The Best Players.....again

[Cheeri-Oats]

@NeutralDamage

No, Ken is rusty and does not play the game as well as he used to. Mango clearly retains his skill as he ***** at friendlies during the course of current tournaments. If you want to argue about something interesting, do not include Mango in the discussion, admit he's the best, and commence arguing about the other 10 or so.

I know you were trying to prove a point, but it's going to fall on deaf ears, and people that "care" will read it the wrong way.

 

[Nihonjin]

Yes, so Ken is still the best! Joy to my ears to hear man, this really made my day

Ken would lose to my left hand.

 

[hungrybox]

Also, it doesn't matter if Mango actually supposedly "tries" for once

even if he did he has all his SoCal buddies to John for him.

Hence he has achieved

RANKING IMMORTALITY

Lmao, if I beat his Puff at Pound 5 AND won the tournament there would still be people johning for him, saying Falco's his best character or that he was hungover or that WELL MARIO'S BY FAR HIS BEST COUNTER etc, etc, bull****, etc.

cool stories brahhhh

His friends aren't the ones handing out titles. When someone does surpass him, that person will be crowned best in the world, but *I* don't think we're there just yet.

Oh I'm not doubting that at all. But those people would be ********.

 

[strawhats]

lol...hbox getting tight.

what is this i dont even.

 

[Bl@ckChris]

hmm idk if hbox will answer this readily but:

do you think mango was trying at DGDTJ?

 

[JPOBS]

mango not trying makes tournaments way more exciting. instead of him just beating everyone, them fighting it out in losers, and him beating them again..

there are interesting sets for the entire tournament in both losers and winners sides of bracket.

if mango never tried again i wouldnt even be mad.

 

[hungrybox]

hmm idk if hbox will answer this readily but:

do you think mango was trying at DGDTJ?

No, he wasn't wearing his best shirt and it was raining so there's no way he was trying.

Obviously.

 

[Bl@ckChris]

somehow i didn't expect that much salt/sarcasm from the winning player.

he really has attained ranking immortality.

i guess i'd be frustrated too...

 

[Dark Hart]

hbox I don't get it

 

[Dr Peepee]

I can understand why Hbox would be frustrated.

Just keep at it bro.

 

[Dark Hart]

I wanna know what Mango thinks...

 

[strawhats]

lol, this is exactly the response from hbox that mango prob hopes to get....what a troll (mango)

 

[Merkuri]

No, he wasn't wearing his best shirt and it was raining so there's no way he was trying.

Obviously.

Ok, so the next question is do you think it's still fair for mango to be called the best?

 

[JPOBS]

hbox do you think you're better than mango?

 

[Youngling]

cool stories brahhhh

Thank you so much hbox. Honestly I keep saying this and everyone is like "OMG OMG NO NO MANGO2GOOD."

Honestly there is no way anyone can ever be better than him, because if he loses then of course he just didn't try.

I ****ing hate that.

 

[Pengie]

LOL who gives a **** about Mango, Juan'll just keep beating him and as the old adage goes, haters gonna hate.

 

[Nihonjin]

LOL who gives a **** about Mango, Juan'll just keep beating him and as the old adage goes, haters gonna hate.

I'm for this, but I'll believe it when I see it. (And he'll have to beat everyone else as well or there's no point to it)

 

[Merkuri]

I'm for this, but I'll believe it when I see it. (And he'll have to beat everyone else as well or there's no point to it)

Hasn't he already beaten everyone else?

 

[t3h Icy]

I think it's for interesting and exciting when Mango does try, because we can see how well other players do vs him, plus if someone beats him. People went crazy when Kage beat Mango.

Also it would be frustrating for HBox I imagine since he wants to be the best, but he can't be if Mango gains "ranked immortality".

 

[VGmasta]

Yeah, I agree with Teh Icy on that one. Beating someone because they weren't trying that hard or whatever just doesn't feel as honorable.

 

[V3ctorMan]

I support Hungrybox...

You can do it man <3 n_n

Hi world.

 

[Nø Ca$h]

EXACTLY

IDGAF how good mango is. if hbox just beat his marth and fox in tournament, I DONT WANNA HEAR NO JOHNS

 

[The Good Doctor]

<3Hungrybox

 

[Nihonjin]

Hasn't he already beaten everyone else?

You mean when he lost to M2k and that IC player? Or when he placed lower than Jman, Lucky and Zhu...?

I love Hbox, but he hasn't claimed anything yet (in my opinion).

Spoiler

I might change my mind after playing both him and Mango at Pound V
though, but we'll see..

 

[Diakonos]

Hbox da bess

edit:// the best I ever had, at least

cool stories brahhhh

lol, Hbox just got +10 cool points in my book :D (for the "cool story brah")

 

[Pogogo]

Nah, peeps still give mango credit as the best because he wins teams so convincingly and has such a good record. Everytime he loses, more people will come around

 

[S l o X]

the closest ones to mango is pp m2k and hbox in that order.

its like comparing lebron and kobe to jordan homie, even though he doesn't play you know if he were to get serious he'd be up to par or better.



loool not really kobe is that ***** but still

I ****ing hate that.[/QU now you see why i dont like when ppl say isai only loses when he sandbags

 

[Stev]

now you see why i dont like when ppl say isai only loses when he sandbags

That's different tho because Isai wasn't indisputably the best player at this game by a wide margin and never did literally every possible accomplishment at this game. He didn't switch to weaker characters and STILL do extremely well at national tournaments.

Mango has never done extremely well with a weaker(mid-tier or lower) character at a national tournament.

 

[Dark Hart]

He beat Kage with Link.

Link is low tier

so you're wrong

 

[Merkuri]

He beat Kage with Link.

Link is low tier

so you're wrong

He played link for one match during the entire tournament, why would that count?

 

[Dark Hart]

He played link for one match during the entire tournament, why would that count?

because in that one match he did extremely well... at a national... which is what you asked for

 

[Devil Ray]

i personally think Mango is doing the the whole "i won't try at nationals for a year" thing on purpose. if i were him, i would probably lose motivation too after owning the world for 2.5 years straight. Mango probably wants to take a year to sandbag, and then create a situation where he can prove himself again. maybe pound is when he'll take things seriously.

but if Mango is doing this consciously, it's a hell of a gamble. if he loses, he'll be perceived to have lost a step or two. If he wins, he can only re-confirm that he's the best in the world, which many already believe he his.

 

[Dark Hart]

I mean Ken basically won everything back in his day, then he just stopped.

Mango is young and I'm sure he loves the game and doesn't want to stop.

At least until he's old enough to get on survivor

 

[Stev]

Mango has never done extremely well with a weaker(mid-tier or lower) character at a national tournament.

I said weaker characters anyways. CF is a weaker character. He still beat chops and got, what, 9th at ROM 3? I suppose he used some Marth, but it's not like his Marth is amazing or anything. He may have done better as Mario at APEX had he not faced Eggz who actually knows how to play Mario, but that's pure speculation

 

[Merkuri]

I personally think Mango is afraid to try again in a national again because he doesn't want to lose his title as best. He could not even attend Pound 5 or Genesis 2 and people would still say he's the best. It's kinda ******** actually.
