Liquid'KDJ Stars in a Hilarious HyperX Commercial

[The Derrit]

In what is definitely the first (but hopefully not the last) commercial featuring a sponsored Melee player, Liquid'KDJ shows off his skills while... settling a score at the bar? Featuring Liquid'KDJ and other local Boston players, HyperX's commercial puts together an unlikely premise with a just as unlikely game setup (why are the opponents playing on opposite TVs?) but if you like Melee and seeing top players show off some personality, you should get a kick out of this.

Who do you want to see in a commercial? Make up your own Smash commercial premise in the comments below!

The Derrit didn't think this was for real at first. Follow him for all things gaming and Smash on Twitter at @TheDerrit.

Not what I expected.

Genius nonetheless.

 

[AceMan]

Agreed, one of the best commercials in ages, I wish that was how the world worked though.

 

[NintyTheRagekid]

SEEN IT!

In all seriousness, we barely even see any gameplay.
All we get is KDJ yelling at a TV screen, but it's still funny.

 

[S-Loxe]

First thing I tough was strange was the 2 televisions for 1 gamecube... Could they use split cables or what? Don't think so '-'
Wish there was a big scene of Smash here in Brazil T^T

BEAST IT BEAST IT BEAST IT

I probably laughed more than I should have at the part where KDJ's friend basically just lunged at the other guy after being tapped lightly on the back

Would love to see more of these.

 

[Cancel]

Not bad.

How he acts in the video and what he does kinda reminds me of FreddieW.

 

[Sir Skaro]

Falco would be used to represent the antagonists

Playing on opposite TVs like that was a format MLG used for Doubles back in the day. It's pretty cool.

 

[Newt Floss]

Hilarious? Have some journalistic integrity and stop editorializing!

(I'm kidding, of course)

Did they also wear headsets to talk trash to each other?

"This just in, Husband has been escorted from the venue after attempting to strangle SephirothKen! More to follow."

 

[LIQUID12A]

I'm not so much amused by the video itself(which still killed my lungs), but from how many competitive players use the pen name Liquid.

 

[C_Mill24]

Reminds me of the video hungrybox was in with his new controller. So cheesy.

 

[Estwood]

"KDJ! That's my DJ!" Who remembers that?

 

[Yams Everywhere]

Is that boys getting chocked by kdj lol?!

is this guy for real?

 

[Tacoo]

Well, It made me laugh. d=(^_^)z

 

[RascalTheCharizard]

Didn't Hbox do a Gamecube controller commercial? Or was that just a joke video?

 

[Zone]

Eh.. not to be a downer but I thought it was mediocre lol. Definitely not BAD though.

 

[QuickLava]

I have one thing to say. BEAST IT!!!!

 

[Johnknight1]

NO DEE EYE!!!!!

 

[Squii The Fish]

Headset for across screen action.

[Nicco]

good thing they have two CRTs, otherwise they might be screen peaking!

 

[Suli Hyuga]

This video has been rated 9/6 on IGN. Sponsored by Sony's Doritos and Walmart's MLG-exclusive Mountain Dew Baja Blast Edition.

 

[Rambeard]

This is slightly disturbing, actually.

 

[HappyW@nderer]

Um.....what did I just watch???

If you hate the community, then why are you here?

 

[SSBM_HypnoToad]

Because I enjoy this video game.

then don't comment.

 

[SSBM_HypnoToad]

then don't comment.

But seriously, did you really think this was funny? You people laugh at everything, like when somebody says: "No DIIEYYY" or whatever. That's not funny at all.

We're just having fun. So what if it's not fun? At least it's entertaining to us.
