Wrong song, bro.Can't watch the video, is the joke that words can't bring melee down?
I saw the Polygon article and still didn't recognize him. lolI think the real question is if the people he played in pools even recognized him.
There were 700 entrants...i was told you basically got 257th if you lost both matches in first round pools
Tons of casuals entered Evo. Did you not watch pools?I don't believe this article. First off his name isn't used in the evo brackets so he might have used an alias which is normal for celebrities. Another case if he tied for 256th like myself he needed to win 2 matches. Also no melee player has confirmed that they played him or even said they played a middle aged guy in pools. Lastly knowing a celebrity they probably don't know how to play because they don't go to local smash fest or tourneys to get better. Its really unrealistic that a person that doesn't play melee beat 2 people in pools in a game where there are no longer casual players but rather competitive players. I like Taylor Hicks. I'm sure he was at the venue but he did not compete. Maybe he won 2 matches because both of them were not at the set up at the time and he advanced twice. Likely? No not really...
I checked all the pools a while back. His name wasn't listed anywhere.
I played at evo. I lost to Fiction and a rookie. I watched pools that entire day so I can say the general skill level was fairly high. Sure there were some noobs but these guys probably didn't lose to a guy that most likely hasn't played the game in a very long time :/Tons of casuals entered Evo. Did you not watch pools?
Yeah, I'm just saying that if he entered then he took the place of a bye, like MacD did.There was late registration for a huge fee.
