+kupodrinksmilk No armada definitely the goat. He is much more consistent than mango. Plus he has a huge winning record against him. And he has never dropped a set to ANYONE outside of top 6. Mango is far too inconsistent to be considered better than armada. Armada is definitely the GOAT. God only mango could lose and still have people saying he is better.
@brovvntown8 жыл бұрын
+Teddy Rose I don't think it's such a linear way of thinking. It's basically when Mang0 is playing his best there is no one in the world that can beat him. So..... "There's levels to this shit"
@NinteddyRose8 жыл бұрын
brovvntown He was playing his best here and everyone agrees with that. Even him and armada still beat him.
@CXuOtaku8 жыл бұрын
+brovvntown That usually just means that whenever he loses people just say "he weren't playing his best". Mango is probably the only player that when he loses has the most people saying he wasn't playing his best, while if Mango does beat the other player it's "mango at his best can't be beaten". It's just as valid to say the other player didn't play their best. Was he playing at his best at Genesis 3? If he was, then he just got beaten by Armada, so your statement is false, and if he weren't, then when is he playing his best? The next time he beats Armada and wins a tournament? Also keep in mind that while Armada is really consistent, that does not mean that if/when mango does beat him (or anyone else for that matter) that they HAVE to be at their peak, so it becomes "proof that mango peak > their peak". For example, Armada flubbed and SD'd in this grand final. Everyone likes to talk about how if mango didn't SD in the 2nd game of the 2nd set, he might've taken the tournament, but at the same token, if Armada didn't flub, he could've won without a bracket reset. Yes, mango is a great player, but I seriously don't get this "at his best he can't be beaten" mentality. Not for him, not for leffen or any other of the gods. It just seems incredibly silly.
@brovvntown8 жыл бұрын
Y'all both have good points. Its true I'm fan boying, but I'm also just trying to make the point that consistency isn't the only way of proclaiming who is the GOAT. Mang0 is the GOAT because it is self-proclaimed rofl, "you cant do it like me". The highest level of melee I've seen is when Mang0 is peaking, but that's kind of just my opinion. Also I love armada, they are the 2 supreme beings of melee imo.

@Morogris8 жыл бұрын
Great matches! After Mang0 was sent to loser's bracket, something inside him fired up and pushed him to greatness. I had not seen him play like that in years. Luck was also slightly in his favor too, but Mang0 was pushing the pace in every single match and was looking for the win at all costs, so in a way he crafted it. He played beautifully against Armada in the first set, but I think that playing at such a high-level so long and consistently took a toll on him. At the same time, it is incredible how consistent Armanda was throughout the whole tournament. He beat everyone he faced convincingly and managed to overcome his loss against a legendary Mang0 and stop his crazy winning streak. His mental toughness is unparalleled. He is great at adapting to the situation, and I think that's what gave him the edge at the end. I think that anybody else would have probably fallen prey to Mang0. 2016 will be a great year for Melee. I can't wait to see more. Congrats to both!

Sad to see Mango lose when he's playing so good. That SD and those chain grabs though. It's in Melee though, gotta do what you gotta do to win I suppose.

You know, Armada is truly scary. you look at the matches and you see Mango going crazy, on fire and dominating, and yet.. whenever you look at the stocks below you see an even match. whatever lead Mango got over Armada, Armada just calmly got back at him and even gets a lead for himself in the process. Like i don't know if it's just me but in this matches you always see Armada on the defense, being pressured and yet the game is always even. i just find that to be so scary and respect worthy lol.
