Honestly so proud of myself. Nearly 7 years of grinding comms for an opportunity like Wavedash and I rose to the occasion and did a damn good job. So grateful to Dreamcatcher Gaming, Top Shelf, MetaShift and any and everyone else that gave this lunatic a shot. Melee forever.
"Dunks" of this quality lost their edge in grade school. I'm fat, no doubt about it. But I don't measure my worth by my appearance, I measure it by the love I can give and receive. I'm thoroughly proud that I lead an empathetic life. That's something that you'll never understand.
A top player asked me to warm him up for ARMY at my local. We played one game, I practically got JV5'd. He nodded for a bit and then said, "so you don't really hold center at all, huh?" He then unplugged and walked away.
idc about your tier list trends
tell me about that one time you got so unbelievably fucked up by someone in melee that it still lives in your head rent free
I'll start:
if you had told me 2 years ago that Gio would spend tens of thousands of dollars for a chance to lose to KoDoRiN in pools, it probably would have been the least surprising news I had ever heard in my life
(1/2) No, bro, you don't understand I'm practically in tears of happiness right now. Commented on how Twitch chat was likely roasting me for my weight and this was the response. When I kicked off the Hugo Roast I had one of the best days of my life but the chat was so brutal-
I love how common this is
"umarth is a shit tag"
"his name is umar"
"based"
"salami is a shit tag"
"his name is salam"
"based"
"PhDeeznuts is a shit tag"
"he's getting his PhD"
"based"
Like seriously, this really bums me out. The most beloved figure in the Melee scene saying this and getting an overwhelmingly positive reaction to it pretty much confirms my feelings that I'm unwelcome in this space. But then I'm just an obese fuck idiot, so whatever.
(2/2) Seeing this much love is so new and wild to me. Twitch chat can be such a horrifically toxic place (in fact it was during Melee top 8 tonight) and it's something that can only change with considerable outward kindness from wonderful folks like these. Fuck yes. I love y'all!
Mang0: *uses homophobic slurs over ten years ago while being a literal child*
Community: oof ooh what a bad dude ouch he's bad
BBB: *uses homophobic slurs as a modern day grown man*
Community: Honestly? Pretty sick Falco.
@FictionIRL
Also worth noting that Hbox specifically avoids playing in that manner until he absolutely has to, most likely in an effort to prevent us from wanting to do something about it
"Why aren't there any woman top players?" Answer tier list:
S: The scene is still generally uncomfortable for women, giving them less presence and drive to grow
A:
B:
C:
D:
F: It's Smash BROS not Smash BRAS
Sub-Z: Girls are bad (and all its equivelants)
Had to go in to work early this morning for a HUGE delivery.
Over 100 pizzas
Over $1200 bill
Took two trips to make it happen
All with my personal automobile
No tip
Fuck people
THE NEW 818 PR IS HERE, BABY
Featuring our esteemed competitors in their natural habitat, Trustworthy Brewing Co aka Verdugo, brought to us in glorious fashion by the PHENOMENAL
@milqtost_vg
Much love to all the best region in the damn world. Here's to a dope 2024 <3
NoFluxes drops the "pipe bomb" on this they/them freak show of a community. The same people that want to tell me it's not a right to compete for their tournaments will also cry about being "misgendered" and make a huge deal about their little pronouns. It's funny because it's not
@MedzSSBM
@FictionIRL
It was not. Shep would have phrased it in a more constructive way and said he could see the improvement and THEN unplug and walk away.
@arJunebug
@ReddSSBM
Somebody should make a thread of memories. Unfortunately I think I and most other people only know of him from the infamous SD set and based on your tweet he deserves better than that. RIP 💜
I'm gonna be the best ICs in SoCal
All I have to do is kill ARMY, Dr. Light, Jago, Kage, Zack Fair, Friend, Daddy, Beryl, Faint, Nigo, Calcifer, Rato and all the SoCal ICs I haven't met
...
And Gio
Tomorrow is my first day of classes at Cal State LA
I'm 32 years old and for the last 22 of those years I've felt in my heart of hearts that I am a failure and will only ever be a failure.
Hopefully this is the start of a change.
Not the result we wanted, but I wouldn't trade
@Ringler_SSBM
's Summit campaign for anything. It was a huge community effort and it was beautiful to be a part of. To everybody that voted and especially to those that contributed to the content machine, thank you
Ape Gang forever🦧

who is a wonderful person and a fun streamer and content creator, check him out please💜
🥹 I'm so happy, dude. Shoutouts to everyone that was so kind to
@_DoctorNo_
and myself, there were many more than this and I'm so so so happy omg I love y'all
imo bans in the smash community should serve to protect the people within it and shouldn't reach far beyond that. We banned the diddlers to protect children, we ban transphobes to protect trans ppl. I don't rly see what a perma ban for bobby would achieve

@TempoAxe
They were, however VGBC has said that a Nintendo representative they spoke to recently implied verbally that they would not be able to do so going forward, quote, "those days are over"
For anybody out there that still doesn't get it, this is why we love Shep. This is the energy he brings to every local and everyday life. Fuck yeah, Shep. Fuck yeah, Schmoop. FUCK YEAH, Shadow!
NEW 818 PR, YA CUTIES
Period is 1/1/23-6/30/23 because that way I don't forget to do it. Yep. That's what motivates my dumbass.

follow them or you're dead to me!
Now go and rest our heroes
Do you think if I got a coaching lesson from Fiction early on he could have told me I'm trans from gameplay alone?

"So I don't think the nair is a bad option here... but has it occurred to you that you might be a lesbian?"
For stage legality in Ultimate we should use the omega version of Battlefield and the Battlefield version of Final Destination just to remind Nintendo that we don't give a fuck about how they think the game should be played
Taking my final for my math class tonight. Sitting at a 92% somefuckinhow so as long as I don't hyperbomb it I should be one step closer to my AA. Applied to Cal States too so maybe I can even get a "real" degree, something I've thought was impossible for most of my life.
Politicians claim "in God we trust" but they pretenders
The fruit they bear is proof that God the Father ain't the center of their lives
They support abortions and push gay agendas
They're free mason members sent to open doors so Satan enters
HAPPY NEW YEAR 818!!!
I don't the fuck know how to name these things, the period for these rankings was 07/01/2022 - 12/31/2022

Player Spotlight: E-tie, for beating 2saint twice en route to 2nd at Spectrum
HM: Monday Night Melee's TOs for instituting the "Fiction rule" and letting players enter bracket multiple times for different characters.
First good tourney performance in a while
Highlights:
-Beat a superior player with all Sheik
-Abused ICs as a counterpick to demonstrate why FD needs to be banned
-Tricked bystanders into thinking I was holding my own against Fiction while he used our set for tech practice
