LACS 5 Losers Finals - Cody Schwab (Fox) Vs. Zain (Marth) Smash Melee - SSBM

[@TachEdits]

Cannot stop thinking about how Ludwig yelling "C'mon Zain" led into Cody never taking another stock again, into losing the set. That's funny.

[@Frank7489]

Zains comeback game 5 was crazy

[@elise3852]

side ledge dashes help u prevent fastfalls too

[@MrKynzer]

My god

[@fhuckgoogle4171]

That comeback from Zain was truly unbelievable.

[@peashooter6628]

This is the best Zain has ever played in a game 5 situation, killed off nearly every neutral opening 4 stocks in a row and only took 76%, crazy

[@ryanphillips713]

bro actually that smash con set where he *almost* made a 3 stock comeback vs the box... even if he lost it convinced me that zain has the losers run dog inside him

[@gonzo_o_o]

Game 5 was some of the most inspiring play. Down but never out...

[@SSB_Seal]

Zain's comeback in game 5 was 1 of the coldest things I've seen all year in Melee, god damn. Perfect gameplay right when he needed it.

Spirit of Marth in game 5

[@herrojason]

zains game 5 masterpiece.

[@rat4992]

Zain game 5 is the most hype I’ve been since big house 10 what a comeback

[@leoboussouira8869]

That was one the best, most intense melee set i ever saw

[@Airestotle09]

Craziest 4 stock that last 2 minutes

[@jeremyying3602]

5:22 - the sicilian isn't a safe chess opening, btw. it leads to very dynamic positions that hang on a knife's edge every move. safe openings from black would be like queen's gambit declined or berlin defense.

[@12kojoe]

anyone who says zains comeback was the best part of this set refer to this time stamp 7:09

[@patheticworm]

best part of the set is ludwig taking off the headset mid commentary to yell "CMON ZAIN", for zain to then not lose a single stock and take all 4 of codys.

[@fupalover]

Crazy how a top level game 5 set in Melee is only 15mins. While in Ult its at least 18mins.

[@lukep2601]

Ultimate kill screens alone add 5 minutes to set run-times

[@r.u.s.e3586]

You're ignoring puff lol

[@servine1212]

@@r.u.s.e3586 Ultimate sonic is infinitely more annoying than melee puff. In ultimate there are like 5 top level sonic players. In melee there is just 1 top level puff. Cus hbox is good and his "Lame play" is optimized far better than any other puff.

[@r.u.s.e3586]

@@servine1212 I like Melee Puff better too! What I'm mainly getting at is just like in Ultimate different characters and playstyles will change the pace of the game. Melee is still the faster game when played at its peak but speed doesn't mean very much if you get nothing else.

[@servine1212]

I was just saying that instead of saying "Puff" you should have said "Hbox" since he is the only top level puff, with 1 other puff being high level (I forgot his Tag Tarik I think. But he got top 8 at a major recentish)

[@wilwn]

I’ve been watching competitive melee since 2006. The meta has evolved so much. The punish game is just insane at the elite level, exemplified in game 5.

[@nintendoking138]

Phil is a blessing.

[@Delightfully_Bitchy]

I hate that Cody hates his original tag "IBDW". Personally, I thought the tag was one of the most interesting things about him.

[@CHOPPINxLORDS]

fr without that he's just a boring fox player

[@JonCom3dy]

What did IDBW stand for?

Cody threw hard as fuck vs. Zain AND Leffen. Tbh he should've won this tourney. Shit is crazy

0:47 This is why FoD rocks, the music syncs with the fight lol.
