How Melee EXPLODED His Hand

[@Bonelesspizzaeater]

As a guitarist who also plays melee, ive just unlocked a new fear

[@Ermwhatthesigma19374]

Bros doing exploding hand speedrun

Bass is better

[@juancadraws8969]

I don’t blame him, I would totally explode my hand to get some sakurai recognition as well

Don't even have broken hands i just like hearing the "click clack click clack" of my box

[@brianbarajas2948]

This was so under talked about when it happened glad you covered it. Hes the one who got me into maining falcon.

[@muchotexto4248]

You see this man absolutely shebang his entire hand playing the character and go "YOOOOOOOOO"

[@LazyPirate8]

He played melee to the point he now understand sakurai's literal pain with his hands when he made this game.

[@LonelyGamer4]

She melee on my player til I explode

[@coachmcguirk6297]

You should have started with his early beginnings. A lot of people don't know about the little rascals and the fact that he was winning tournaments as an elementary school student.

[@pot3to444]

Yeah id be unfulfilled if i had to play league instead of any other game too

[@alexandre37330]

hax is a legend and I hate the treatment he got simply to discuss badly how he was treated by one individual with a large twitter following.

[@HaxorDoodle]

Happends more than you think sadly, lots of people love to involve themselves in stuff they aren't involved in or understand. And people often enjoy harassing someone just because they think they did something wrong because they want to feel like they're a "good person" or super hero which makes no sense lol. I've had a situation like that happen to me where I had done nothing and been accused of a bunch of heinous things. It's sad to think there are people like that out there who just like to hate for the fun of it.

[@AL-lh2ht]

Dude makes a 2 and a half video and a 130 page document claim unhinged literal conspiracies, doubled down for months after negative backlash, and made more multi hour videos, and shocked hax banned?

[@alexandre37330]

@@AL-lh2ht is he not allowed to say what he think ? are we really arguing on what somebody should do with their free time ? fr he menace nobody so why being repressive toward him ? also if we talk about banning somebody cause he made a comparaison with hitler the whole fucking comunity will be ban

[@michaelengen1248]

Bro this video is so good for having so little views

[@RisingRevengeance]

Trying to claim ownership of a basic ass arcade "stick" is just dumb on both sides. These devices are dead simple as anyone who has ever opened one up can tell you. Sure stealing the layout is a bit scummy but I mean anyone else could do the same in a day.

[@HumanGuyy]

Melee is a strange and complicated game, making a controller like that work optimally for melee is not a simple task, otherwise I would agree with you

[@jebril]

The layout is more important and is why all Smash controllers use the same layout right now, which is the layout Hax designed.

[@WildlandsGG]

Hax is a genius, a visionary.

[@MarMaxGaming]

Melee is VIOLENT on and off the screen!

[@gorg9928]

Ironic that 20XX only left him with a broken hand, while other players like Axe, Amsa and HungryBox without Fox were able to win a major tournament. and Hax probably would have won with Cap Falcon if he had continued to improve his ability. but he preferred to change his character rather than recognize that he had a Skill issue when facing Fox and Falco

[@Pawnnnnn]

So what your saying is Hax$ changed characters because of matchups people do that often...

[@panikk2]

@@Pawnnnnn i mean mang0 used to main Jigglypuff when he started. i don't see why people would feel like changing characters is a reason to say that a player has a skill issue.

[@herbmaaster]

good upload, been an appreciator of Al-Yami for years he's goated. He shouldn't be banned from any tournament, current state of melee is bad beyond comprehension

[@Nopulu]

Dude, I had no idea who the hell this guy even was, so I looked up and read his entire bio... And it took me 1/8th of the time to do that than it would have taken to watch this video. Holy hell it does not need to be 16 minutes long lmfao

[@TopOfAllWorlds]

Ok but this is presented in an entertaining way

[@Clxiro]

Tell that to sports “based on a true story” movie fan

[@chairwood]

it took u 2 minutes

[@UrbanRally]

Mango destroying him with falcon is my favorite melee moment. Watching him cry that not even with fox is he able to beat mango was perfect.

[@snicklesnockle7263]

1:15 why is Lucas in melee

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

I still dont know what to think of Hax after all this time. I know I am not a fan of box controllers and think they will be bad for the scene in the long run but I could be wrong.

[@alexandre37330]

box controoller could be abusive cheat like some mod of the gc controller are. on the other hand having one recognize model like the boxx is better than having a miriad of multiple custome controller. also playing on box is really better for hands. i start learning melee on keybard and i could play long session without issue where in gc controller i need to do some hand exercisse before playing and taking break time to time

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

@@alexandre37330 "Better on hands" is a load of shit. I built my own box and sure it's not as rough on thumbs it's far worse on wrists, at least in my experience. But I agree it would be nice to have a single box style controller be allowed. But since the modders and makers of boxes are the ones in control of our controller rules nothing will happen. It's insane we let the community get this way where the ones with the most to gain from every controller being legal are the ones in charge.

[@alexandre37330]

@@x9x9x9x9x9 how ? for me it was the total opposite with keyboard. yeah tumb and finger may take a little hard but writs far easier since I don't have to so full movement juste for l cancel shield or c stick ? also no I don't think allowing everything is the right way to go since u can implement so much tech movement and other stuff with right config. let s take Samus super wavedash I have never done one on controller but my keyboard that isn't tournament legal I can do it

[@Emphetic]

​@@x9x9x9x9x9you do have to use them like a piano to have them be good for your hands. You have to float etc but yeah they redistribute strain rather than completely removing it

[@Yoshizuyuner]

I think sakurai mention is bit of a stretch sense casual player base isn’t playing the game 24/7 but you do u

[@jebril]

He doesn't show the context of the clip, Sakurai specifically talks about a competitive player who messed up his wrists playing Melee it was obvious he was talking about Hax

[@MarMaxGaming]

This is a super interesting vid about Hax… I didn’t even know his name was Aziz, so this was all fascinating!

[@swagguy7515]

Seven. Seven people have been ranked #1 in Competitive Melee's career. PPMD was ranked #1 during Summer 2014. Some people say it doesn't count but I have put respect on the Doctor's name.

Now I need a boxx

Man makes me want to stop playing smash

[@dayvonlouis5187]

No This is the point where you would need to stop there’s a thin line between a hobby and a obsession

akaneia build for ssbm, it's a mod that gives 5 new characters from Brawl into Melee, Lucas, Charizard, Sonic, Wolf, and Diddy Kong, with a bunch more changes that idk.

move on from telling people to move on from melee tbh

02:15 You came for this

[@fossfox]

Hax kinda was a puss when it came to working on his own project like that though, I'd have been pissed too

[@jebril]

Smashbox team didn't want to listen to him or partner with him they thought he was over thinking everything when the reality the product fucking sucked that's why they changed it to match Haxs design afterwards. I don't blame the guy why keep helping people who don't want to listen and for what? Charity?

[@fossfox]

@@jebril He's not bad for leaving the project or feeling frustrated by them ignoring his input, he's bad for pretending to stay on while working on his own project. Two-faced wimp move tbh, regardless of whether or not the Smash Box was a good product or not.

Headline bait 😅 although yes, I wish Hax would make a better account on this in video format. I believe he already gave an interview in a documentary
