in the world
@@Nation123 from when was this clip?
@@acekun6493 2016
@@Nation123 Yeah! Zain is a God, IMO :D
The spacing on that first one was amazing :o
I wish someone had filmed Hyprid Zain GOML 2018
same, I would've definitely put it in this video if there was footage out there
remembering that zain wasnt always top 5 is pretty mind boggling
man this is like one upset heavy ult tourney, crazy how much less violatile melee is than ult
you guys see the way that swedish reacted when he upset armada?
be the swedishdelight the world needs.
3:24 look closely. n0ne was looking at the crowd like “😒” then he gets ran over by like 50 dudes out of nowhere like they are beating the hell out of him
I would react the same way as the first guy if I managed to take 1 stock from M2K.
Love that Zain over Plup and Cody over Hbox were once considered upsets, and now they're the #1 and #2 players. Shows how far both of those incredible players have come.
my favorite upset will always be amsa vs m2k at kings of cali 4, amsa playing a low tier at the time, beats one of the best players in the world during the 5 gods era, shit was crazy
Prof is really good in both the puff and ICs matchup
hes sick
@@Nation123 Oh yeah for sure. And I agree that it was an upset vs Hbox obviously but not as much of an upset as I think a lot of people would assume
@@im4everskilled word, Prof def should've been ranked at the time but I remember watching it knowing he wasn't ranked and the upset shocked me
His skill level was def really high regardless
@@Nation123 Prof has taken games from Armada and everything. Don't quote me on this but I think he is rank 3 in Europe right now, or at least he was before, right below Armada and Leffen. I think it's Leffen, Trif and prof as top 3 now, but I'm not sure
Awesome vid!
Chillin beating Ken? Melee's first amazing upset.
True, should include that in a future video
Not featured: Westballz, because him beating/losing to literally anyone would not be unexpected.
westballz can beat anyone and anyone can beat westballz
These kids are improving.
It's interesting how many upsets are done by players who would be at a very high level. Zain would be best in the world, Cody would be very highly ranked (and be particularly dominant against HBox), and aMSa (who was at one point known for being the Yoshi main who beat m2k) is also highly ranked. Even if there's other elements at play, upsets can be taken to mean that the upsetting player could be worth watching.
Honourable Mentions
Trak vs Hungrybox
Aniki vs Ken
Kage Vs Mango
Now that bing ( unranked ) beat Cody ( number 1 ) with a mid tier dk will be and remain the greatest upset for like a long while
so weird to see cody on this for upsetting hungrybox knowing what we know now
Why is it that at 3:30 the commentator kinda sounds like Bryce Papenbrook
*3:27
All this hugging and physical contact triggering my coronavirus mind.
same yo
idk about some of these upsets, colbol for one, and we already know how good zain and none is
zain and none weren't the monsters they are now at the time they made those upsets, plus I believe that was the first time m2k lost to a captain falcon in over a decade
Colbol losing to a Mewtwo was just huge to me, even though it was Taj's Mewtwo and that guy is insanely good
Chillin vs Ken and Mang0 vs Kage should be here.
RK beat Wizzrobe in pools at Dont park on the grass.
much more impressive
How did Rivers beating Hax$ not make it onto here
If wobbles run isn't number one this list is fraudulent
Trifs popoff is incredible
wild ass pop off
wow i've never seen that first clip before. i'm all for that win, you love to see an underdog win a close ass set, but MAN was m2k robbed, like that sword went STRAIGHT THROUGH HER. melee sucks sometimes
m2k missed that hitbox by an inch.
Wasn't Javi like top 50 that year?
tbh it's possible but I had trouble finding rankings for that far back, skillwise he was definitely there though
@@Nation123 I know in Genesis 2013 is when he first burst onto the scene for me, because I had just joined. Number one mexican player but in 2012 he was 37th, best performance at Apex 2012. Think USA vs. the World Crews.
mattdotzeb wasn't ranked top 100 for 2013 so yeah. rough L
Leffen also lost to G$ at that same tournament, who was rank 93 for 2013. A rough tournament, but understandable given his circumstances
what does "seed" means?
Basically a seed for a player is how they are projected to place in that tournament
Someone who is the 4th seed is projected to get 4th in the tournament for example
You know you really are the king when players whole lives are made from taking a set off you , just sayin
1:47 Playing melee on a hp laptop
ROFL
Huge upset that had happened after this video 😂 Zain losing to slug mango losing fizzwiggle swopper over Cody
HELL YES MAGI
THEY PLAYED WITH ACTUAL STAGES INSTEAD OF BORING, STATIC STAGES LIKE ULTIMATE DOES?? W MELEE
Wins because if phantom hit... pops off. He lost that like seriously
lmfao never seen trif pop off like that
That wasnt a phantom, mew2king just missed
Idk man trif is really good and underrated
For sure! It's just that here m2k seemed pretty favored based on his previous sets with Armada and just based on the overall seeding/ranking of the 2 players at the time
lovage will always be the greatest fox player of all time
@10:56 TIGHT BATT HOLEE
is magi trans?
yes
HE DOOBIE
Hard to believe at one point IBDW beating Hbox was considered an upset
11:05 This is wrong. Armada lost a set to player "Trifasia" in 2015. (Trifasia 2-1 Armada) (though Armada wasn't using his mains, it still counts as a loss to Armada)
ruclips.net/video/49gCrLofz4g/видео.html
Extra notes: This was on Winners Round 4
Regardless of seeding, I'd argue HBox taking Evo over Armada is a lot better/more significant than half of these
Definitely significant, not sure if that's an upset tho
@@Nation123 100%. Armada had a hefty win % over HBox, not even taking into account the bracket reset.
@@glancing5714Rank 2 beating Rank 1 not really the same as a Top 5 ranked player losing to like 30 or 60 or 100 or whatever
same thing with taj vs colbol, this is NOT an upset.
taj is amazing, colbol just wasnt that good at the time.
bruh colbol was amazing even then
so was taj but you know, i doubt most people expected his mewtwo to take colbol out
1st one was NOT an upset at all; not even close.
m2k tried to be cool and lost for it, not to mention how many neutral interactions he won vs trif in the entire set.
based on seedings that was an upset for sure, also the first time trif ever beat m2k
