Armada's 15 Greatest Moments in Melee

I actually grabbed at my heart.

Lmao

[@safikhan0]

He won Evo so we're good

Facts.

[@connorthornberg]

I think he actually bodied every god except M2K in this lol. But yeah, it was mostly leffen.

[@adamice2526]

@@connorthornberg m2k 6-0ed him at pax, and followed that up with a 4 stock at paragon the next time they played

I like how everyone was cheering for mango but cheered when Armada won any way

That clip is great. I still lose it over xtra yung leff.

[@gordonbman2911]

well if Hbox leaves , 20XX is unavoidable BibleThump Armada brought diversity to Melee with his Godlike Peach

[@ndep93]

Who is you? You're right, an era has ended. Personally I think a three-headed monster will emerge, and that consists of HBox, Plup and Leffen. I can be wrong, of course, but given this past year, I'd say it's more likely than not.

[@twinsisterr]

Armada will be back. Calling it now.

[@AlexYurian]

He's the reason I started using Peach and why it's more important the player than the character. Thank you for all the awesome years, Armada.

[@Avynders]

Same here, I don't think I would've started using Peach (and finding out how fun is her playstyle) if not for the dozens of great clips from Armada's Peach. It's sad to see him go, but hey, at least he hasn't retired from doubles. I can only congratulate the guy for one hell of a melee singles career.

[@dreamcastdazia4753]

Armada is one of the reasons I like young link too

[@darkthz2895]

SAME I am actually better with Puff right now, but I started using and practicing Peach thanks to Armada, her playstyle is so much fun.

[@jacobnelson4150]

Yvandres QR what happened? Did armanda die?

[@a-rookie4556]

jacob nelson No. He retired from melee singles, he still plays doubles.

[@EpicGamersColluseum]

Haven’t clicked on a video this fast in a while. I’ll miss watching Armada in singles. He inspired me to play Peach and to get into Melee.

[@KentAustinHenry]

That ending was beautiful! 😭

I Got Goosebumps BibleThump

[@94megamarci]

Shed a tear at the end. Beautiful man, simply beautiful ^^

[@WhoMightThis1Be]

"Oh no, armada is about to win" That's one of my favourite commentators lines. Not really esports to cheer for 1 player, but it's so honest, he sounds like a kid watching his favourite show, being really into it and having fun. i love this

[@TheyCallMeMrMaybe]

Armada spends half of a GRSmash video beating the crap out of Leffen

[@emmbeesea]

His legacy will live on in the annals of Melee forever. It may have been lonely on Mt. Olympus, but he accomplished all of his goals in the process. Good stuff to Armada and a wonderful video GRsmash!

[@beaverg5702]

In my opinion the greatest to ever play the game. We will miss watching you Armada. Good Luck with the future brudder!

[@RedHairdo]

That's fact, not opinion. (So far, anyway.)

[@1kotouba]

I'll miss armada. Watching his Peach and Fox was always amazing. (I know that he'll still play doubles) also we'll never see a Genesis Armada Mang0 GF in the future anymore Feelsbadman

[@linkjmc5683]

It'd be nice if he made genesis an exception. It could be the one tournament he plays singles in.

[@timothyalarcon9184]

Mango would never make Genesis gf so it doesn't matter

[@Pabmyster]

Armada has already won the series, Mango could never come back from a 3-1 deficit even if they were both still playing for the next couple years (Mango is probably next to retire).

[@the_really_tired_one]

Kotou What happened

[@kirjian]

Give it up for the GOAT, you have set a standard that will be hard to beat by even the most committed of players, in _any_ game

[@mrmagongus]

"OHHHHHHHHHHHH DID I WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN??!?!?!?!?" Yes, Armada. You won. Congrats to the greatest

[@jakemauro5677]

Armada was my favorite since day 1. Before he took over. So glad he got to where he has. Guy has it all, Combos, swag, tasteful taunts, edge guards, gimps, dude sees windows of opportunity that come out of all parts of the brain.

[@spaghettiking7312]

Thank you, Armada, for everything you've done for Melee.

Can't help but shed a tear. Armadas tournament play has been amazing to watch throughout the years and inspired MANY. Thanks for everything and we all hope to see him in singles again maybe someday.

[@ShionYTS]

Damn, I think these type of videos will make Armada not want to quit. Armada the Legend

[@Spleen2ween]

Really shows how far commentary has come

[@gravityvertigo13579]

This is a great video. I really like the sentimental touches, like the win screen and letting the vod roll when he beat Mang0 the first time.

[@frogturtle]

such a perfect ending, the feels man...

[@quazillionaire]

What an absolute legend. Thank you, Armada, for the years of beautiful competition and for breaking boundaries in Smash and esports as a whole. Looking forward to seeing what you do next (and watching your doubles play, of course)! Also thank you GRsmash, I don't get to tournaments much, so for several years now your channel has been where a large proportion of my Smash comes from. Keep up the great work!

[@pwnmonkeyisreal]

cheers, Armada. You are a legend

[@Fleetw00d]

He was never my favorite player, but I don’t think anyone can touch the run he’s had over his career. Quite simply the best to ever do it. The real GOAT. And honestly, the bar I’m sure I and every other Melee player wants to be.

Armada, you make me discover the glory that was this game. You make me fall in love with Peach's potential, and since nearly a decade, she has been my main in every smash. Thanks to you, i've made friends, I discovered the competitive scene... This is your second retirement, and just like the first time, Im sad, despite not knowing you. I wish you the best, and again, thank you.

[@drewsauveterre8867]

This Armada guy's pretty good. Can't wait to see more from him in the future.

[@RareBrink]

the ending instantly made tears well up in my eyes. I'm lucky enough to have been watching smash for long enough to see entirety of Armada's career unfold and what a ride it has been. I doubt we will ever see a champion like Armada again.

[@NMtwin1]

That was me and my brother who picked up Armada after Genesis 2 for the Armada chant lol. He truly is the greatest of all time.

[@snoepdrop7879]

A legend from far away

[@cinnabread9306]

Armada is an amazing guy with a humble heart, I can't wait to see what'll happen in doubles. I can totally see him coming back for a couple majors as this old grandpa bringing out this technical Peach with new tech lol. You the best dude

[@Bizzozeron]

Armada beat classic mode, and now he's ready to start his adventure. Good luck, and great work.

that Genesis 2 celebration brings so much joy to my heart. Seeing Mango, Hax, Leff, Armada, Hbox, all so young

[@carterwalles940]

It is so easy to forget how incredible Armada was because he did it all the time. Watching this helps remind me just a little how incredible he truly was for such a long time.
