this is not the greatest losers run in melee The greatest looser run of all time was Mango's Pound 3

[@turndownforwalt]

@@ayrtonpavot3096I think it’s fairly close between these two, could make a fine argument for either

[@KTDBOGKUSH]

@@turndownforwaltCody had an amazing losers run but I still think Mangos pound 3 run is still the greatest losers run. Respectfully

[@jmanzplan2074]

Can’t believe Mario won a major. Congrats Walt what a crazy run.

[@user-kh3jj4rx2v]

You joke, but I'm ready for it

[@turndownforwalt]

Thanks I really hope I get ranked this year

[@jmanzplan2074]

@@turndownforwalt I’ve got no doubt. Good run buddy. Your best friend, Hbox Jr

Hate it when the top comment is a spoiler

[@hankstrandberg424]

Quick note from the writer here. I meant to say that was Plup's first super major grand finals since Big House 8. Sorry for any confusion

[@dakat_]

Junebug's run is the best thing thats happened to melee in a while. Our PM bois doing god's work :)

[@vwtdi1579]

Hell ya!

[@zenothys9119]

Probably since Amsa exactly a year ago? ;)

[@dakat_]

@@zenothys9119 yeh! Its just special to see "non-traditional" characters suceed

[@Flame26667]

Definitely giving an honorable mention to Ossify. He took Zain to game 5 and looked super strong dude. Looking for his breakout tournament!

[@arac7690]

Felt like the whole venue was crowded around to watch that one since it wasn’t on main stream. A highlight for sure

[@cullenhutchison6528]

I'm surprised the death pit that was losers top 16 with only one of Jmook, Wizzy, and Zain being able to make top 8 didn't make an honorable mention.

[@emmbeesea]

Godspeed to the ranking panel members. The 2023 SSBMRank is going to be one heck of a doozie.

[@Caesarsal4d]

i wish walt commentated live sets honestly, he makes the game so interesting and actually talks about he game in a charismatic manner

[@turndownforwalt]

I actually had a pools block at Big House and I’ve been casting at events for a little while now!

[@treehann]

@@turndownforwalti remember hearing you say “I just made a video about that!” But I forget what “that” was. Great commentary in any case 😊

20XX - Everybody plays Fox 2023 - Everybody got played by DK

[@rickyspanish4335]

Wait did we forget the mango 4 stock on aklo tho, that ending was electric (today is about cody tho, yes)

[@momo_11o9]

i'm a card-carrying member of the plup club, but cody's run was absolutely incredible. he beat literally everyone conceivably ranked above him, in a row. wow.

[@crustitoad8175]

tbh i really wish plup won, this is his THIRD big house second place...

[@Aquixus]

Poor Plup dude... he'll get it soon dw

[@palatonian9618]

I remember watching the top 8 and seriously wondering if Cody was going to have the steam to beat that many insane players. Absolutely superhuman

[@kcforcemultiplier]

babe new jv5 just dropped

[@thomasa4749]

I love the jv5! good shit walt

[@klarekeum7330]

The reason why walt is having ness on the intro is because ness is hidden S tier

[@PadreBean]

No honorable mention to Morsecode beating Cody is another example of samus erasure

[@henryreturns1397]

- iBDW at TBH 11 loses to a Samus named "Morsecode" with some numbers and proceeds to have the losers run of his life and the best losers run on the modern era - Mang0 at Pound 3 loses to a Luigi and to SilentWolf , and proceeds to have a losers run of his life with an extremely wack stage list , the best losers run on the "dark era" - Mang0 at Press Start , did not even wanna go cuz it was gonna be a Top 128 bracket in a single day , comes anyways and its DQ from Round 1 cuz of him been late , and he was complaining that it was Mother´s day and wanted to see his mom. Mang0 then proceeds to destroyed the whole bracket , he was never in game 5 , and he even 6-0 Fly amanita in grand finals , and Fly Amanita was having the tournament of his life. All of these from Round 1 Losers bracket.

[@m8mZ]

dont forget summit 11 where mang0 beat the same people that cody did for big house

[@WhoPlaysMc]

@@m8mZ Beat a Zain that was clowning on everyone even

[@m8mZ]

@@WhoPlaysMc from losers game 10 grands, cody’s is definitely impressive but idk how summit 11 is not talked about more

[@WhoPlaysMc]

@@m8mZ I think Summit 11 was the most impressive losers run of all time but Cody's is undoubtedly the most impressive since, and there haven't even been many losers runs to win since Summit 11 happened, so it's no surprise people are talking about it. Cody made history on that day.

[@NicolasMuñoz-p8g]

If mango lost to a luigi and to silentwolf why wasnt he eliminated? Was that tournament not a double elimination one or wath?

[@rangermike5571]

Literally the nicest shot of all time

[@Stioli]

Father Walt back again with another JV5 banger.

[@SalingerSays]

Mangos evo losers run will always be the best one, imo. This was def one of the best tho

[@PaintyMainy]

20DK 20DK 20DK 20DK 20DK 20DK LESSGOOOOOOO DK MAJOR WIN ANY DAY NOW.

[@raiyansy34]

Was Leffen counted as attending because he signed up but dropped out last minute - in reference to all the 2023 summer top ten bring there

[@bot_matt]

The world NEEDS to see more of Zasa. She’s so dang good, and better be seeded way higher at her next major

[@MrJholshouser41]

This has to be the first time none of the gods won a single major. I think hbox won 2 last year and mango won 4.

[@danielchristensen3657]

Cody is the best player to ever touch the controller. Losing to Morse code like that is truly the best play I’ve ever seen. He is the uncontested GOAT. He’s proved his legacy at this point and he’s the true Losers run champion. Also his fox is stylish as hell and no one in history, not even Ice, has a fox that can play so well like that. He just plays so well. And he’s sponsored.

[@Windraesa]

just leaving a pity comment so you can see in your notifications that someone interacted with this rubbish comment so you get a endorphin hit for a couple of seconds. Take care.

[@vwtdi1579]

We should be asking what Cody is saying to any sponsor offers. He cant be at this level and remain sponsorless without something serious.

[@Burnabyboy]

Why is Nintendo so hellbent on ensuring people aren't happy? Why do they have to constantly be a thorn in the side of anyone who enjoys what they've made?

[@chubmelee]

I wish you went a little more into wizzy vs polish! Game 1 polish 4 stocked wizzy, game 2 wizzy 4 stocked polish lmao

[@ethansorenson]

Love this

[@Swix_FGC]

People forget that junebug was the best PM player at one point

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

Used to avidly hate Cody, but dude is winning me over. He is making it hard to not like him. Aside from him have one of the most boring, albeit impressive, foxes. But that mango combo on moky was by highlight of the tournament to me. I was popping off at work watching.

[@biggiecheese2004]

Personally the Aklo link had me hooked but both were great moments

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

@@biggiecheese2004 His link was sick. I dont remember who he used it against in top 8 but it was awesome to see and I really wanted to see a game 5.

[@dubudub876]

if cody gets signed by sentinels ima lose my shit

[@JtCoronaOnTheMic]

He’s number one now, right? Right!??

[@Zega_]

let’s go harry poggers

[@MrGetownedLP]

New Walt Wideo Wessay, insta-like

[@jameshalldorsson9695]

definitely the single greatest losers run in Melee history, 11 sets, 5 top 10 players, there is simply nothing that compares. I'm still blown away weeks later, Cody undoubtedly deserves #1

[@Michael-hc2hp]

Cody probably my second favorite player. The only player I'll root over him is Plup, and while I would've loved to see Plup win his first supermajor since Genesis 5, I was all aboard the Cody train because I wanted that losers run to end on a win

Man, Cody's been a fun player to watch. Dude seems to just keep leveling up

[@danielchristensen3657]

Cody is truly the GOAT of melee undisputedly and this video convinced me of the that! Nothing is better than seeing Cody catch a dub!!!!

[@leonardomontanez3482]

I know we say it's ONE of the best losers run ever, but I can't think of a better losers run, tbh.

[@InvadorJoester]

Mango Press Start???

mango pound 3 was better

how is this better than Hbox's evo 2016 loser's run

great but not the greatest

[@latrellwuttunee1128]

this guy receives so much hate , that's probably why he cant get a sponsor. also the reverse pop off against hbox is a stain on his rep

[@user-ko7gk8wz2p]

i love cody but if theres anything giving him a stain its not the reverse popoff lmfao

[@biggiecheese2004]

I agree but Hbox is also super fucking cringe having a meltdown everytime he wins. His pop offs are so stupid. Bro wins one match and jumps out of his seat and starts beating his chest like he’s King Kong. I don’t really think Cody is was wrong for that, Hbox pop offs are obnoxious

[@ZackSilver77]

All that woke jargin sure is annoying

[@Technohunter682]

i felt so bad magi her bracket was so fucking cursed

[@gjisahappytoad9408]

Zaza is a guy pretending to be a girl so skipped his section. Hopefully there's no more delusional weirdos you wanna talk about.
