[@phil_matic]

Yeah dude he loves the attention. He'll hug someone who smells like shit if it gives him time in front of the camera

[@AliA-yj9eq]

Zain is his homie. That’s his marth practice partner. It’s genuine happiness towards zains victory

[@OneArmedRetroGamer]

wah, he wont practice with other Puffs and cheating on his gf. A true psycho.

[@whatlez]

Ali A, Zain is not his Marth partner at all lmao.

[@FabulousJejmaze]

Leffen didn't want Zain to throw up on him 😩

This being 6 years ago is so wild.... Didnt feel that long ago

[@LazerAoT]

WHO SAID YOU WERE A GOD, I KNOW IT WASN'T ZAIN!

[@Buzz_Oh]

To the producers: I'm actually super sad that you cut to the crowd instead of showing zains reaction to his win first. yeah the crowd popoff is really cool. but imagine someone scoring an important touchdown and immediately going to the crowd instead of the guys face. meh! if anyone from the stream reads this ... please don't do that again.

[@patoa3481]

Buzz Oh also HBox searching for attention as well

[@tuanisthename]

lol hbox can never escape these accusations. I bet his tombstone will be vandalised with, 'here lies hbox seeking attention even in death'

[@d3monslay3r4]

hbox actually left in the middle of playing a set against Nightmare to congratulate zain, thats where the problem comes in (not hating on hbox, i love him, but thats the reason most people are mad)

[@zeddash.6695]

Zain didn't really pop off.

[@MeleeEverydayGG]

That was definitely my mistake. It was one of my first streams working 6 different video inputs and I was already scrambling at the time from cutting early before the game ending + just being really hype about the moment myself. I'll hopefully never make that mistake again after this. :P

[@RobbianMemzexe]

“What an upset It would be if Zain won.” If only they knew

[@hardnewstakenharder]

Watching this in 2022 lol

this is the set that started it all

14:26 omg

[@pearlywhites3025]

PKSparkxx DatHottneSS I didn't know you liked melee :D

[@KJ-xu4fp]

HBOX and Zain played online, leaving hbox amazed at his marth. That's why the pop off. Really good video to look up. But Props to Zain. His movement is so perfected. Fastfalled just about everything. And the edge cancel down airs.

[@austin4601]

ZAIN, THE SLAYER OF GOD-SLAYERS!

[@samskott2344]

The set that put a legend on the map. I can remember watching this set and I thought that Zain's Marth was really sick, but I wasn't sure if his style was sustainable enough to consistently beat players of Leffen's caliber...it turns out it absolutely was sustainable, lol.

[@confrontationalblackwoman6608]

Hbox: "How can I make this great moment about me?" *runs on stage*

[@trevorboesche1636]

I don't know what I laughed harder at, this comment or your user name lol.

[@ChrisJ318]

The pivot fastfall and autocancel fairs/nairs zain does in neutral in accordance with his dash dancing are fucking crazy. They zone AND they bait. What a monster, Leffen looked lost those games on DL.

[@thugjuice69]

Yea his pivots are nutty he just upped the meta for fox Marth so sick

[@lagalil]

Christopher F Wonder if M2k will update his style some day

[@mellomessatsu]

Christopher F ive been wondering for a LONG time why marths just dont pivot/fadeback more in neutral marth has all the tools to bully any character and keep fox out of his personal space, good to see a lesser known marth finally applying it

[@xXSaberToothSamuraiXx]

not rly....leff would have actually won the last game, just miessed up on the ledge. i wouldnt say hes looking lost just zain playing sickkk

[@MoonEnvoy]

Saw this live. Being an absolute Zain fan for over a year and seeing this live was fucking incredible

YO THIS ZAIN GUY IS SMART AS FUCKKKKK

[@majinuub9954]

seeing zain feel himself move and more as the game went on was hype

[@enemyskill4286]

the set that made zain. this is history

Actually the set that made zain was him beating plup

[@noahjp7090]

Finally Leffen can't brag about "I've only lost to top 5 players, I'm consistent."

[@erickdiaz1235]

He made it into top 8 on a non easy bracket, so he is being consistent, but I got your point, he is not playing as good as he used to.

[@birdwithteeth8448]

Erick Diaz spoke too soon

He beat Armada, so he's got that

Seriously one of the greatest sets in Melee history.

and a year & a half later, he is in contention of being top 5

Beating him, and taking hbox to game 5 pretty consistently. Zain is so sick

Zain had ascended by this time. He fuckin’ Goku’d his way to the top.

[@vapedragon983]

the hell happened at 12:44 after the amsah tech? He just like fell off the ledge?

[@AxeOverSword]

vapedragon I think the momentum from the hit pushed him off after the tech

[@vapedragon983]

yea that seems right. just weird that the game waited for the character model to fully stand up before the momentum carried over

[@coolguyc4sey]

Chillin take notes

[@farleydbear]

16:58 for highlight of the video

[@MeshTheSnake]

2:35 was straight M2K esqe, wild set

[@AxeOverSword]

Hbox was faster than minatos flying raijin technique

[@ethanflinner8254]

Biggest upset since aMSa vs Mew2King. Possibly the biggest in Smash history

[@LuisGMJVM]

Ethan Flinner It was great, but Zain has been on the comeup for a while now and Leffen hasn't been playing at his real level in ages. Still a crazy upset but calling it the best of all time would be pushing it waaaaaaay too far.

[@django3108]

Ethan Flinner aMSa M2K wasn't that big of an upset, M2K is known for losing MUs he doesn't know.

[@brolo7234]

D@rth_Bane Beat me to it. If aMSAh played fox he would have been shredded.

Yeah unranked v top 5. Totally not an upset..

[@MrAnonymoose]

Zain takes his first game at 10:16, and Leffen makes the fakest yawn I've ever seen lmao

[@tuanisthename]

getting sleepy is often a stress-response. it's not always an indication of boredom

[@ninezerotwo1778]

Yawning doesn't always mean you're tired. Your nervous system will also make you yawn if your blood oxygen levels are low, in order to fill your lungs with air. Considering how stressful and intense it can be, Leffen may have been holding his breath during parts of the game. Learn what you're talking about before trying to roast somebody.

[@kodar98]

10:18 Leffen yawns...

[@jamiecal11]

Kodar I noticed too, looked pretty fake to me.

[@JayStaice45]

JebaJebaJemeh yup. Kinda looked like something he just did out of nerves

Alright Zain, first Plup, and now Leffen? You have our attention, let's see if you can join the ranks of the top non-gods this year.

[@gwen6622]

i think he probably can

[@brianroccapalumbo4175]

what region is Zain from?

[@ninezerotwo1778]

Maryland.

[@brianroccapalumbo4175]

no wonder he didn't get far

[@321CBA19]

is leffen washed up?

[@jamiecal11]

ISwearI'mNotAWeeb not washed up but a bit full of shit. So sick of every tournament him taking to Twitter to show something else to complain about. Less talk more action.

[@lagalil]

JebaJebaJemeh yep I get that he cares a lot about the game but giving crap to every player better than him saying that he is gonna win the next tournament, and then crying on every social media like a prepubescent teenage girl after he loses is just annoying. He should try to live without an ego that he cant fulfill.

[@mellomessatsu]

i feel like he used to play like he had nothing to lose, that changed overtime

[@jamiecal11]

lagalil I'm just so sick of the constant 'you guys are fucked when I stop making mistakes' or how he learned so much about his mentality and then he blames his sleep or his mentality or decides he has something more important to go. Obviously I don't mean to sound like a duck when I say that (and I get you don't either), and obviously people have their shit to deal with outside the game, but at some point it's just looking for excuses and hoping to find them. Again, less talk more action.

[@terencekelly2547]

clovehitch Yeah, or Leffen hasn't been playing well all year you idiot

Hbox is a pop off god lmao

[@zacharyrhodge]

[@sprenzy7936]

Zain is pretty good. He is a lesson to win neutral 13 times in a row just shutting leffen down. Honestly though leffen wasn't playing in point. Sloppy play and makes some unsafe moves

[@TheBeggies95]

[@rwsh6536]

[@rwsh6536]

Tizzlefix Do you not understand the difference? Mang0 is alreadya celebrity in the community. Hbox is well known for being someone who attempts to steal the spotlight a lot. Considering the kind of person he gives the impression of being I'd also wonder how much of his happiness was from Leffen being sent to losers so Hbox wouldn't have to play him

[@5555is5a6]

Urameshi Sama Just so you know I've been subbed to mango longer than anyone. What Hbox did was not bad, he just congratulated Zain. You're making a big deal out of something that isn't.
