back when ken was the best he lacked what mango enforces today total mastery over his chartcer in everyway. Ken was thought of having it back then but nothing compared to mango and mango from all the matches i've really doesn't make many mistakes or anything he's just ungodly smart. Really if you compared ken to today's high level I think he'd be just at pro level like where he places welll but not as well as maybe zhu,woobles, Darkrain and junk.

call me out maybe he would've adapted and caught up to m2k.

amazing video not to different from our game.

Back in the days ken was amazing, and no one could beat him, he was doing the least mistakes.

Now, Mango is the best, doing the least mistakes. He's not perfect or anything, just better than everyone!

If he ever quits, someone else will take the lead and we may have a discussion about who would be the best between player X and Mango, if he ever was playing again. But still, Ken doesn't play anymore, he's not among the best players in the USA. Would happen the same for Mango if he quits today. In a couple years, he would not be among the best.

If they ever play again, it's a bit ridiculous to consider if they would catch up or not... They showed great expertise in adaptation, maybe they would catch up at some point, depending on their will. Being the best again, after a couple years, we will never know.

I argee I just was thinking about the levle of control powersheilding lasers into combos I doubt would happen as much and I bet super long ago sh fake laser would've been nearly useless why wouldn't you shoot a laser?

But really in melee I don't think there's a limit maybe human limit but no limit in general. Party why I think I can be amazing with pichu i'm the limit.

Ken is the number one reason I sometimes feel like switching to Marth.

EDIT: SSBM - Where amazing still happens.
