I haven't read such a childish rant in my life. The content of your post is obvious, and the fact that you felt the need to type it out just shows how insecure and upset you are.

Because that's boring and would leave basically nothing to talk about or get exictd about from tournament to tournament.
Its more fun to john for mango and say stuff like "mango is gonna f*** pp up so hard next time because X" etc, which then will rustle PP nation's jimmies so they will respond with stuff like "nah, PP is definitely better now because Y" and then we have some hype.
But "good job PP, see you at apex" is lame as ****.

I mean it's like football fans or whatever, right? Of course someone from Green bay is going to be convinced that the packers can't lose this year. The most reasonable path isn't necessarily correct.
That said, you can't like claim that the packers won the super bowl last year if they didn't. Armada's the CHAMP by any definition.

Stuff I'd like to see at Apex part 3:
- M2k and Armada to team again and take on Mango/Lucky in Teams GFs
- Javi vs. Lovage
- Dr. Peepee to actually look like he's not pissed off during a set for once
- Wobbles vs. Fly Aminata (spelling?) Ice Climbers ditto moneymatch
- Kage vs. Westballz
- Pewpewu vs. Mew2king Marth ditto (May have had this on one of the other ones)
- Plup vs. Darrell (Not sure if either of them are going)
- Javi vs Mew2king
- The US vs. World Crew battle to be close(r) this time
- Some faceless no name guy who no one has heard of make top ten and then have everyone go nuts about him for the next year
- More crowd hype
- Darkrain and Silentspectre need to go

ever hear the term "pound for pound the best fighter?"People who think Mango is the best are kind of silly.
"That 4'2 player has great fundamentals. If he were 6'2, he could beat Kobe. He's better than Kobe!"
either way, mango is gonna make armada his young down syndrome ****
oh and m2k would **** ppu up in a marth ditto. ppu isnt that good at dittoes and m2k taps in them
Tarv
Smash Journeyman
Oh I know.
Part of it is just me wanting to see marth dittos, and learn about them as a marth main. Honestly one could argue that PPU is the 2nd or 3rd best Marth out there right now... way below m2k. (but let's not get into that.) So, PPU was pretty much the best marth I could think that could ditto Mew2king. Not saying that m2k would lose but I want to see it more for the learning experience of how to do the MU. Although I could've easily changed it to, "m2k to do marth dittos with people"

ya i love ppu's marth too. just so entertaining and creative. i feel like marth is in a way resting on his shoulders. he seems to be on to something that other marths havent tapped into yet. id really like to see ppu break out at apex and beat a top level player. gotta get that pika matchup down though lol

Not even worth it.

Yeah me too, can't quite put my finger on it but PPU's way of playing marth just comes off as being unique compared to other marths. I was thinking that it had something to do with the fact that he doesn't try to mimic m2k exactly (like a lot of marths seem to do), so there's a bit of a different approach/style to things with him. Not really sure how viable that is though, so if anyone feels the need to shoot down that theory, be my guest.
I'd like to see him do well also, but I don't think he's quite at "top ten at apex" level of play yet but he's definitely getting there. I mean really, I'd like everyone going to the tournament to do well. It'd be awesome to have 20-30 people who have a shot at winning GFs and not just 3 or 4.

Doser: You'd be amazed how impossible it is to get people's attention when you write out something nice, polite, and thoughtful. But then I make one that's inflammatory and sarcastic and hey! I suddenly have people wanting to talk to me about it. Results, mang. Besides, if the point was so obvious, why would people keep missing it?
I'm sorry you thought it was childish. You can eat poop.
Battlecow: "The more reasonable path isn't necessarily more correct." Um.
See, I don't mind that a, let's say, Mango fan wants Mango to win. I don't mind that they believe he has the potential, or that he has a crazy-*** Fox and a slick Falco and a Falcon that's confusing but still really good. I don't mind that they cheer and scream and hope for him to win because he's their favorite. That's great.
I get annoyed at baseless assertions that ignore actual reality. And also ones that promote unhelpful attitudes, like "well if I really TRY this time I'll get him."
JPOBS: Sorry you think the way I view reality is boring. It isn't boring to me, since I seem to get just as excited as anybody else when it comes time for the hype matches. I know who I'm cheering for and who I *hope* wins (you know, besides me), and I know WHY I hope he wins and why I'll be kind of sad if he doesn't. I also know I'm not going to come on here spraying and spewing about how he SHOUDLA won and how he's TOTALLY GONNA TAP NEXT TIME because I also have actual respect and acknowledgment of his opponents' capabilities.

Damn, I didn't remember seeing PPU before, like, late 2011. I thought that he had just popped into existence at this moment, and that he was inherently mad good.
I guess this kind of things don't happen in real life...

From what I can gather, PPU has been good for a long time. Not traveling lets you fly under radars and few people keep tabs on OOR.Damn, I didn't remember seeing PPU before, like, late 2011. I thought that he had just popped into existence at this moment, and that he was inherently mad good.

I'm totally against johning after the fact, I'm not saying that you should say that you "could have won" or anything. But saying that you or your boy is GOING TO WIN, showing totally baseless and inexplicable confidence, is all part of the fun IMO. So while people who say "Mango could have won easily if he tried because HE CAN'T LOSE" can eat a bag of ****s, people saying "Oh yeah, mango's gonna win apex no problem, he can't possibly lose" are just being good fans, even if they're not actually being reasonable. Whether an attitude like that is helpful for mango's skill long-term is his lookout, not mine.

Riley Freeman: I can't wait for people to start hating, I can't wait!
Huey Freeman: So you judge your success by the amount of ill will you generate from those around you?
Riley Freeman: Hey, if people aren't mad at you, you're doing something wrong.
Huey Freeman: By that definition then, you have a very bright future.
Riley Freeman: Thanks man.
I'm not going to lie, I chuckled.
Def feelin pretty called out right now XD
It helps me play better though it's not like I suddenly hate Melee or anything. =p
makes sense, but it's not exciting as you pointed out. I think part of what keeps this game(and others) alive is hype and "baseless" assertions like Mango totally tapping next time etc. Of course there is never one cause for most things, but hype is a very significant contributor to Melee's lifespan imo.
That said, you coming in as a voice of reason every so often is very refreshing and I like it. =)

heh, thought of this match as soon as i read the post. even aside from the counterexample, i'm interested to know how he decided pewpewu is not good at marth dittos
Lots of people lost to Ken first time playing. He's got good player mindset in an oldschool Marth that people aren't used to. At least, that's how I rationalize it. Also, lots of people were "starstruck" cuz they're playing THE ****ing Ken.

I think that should be reserved for KK. I think he'd like the term "riders" also;
