As a Captain Falcon main myself, I can say with confidence that S2J embodies Falcon. A character who can go absolutely batshit, cover every humanly possible option during tech chases / neutral if played perfectly, can air wobble the fuck you of you and destroy you stock off a single punish, can outright skip the edgeguarding process with extremely powerful moves and just outright play around most of the roster with his speed. He's also a character that can regularly be cheesed at 10% by a Fox who tosses him off the ledge and shines him or a DTilting Marth player with their eyes closed. A character that you can easily lose control of due to his insane speed and aerial drift on top of him falling like a lead brick offstage. A character with a recovery that is so linear and lacking in its ability to sweetspot that getting back to stage often becomes a question of 'does the opponent fuck up edgeguarding me?' rather than any showing of mixup / skill. That's Falcon. An insanely powerful character who simultaneously makes people want to ragequit by tossing their controller onto the floor as well as gets cheesed out hard and SD's quite often. I wouldn't have him any other way tbh, but yeah. That's why I feel S2J represents the character very well, his polarizing 'on/off' style so perfectly matches the nature of the character. N0ne is my favorite Falcon player, Wizzy imo is the best Falcon player, but S2J is the most representative of the character by far.
The commentators kept missing that n0ne and S2J don’t want to win the match, they want to win the meta match - being dope and doing dope shit n0ne has talked a lot about this on his stream, that it’s not enough to win tournaments. It’s about being stylish
It's definitely smoke 2 joints and his playstyle is like the personality of stoners either the coolest people you will meet or just weird and antisocial with no in between
Falcon is one of the easiest characters to edge guard and they both repeatedly dropped their multiple chances of taking the last stock lol. It does make it more fun though imo.
S2J hits 5 second spurts of being the best falcon player of all time, then SDs soon after
Cooldown lol

Thats the Mang0
@@HystericalHuntress Really nice and accurate comment man! 👌
@@HystericalHuntress xd
I firmly believe westballz would be the best player if westballz wasnt there to counter him
Underrated comment
@@deltatin2758this comment is the most liked on this video and it’ll always be underrated still
@@rat4992 I don't even remember what this video is about but I agree
@@deltatin2758 westballz throwing pretty much
S2J is playing melee until he has to edge guard...
At that point he turns into the personification of greed and pride
The commentators kept missing that n0ne and S2J don’t want to win the match, they want to win the meta match - being dope and doing dope shit
n0ne has talked a lot about this on his stream, that it’s not enough to win tournaments. It’s about being stylish
I guess the "S" in S2J stands for "Spaghetti"
Him and none just need to practice more
Michael•J•S• they are both very good players. i think they just aren't used to each other's styles so that's why it was so awkward
It's definitely smoke 2 joints and his playstyle is like the personality of stoners either the coolest people you will meet or just weird and antisocial with no in between
Spaghetti 2 Joints
Best part about rewatching these vids is that my melee knowledge has gotten exponentially better, so I can appreciate them way they’re intended
I used to be like, "I would never SD like Lucky" because I had only played Ult, then I played Melee and got fucked lol
@@popperama6478
Try 64, you can't SD with side b.
I think I'm at the state where I don't get it
s2j vs n0ne is when the two smartest kids in class have different answers but they’re both socially awkward
bingo
thought this unfunny meme died like 5 years ago
why am I even watching these? if I wanted to see bad melee I would just play myself
0:33 The "D00D D000D" gets me every single time
Sad that their “bad” Melee is better than my good ):
Why are melee commentators either perfect or useless?
they suck sometimes
Because that's how life in general works.
Just commentators in general.
Why are so many of these about Johnny 😂😭 s2j does this stuff cause he's sick
johnny goes for a lot of risky plays. that's why it's either sick or spaghetti
"Bad Melee"
*Video starts witth Westballz*
Of course my boy is in there :(
The man who can beat anyone and lose to anyone depending on the day
and with S2J
Looking back, it's insane how much better s2j is at edge guarding now
The last S2J clip always kills me
YO DID HE JUST WALK UP AND SD?
I thought the whole video was just gonna be the Norwalk crew, turns out it's just all SoCal players
Man S2J is in so many of these clips
Captain Falcon could win every major if all the Falcon mains weren't complete clownshoes in clutch situations.
socal combo video
S2J is a legend -
7:46 too funny 🤣🤣🤣
I love you S2J
Hes the big homie
0:21 top ten anime battles
MUDA MUDA MUDA
0:40
That Falcon n-air went perfectly with the song.
Falcon mains competing in the ditto to see who's cooler
I like the fun facts
THE ENDING
Bad Melee: basically just johnny choking
Wow s2j has gotten so much better..
1:19
Good tech.
Spaghetti 2 Joints
if s2j just landed that knee he would’ve been one of the 8 people to beat him in tournament
After 2010*
falcon dittos are just so fucked
Top teir vod
Rip S2J 🫠
Leave my man alone, godamn
5:05
truly a tragedy
None vs s2j is a bare knuckle brawl
nice s2j compilation
And he just runs off
S2J is my favorite smasher
I really hope that commentator stopped eating taco bell right before tournaments
What are the two falcon players doing wrong exactly?
Both players could have taken the stock but ended up missing so many opportunities at a kill and dragging the match lol
Falcon is one of the easiest characters to edge guard and they both repeatedly dropped their multiple chances of taking the last stock lol. It does make it more fun though imo.
I just noticed ive heard armada speak like 3 times
Remember kids, everybody is good at tech skill until game 5 last stock
this is just S2J slander
Marth is brainded
Funny how the title is bad melee but no puff to be found..... hmmm
Still better than me tho
S2J
Poor S2J
If you keep saying that's it then eventually it will be actually be it
how is Johnny in half of these
Johnny has gotten a lot better at edgeguarding since this video, but this is a highlight of his worst edgeguard attempts
Smash
No such thing as bad melee
This isn't bad Merle, it's just a so cal montage
You're Right. It isn't bad Merle lol
90 percent of these are just Johnny fucking up edgeguards
so skill based game extentions... are bad?
That was it
This is so painful to watch
I mean can commentators really speak on skill? lol
Ivan Chavez most of them are good players
@@dmoc7546 this applies to players like chillen, vish, scar & toph, etc. not your locals commentator or other smaller tourneys
Look yesterday I got melee (slippi) and I clapped cheeks and I never played melee in my life
What is it with captain falcon mains and sucking at edgeguards lmao
So all of melee
