Honestly it looked like hbox played like shit, and mang0 still only took one set while hbox took two. I blame puff for it being that easy even while playing bad, but still a lot of those conversions looked like reaaaaally bad defense.
@@sageryfrekenstein if you honestly think Hbox played like shit you're an idiot. Obviously we all wanted to see mango win but Hbox played so consistently and clutched out some really close situations. Puff is a disgusting character with 100x less technical inputs but still requires the game knowledge and almost perfect execution to pull it off at top level.
@@letmecommentalready idk chudat must be one of the most likable people in the melee community, he's literally the biggest troll and that reflects in his gameplay. It's hilarious. I can see people hating on nintendude for a reason but chudat does it for the luls haha
Winners Semis vs Hbox was one of the isckest fox vs puff matches I've seen. Both Hbox and Mango played amazingly and demonstrated how fast paced the matchup can be. It was a sick tournament and really hype. Clutchbox clutched it out in the end but props to Mango. I hope to see more sets between them like winners semis. Even if Mango doesn't win, as long as the sets are super f'n close.
@@happykaladin78 it's Mang0. Hell yeah he can. At his peak, he was better than Hbox and that's no easy feat because Hbox right now is a hair under him in his prime.
Quas CMS obv it’ll be hard but hbox can’t stay on top forever. His coach just accepted a position at Google and keeping up the motivation to stay on top is really hard.
Even if you didn’t win, you gave us all mad hope. Your movement was so unbelievable. Keep playing like this and you’re winning the next Major for sure.
I’m super new to watching smash (Cloud9 fanboy in all games) and I will say it was such a blast to watch this tournament! The commentators were also amazing I was pleasantly surprised!
I'm from MI so I might be a little biased but KJH is the next big thing imo. Watching him and Mang0 styling on each other had me cheesin the whole time. Kalindi definitely read the book of Mang0 on the way to getting where he is, the set was FIRE
the competitive spirit of mang0 is out of this world... he keeps getting better and enjoys playing no matter what. thanks for being such an inspiration, mang0!!!!
ayman chahir Same here! During every big melee tournament, it makes me want to drop ultimate, load up 20xx and start training again, while hoping I can setup a local in my area haha.
Mango was playing fucking amazing That being said, Axe and KJH both could have potentially won those sets if a few things went differently, they are making leaps and bounds. Axe top 4 by August?
Mang0 played smooth as fuck this tournament. Top Melee players are getting so unbelievably good.
Getting so good? Man Mang been had his smooves
He's just saying he's improving.
Honestly it looked like hbox played like shit, and mang0 still only took one set while hbox took two. I blame puff for it being that easy even while playing bad, but still a lot of those conversions looked like reaaaaally bad defense.

@@neil2451 puff is easy compared to spacies but playing puff like hbox is soo fkn hard cause this man is really fkn good
So happy to see this. This wasnt quite what you were looking for man, but i know you will get back to winning tournaments
Pound 2019 was like a 2014 tournament. Mango not dropping sets to non gods, chudat top 8 mango beats hbox with fox . Dam what a good tournament
crab
@@letmecommentalready lol this right here is an example of the toxicity the melee community has towards people for no reason other than playing "lame"

The Turdinator weird flex but ok
@@jonathan5871 Melee would've been dead a long time ago. Saying one person is killing Melee is pretty much an exaggeration.
That winners semis vs hbox was so much fun to watch, lets go mang0
The first set of Grand Finals was great too tbh.
Mang0 came to play man he wasn’t messing around, next tournaments his!!
Watching Mango play when hes on fire is so dope!
Am I wrong or is not getting blitzed with Leffen for 80% of a tourney a good reason for his focus
what does blitzed mean
@@cIiffe drunk bruh
@@ChaostotheVII thanks bruh
ChaosVII I thought it meant rushed down, ala the blitzkrieg
fancyncv110 that’s what i thought too
The fact that this video is SEVENTEEN minutes long is a statement in and of itself!

I also really liked the hug after their first set :)
The Kid´s back, although he never really left
pretty sure he would have won if he wore the kimono
C9 need to make him a kimono
Mango was on fire man, had me on the edge of my seat when I was watching! The GOAT.
This was very satisfying.
Thanks Mango.
I believe mang0 can end this year #1, he just has to keep the momentum up
He can overtake Hbox?
@@happykaladin78 it's Mang0. Hell yeah he can. At his peak, he was better than Hbox and that's no easy feat because Hbox right now is a hair under him in his prime.

That was absolutely insane, please keep playing like this
Hbox's reactions to dying such as 16:28 keep me from ending it all.
"WOOOOOOOOW" - Hungrybox 2019
Can’t wait to see what else mango can do this year. 2019 will be the year for mango I already know
*throws crab*
THE CRAB WHERE WAS THE CRAB
Best part of the tournament
I had chills watching these highlights. I'm looking forward to the return of Neo!
Those instant kills on hbox, axe and plup were so sick
Mang0’s time will eventually come again. May not be today may not be tomorrow but it will come
THE KID IS BACK
Mango, you played remarkably well at pound. It was extremely sick gameplay. Don't let the final outcome let you down! 😊
Would have been one of the most legendary tournaments ever if mango won. The Story lines are starting to pay off.
Great performance at pound mango your game was on point and you seemed super focused keep up the good gameplay man :P
Even if you didn’t win, you gave us all mad hope. Your movement was so unbelievable. Keep playing like this and you’re winning the next Major for sure.
Prime melee right here. if only leffen and armada were there to get clapped
Lol
Rip armada
Leffen vs Mang0 always mean high quality Melee
Mang0 still got the fire !!!!!
A statement indeed dude. You had one hell of a run. 👍
I’m super new to watching smash (Cloud9 fanboy in all games) and I will say it was such a blast to watch this tournament! The commentators were also amazing I was pleasantly surprised!
The Statement: 2013/2014 Mang0 = 2019 Mang0, let the games begin.
I thought KJH was sick. One to look out for.
I'm from MI so I might be a little biased but KJH is the next big thing imo. Watching him and Mang0 styling on each other had me cheesin the whole time. Kalindi definitely read the book of Mang0 on the way to getting where he is, the set was FIRE
mang0 is a competitor.
the competitive spirit of mang0 is out of this world... he keeps getting better and enjoys playing no matter what. thanks for being such an inspiration, mang0!!!!
Clint & Mango have more alike than youd think.
2nd place
:)
You had focus on your face, Mang0.
Mango is always gonna be the goat.
You will always be a god. You will dominate again soon if you keep this pace up
THE RETURN OF THE KID
Mang0 I see your making good use of those Iron Man Wednesdays
He played so good. So close boys.
mang0 beats hbox twice before grand finals then it all goes crashing down
you'll always be the GOAT mang0
I'm pretty confident that Mango will win next tournament!
I know that 2019 is Mango's year... building that ball of energy with pound
As mad as we got at Salem, he was right about one thing. He did call Mang0 switching back to Melee.
But he also called Mang0 dangerous, sooo.....
Idk we didnt do much research
Oh well good job Mang0 even if you didn't win. Hope you win next tournament you attend.
Is it just me or are melee tournaments keep getting better and better.
People keep improving and peak melee is the best
yeah when you compare it with ultimate, it seems flavourless. This tournament makes me want to play melee on try hard again
ayman chahir Same here! During every big melee tournament, it makes me want to drop ultimate, load up 20xx and start training again, while hoping I can setup a local in my area haha.
Most electrifying man in smash
That Bombsoldier at 2:12 tho, perfectly executed
Mango really made it look like he never left
That plup set was crazy
You did amazing man!
we proud, another one like this. ouf, ppl hyped
Next time he needs to stick to his game plans to win GFs
I don’t want to be gutted again uspandpanfjf
My man Mango looking shnasty put here i love it. Keep it up my guy
Jesus Mang0 was on fire o.o
Broke my heart to see mango lose but my dude was popping off
making grands thru winners is still amazing
Made a statement. Stick to your game plan vs Hbox every time and you’ll start taking 1st.
Sickest smash player ever
Mango played his tournament like he spent some time in a hyberbolic time chamber, what a beast
Wtf was this?! All that crisp movement and tech skill? All those optimal punishes?! Who is this and where’s Mango?!?
Whaaat is this mooovment ice? Whatt is thisss mooovment
loved this.
sick tournament, next time you'll be on top
Then a crab was thrown
3:50 "That is NOT safe"
"I can no longer win tournaments" good statement
Never played melee but there's something about it, hopefully one day they'll use it as inspiration for an upcoming smash game.
Sakurai really, really dislikes melee
Holy shit! Now that's good melee right there, if Mang0 can keep this focus it's gonna be a good year!
Great Winner's run. Played fucking amazing all the way through.
Beautiful .meep it up hommie
This is NEO mode mango. The kid still got some left in the tank
congrats!
Mess with the mango you get the crabo
Sick tournament I sense victory.
Gave me the chills dad
This video cured my depression
back on top soon🤫
I didn't know they let TAS bots enter
Mango messed around and got a triple double!
Hehehe aka 60
Mango was playing fucking amazing
That being said, Axe and KJH both could have potentially won those sets if a few things went differently, they are making leaps and bounds. Axe top 4 by August?
9:47 the movement
Thou shall not sleep on the kid
Mango looks sober. His fox is looking clean.
Stop at 13:53 and your heart will not be broken
Up air nuts on floaties good to know
Holy shit... Glued to my screen. This was INSANE.
That's some fucking next level playing. mang0 fucking rocks.
Damn after watching this I really think this would have been the ThreEVO this year with him playing this fucking nice and with armada in retirement.
still the GOAT
Hes coming.
that Fox got me tearing^ ;,) that falco fox combo Unseen
honestly the crab thing feels more like a mangonation thing rather than an antihbox movement
MANGO, MANGO, MANGO, MANGO, MANGO!
that ending to the video tho LMAO
Mango played fucking amazing
So damn close 😔
🦀Mang0 is back🦀
