Competitive Melee will never die. Even though I don't compete, I have full respect for anyone putting in the grind to get their wins and become the ever improving player they strive to be. Melee is my favourite eSport and I'll keep watching so long as it's around. New players aiming for the top is a story as old as as stories go, but Melee has that extra little special something that just can't be adequately explained. Long live this beautiful game.
although i’m primarily an ultimate player, i’ve always admired those who put in the time to learn melee and all of its rich mechanics. mesmerising to watch at high level too. it’s such a beautiful game. sometimes i feel it can be characterised to art - the amount of freedom that players have to self-express is astounding. good stuff.
When Slippi first came out, one of the first players I played against was LSD. It’s crazy to think that I was going even with them half a year ago and now they’re taking sets off of Top 20 players, just shows how much the grind pays off
I recently moved to charleston and became friends with lsd and i just wanna express my appreciation for this video. they care so much and try so hard and its rad to see them get recognition, great video and as always inspiring ending
It’s been awesome to see so many new players turning up over the past year. Slippi allowing younger/regionally isolated players to get a shot at the big stage has been such a gift to the scene!
Seeing my friend of 4, going on 5, years at the number one spot really makes my heart flutter. Through so many struggles, he’s finally hitting the spotlight he deserves
Keep being loud! Joined the viewers of melee in 2017 and joined as a player and grinder in 2020 with rollback. Thank you Fizzi for making it easy to get in and practice against everyone
Great video as always... Although you guys totally forgot about Solobattle, who's been dominating EU for a while now (basically everyone except for Prof). I feel like he wins so consistently now it's easy to forget that he was unranked in 2019.
Im sure at the time this video was in production Pappi wasn’t really “there” yet tbh. Pappi blew up results wise this past month. But if this was made now. He woulda deffo been 10-9th i think.
i play melee because it's sick. i've never felt the same level of self expression, satisfaction, or joy from anything else. *remember to stretch, you nerds*
This series has incredible quality and production value. If it were focused on another esport besides Melee, it would probably blown up. But I am sure glad that it's on Melee.
Great vid, and a great reminder that melee will always be grassroots by nature. Random monsters with potential and dedication can rise to the top in any era under any circumstances, and even if you suck you can still find great rivalries and community within your local scenes. Easy sub, keep making vids
Thanks for highlighting some really stylish players! Melee isn't about winning for me, it's about having fun and doing sick stuff. There's no shame in going 0-2 in tourney! Love live friendlies
Great video guys! But there was some slight distortion on the voice recording for most of the video, you can barely hear it but to me it sounds like a bad mic cable. It could also be some interference when the voice and music tracks are overlayed
dude, this video is so good for the scene. I feel like, for the average viewer that only really tunes in for the big tournaments, cheering for players like these when they pull an upset isn't THAT compelling. On one hand, you like to see an upset, but on the other hand, you also want those players with a narrative behind them to reach top 8 and duke it out (mango x zain, derusting hbox, ibdw, n0ne, etc). So to have these unranked guys on the come up have a spotlight in a video like this makes them more compelling as someone you wanna see go all the way to grands in the place of other household names.
I'll be honest with you all, I have never played melee and was never interested in it, but this year I got very interested in it and now I wish i had equipment to play it.
What Melee Player did you become a fan of in 2020?
Aklo, during his rise at Hax's Nightclub. Those angles, man. He's one of the main people that people think is on B0XX, but he's just that fast.
Big Leff
Zuppy
Faze mumbo on twitter fs
Honestly just became a bigger fan of Mang0

Melee is art aesthetically amd the matches play like a jazz song.

YOO I MADE THE TOP 8 GRAPHIC LMAO
Ty for the support, I shouted y’all out on Twitter. Super sick to know you guys like them
Thank you for supporting Melee Tournaments!!!! We love them
Jmook being an honorable mention is pretty hilarious rn

Ehh wisco hype
And shout out to Allston melee for being 2020’s best new melee conglomerate, podcasters, content creators, commentators, the list goes on
FINALLY the first Allston Melee Offspring reference, it was only a matter of time
No Doubt about that one
It’s All I Want honestly
Seeing my friend of 4, going on 5, years at the number one spot really makes my heart flutter. Through so many struggles, he’s finally hitting the spotlight he deserves
Also, Aklo does crazy side-B edge cancels. He is definitely becoming one of my favorite new players to watch.
Why am I practically in tears at the end of ever Allston Melee vid, goddamnit.
Shoutouts to LSD!! I feel lucky to know them and they are always down to give me some advice to improve my gameplay

Yooo, Thanks for featuring the combo video, being in an Allston melee vid is sick!!!
Great video as always... Although you guys totally forgot about Solobattle, who's been dominating EU for a while now (basically everyone except for Prof). I feel like he wins so consistently now it's easy to forget that he was unranked in 2019.
Never heard of Bzim. Always into watching my fellow Yoshi mains rise up.
Super glad you guys shouted out Chem :D
He's gonna be a dark horse going forward, Philly knows.
Dawson too. Philly Melee has a bright bright future.
@@rezbro7743 Chem? Who dat?
@@Doncar97 HAHAHHAHA a gamer
@@rezbro7743 never heard of him
@@ChemSSBM LOL
Unfortunate not to see pappi
Im sure at the time this video was in production Pappi wasn’t really “there” yet tbh. Pappi blew up results wise this past month. But if this was made now. He woulda deffo been 10-9th i think.
Alright I have to say it...thank you guys!...the content is amazing...the podcasts saves my life at work...keep up the good work!!!!

*remember to stretch, you nerds*
that larry bird clip was a deep reference. i appreciate it

But I am sure glad that it's on Melee.
this video might be the sickest melee video I've ever watched

It’s crazy how good people have gotten that even players like SluG and Azel weren’t able to make this list.
Great freaking video dude! Now I got more players Twitch to follow and to watch!
Omg the No Doubt Don’t Speak 😂😂😂
“Because Melee and it’s community is fucking amazing”
That’s a weird way to say “fucking sick”
