The best I've seen hbox play in a long time. And he actually DIed zain's f throws in grands, seems like hbox is putting time into melee again

[@MLGCaptainVirgil]

he actually died in grands, rip hbocks 😔

[@TimmyT1234]

This is what happens when he actually starts trying again 😂 and he's still playing below his peak

[@cedricrust9953]

Absolute banger of a set, only topped by grands against Zain. Hope we get to see more of this HBox. He certainly seems hungry for more.

[@zachsteiner]

He actually played on point this tournament. He was using all sorts of new tech and mixups. Love seeing it! Oh, and he actually went for rests.

[@Danchovies]

Clutchgod back at it again

[@lorenn4113]

14:04 worst case of commentator’s curse ive seen. too perfect

[@crimsonmido2519]

That's definitely getting clipped and put on Twitter 😂

[@OurNeighborsCat]

To be fair, I feel like he’s more talking about side b in neutral

[@artificercreator]

Woa, you can tell how tired adn weary HungryBox is and still can get such amazing results!

[@jtrtx]

5:39-5:48 how did HGod not get lasered holy shit, Cody got lasered more than he did 🤯

[@KevinGannets]

Is grand finals gonna be played/uploaded soon?

[@mateomuro4647]

Cant believe Zain Cody Granfs didnt happen. I can't remember the last time those two were in grands.

[@josesalas732]

Everytime a god is ranked below 5th... the community unleashes powers and visions no one cant acknowledge. This is the very second time in two years... lts not forget when Mang0 was ranked 13th and won the ssc. Now Juan DID IT!

[@zachhatten7740]

Don't care if Zain beat him. HGOD.

[@DoctorHyperions]

i fucking love watching hbox play puff

[@Dr_Mel]

I hope cody leads the trend of people just using their regular-ass name. At this point I prefer it.

[@Windraesa]

what are you a doctor of mel?

[@Dr_Mel]

yes.

[@enemyskill4286]

Zain should be credited before him

[@Dr_Mel]

@@enemyskill4286 I mean like full name, like in other sports, not just a first name. But I think it still counts to an extent.

[@mikewillner8626]

I was losing my mind watching cody not punish hbox's tournament winners in the last game when I saw him do it earlier in the set.

[@Jackaroo.]

Hbox with that cuban link drip.

[@josecoronas8716]

Should go back to IBDW

[@NoumenalSoup]

Juan looking like Mang0 now wtf

UPLOAD WINNERS FINALS

[@rubadub15]

Walt and HMW actually commentate very well together despite stylistic differences. V cool to see. Good synergy

[@zachsteiner]

Honestly that’s the best commentary when you have two commentators with different styles that are still able to be synergistic.

[@Theatricbandit]

This is their very first time commentating together too, according to what they said after grands, great stuff from both of them

[@NT-vg2gy]

Is no one gonna talk about that insane SDI at 11:12?? 😨

[@WolfxE1998]

Cody’s reaction to Hbox di at 11:11 is hilarious

The year is 2023. Hungrybox is cooler than Mango.

[@KirkMillerShow]

this is the happiest ive ever been to see hbox win

[@crimsonmido2519]

Because he's playing Cody? 😂

[@unovi8141]

@@evantindle1564 Or maybe people like to see players overcome bracket demons

[@rat4992]

Juan played super well! He ended up being the most hype imo

[@rodgeers7347]

3:18 HAVE PEOPLE JUST BEEN ABLE TO SAVE THEIR JUMPS THIS WHOLE TIME?

[@Letsfuckingoooooooo]

He just never jumped

[@enemyskill4286]

ngl this blew my mind when i saw it 😂i feel stupid now, thinking he gained another jump

[@rodgeers7347]

@Letsfuckingoooooooo yeah I get that. But I don't remember ever seeing anyone do this in bracket. Any time their jumps are saved, it's been a side b. I don't play melee but since I never seen this, I was just always under the impression that if you up b, your jump goes away. Kuz I used to think "man why don't these melee players save their jumps. That works well in sm4sh" (I started with sm4sh.)

[@kevmeister330]

I think Cody held up while in hitstun to up-b without using his jump, super impressive presence of mind to do it twice there

[@BlueGrovyle]

I believe you only keep your jump if the up b is interrupted before he starts moving.

[@matthewroberts6833]

So does this mean HBox collects the bounty he set out for Cody?

[@zweePOP]

that was for coinbox a few weeks ago and hbox did take a set (only to lose the reset)

[@matthewroberts6833]

@zweePOP I know, man. Just sticking to the bit.

[@SnackMuay]

Ok Hbox was playing out of his MIND here

[@PacoFTW]

I will never get why Cody switched his tag. IBDW was his brand and people part of the scene just called him Cody anyway.

[@greencrusader6488]

Wasn’t that the reason he switched it? Cuz everyone called him Cody anyway.

[@Gabriel-sd1oh]

he didnt like it

[@whambulance8607]

IBDW is a funny tag he should of kept it

[@MitchBison]

where's winners finals, Zain vs Schwab

[@shanepoops5993]

The fist bump tells the story of this set.

[@spintowin5537]

Didn’t expect this, thought Cody would wash him

[@Pearlem]

When hbox is in it there are like 3 players who can beat him

[@fupalover]

​@@PearlemCody is 1 of them.

[@necromax13]

@@Pearlem Cody zain and who else???? can't think of a consistent third.

[@Pearlem]

@@necromax13 even when he was #1, hbox had a hard time beating leff

[@BlueGrovyle]

​@@Pearlem depends on the year. Pretty sure Hbox was beating Leffen convincingly in 2018, at least.

[@cameronmckendrick4155]

11:12 Cody impressed with Hbox’s SDI lol

[@PompousPoggs]

It's always nice to see iBDW lose.

[@BeansEnjoyer911]

Can we all just agree everyone in top 8 this event POPPED OFF. So fun to watch

[@ineedazerosuit6128]

hbox isn't nearly where he used to be, but he's clearly playing better now. he still misses a lot of edge guards and hits he used to be pretty consistent with though. happy to see him rising back up

[@TK-ev]

Thats because the current level is higher than he was at his peak. His mental stack is extremely high just from keeping up in neutral - causing his punishes to be less automatic.

[@RsLeonardo1]

@@TK-ev this makes 0 sense.

[@trivialgambit3646]

Wow the restraint! I think this might be the first time I've seen such a subtle pop-off from HBox.

[@hmmmmmmmmmm_]

Hgod simply chose to edge guard

[@Themonkeymartin]

where is the cody vs zain winners finals set

[@treycuret]

Another dub for Bubble Theory ™️

[@godzzwrath]

GODDD THOSE LEDGE GUARDS WERE SO GOOD 😭😭he was getting straight disrespectful with it

[@0knothing443]

Hbox has really mastered this matchup

[@ASDisastersama]

Did hmw called Cody a Justing wong because he is willing to match the camping of an opponent? The guy who invented MSP? What a horrible take, he's glad smahers don't know anything about the fgc.

[@Hyperbolic_G]

Cody did more camping in this set that hbox did, were you watching?

[@Letsfuckingoooooooo]

He should’ve done another reverse pop off

[@AL-lh2ht]

He also nearly died last time he did that.

[@JoeyJojoJrJr]

@@AL-lh2ht Saved only by cuddling Hbox and leeching energy from him.

hbox ftw

[@silvanb]

its 2023 and people still clap to dreamland

[@claimm564]

3:21 What was actually godlike here was how cody was able to up b and still retain his jump afterwards in a tense position like that

[@TruTwist]

Unfortunate. Cody works so much harder but then loses.

[@shinji136]

He doesn't work much harder. Fox is a more difficult character to pilot, but the matchup is extremely lopsided in his favor. It cancels out.

[@spintowin5537]

@@shinji136 Not really. It is slightly in fox's favor but that's it. SSBM was released at a time before regular patches were a thing so the game isn't close to being balanced and Jigglypuff is an example of this. She loses but only if the fox outplays hard.

[@byrne1807]

@@spintowin5537 Nah tbh his matchup is so fox favored if you don’t just literally keep throwing yourself throw yourself at puff (source - I’m a horrible fox main who keeps throwing themself at puff and still sometimes wins)

[@spintowin5537]

@@byrne1807 Dude. If this matchup is 70-30 fox favored. Why has Hbox been able to beat Leffen, Armada, Mang0, Cody handily for so long. Is he just that insane at the game?

[@tytonwiseman7995]

​@@spintowin5537you're not far off the matchup is 55-45 or 60-40, depending on who u ask, but puff has the edge guarding ability that most DONT, so it evens out

You're the first person I've ever seen say this lol most people consider him one of the best commentators.
