haha i like that kage is telling pp that as if he's not a top player, and as if pp didn't 3-0 him when they played.

Was going to say something similar to this, but less mean sounding.

I'm pretty sure PP is top 5 now. Just my opinion though of course *shrug*

True but at the same time when 2 top players fight each other.. the amount of mix-ups that is involved is pretty insane, so anything can happen.. it's very hard to control the match.
Getting better means I have more mixups and confidence and combo ability at my disposal, which can all tip the scales in my favor. Am I saying I'd win? No. I will say that a looot has changed since Pound 4(and especially TO5) for me so while it's entirely possible I could lose next time, I'd have a hard time believing I wouldn't do decently better.

Ok but doing better where you at would mean you must defeat the top 5 guys. =P

Doing better than getting destroyed 3-1 without winning seems possible to me lol. =p

kidding, I know what you mean haha.

If I want to do better from where I am presently then I'll have to stop getting close and start actually beating some of those guys, you're right. I'm working on it.

kage speaks the truth

"the better you get, the more you fall far smarter mind games"

-lambchops

m2k does such vs falco since falco has pressure but its m2k... we will see though.

Heck yeah!

<3 plank

Edit: I just wanna rematch M2K before he quits is all lol. I want to see what has changed.
normally i'd cheer for m2k, but i think your the future Kevin...i'd be hoping for a tight battle. :)

I'd like to hear mango's podcast(alot of good questions were asked in regarding to who he thinks will be his successor).

I think it'd be cool if Mango quits and think ends up like back in late 2006 and early 2007 where there was Ken, PC Chris, Mew2king, Chu Dat, Korean DJ and Azen all as the best player but no single person dominating the smash scene.

Zhu is the #1 player in the world because he powershields 50% more than a level 9 CPU Ganon.

We'd need to find a Hungrybox counter first, but I agree. I thought Zelda would be interesting (theory-crafted), but he 4 stocked Dark Hart. Perhaps Cosmo, but people agree that it's not a favorable match-up. I also used to think Jman would be the Fox to beat HBox, but he got 6-0'd. =/

My bet on the next person to dominantly beat Hungrybox will be an international player that is fluent with the match-up. Or maybe he'll be the next Mango.

Also there's not quite enough space for Dr. PeePee to fit into the Top 5, unless Amsah or Mew2King drops out of there. Definitely 6th though.

Amsah has never played PP, much less since PP started STACKIN IT UPPPPPPPPP and improvin a lot. But yeah it'd be a good match. I dunno I wanna see a lot of stuff happen with PP.

I already know who the next person to beat Hbox will be. Can't reveal though ;)

I'd definitely like to see Lucky vs Hbox, though I wasn't referring Lucky if that's what you meant :p

Another random sub-topic: Best Foxes in your guys' opinion.

I think it would be cool if more people got on his level without him coming down

It would be the case if there was x3 more people playing melee, imo.

Or

There would be more people as talented and as hungry as a true champion would.

haha. my money is on french.
i liked that the first part explained how armada was almost as good as mango... yet managed to still make armada #1.

on topic, while i feel amsah is very good, i still think he should come to more tournies to solidify a posistion
yes, i manage it to put armada on #1 which ive already explained why. hungrybox comes close after armada though. and then amsah but i think he should play gayer. his sheik is too entertaining.

but lets see how pound V will turn out. i will be there and unplug the controllers of armadas opponents.
