Who was in the wrong?

Someone thought it'd be TOTALLY HILARIOUS AND EPIC XD to throw a crab at a Smash player during a tournament

Melee for still being alive

what do you expect of a professional video gamer?

I'd like to see anybody in this thread try to justify having a crab thrown at you for winning a videogame tournament.

IMA CRAB XDDD

Sounds stupid but hey, its smash I guess

1. It's funny.

it's just banter xD

Because you're a faggot

It was pretty funny watching him sperg. It didn't even hit him, just landed next to him, and then made him chimp out at the audience, because someone threw a dead crab at him.

Poor crab got killed just for an EBIN prank

It's the prize.

It would taste like shit

It was in Maryland, it was 100% dead for months.

I wish the entire crowd threw shit at him. Hungrybox has to know he and his cancerous puff play style is unwelcome in this community. This should become a trend every time he wins.

>DeBiedma is Super Smash Bros. Melee’s most successful player, and known for maining Jigglypuff. His dominance, combined with play on a character many consider frustrating, have made him a controversial figure and he has received harassment in the past. In 2018, he tweeted about the continuous conflict, writing, “I’m literally mocked by my peers, my competitors, and community figureheads on a daily basis. Like what’s the point anymore.”

Heh... it was dead or alive

Imagine being a grown man who plays Smash Bros using a pink ball thing.
Where's my crab?

>didn't find the guy and beat his ass

what an enormous pussy

how did he 'sperg out'

sneaking into the captain's quarters...

not surprised no one noticed the smell of some guy carrying around a dead crab in his pocket in a crowd of melee players

why didn't he take it home and eat it? or keep it as memorabilia?

I thought items were banned in tourneys.

Well you play a lame character what the fuck would he expect? There's no spectacle in his game, it's all campy and instagibbing. Who would cheer for something like that.

>Hey you’re kinda cool don’t come to the melee tournament tomorrow

How about, you are literally so good that anyone who has even came close has quit competing and started streaming and now all of those sweet pot bonuses are all yours you greedy jew

this, I hope people start bringing crabs to events just to mock him, just like that hoo-hah gu-

>look it up
>the same guy who sperged at the crab is the guy who sperged at the hoo-hah dude during a match

like fucking clockwork

Imagine the kind of autism needed to carry around a fucking crab to throw. Imagine the smell.

And then people say stinky day is a meme.

Here s your (you) , you deserved it.
But I still want to punch you in the ball, I hope you understand this mixed feeling

He stood up and randomly and started yelling at the wrong side of the audience waving the crab around, like he had full on autism.

>MUH SMASH

I need footage

If you couldn’t tell how that counted as sperging out than you are autistic enough to play smash competitively. If it hit him it be a different story, but any normal person would probably laugh as they see something as ridiculous as a crab being thrown at them while completely missing them, and then maybe shout “Hey which of you dumbasses did that”.

I feel bad for the crab.

Maryland people, how do you guys deal with the mouth parts on the smaller crabs?

>wrong side

No

I would snibbity snab those biggity babs

When you see his reaction, the crab clearly flew from behind him on the left side of the screen, but then he turns around and yells at the right.

Hey if melee wants to give us stories like how players shit themselves, harass other players for calling their autism/elitism out, and now crab throwing, they’re perfectly welcome to dance for our amusement

>gets crab thrown at him
>picks it up and yells out to audience that they're fags

Maybe he bitched at the wrong side of the audience, but he didn't "sperg out" or anything theatrical like that, he just told the audience (at large since he couldn't ID the guy that did it) that they were fags. You might argue he took it too personally, and should have laughed it off, but either way, I am more disappointed that I didn't get a spergoff, just some fags yelling at other fags to stop being fags. This thread is a disappointment.

Thing is he made it cheap. jiggs was considered garbage before hungrybox. I really don't understand the concentrated hate towards this dude. He pioneered something new in a game where every top player plays the exact same and is dominating with it. he's the dude who pulled ahead of the pack I thought thats what fighting game players aspire to do.

He should have hanged himself for cheating and maining a cheap character, and deserves to be shit on

You sound like you have autism. Just let these clubhouse kids play their game and if you enjoy it, continue to watch, but don't be such a bitch nigga.

Why don't they do the same thing? Are you actually going to argue that they aren't doing anything they can to win? what kind of competitive scene is that where winning is less important than imaginary honor?

>implying he doesn't have to work for that rest to connect
Please, like Puff doesn't normally die at low percentages.
Like playing the way HBox does, controlling the pace of the match, carefully choosing the moment to get in risking an up-smash and showing what's probably the strongests DIs and edge guards in the scene is easy and "cheap".
Why are you people so disingenuous?

who talks about melee on Yea Forums anymore? this is the only melee thread I've seen in months.

>And even if you were right, how is any of that cheating?
Because everyone else is trying to seriously play the game and get good and have fun, and this fat fuck is taking the fun out of it, and playing the same cheap ass character every single fucking time, knowing full well that it's cheap as fuck to the point of sobbing like a little girl on twitter because the other 30-year-old men were making fun of him for it.

Hbox is notorious for shitty DI

>oh no, I was proven wrong
>h-haha you're mad
Good work, retard.

Cuz its cooler when you do some crazy shit with a hard to use character then use a cheap one to float atound until you can insta kill them, style points i guess

I see, both are kind of a stretch but I accept it. At least it wasn't California

Puff edgeguards are free on spacies she has 5 jumps

Nice comp game you have right there lol. it's almost as if it's not a competitive game at all.

It's not. Being a faggot and spamming the same shit over and over removes the competitive aspect, which is why people throw crabs at him.

>pick up crab

Easy

>Because everyone else is trying to seriously play the game and get good and have fun
And Hbox doesn't?

Again, he doesn't.
>cheap ass character every single fucking time
Yeah man, just bring me fox vs fox all the day.
>knowing full well that it's cheap as fuck
But it isn't.

And I'll ask again, how is any of that (even if it was true) cheating?
He's playing by the rules. Not only that but he stopped playing lame after his Evo run in 2016, changing his style for a more aggressive "get-in" one to the point he barely wastes time in the ledge anymore, which is the main reason he's been winning so much since then. You people are blind retards stuck on a rivalry with Mang0 that the 2 players themselves overcame years ago.
This is autism.

Fucking eurocucks

Smash autists are the fucking worse. All they do is whine about some "lame" playstyle because it invalidates their stupid ass furry obsessions. They whine that the character is the best but everyone refuses to pick her because "muh honor." What fucking fags.

>The dude just wanted to play his set
Then fuck him
>get his money
For playing something designed for 5-year-olds. I mean fuck him even more then.

(You)

If only they stuck to playing games meant for competing in instead of party games. But then they wouldn't be good enough to compete though.

Well what do you expect from people over the age of 12 who still play Nintendo games?

This was the best he has played in years, I'll give him that. It would have been nice to see him pull through too but he cracked under the pressure, something old Mango would not have done. If he keeps this up and stays on top of his training then maybe he can turn things around but I kinda doubt he'll try again like this anytime soon.

You answered your own question fag. It's removing the competitive nature of the event. It's the same as playing games with someone and having them spam the same button over and over again, instead of employing any real strategy.

Crab is delicious and a meal fit for a winner

>Go back to /pol/
projecting
/pol/ is ass

I think the best way to describe this feeling is a middle finger, preceded and proceeded by a thumbs up

This. Smashfags are annoying as fuck and bitch about stupid shit. Broken characters have ruled the brackets in fighting games since vanilla SFII. Smash is not a fighter, but the people playing it will convince themselves so hard that it is.
Games like vampire savior, where the top tier character literally has an unblockable setup because his air lk is wonky as fuck and 3s, where chun needs only 2 mix ups to win any match with meter; are still played with no one complaining. They just figure out how to fight the player instead.

You still sound salty. You must be one of those crab people, bitch nigga.

He's been a good sport about all the hate, and it's not entirely undeserved considering melee is a spectator sport and will die if everyone is bored of lame jiggs play.
I have a feeling throwing shit at him is a tipping point though. He's genuinely mad now and done with playing the heel.

t. krabbe crabbington crabcakes

so jiggs confirmed best character now?

WELCOME TO MARYLAND BITCH FAG

>It's removing the competitive nature of the event
It's not, a competitive event just happened. He won without cheating, you're just mad he used a defensive style you don't like to see.
>it's the same as playing games with someone having them spam the same button over and over
You seem awfully fixated on this point, even though back-air is just a tiny part of Jiggs full arsenal, and Hbox has been showcasing several combos, different types of edgeguards other than the wall-of-pain, crouch wave-dash approaches, neutral aerial saves, rest sets, fantastic DI chases, grab sets, roll reads, etc.
His match with Zain is a perfect example of the diversity of his style.
>instead of employing any real strategy
But that's literally what he does? It's just a strategy that you don't like, but it is still a strategy, and the one that works with Puff against much faster and heavy opponents.

>the rest of your retarded post
You have serious mental problems.

Yes. Most people refuse to play her though because they can't take the hate, and another top Jiggs would 100% kill melee. It's already in a shaky spot with Ultimate around.
Fox was believed to be the hard counter to Jigglypuff for a long time. Then he was the soft counter. Nowadays it seems like an even matchup at best because it's so easy for Jiggs to kill any fast faller with bad recovery with a string of bairs.
So we're at a point where there's a character who goes even or better against every other character in the game. And that character is universally hated for being slow and campy, forcing everyone else to play her game.

Underrated

Which one is the Cancer though?

>fox in melee

What I don't understand about meleefags is if puff is the best character and or the "cheapest" why dont I ever see puff vs puff in grandfinals everytime? If its so easy just go beat him at his own game, why do they get so salty over this shit?

smelee community confirmed shit-flinging chimps

a crab's spiny bits in the eye is not "lol yall pussies" harmless fun, it's agonizing and permanent injury

you are a nigger to think otherwise

It was obviously planned. Everyone knew Hbox would win, Mango is washed, every other god or god slayer is dead or focusing on Ultimate/streaming. Like Zain and Plup are great and all but they're never beating Hbox's puff, Shiek and Marth have bad matchups and they don't have a Fox on that level.

>Puff is so boring, nobody wants to but it is super easy!
Which is very obviously bullshit. People have done much less for less attention.

Displeasure at the playstyle but also because no one has the level of match up knowledge that Hbox does. One thing that rarely gets mentioned in these threads is that Hbox has been working at his Puff game for years and didn't just show up over night.

Why get angry over it? Ozzy had someone throw a bat at him, and he just bit it's head off. Why be a soi boy and whine like a toddler because the other boys were being mean to you?

Marth does great against Puff but Zain kept fucking up.

see
no one wants to deal with the hate that comes from playing puff. Smash 4 Bayo mains were bitchy drama queens for getting like 1% of the hate Hbox has gotten over the years.
Also, let's say someone did become as good as Hbox at puff. Melee would die and all your work would go to waste. No, I'm not exaggerating, if you've ever seen a puff ditto it's the dumbest thing in existence.

this was an attempt to generate some drama to get smash back on peoples minds after being dropped from EVO.

>cries and storms off when someone throws a piece of seafood at him
Just a joke brah, why get so mad?

These threads really bring to light just how much the melee community is actual scum that would defend throwing a sharp, pointy weapon-like object at a player they don't like.

Your autism is both belligerent and disgusting.

If you entire competitive community can be destroyed by one guy playing a character correctly then your game is garbage.

Why did he get so upset? Looked on the verge of tears.
If someone threw a crab at me I'd laugh it off for how ridiculous that is.

Any other game that has the competive the players would play characters or playstyles they don't even like just for the win, I have seen it in every comp game. Also they wouldn't care much about the community's response, whats with melee players where the refuse to adapt to meta?

>I would be a cuck

Watch. One day (Knock on wood). Someone’s gonna snap and shoot up a smash Bros gathering like that fag who shot up at a nfl madden tourney.

cuck

A Chad would take it in stride. Not nearly cry.

You would cry and then you'd make a blogpost on Yea Forums about how you beat him up.

Because that's just bullshit spouted by people who blindly hate her guts and retards who got into the scene due to 20XX flashy shit. She has some fantastic tools to compensate for her glaring flaws, but those flaws are still strong and it's not that easy to play her consistently at the top level of tourneys.
Hbox didn't get actually good until 2016, where he changed his style considerably to approach more and abandoned his campy old ways on the ledge (which sill get him hate to this day), and he didn't stop evolving then; he started to evade a lot of shit with crouching some years ago and nowadays he doesn't even go for that many rests when he can, instead opting for combos that, while harder, don't have the inefficient drawback of a (almost always) confirmed punish.

What nobody mentions though is that he became a master of the fox-puff match-up because literally everyone and their mother kept picking fox for years to counter him, even if Fox wasn't even their main and just a pocket char (see Plup for example). What the fuck did they expect? Naturally he had to end up becoming ridiculously good at that match-up sooner or later.
Hell, nowadays you can almost see other characters like Marth or Cpt.Falcon putting him on tight spots more frequently than Fox-Falco do.

No jokes here though, if that'd hit him in an eye it could've been more serious than most people here realize.

No one threw it, the collective stench of a room full of smash players propelled the crab skyward spontaneously.

>playing a character correctly
No he's playing a jank ass character that would of been patched up the ass if the game were released today.
Not only that but he acts like he's the most skilled smash player of all time and is a straight up dick to everyone in the community.

I agree that it’s not good but having a little tantrum over it won’t change anything. Best to just be thankful you didn’t get crab to the eye and laugh it off. Maybe it should be condoned so no one gets encouraged to do anything similar, but shit’s funny man.

the best way to have handled this would have been to start waving the crabs pincers back and forth with your hands yelling john mccain is dead

>whats with melee players where the refuse to adapt to meta?
Because it doesn't fit this dream version of melee they have in their heads. They think if they try hard enough some magic tech will fix it, when really Puff is a hard counter to what they want to do and they need a better strat to deal with it

Im sure someone could watch his replays and figure out how to play puff like him. I just can't figure out why melee players refuse to play a character that the precieve as the strongest

melee players.

The rope. Surely I’ll be judged lightly

Lemme guess, you were "never bullied" in school because when all the kids threw spitballs and rolled up paper at the back of your head you just laughed it off and "took it in stride". Well I got some bad news buddy, when they do that, they're not laughing with you.

Did leffen not shake hands or was it something else that pissed off hbox?

nah even mango at the top of his puff era was unable to convince people it was more than gimmicks and he switched to spacies pretty quickly afterward, its hboxs runs that actually rose puff up the tier list. latest tier list from 2015 has puff at fifth and hboxs increase in success since then has many people claiming shes actually first. even when mango and hbox used puff at the same time it was noted that hbox had a significantly easier time beating top players because mango was not making full use of puffs ability

>virgin leffen vs chad hbox

>Melee is the best smash
>Dudee why are you playing with Puff???!! he is so unfair :c

Nah there was legit fights back then, but yes I'm not condoning the crab throwing. That's messed up. I was just trying to say lame players always got the most flak.

Starwars fans easily. Most starwars fans are turbo normies nowadays so the autism would be watered down more.
The melee room would smell and they would most likely be yelling twitch memes very loudly.

Leffen was talking shit on twitter and ran away after getting bodied.

how did he source a crab at this event?

The most entertaining moment in smash by far is a crab being thrown haha.

Leffen isn't big enough to pick up a crab

Why a crab? Why did the guy choose a crab?

yeah, a fights a fight. people would throw sticks, scream, but shit like this? its just... bizzare and embarrassing for everyone.

Kill yourself, tourist.

How does he act? Every Melee pro I've seen is like the lowest tier level competitor attitude wise throughout the rest of the FGC. I can't imagine he's that much worse than other melee players.

How does it feel to be an idiotic turk that throws objects at people you don't like?

SCHNIPPEN SCHNAPPEN

Anyone who actually wastes their life playing video games professionally deserves a crad thrown at them. It should happen more to these wastes of life.

The constellation Cancer is a crab.

he did nothing wrong, melee sucks

Yeah but that's never stopped smash players before. Their games are always the most popular so they also have the most trash people mixed in.

everyone who likes playing puff moved on to tr4.5h except the 1 guy whose dug too deep in the melee sands

oh good so you agree that puff makes the game garbage

Why does nobody else play Jigglypuff if that's all it takes?

>throwing the crab down on the floor in a fit of autistic rage
Why?
The crab was pure and innocent.

>unable to convince ppl its more than gimmicks
oh is that why mango switched off puff

how many uthrow rests or jab rests did hbox do yesterday? how about upB stalling into a free charged fsmash to punish marth landing on the stage with his own recovery?

Wasn’t there just a story last month of some dude quitting a Melee tournament mid-match & getting booed at for not fighting because his opponent was going full fag with Jigglypuff? It doesn’t seem like an issue resolving around only Crabby Juan.

the idea that hbox plays lame is retarded, he rarely ever camps and gets rests constantly. and dont try to say rests are lame because you know damn well youd love it if mango was the one landing them

I thought smashbabies banned items in tournaments?

Chads don't have a glass ego

Melee is all about either getting shined to the abyss, getting wobbled after a single grab or being rested after an up-throw.
That's the whole point. Everything else is just preparation. And somehow people act assblasted because they're not getting "entertained" enough when a player is literally shaking and sweating to make it to the top, whatever the means or moveset.

His ego is fine, he's hamming it up for attention. Mark my words, he'll be selling his own crab merch within a year.

Unironically based.

This would be true if not for the fact that he literally doesn't have to be as good in order to win, or if mango didn't do it first and change characters because it felt too lame. I don't know why you'd glorify the lack of tech skill/muscle memory as if your character not requiring any isn't a huge advantage.

people didnt stick around with this autism fest for 2 decades so they could sit at the corner of a stage and back air people for free stocks, the kind of people still playing melee are a very specific kind of person, except ice climber and jigglypuff players

Why not? Winning is the only thing that matters. Melee players have made this their mantra to justify top 8s filled with nothing but spacies for ages. Why does it matter that the lame unbeatable character picked only for wins is now a marshmallow instead of a furry?

a character that has infinite jumps, an untouchable wall of retreating back airs, and an instant kill setup played by a shameless asshole who won't hesitate to play like a pussy while the clock runs out.

Throw 2 crabs next time, and hit him.

former mango truly lived in the moment, he just never gave a heck to anything around him.

But circumstances change, he is a dad now, the money he wins is not just spent for his hobbies and shots but also because there are expectations placed upon him that he simply cant ignore.
It's a new kind of pressure. And he hates Jigglypuff and everything surrounding it.

OG puffs literally stopped playing it because they thought it was lame. Hbox doesn't care, he'll kill the game off with cheesy sets if it means he can be number 1. Every other god's main has a higher skillcap.

Should’ve thrown a molotov desu. Fuck hbox.

Its because smash isnt a fight and you know it. Itd be like finding brand new tech that only works for 1 character and makes them 100% more bullshit above even the toppest tier

>No he's playing a jank ass character that would of been patched up the ass if the game were released today.
Melee's whole competitive scene it built around jank. The community threw a fit when they removed that jank from the later games. You trying to say the guy is an ass for exploiting the wrong jank?

Who is there even to get mad at? The dude who threw it is probably laughing in a corner far away by then. Are you just going to jump up and down like a chimp? Literally accomplishes nothing and encourages people to throw ever larger animals at you for their amusements

Real men are in control of their emotions. That's what separates us from women, you dumb soi slurper

maybe he should quit being a bitch
if everyone hates you it's probably because you did something wrong

Stop making fun of that man for enjoying bing bing wahoo

Because everything that makes the game fun is absent when the marshmallow is on the screen. Also, you have a pretty varied spread of characters when jigglypuff isn't on the screen. Fox vs Fox on final destination was never more than a meme, especially when marth exists. The ironic thing is that top players who used to not play fox have been forced to pick him up in order to deal with jigglypuff, because it's quickly becoming clear that it's the only viable matchup against her.

that's fucking hilarious.

It's a fucking crab. A crab has never killed anybody.

If you get mad that a crab was thrown on the ground of a stage near someone you are probably inserting your autistic tendency to be afraid of sudden noise and sudden change of environment. There is no reason to be mad about this but 90% of people who follow the smash scene were livid about this to a ridiculous amount.

you don't have to be so crabby about it.

hbox was clearly in the crabs way, so him.

its not the crab itself but what the crab represents. the crab is a personification, nay, a crabification, of the entire community and all his peers disliking him.
imagine if you were in class and no one in that class likes you and someone throws a paper ball at your back and you turn round and they're all laughing at you.
what the crab represents stings more than the pain of having a physical crab thrown at you.

I'd like to see you try and judge me after you've been concussed by this crab I'm going to throw at you!

That’s completely different because he’s right in front of you instead of hiding behind a massive crowd of people you’ll never even remember the faces of a week later

...you again? Why are you so upset?

That's inherently different scenario because said person is a stranger breaking into a house. Obviously you use force in that scenario not because he threw food at you, but because he broke into your house.

The penis is what separates men from women. Men are ragers through and through, as history has shown time and again.

Fine you are at a bar and someone throws onion rings at you. The "mom's house" thing was a joke but I see you are low functioning, so how about that scenario?

The entire thing was faked by prawns and patésys of the Jewish illuminati. Think about it: The allergy to shellfish, it all makes sense.

Its also where we connect with women.
Truely the deepest lore

this is your brain on streams

Because smeleefags have the mental capacity of 14 year olds. They hate seeing all their 'gods' constantly getting shit on and destroyed by HBox so they react by throwing food at him like you'd do at your bully's back in middle school during lunch.

Thank god that the major insult against hbox is that he has emotions.

You know.

Unlike all of the major autistics that represent the vast majority of smash.
Hbox is great, smashfags can stay assdestroyed.

if it's really so psychologically traumatizing then you can just switch characters

You're retarded

Being a histrionic drama queen isn’t better than being an autist, in fact it’s worse since it makes things shit for everyone whereas autist generally stay in their corner

MERELY PRETENDING

I don't follow the Smash scene but this guy seems like he really believes he's just a misunderstood pro surrounded by a wave of what is a shitty, terrible fan base. The thing is there always has to be a villain in any competitive scene and he's that guy but he plays the sulking bitch who feels antagonized by the fan base which just probably makes it worse. He needs to revel in it and play it over the top, and be the heel he was destined to be. Or cry more and have no fun with it until he inevitably loses and people don't care anymore.

>b-b-b-but these OTHER faggots did a thing BEFORE
Alright? What does that have to do with the fact that HBox is the number one RIGHT NOW? That he's the highest rated and ranked player, CURRENTLY? They didn't fucking say 'Hungrybox is the greatest melee player of all time no ones ever been better'. They said he's the number one player, which is true. It's not any deeper then that.

t. Projecting

people don't get heckled for no reason
in fact people using end up having a fanbase of contrarians for being in that position, the fact that hbox doesn't have a fanbase to defend him says a lot

still more amusing if the crab actually hit

Why is always some faggot like you, thinking all is a conspiracy?

Literally every game that was good competitively turned out that way due to complete accident. Everytime a developer tried to follow-up with a sequel catered to the esports community it’s always been shit. Examples;
SF before V - SFV
Marvel before infinite - MvCi
Starcraft - Starcraft 2
Whatever the fuck Overwatch is meant to be
GunZ - GunZ2
Dota pre 7.00 - Dota 7.00
League S3-S5 - League post S5
Guilty Gear AC - Guilty Gear Xrd
CS 1.6 - CS:GO
Diablo 2 - Diablo 3
These are just off the top of my head.
Melee was a miracle and of course due to devloper hubris they think they can design something better rather than building on the accident and everytime the game ends up like fucking garbage. Fuck devs and fuck hbox.

Would that not solve the problem? If you're really so good then just switch characters so people have no reason to complain. The problem of course is that playing real characters is actually very hard, and you'd have to learn entire core fundamentals of the game that you bypassed by picking jiggs. But everyone says you're the best in the world so it shouldn't be too hard, right?

You are demonstrating that you have self-respect are willing to stand up for yourself. Somebody disrespected you so you need to react to that. You can't just stand there blankfaced like an autist, it just makes it look like you were afraid of conflict.

Seriously, this is basic human nature and I shouldn't have to explain this to you. Go ahead, start throwing food at strangers on the street. How do you think they would react?

You're a faggot. Yeah, that's "the right thing to do," but you are a faggot.

I know it was a wrong thing to do but why do I find it hilarious?

>gets hated for no reason for half his life

It never will and the fans are trying to inject some WWE style shenanigans to it and the pros are too autistic to realize it. and acting like a bitch probably just makes it worse.

Does he legitimately have autism?

It's scrub shit. The character is really good and wins tournaments all the time. Most Smash players revere Melee as the best game of all time (hilarious) and simply have too much autism to switch to a more balanced game where more than one character can dominate. Therefore, they lash out on the player dominating with said character instead of the game itself.

Seriously, these comments prove once and for all that Smash is not a fighting game. Every other competitive fighting game which is past the "Patch" phase is an unbalanced mess but players just roll with or move on to a better game. Smash players get so fucking butthurt. Their arguments boil down to HBox playing the game "wrong," which is not the type of argument competitive fighting game players/fans make without getting called out as a scrub.

I play Smash Ultimate and have always and only played Cloud and due to that I'm pretty good with him. But because he was deemed OP for a small period when he was released in the Wii U version, people bitch when it's me who always wins and never switches characters. The excuse is always i'm just playing a braindead OP character. They can't cope with the losses and always end up ragging, they're so shit at the game they love and use the hate as defense.

Why a crab? Why not just throw a water bottle?

UK has melee players? I thought they needed a license to play that.

you are like a little baby, watch this
youtube.com/watch?v=1Sfs9h3bIDg

ok, i'm imaging someone throwing seafood by the side of me in any situation. still don't give a shit and think you have to be retarded with a real short fuse to give a shit.

>i am showing anger in some way
It's called being graceful in the face of adversity you absolute buffoon. Figure it out.

The crab was just to cover the smell.

>nightmare fucking an underage
what

one is funnier

exactly. one is obviously premeditated which makes it even better

I'm 27 nigger and justin tv was around since like my senior year of high school

>It's called being graceful in the face of adversity
It's called being a little bitch, you aren't fooling anybody lmao

Am I really talking to a discord tranny now, because I feel like you are the type of person who unironically believes in toxic masculinity.

Gentleman, how do we stop bullies?

>puff is broken! i could be the best player in the world with puff i just don't want to lol! it's not that hbox is good it's just that puff is so broken, even though i play fox the objectively best character in the game. puff is really easy to play but there are only a couple of ranked puff players and hbox is far and away the best
>i'm going to drop out of 4 tournaments in the past year instead of trying to be the best in the world.
Why is he such a little bitch?

crab is symbol of cancer. it's meant to tell him he's cancer killing melee

Throw crabs at bullies.

Based high IQ user

Puff was always known to be a top tier character. It's just that nobody played her because she was campy and "betrayed" the spirit of the game.

He was good at a competitive video game. He used a character that the soilee elites says is "playing the game wrong." Nobody was throwing crabs at Daigo when he was winning with Ryu/Evil Ryu every single tournament.

Explain to me how staying calm and not showing emotions equates to being a little bitch. I'll listen.

Why do you believe that showing your anger is the only appropriate solution to a confrontation?

Anybody getting something thrown at their eye is gonna do serious damage you goddamn soccer mom.
>If that crab landed anywhere near his arms, it could've severed an artery!

>Throwing a tantrum like a baby isn't being a little bitch

Daigo didn’t win shit with evil ryu. Ryu is probably the epitome of SF gameplay and most things that work on most characters also works on Ryu. Meanwhile puff literally nothing works and you pretty much throw all fundamentals out the window when playing against this garbage. God you don’t even play regular Fgs what makes you think you deserve to have an opinion on smash?

>All the numbers on the Y axis are different for each graph

>if someone throws any kind of object at me I am displaying anger in some way
So if a clown gives you a drive by creampie to the face and rides off on a unicycle you're going to make sure to seethe?

He's a perfect example of what Melee's community is like.

the graph is only looking at the peek of melee
s viewers vs ultimate's/tr4sh peek you mouth breather

crabbox is gonna make you all pay by never leaving the #1 spot for melee for the rest of his crab-addled life

The decaying crab probably drowned out the smell of the melee players making it a much more pleasant experience.

So you don't think it's funny because you're butthurt about your past. Sowwy if I huwt your feewings, babby

>crabbox never infests other games
Seems like a win to me.

God I hope he kills melee before he retires.

Did you read any of my posts? >Somebody does something disrespectful towards you
>You sit there and take it
That isn't being a little bitch?

I didn't say that, you complete moron. When did I say "anger is the only appropriate solution to any confrontation"? It isn't. But if the confrontation starts with a blatant show of disrespect by one party, yes then anger is the correct response. Do any of you have friends? Girlfriends, wives? Do you care what they think about you at all? Do you care about what you think of yourself at all?

What would you have done?

>Let's make up the most ridiculous scenario possible to make it seem like I have a point
But the answer is yes, if someone throws a pie in my face I would seethe and unless you are autistic you would to. Throw a pie in someone's face on the street, what would they do? One of you answer that fucking question, please.

I don't know what you are talking about, but I have basic human emotions yes. Do you?

Damn you SJW's go pretty hard.

i like to imagine that he would've thrown the crab at hungrybox even if he lost

People have always been vocal about what they enjoy from competition. If you want to be a fan favourite don't do things that fans dislike. This isn't new and is observable in many tournaments across games. People fucking cheer in chess tourneys when someone does an unorthodox opening. Fans want excitement, it's not just a competition to be the best through defined parameters it's also about putting on a show

This would have been 100x more hilarious. Throwing it at him after he won makes that guy seem like a butthurt faggot.

what i found more hilarious was that the dude who chucked the crab was a volunteer staff

>if the confrontation starts with a blatant show of disrespect by one part, yes then anger is the correct response
do you, like...have a job? have you ever had a job before? you dont have a job, do you?

>it's not just a competition
That is literally all a tournament is. All that WWE shit is inject by fans. Which is fine, but don't lose site at what the players should be trying to accomplish which is winning and only winning.

You know 'who' it is.

look at the times you giant faggot. every single ultimate final is starting at like midnight on a sunday

I don’t have a job where people throw crabs at me

>what would you have done?
well, for starters, not given the person who threw the crab exactly what he wanted.

I know. It was rhetorical.

so... no different than the rest of melee, then? gee, it's almost like melee is an outdated game and meleefags finally need to man up and adapt to the new game.

And that's exactly what happened?

But why crab?

Attached: 1504625549991.png (239x168, 79K)

i honestly would've laughed it off because what kind of loser would go out of their way to do something that fucking stupid

You care more about what a bunch of discord trannies on Yea Forums think then people you actually know? You would rather be known as a "coward" than "emotional?"

Cool moving the goalposts fag. Someone is throwing LITERAL food at you. Throw food in someone's face on the street, what would they do? answer the question

You've brought up the first good point this whole thread

I don't even know what to say anymore, I hope someone throws some shellfish at your tranny face tomorrow see how you respond faggot.

Pound Ultimate started at like 10:30 est (although the graph doesn't show this cause its a different time zone), meaning all of America should have been awake
Melee also started late as fuck at G4 and still had more viewers
Ultimate is a shit game with shit viewership

>most successful player = current best
Truly a god tier take, you would fit right in at polygon

Cancer sign ya dingus

It's childish to throw something at a competitor you're salty about winning, no matter what you think about them. Anyone defending it needs to grow the fuck up

Symbolism you dummy. The crab is a conversation starter and invokes questions about the future health of Smash. A water bottle would be an empty gutteral expression. You see, by throwing that crab, that stranger did not merely throw shade at Hbox, but in synchronicity with the crab rave meme, made a voiceless declaration that melee is dead. He not only declared melee dead, but laid its death at Hbox's feet. Truly an aesthetic albeit crude act.

When will Smash babies realize that these aren't competitive games and will inevitably be broken by new tech?

Smash is NOT a fighting game and CANNOT be played competitively.

smash isn't a fighting game.

Good representation of his way of winning and killing the game. lmao. His sadness and anger after that was priceless.

>I don't even know what to say anymore
>Resorts to his natural state; crying about insignificant shit
Bravo!

Its also childish to throw a temper tantrum because someone through a piece of seafood at you

fans only hate hbox because he exposed that their stinky game has a solved meta. guess what - it was always going to happen. if it wasn't him, it would have been someone else. the truth is that melee is fucking old, from a time before balance patches, and at this point, it's the perfect example of why competitive players need to adapt to the latest versions of their games.

How come you guys never make your own memes?

Unlike Marvel 2, JoJos, and UMK3, which were NEVER broken by new tech

>Trump out of nowhere

But I though /pol/ was ruining Yea Forums????

This guy literally plays a video game for a living. He deserves to have a crab thrown at him. Fucking waste of a human.

what the fuck are you talking about?
I never even said smash was a fighting game
is Yea Forums really so different from reddit that you don't know how to reply to a post?

>these literal redditors telling the thrower to "grow up" while in a thread about a dude who almost literally burst into tears when he found out his retarded game wasn't at EVO on stream
This has got to be ironic.

The fanbase of those games aren't fill with buttdevestated scrubs that are mad Magneto is so good. They like the jankiness. Smash players watch a tournament and spend the entire time complaining about OP characters in the chat. It's ridiculous. They don't even LIKE the game, they just want to bitch all the time

I agree that Melee is old but this is an equally braindead alternative suggestion to play whatever is new by default. Some of the newest fighting games suck ass and that's why their scenes are so dull.

Please don't pollute the board with facebook memes, thanks.

If it has happened to any other top player besides hbox people wouldn't think it was funny and would be mad as hell at the guy for being such a douche. But it's hbox so it's a-okay to be a retarded baby and throw something at someone you dislike

Sour grapes from the NEET incels in the peanut gallery lmao

i cant tell if youre defending the crab thrower or talking shit about smashers as a whole

>about a dude who almost literally burst into tears when he found out his retarded game wasn't at EVO on stream
sauce

he should have torn into that shit and owned it
"WHOSE CRAB THIS IS"

If you could please stop bringing politics into Yea Forums I would appreciate it

Lmao

Is there symbolism behind the crab that I'm missing?

Attached: 1546763069881.jpg (463x453, 68K)

people will tell you its supposed to represent cancer but the real reason is crabs are inherently funny

>Melee was a miracle and of course due to devloper hubris they think they can design something better
but sakurai didn't try to design something "better." he went out of his way to make brawl LESS e-sports friendly, not more, because that's not what he wanted smash to be.

people throwing food on stage is a universal sign of discontent, or do you think rotten tomatoes got its name randomly?

>crabification
fuck

Its childish to be angry at someone throwing food at you?

I'm defending the crab thrower. It's hilariously ironic that there are people talking about maturity in this thread when the topic involves a manchild who is notorious for crying and whining.
You're bound to find it on Google. There's no waterworks but he falls out of his chair like an autist, sits on the ground, and spends 20 seconds reflecting on his life. It's pathetic.

HBox is allergic to them.

Well yeah, rotten tomatoes are basically a universally accepted symbol for a bad production. The crab just seemed like something more specific

oh okay, you have cognitive dissonance. thanks for clearing that up

I thought it was crab rave meme. They're declaring melee is dead.

Lets consider the facts here

>gets proven wrong
>HAHA KYS SEETHING HAHA

jesus christ that made me laugh more than it should have.

crabs are a popular food in maryland where this took place, theres also photo evidence the dude who threw it had it for 8 or so hours beforehand so he was waiting for hbox to win so he could throw it and had no intention of eating it, much like a rotten tomato
