EVO 2014 Grand Finals - Super Smash Bros Melee - Mango (Fox) vs Hungrybox (Jigglypuff)

[@Tennisers]

"There's a mexican flag, and he's from the states!" BEST MOMENT EVER

[@negativesplits06]

Lol

[@BrockBreedingintheHoennRegion]

[@pooticorn5281]

14:02 Hbox jumps to avoid up-air kill, seems to work...

[@likeerhater3]

Now that I saw that entire Smash Documentary it's really cool to see this legendary matchup. There rivalry is pretty damn historic in the Smash Community haha.

[@chis5050]

Honestly it's not much of a rivalry, Mangos record against Hbox is soo much more 1 sided than any other rivalry within the top 5 with possible exception of Armada vs m2k. Mango m2k and mango armada are better rivalries for sure.

[@russianbot2179]

***** being a rival does not require one to have an even record against each other

[@chis5050]

***** Yeah, but it should at least be somewhat close if you want to consider it a good rivalry. Lol

[@russianbot2179]

***** Nah. Yugi and Kaiba were rivals, but Kaiba NEVER beat Yugi. (not counting the time were Kaiba threatened to kill himself if Yugi did not surrender) In Pokemon Red and Blue, you generally beat your Rival EVERY time you meet him. That was a good rivalry! Vegeta NEVER beat Goku in a fair fight. That was a great rivalry! The point is a rivalries value does not necessarily have a direct relation with their win/loss ratios against each other. The win/loss ratio can certainly effect the value of a rivalry, but you can still have good rivalries even if it tends to be more one sided.

[@1000g2g3g4g800999]

***** To be fair, the sets themselves usually aren't very one-sided.

[@69Saragoth]

Anyone notice how mangos hat fell off his head at the end, but just like a fucking baller he caught that shit with his other hand.

Factualx my bad bro, I just hate some of the people in the Mango nation. Not all of them though. Whos your favorite smasher man?

[@69Saragoth]

+Stoner420Simpson oh I'm definitely not mango nation, just a fan of smash and like mango. Westballz is by far my favorite player though. I main falco myself and his playstyle is so hype.

[@Stoner420Simpson]

cool bro i main Fox and Pichu lol. I finally got melee like a week ago and i finally got wave shining down. I still gotta practice doh. I had Project M for a month now and i had mastered Wolf. Also falco is pretty hype. my fav smasher is probably armada, leffen, or Hbox.

[@matthewzakrzewski1797]

I love how the two of them really decided to be mature in the end. They both just smiled and hugged it out anyway.

[@SuperSaiyanLink093]

Matthew Zakrzewski Mango is only ''mature'' when he wins. He's one of the most childish, sore losers I've seen in a while.

[@capebretonlegacy8811]

Did you watch evo 2015 when he lost to hungrybox he was mature when he lost in losers....i wasnt mature though i was pissed

[@SuperSaiyanLink093]

Cape Breton Legacy He didn't even want to shake HungryBox's hand and as soon as that ended he went on Twitter to say something along the lines of ''oh well, sometimes lame players win''. Not to mention when he threw away the medal, thus disrespecting the whole organizing team in their faces. Truly, signs of great sportsmanship.

[@killzone23veteran]

Man, Hungrybox really knows how to make a comeback. His fight with Armada seemed to lean against him losing, but he won. He was pretty close with this one, but he made a few bad moves. Amazing EVO finals.

[@laboxing01]

5:56 crocodile head man approves of roundhouse kicks

[@Jaztec35]

Oh man , I got so scared by Hungrybox. Armada choked against him and then Mango had started to choke but barely prevailed. Great and entertaining EVO Finals.

[@zuffashill7341]

5-1 against jiggly isnt choking. Armada got bodied

[@mrheyaw2]

Just because a person lost, that does not make it a choke, lol. And just because Mango almost lost, does not mean he "Started to choke".

[@sr1488]

TBH, Hbox just went nuts. I have to give credit where credit is due.

[@TB317]

***** That's not ALL that choking is though. I'd say in common vernacular it would also require the subject to suddenly start performing poorly due to the pressure. That didn't really Happen. Hbox just started performing BETTER. A comeback is not necessarily synonymous with a choke.

[@manLiMarth]

Bit of a moot point, but the last game was well within H-box's grasp. Look at 14:08, where I can only imagine he screwed up the usmash out of shield. Instead, he stayed in shield too long and got killed. 14:19, gets baired, and immediately tries to strike with a fair. He knows that'll never work. Then a mindless forward+b, followed by DI into all of Mango's moves. Nair nair usmash isn't a combo unless you DI in there. Just goes to show that it's not out of Hbox's reach. Amazing play by Mango, though, especially out of shield.

[@zuffashill7341]

my guess it he was trying to be unpredictable as Mango knows jiggly and Hbox's style and patterns.

[@JsaenZz]

yeah but, fox is mango.. :D

[@hunky1013]

and now here we are

[@Airestotle09]

And there still playing on the old fat TVs. Not even an HDTV. That's how OG these guys are. Melee will always be the best competitive fighting game

[@wolficeflame]

Air Espenilla HDTV's have some input lag for melee, CRT's however have no input lag associated with them. You need a CRT for advanced Tech

[@Katzelle3]

wolficeflame Or a 144Hz monitor, but TV makers should finally start switching to OLED.

[@kk5]

Katzelle3 144hz still has more input lag then a CRT monitor. CRT monitors have no input lag.

[@Katzelle3]

Justin X OLED and Plasma also have no input lag. Also CRTs do have a response time, altough it's in the microseconds area.

[@kk5]

Katzelle3 No, OLED and Plasma TV's do have input lag (www.displaylag.com/oled-4k-2014-input-lag-results/) And I do realize I said "no input lag" but I shouldve said "virtually no input lag" because CRT monitors have no place to store the frame data so it doesnt have any lag. Unless you count electricity being the lag. And it wouldnt even be in the microseconds. That would be still to long.

how come hbox isnt sitting down?

[@DantonPhanton]

Hbox i think he is just more comfortable standing up. It's kind of nerve racking being in the Grand Finals of one of the biggest tournaments in the world so i sympathize with Hbox.

[@terrwaka64]

He stands up so that he can be slightly behind his opponent and he can see what they are going to do by looking at their controller, At least I think that is why I've only heard that's why.

[@brandonhatfield1445]

***** He didn't stand during those days. You can literally see him do it like 4 times in the past year. The one I remember offhand is his last stock vs PP at zenith. I've seen it a bunch of times though and I've commented on it like everytime I've seen it responding to others that point it out lol.

[@mattjackson2655]

***** Not to mention seeing your opponents controller is worthless. Taking your eyes of the screen to see inputs that you could read off the screen...you'll just get hit...

[@sigurdtheblue]

Hungrybox plays really good and then Mang0 is just incredible with his revenge.

[@Shinku101]

wait a sec, how the hell did mango fit all that in his tag? i swear this game only gives you four letters???

They were using the "20XX Hack Pack," which allows for much longer tags.

Before i get a shitstorm of "you dipshit you dont know shit so shut up" I dont play competitively, so I wouldnt know the reason as to why it seemed fair that someone used fox against a jigglypuff, I get that these guys are pros, but to me it seems extremely uneven, especially with a character like jigglypuff.

[@Agent7300]

dumbass

[@nap-nezumi]

If you don't know competitive, that's fine..While she may not look like it, jigglypuff is a VERY strong character. Rest, her silly aerials, her insane DI, they add up and make jigglypuff one of the biggest pains in the ass in the game.

[@CR_Castle]

fox is the most common character in the game, so it's not that they're using him against jigglypuff specifically, just against everyone. jigglypuff is also top tier in this game but the thing is she's considered "gay" to play against/as and somewhat boring in most people's opinion so very few jigglypuffs exist, the exception being this guy (hungrybox)

That was not Mango outplaying Hbox, that was a showcase of how Fox is just amazing against the Jiggs matchup. Fox won that, not mango.

[@weegeesqueegee1690]

Although I can't take anything away from any of these amazing players, I can say that the Fox vs JIggs match is not a good one for Jiggs. I believe in Puff and Hbox though. They just keep getting closer each tournament.

[@jcguitar22]

oookay buddy whatever you wanna think

[@Slattsquatch]

Yes, that explains how Hungrybox normally destroys Fox players and Mango along with maybe Leffen and M2K are the only Fox players who've been able to beat him with any sort of consistency.

[@weegeesqueegee1690]

I still think the matchup is a bad one, which does in fact give mango the edge over him. Hbox, in my opinion, is just as high of caliber as a player as the rest of the big 5. The skill gap between Mango and the other Fox players is quite noticeable too.

[@weegeesqueegee1690]

***** To say that Mango "just owns Hungrybox" is a false statement... They almost always have close and hype matches, and they've both 4 stocked one another once. Usually Mango just has a slight edge in the matc.
