we miss u ppmd. You are my favorite player. I wouldn't say you're the GOAT, I think that distinction goes to Armada, but you gave everyone a run for their money. Your matches with Armada at apex 2015 are probably the most fantastic melee I've ever seen. How intensely you two push each other to the edge, how switching character becomes a necessity, my biggest Melee wish is for you to make a glorious return and again be a top 5 player.

[@andrewferguson6901]

everyone knows mango is the goat just for being so unbelievably hype. when hes hot it doesnt even look close. but yeah armada and now hbox are definitely more consistent

[@Hyperion856]

I'm convinced if PPMD was able to stay in good health and play he would be top 3 all time. Lots of arguments can be made but if you look at consistency in results and non-Gods beating God's PPMD and Armada are the top.

[@stvn9728]

Watching 2014 Apex when PPMD won at the time it was the biggest tournament to date and he had came of a long hiatus. Watching him dominate and beat Armada and leffen who at the time were the best was incredible. You realized he indeed is a top World Champ in the game after seeing that Win one of the five God Hands for sure

[@JioVega]

PPMD has always been my favorite tourney player. His falco is why I tried to main falco, but of course, I was never as good as these guys. I couldnt compare, I cant even wavedash, mostly due to having broken controllers. But still, PPMD is my hero

[@ParagonPKC]

There's not a player that I can think has ever "had mew2king's number", there's Armada and Hbox sometimes sure but PPMD I feel comes closest

[@fangiscool1]

PPMD definitely destroyed m2k in this video, but it's Armanda who had M2k's number for the longest time. It took M2k 4 years to win 1 set against Armada and he only won 1 set in 6 years. Hbox has never had M2k's number. Not sure why he's in the same sentence as Armada and PP's dominance over M2k.

[@Oscar797]

PP always felt like he was on another level. Not only was he THE Falco among the 5 gods but he also possessed that ability to soul search and turn shit around when the situation called for it. Apex 2015 Grand Finals is a prime example.

Clamer this comment and text was written using text to speech so if there are any mistakes I’m sorry that’s just text to speech You know I get chills down my spine when I see a character such as Marth or Falco or any character being played in the past in the distant past five years ago whatever because it’s not the same character when you watch mango play Falco in the last 34 years and you watch a 10-year-old Falco video the difference is ridiculous it’s not the same game it’s not the same character and he gets to a point where begin with Zain you look at him play Marth and you look at this video and you laugh. The difference is too much anyways what I come to feel after watching Millie develop is the same feeling my people felt in Soviet Union when they wash chest develop when the world wash chest about Chess is not the same game as it once was it used to be something that Indian people or Persian people play to represent something it used to be a piece of art sometimes later on it became a game to play but it wasn’t a game of pure perfect tactic that people spend years writing books about it just was not you can watch a five minute Ted talk on Chess it was not that but things have changed Chess is a game a very important game to some people That is taught at a university level that is Taught past university level. Question is this when will super smash brothers merely be considered not a game that was created by a certain person and a game on its own like Chess no one says oh this is my game I made Chess or I am the great great great great granddaughter of the maker of chess you can’t play chess I am going to sue you I’m going to have a cease and desist you can’t do that Chess like oxygen is a human right you cannot tell someone to not play chess to not take a piece of paper and start making a chess A chessboard out of lines and using random pieces of wood as pieces so one day human beings will become such great programmers can you tell them not to make super smash even if it looks just like this game this is a human right Sakurai not your game this is a testament to what humans are becoming toward humans can do they respect and reveal Chess and if so they should respect and review at this like our human Philharmonic us or orchestras or nationally protected instruments like the Armenian to duke it is the way we must think
