I think it's adorable the people still hate on Hungrybox; so he doesn't win a couple of tournaments and all of a sudden he's an overrated player that just back airs and gets rests. As if that undoes all of the other things he's accomplished beforehand.

Where amazing happens
Mango lost to Hbox today as Fox, how does that make people feel?

I don't know what to think, i also don't really care because mango vs lucky would have been wack, whereas seeing lucky tap was awesome.

I feel like its something like this:

Armada > Dr PP > M2k > Hbox > Armada
which is like a circle.

Amsah hasnt played m2k or pp so idk, he's good tho.

Lucky for prez. jesus walks on water.
makes me feel Sad.

Hbox loses to m2k once and suddenly M2K > hbox? you guys are dumb lol
At WATO 12 (or was it 11 I cannot remember), M2K beat Hbox in WF, lost to him in GF, and forfeited the second set in GF to focus on Brawl so I believe RoM 3 was actually the second set M2K beat Hbox (at least recently). But still, you are correct in saying that Hbox losing to M2K does not necessary make him worse than M2K. ;)

as far as I know m2k used to beat hbox (refers to Herb 3 and other sets m2k won) before hbox improved. Even after hbox's large spike in skill, m2k's sets with him were for the most part usually close. It is fair to say though that people are beginning to catch on to hbox's tricks. He might wanna change it up as Ally said: "Bair is starting to get old".

btw...m2k gave hbox the everlasting **** in their match at RoM 3. Get counter gayed hbox lol.

@Pengie: I agree that hbox is still a good player, but JB said something on the stream that made me stop and think. He said when he sees hbox he doesnt see the champion aura that someone like mango, m2k, pc chris, ken, azen, even dr.pp potentially has. He's a really good player. However, the few tourneys he's lost should not be overlooked. We should wait till Pound 5 and Genesis before making any rash judgement calls

I cant help but read this as "The huge amount of **** he's won means nothing to these few loses which are apparently proof that his time is nigh" Also how is M2K who is not winning nearly as much as HBox still somehow considered better? Like, the few loses Hbox has are apparently important but the far more significant loses of M2K are apparently not. This thread reeks of scrub, people dont like Hbox or the way he plays so they just have to find proof that he's not as good as the people he's beating. Hbox is easily one of the top 3 smashers in the world, he does work on pretty much everyone, why everybody hatin?

Also this post is not in anyway an attack on m2k, if he just gave up that brawl isht he could easily become top dog again as long as Mango is ****ing around with Mario.

LOL @ Mango doesn't win anymore.

He doesn't try.

And the funnier thing is.

He doesn't try with characters that are terrible.





And still kicks the **** outta you scrubs.

Edit: This was directed at the OP. I didn't realise that this thread is already 7 pages in. (40ppp)

What? Dude where have you been? Hbox kinda wrecked Mango's fox in tournament this pass weekend, yeah the same Fox people claim is godly. Mango tried but it didn't make a difference. He reign is coming(has come?) to an end.

Haha I don't follow West Cost tourneys.

And it doesn't count if Mango doesn't go Jiggs.

Cuz when he's not Jiggs it means he's not trying.

mango went jiggs second set on kage and mango is still the best..until hbox or someone else starts winning every tourny like he did..

if x player wins pound 5 and genesis 2..i will say he is the best,but i doubt the same person will win both(unless its mango..not scorp)

Lol, and then he goes to win Pound 4 afterwards, so... WAT?!
My point was not all the sets where Mango doesn't use Jigs mean he's not trying and it would be ******** to think that was the case. The best example I can probably give is Mango vs Jman. When Mango uses Falco against Jman he usually 3-0s him with some 3 stocks here and there, the one time he went Puff against him at Winterfest he almost lost the entire set. Sometimes it's in Mango's favor not to go Puff against an opponent, and some people are too stupid to acknowledge that.

There is a reason why people pick up secondaries.

Mango's Falco get's off harder then his Fox.

Also just to counter act your little "Kage Beat Mango's Jiggs".

1) He was hung over (lol I don't counter this as legit but it's a fact that could have influenced his play).
2) Mango's ****ty Link beat Kage's Godlike Ganon at RoM3.

Wasn't he hung over when he won Genesis?

pound 5 is going to be so much harder when jman is playing like he was last weekend..plus he has more confidence

Mango needs to try again because i want to see Mango vs Amsah

True, but kage made more than a handful of fundamental mistakes during that match (regarding the link MU specifically - I even posted a critique in the ganon boards for any ganons that wanted help vs link). He definitely should have won imo. It looked like it had been a while since he played a good link and I believe he would do much better if they ever have a rematch.

Trust me, I'm not sleeping on link. If you aren't patient/don't play cautiously link will **** ganon. I'm still going to go with a slight advantage to ganon though, imo without the chaingrab it would be pretty much even.

Yeah and if he doesn't, if he uses his mains an still people like you will still unquestionably think he's the best. You're hopeless.

@PB&j; I really don't think Jman has a chance of ever beating Mango. It doesn't matter how good he is playing. Mango simply knows how to beat Foxes like him, pretty much the same thing applies to M2k.

If you seen my earlier posts you know I definetly don't meat ride Mango, I was complaining earlier that people think he's the best solely based on friendlies, yet at the same time half of those people say on other threads that friendlies don't count. They just contradict themselves and it makes no sense.

My posts was basically me saying "I hope he wins both".

i think there are a select 3-4 players who, if they win pound, i will honestly consider now truly maybe the best player...

(either mango, hbox, pp, or amsah/armada)

personally i think mango is just gonna step it up and **** everyone.....he really convincingly destroyed pound 3 and 4.... pound is his ****.
