I am the only person I know who plays Melee and in the past only like 5 of my friends played so we only had mini tournaments amongst friends.
Awesome, that's 4 more people than I ever got :urg:

LOL, tomorrow at noon there will be no more smash Melee players in WV. Population: Dead

Mangos from socal man.

Id say

Tri-State,CA, FL, ON, even are some good areas

Shiz is still playing and so is PC chris.

They were both at ROM

Some people worth mentioning.

M2K, Pakman, Scar, Cactus, Shiz, Hbox, Canada, Chops, PC, Mango at heart, ColBol. And more

As for WC

SS, Tang, HMW <3, Mango (physically), Lucky, Ka-M, Phil is good too.

Yeah my minds drawing blank for WC

we will settle this west vs east in crew battles.
yall already know who the worse commentators are, "east coast" no doubt about it, hmw and phil ftw!
Chill brah, Alukard and DJN are funny as ****!

lol but for real HMW and Phil are hilarious too, I love both coast's commentators.

And I'm pretty sure Wife is a god among commentators. Wife coast ftw.

Alberta isn't very good compared to the rest of Canada or the Melee community in general.

Although we did have the Punch Crew + MikeMonkey as well as MagnuM. We do have superboom for anyone who plays 64 competitively.

Uh, but we're a tiny community, dwarfed by the EC canada region. Although it's nice since we're all good friends with each other, and there aren't very many distinct groups since whether you're scrub or a pro, we're all tight knit. XD

But we all suck at melee.

FL is definitely 1 of the top melee scenes.

We have 30-50 person melee tourneys every month and 1/2. We also got some of the best players in the country like Shiz, Chops, Colbol, and Hungry.

Speciifically Orlando FL has 1 of the best smash scenes in the country. Gigabits LAN center in Orlando has been holding smash tourneys for 4 years. They have brawl tourneys every month which range from 60-140 people and melee tourneys every month and 1/2 which range from 30-50 people.

The Texas melee scene was severly influenced by the release of Brawl and the relentless Brawl advocation by Melee's former TGM, Brawl's better know Samus player Xyro.

By saying things similar to, "Get off the sinking ship known as melee, you're playing a dying game," he successfully recruited many players. We are down to very few players in the Houston region, and almost no new players. We have maybe about 10 or less active melee players.

So he helped do this.

I feel Like a father who is severly pissed off at his child he cannot express how he truly feels or he might be brought up on charges. So he simply says to his kid.

"son i'm dissapointed in you"











Melee will rise!

What a GREAT summary. 100% true.

I happy to say it wont. LOLOLOLOL! Its a dead game And when i say that i mean its LOSING popularity and being hosted LESS and LESS while brawl is climbing in popularity. Oh and since brawl+ is pretty much melee 2 its almost 100% promised melee will NEVER come back.

It was a great game but its time has passed. Get off the sinking ship while you can, my arms are open!


has never fallen! melee fo life!
Brawl is the future. FACE IT!

Xyro, you're blinded by your own foolishness. A mask of how pathetic these dreams you have are.

Brawl is just an annoying bug, pestering you over and over again, in a community of humans. Eventually that bug will be crushed, but the community is foolish and stupid, and because of this, the bug will live longer. Until the community loses its foolish traces Brawl will continue to exist.

But I would hope the humans would eventually smarten up, and destroy this pest, if you catch my drift.

With that said, Montana is easily the worst state in America for smash.

Man i was studying for my geo final, decided to take a break and saw this

LMFAO!

Side note: Xyro you sound deranged. "come join us" The way you were speaking was like brawl is some evil life consuming enitiy I.e the dark gundam (bad reference I know).

If you've played both then how can you just kick melee to the curve. Thats pretty much saying because brawl is newer its better.

I could start a brand new club of people that walk/hike around the city and collect dog s**t and used condoms. Would anyone join..... I dont think so. get my point.

good speech and all..... except that its been a year and brawl is growing while melee is shrinking(except for afew events here and there[gen/evo/apex]) and at all 3 of those brawl will be bigger. Melee cant win and aint comin back.

Face the music. The numbers are against you.

Ive played melee for 7 years and it truly is the BEST game in the series. How ever, as one of the most popular and successful TOs in texas history i have seen how had it was to get new melee players and expand a scene. To get good at melee there was a steep learning curve.

With brawl that curve is still there but not as deep and because of that i get more people. The wii is mor popular than the GCN. Brawl ha MORE characters that people enjoy. And quite frankly, im tired of melee. The same old crap happened day in and day out. Brawl is fresh and we are always learning new things.

You guys can keep yor melee(and please enjoy it) but you are choosing a path of alienation and path that has a dead end......

You're answering you're own questions.
lots of people like you switched to brawl because they played melee for so long, but most of the ones staying haven't yet.

BTW i used to think you were some Hard-on for Brawl ***, but I see you're reasoning is actually justifiable.
