GOML 2023 - Mango (Falco, Dr. Mario) Vs. Axe (Pikachu, Young Link) Smash Melee - SSBM

[@AZaxe]

Another classic lol

[@fullsend4976]

I miss Mang0 Axe Wednesdays 😫 Also you’re sick af Axe!

[@cheddarbob6062]

axe marry my sister please

[@malachihill8677]

True. Love the Young Link.

[@phillipsullivan9614]

You're the man Axe. Keep reppin AZ

[@bones7267]

Axe is the man.

[@very_gouda]

Axe's Young Link is so nice. sorta wish we could see it more often.

[@jorgeherrera1074]

Axe so crazy. He mains 2 non-top tier characters and still a top 10 ranked player. Super impressive.

[@very_gouda]

@@jorgeherrera1074 it's like, i don't wanna say this, but i sorta wanna see the alternate universe where he mains YL! or like, clone him to get a YL out here. I still think he could be making top 64s in like majors! and that would be hype!!

[@very_gouda]

@@jorgeherrera1074 he's always said he's just a big fan of melee, who happens to play this niche character. it's just a shame that we can't see his crazy skills w mid-tiers more often. 😭

[@nahor88]

@@very_gouda YL unfortunately is way too garbage against the spacies and Sheik. He could likely beat a lot of Marths with it, though its still not a good MU. He also really struggles against Falcon. The YL looks nice cuz he's usually playing against worse players using aforementioned characters, or mid/low tiers YL has a decent to great MU against. Trust me, I've played plenty of YL on Slippi, and the spacies MU makes you want to kill yourself. You think you finally have the upper hand, and the spacie just does spacie shit, and it works.

[@twelvevoltage]

​@@nahor88so you mean to tell me his secondary is another character who struggles vs spacies and sheik and does well against marth... poor axe lol

[@Ovar_]

this reminds me of that set back at smash con 2017

[@tropicalmonix1038]

Always hype sets from these two 🤙

[@WillOfDavy]

Yall remember that Smash Con set where it was Mario.. now Doc Lee.. good times

[@Penguno45]

You can very faintly hear me yell "Mang0 Axe Sunday!" at 3:58

[@yummyos]

Goat

[@matlit1859]

Banger set. Props to the commentators

[@mjl167]

It'd be so funny to be in the crowd cheering monotone SUPER loud... "JEFFREY..... JOSEPH...." Mang0 would probably beat me up IRL LMAO

[@ahtech1990]

It was a good match. Love to see Axe out here.

[@elibonham4388]

DID MANGO reflect Pika Thunder?!??!?!??! 11:28

[@FreeShadow05]

When I saw the Doctor Mario I was so scared for a sec

[@timp7447]

2:08 back to back DBZ

[@coolbizo]

Absolute banger of a set

[@LordFartamor]

hi connor eats pants

[@jan-seli]

Doctor Scorpionmaster?

[@user-et3xn2jm1u]

The Yaxe gives the sickest sets

[@OhSoSnake]

At 1:51 one of the commentators says "It's nice to land behind them so you can tailflip them"--he's actually misusing the word tailflip, which is a word I coined in the Pikachu discord a while back and actually refers to the 3rd hit of upair which flips them BEHIND you. That is not the hitbox that Pikas go for after landing behind someone, that's just a standard upwards upair. Anyway, in case you were wondering who coined that word, which you were not, well it was me 😎

[@VanHalenfreak9]

young link gotta be one of the least changed characters between melee and ultimate lol. looks the same minus fire arrow

[@mjl167]

Fire arrow is kinda similar just way better combo tool in ultimate But I actually kind of agree. I wish more characters were left melee-like, just buffed like YL

[@whomstd.v1]

Why does Axe avoid playing against Marios? He did this before in the past when Mang0 chose Mario he picked over Young Link instead

[@chucklebutt4470]

afaik it's mainly on FD cuz of Mario chain grabs

[@rayzorium]

Trif didn't react at all when Mango went Marth. He did play pretty bad that first game, though.

[@tenslein8977]

I didn't know Shine worked on Thunder.

[@OhSoSnake]

Actually since Thunder has like 4 separate projectiles, if they reflect the first one and let go of shine, which spacies often do, then they reflect the 1st one but then get hit by the next ones. If they decide to stay in shine, I'm not sure if they reflect all 4, but it might be long enough for pika to punish if they decide to stay in shine.

[@SleepingChimes]

classy comms

[@mack4691]

I see so much of Zain in mangos fadeback dairs and bairs in neutral

[@shadowgaleshale9218]

Mangos been doing those when zain was in diapers

[@Cerbyo]

pikachu vs falcon now looks super boring after that young link vs dr mario match....even tho the last stock of the next set was amazing.

[@motblc362]

Link sounded so dope in melee and the 64 version ultimate he sounds lame and typical

[@Jhowar04]

Zone master mango

[@anes962]

that click bait

[@Greatermaxim]

I haven't watched a Beta-nerd fight in months. Still as I remember it though.

[@HappyTofu2424]

Axe has got to start playing IC's when mang0 character switches to FD, he is losing the counterpick by switching to YL! FD is mario/doc's best stage, idk why he would switch to YL.

[@collinleger9546]

Commentary needs to be better.

[@mercedesbarajas6571]

Proof mango is carried by top tiers. Goes to show that mid low tier players are ACTUALLY THE TRUE BETTER PLAYERS

[@mercedesbarajas6571]

I see better movement from bronze 1 level docs

[@orendamusic7577]

Are you cooked brother

[@henryreturns1397]

Did Doc Lee pill you so bad that you are in a coma?

[@evanshanley8110]

sick bait

[@davidbehrens4760]

Me when I'm stupid and also dumb
