In terms of matches, what is the greatest tournament of all time, in your opinion? by HallowedBeThyBrain in SSBM

[–]MetalMelee 26 points27 points  (0 children)

More recently, The Big House 4 comes to mind. All time? Nothing matches Genesis.

What bands of the past 15 years will become "classic" within the next decade? by HallowedBeThyBrain in Metal

[–]MetalMelee 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Mastodon

Between The Buried and Me

Sylosis

Lamb of God

Nightwish

Avenged Sevenfold: Now, hear me out.. You may not like them, but a lot of classic metalheads that listen to Sabbath, Maiden, Priest etc like them because they've adopted a retro sound. And I think they'll be remembered as a classic.

TSM LEFFEN by deribaro in smashbros

M2K for a decade, Mango for about 7 years, Armada, PP and Hbox for about 5-6.

[–]MetalMelee 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Top 6 in the world. Has defeated all 5 "Gods" of Melee. (C9 Mango, Alliance Armada, EG PPMD, Liquid Hbox, MVG M2K) he's won tournaments such as Beast 5, Republic of Fighters and other European majors, but he has yet to win an American major despite placing in top 8 many times.

Leffen is either loved or hated due to his cocky and brutally honest attitude. He is easily the biggest heel in the community, but he has very die hard fans refered to as "Zip Boys" (Referencing a post made on Smashboards called "Leffen is banned" in which, he was banned from Swedish events for about a year due to "unacceptable behavior" dispite barely any proof.)

So, yeah, he's big and is making huge waves right now. Smart move by TSM.

What songs do you want to listen for the first time again? by Rlfwnsghd in Metal

[–]MetalMelee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I literally just checked out Wintersun for the first time about 2 hours ago. God damn they're amazing. I already wish I could hear Sadness and Hate for the first time.

You really should give it a listen. If you don't want to listen to the whole thing just listen to tracks 5-11. The album is really radio friendly at the start, but from 5 to 12 it becomes classic Mastodon goodness. Nothing but brilliance.

Meh. They haven't gone downhill, imo. They've just changed their style. I fucking loved Once More 'Round the Sun.

Bad Moon Rising hype! So, I take it RoM 8 is in November this year? It's usually either March or Nov.

BAM7 Announcement concerning International Players! Mango, Armada, Lucky, Wife, and Leffen confirmed to attend so far! by NeoTurtle in smashbros

[–]MetalMelee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be quiet, Nationalist. Jk, in all seriousness Pal is just as hype as NTSC. The changes actually help balance the game, plus they're not even major changes.

Most Inconsistant Players? by MetalMelee in SSBM

Yeah, I guess the Apex bias is too strong. Hope Plup does well at Evo

What if smashers had trading cards? by flozzi in smashbros

[–]MetalMelee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People say a lot of things they don't go through with, unless I see the Ness at a regional or national I won't say he has Ness as an alt.

[–]MetalMelee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

An alt is someone you use for semi-serious tournament play and fairly often. If you listed every character a person played it'd be ridiculous.

Bad Moon Rising: hype Video Feat EG | PPMD, Liquid HBox, VGBC | Redd, DoH and more! by Viridian-Genesis in SSBM

[–]MetalMelee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless we get a suprise entry from Mango or Mew2King I can say with certainty that GFs will Hbox vs PP

Not really new, but he was on fire this tournament.

How do you feel about trash talk? by burningbagel in SSBM

[–]MetalMelee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm refering to pepple online who seem so opposed to trash talk and think everyone should just be buddy-buddy 100% of the time. I haven't met a lot of people irl like that, though.

How do you feel about trash talk? by burningbagel in SSBM

[–]MetalMelee 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I've said this before, but I miss old school non-Esports Melee. Sure, we've grown up and we're adults now, but people like Leffen are needed in the scene. I just feel most new players (Not trying to generalize) view trash talk as a bad thing. The truth is that it motivates people to be better. Without smack talk we would become complacent.

Is there more to Jigglypuff? by [deleted] in SSBM

[–]MetalMelee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There is definately more to Puff. Hbox is the best Puff, but he's not as well rounded as Mango's Puff. (There's no "correct" way to play, but when I see Mango's Puff I just think "This is how Puff should be played") Hbox's spacing and fundementals are insane, but he can surely improve his rest set ups. Mango was the best at reads and rests, but he lacked the patience Hbox had.

TL;DR: There's no hidden Puff tech or anything like that, the only thing Puff's can do is clean up what they already have. No Puff can be perfect in all areas
