Every time I hear Leffen complaining about how broken Yoshi is, it just fills me with joy that aMSa single-handedly made Yoshi a viable character to play as
Leffen is the king of "not my fault i lost, it was the game's fault, not your skill" also anyone that gets angry about yoshi doing well is just pouting that they followed the meta instead of developing their own (to be fair, with slippi it is much faster to develop these days)
The funniest thing other than leffen getting his ass handed to him by aMSa, is that he got destroyed by someone who trained melee while having a full time job.
Thank goodness for people like aMSa who are so good at their unconventional characters that they single-handedly change the meta of this 2 decade-old game

Been an amsa fan for years glad he’s finally getting the attention he deserves. What’s fuckin dumb is people spouting bs about how yoshi was secretly top tier. No. Idk if it’s just a meme but if it isn’t: a good ass player whooped your ass with skill and you don’t know the match up because you and every one else are too busy tier whoring to know any matchups that aren’t A tier or higher.

Hey guys I really think we need a jump limit on Yoshi. The super armor he gets from just pressing jump is too strong, I cant win against it and I dont want to get any better. If the rules dont change I wont be competing in melee next year.
Amsa who has grinded for years finally getting wins and positive recognition. I admit I'm not the biggest fan of him... I sort of wrote him off as that guy who was good at yoshi who would play well but be a middle of the pack andy. But he's shown up this year. I got to give him props. I hate it when someone plays a character outside the Marth/Falco/Fox meta and performs well suddenly people wanna call the character a tier 0 or limit its abilities that the person playing has had to optimize to play against top tiers. They aren't broken! Other people are just too focused on the top they can't see the threats from the bottom.
You are being reductive. Its like saying a volkswagen beetle is not fast because not enough people drive them Like I read somewhere, Yoshi has a high skill ceiling. What that means is that when you play to his strengths you can qualify for competitive setplay There are few people who are making too 8's with Yoshi because they are not confident in his kit. If AMSa's success was random, then you could attribute it to luck or riding the wave, but because he is consistent with the handling of the character you must put respect on Yoshi What people like you like to do is gather all of your favorite toys and play army with them. You are conditioned by dominant strategy to bet on the merits that reflect your likeness. In other words, that which is most like you should win, that which is confusing to you should lose In this case you fail to appreciate that their are levels to chess. Characters that have a set skill floor are consistently facing each other. Sometimes Marth is on top, sometime its Sheik, sometimes its Peach, and sometimes Puff By your own rhetoric, only the players make them good. What I'm saying is that because they are always in a round round robin as the proving ground, the value of those choices is variable. Its NOT always Marth or C Falcon, but they have been proven as success because of how _their_ kit is embellished by the meta For that reason you get players who are predisposed to certain habits because they believe that rote memorization is the path to proving themselves. I just wonder how your argument stands when aMSa is essentially proving the character through both hard work and talent
your life is something! you serve select purposes! you should acknowledge yourself now! and continue sharing oxygen that continues to be generated in this blue trapped bubble, because who really knows what we're here for? be aware of yourself. i mean that with a 100%. with a 1000%
With all of the crap he's done I'm also surprised he's allowed to compete. I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt considering he was inactive for some time, but he hasn't really shown that he's worked on himself. He's just the way he was (even if he says otherwise), which is sad to see.
@@WolvesBaseballNine This video puts everything together much better than I ever could: th-cam.com/video/xU6HkfjkmzI/w-d-xo.html It's a little long, but covers most of why Leffen gets "all the hate".
amsa just knows what foxes want to do with him, so hes prepared for the hit- takes it and turns it around. he just powers through fox's immense pressure at the right time with super armour and trades and since he knows where and when to trade with fox because he chooses the stronger option than fox it just works and seems impossible to get through. especially a guy like leffen since he thinks he knows the match-up but he just doesnt know amsa and thats his weakness here ( plus his ego/overconfidence is in his way) ima get alot of flack for this but leffen USED to be one of my favorites because he was the antagonist. sure he was way too toxic and cocky but back then atleast he could show for it. nowadays im disappointed in him making all sorts of excuses and trying to wiggle his way out of a tough beating... i know he was never the man to just take the L respectfully and go on but this has just gotting pathetic tbh... im sorry Leff former big fan here but you done messed up.. -AGAIN and -AGAIN.. i dont think you have a redemption arc in the nearby future unless you man up and just admit people (especially Amsa) have just outplayed you fair and square. i mean cmon you used to play Yoshi you should know the potential in the character if played optimal his skillceiling is HUGE of all the people you should know that. just give credit where credit is due and praise amsa for making a mid-tier character look godlike because thats what real MEN do. pay your respects and hopefully ( maybe) the community is forgiving enough to tolerate you again, because as it stand your the jester-pissingpole-disgrace of the community. when mango and hbox collab on a roast you know youve done fucked up
I’ll never understand the pearls cast before swine mentality. A person who demonstrably proves their own lack of empathy through consistent actions doesn’t deserve the benefit of the doubt. That’s just prolonging bad behavior. Melee has a great competitive history, but geez. It’s like battered wife Stockholm syndrome or something.
I ain't ever liked Leffen, combination of massive shit-talker and unbelievably thin skin. Top 10 talent with the competitive drive of a spoiled child. What a fucking waste.

Amsa who has grinded for years finally getting wins and positive recognition. I admit I'm not the biggest fan of him... I sort of wrote him off as that guy who was good at yoshi who would play well but be a middle of the pack andy. But he's shown up this year. I got to give him props.
I hate it when someone plays a character outside the Marth/Falco/Fox meta and performs well suddenly people wanna call the character a tier 0 or limit its abilities that the person playing has had to optimize to play against top tiers. They aren't broken! Other people are just too focused on the top they can't see the threats from the bottom.
Is leffen gonna complain about Yoshi down smash now? Lmao.
Who would win?
-The best character in the entire game?
*OR*
-A tax dodging dinosaur?
Babe wake up, Leffen lost
Literally the reason I clicked on this video
I remember when "Ice" said, there will never be a yoshi player who can beat him, no matter how good this yoshi is. Bc yoshi is bottom tier
We need to nerf/limit every character except for Fox
Ain't nobody been this scared of dinosaurs since the first jurassic park
The story of leffen getting 3-0'd continues. All is right with the world :)
Amsa taking out the trash 😂 always nice to see amsa play
Yoshi is not top 5. Amsa is top 5. You don't see any other Yoshis making grand finals for a reason
You are being reductive. Its like saying a volkswagen beetle is not fast because not enough people drive them
Like I read somewhere, Yoshi has a high skill ceiling. What that means is that when you play to his strengths you can qualify for competitive setplay
There are few people who are making too 8's with Yoshi because they are not confident in his kit. If AMSa's success was random, then you could attribute it to luck or riding the wave, but because he is consistent with the handling of the character you must put respect on Yoshi
What people like you like to do is gather all of your favorite toys and play army with them. You are conditioned by dominant strategy to bet on the merits that reflect your likeness. In other words, that which is most like you should win, that which is confusing to you should lose
In this case you fail to appreciate that their are levels to chess. Characters that have a set skill floor are consistently facing each other. Sometimes Marth is on top, sometime its Sheik, sometimes its Peach, and sometimes Puff
By your own rhetoric, only the players make them good. What I'm saying is that because they are always in a round round robin as the proving ground, the value of those choices is variable. Its NOT always Marth or C Falcon, but they have been proven as success because of how _their_ kit is embellished by the meta
For that reason you get players who are predisposed to certain habits because they believe that rote memorization is the path to proving themselves. I just wonder how your argument stands when aMSa is essentially proving the character through both hard work and talent
@@ramblincapuchin9075 nah, it's more like "this car is bad but this dude can do insane drift with it"
@@ramblincapuchin9075 i don't usually say this but...
ratio.
puf lol
Okay, you don't see other puffs making grand finals either. Like I don't think Yoshi is a top 5 character, but this is a weak argument.
Knowing Leffen he probably went and made a tier list after this saying Puff was the only character stronger than Yoshi.
excuse me did he parry a shine at 2:32?
Yep
its funny how they both look like the character they play . and foxes rude overconfident jerkiness/ arrogance is leffens personalty too
When not even the meta tier chars can save you hahaa
Not even that, but the _top-tier_ in the game, commonly ranked at SS lmao
I love how aMSa stayed to chat for a bit afterward and Leffen just sulked on by. Truly a microcosm for both of their personalities
Amsa so good. So much fun to watch
Something so great about watching Lefen get annihilated.
“We should have an Up-air limit. Yoshi and Pikachu use theirs too much.”
I love how leffen is whining in the most calm way possible, he’s clearly hiding his true feelings.
If this was 2014 era, leffen would be nuking his controller on the floor after a set like this
A new demi-god is born... The Mid Tier god
your life is something! you serve select purposes! you should acknowledge yourself now! and continue sharing oxygen that continues to be generated in this blue trapped bubble, because who really knows what we're here for? be aware of yourself. i mean that with a 100%. with a 1000%

aMSa is totally the mid-tier god. I'm stealing this.
aMSa should play SF3 at this point. Bro would put literally every legend in a chokehold.
4:07 That smash DI to get out of drill and ASI a forward smash is too good
Leffen's next video: "Is Yoshi-Fox 60/40?"
That’s what he gets
Hater

Are they still letting Leff compete? Melee is so sick lol
With all of the crap he's done I'm also surprised he's allowed to compete. I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt considering he was inactive for some time, but he hasn't really shown that he's worked on himself. He's just the way he was (even if he says otherwise), which is sad to see.
Besides just being a bitch, has he done anything worthy of being banned?
@@usainwult2414 Why all the hate for Leff?
@@WolvesBaseballNine He's a lying piece of shit that gets away with pretty much any awful shit he's said because he's very skilled at the game.
@@WolvesBaseballNine This video puts everything together much better than I ever could: th-cam.com/video/xU6HkfjkmzI/w-d-xo.html
It's a little long, but covers most of why Leffen gets "all the hate".
Few pleasures in life as perfect as watching Leffen get 3-0'd.
Lmao Lef got his rep as a Yoshi player making upsets, now cries about Yoshi
“aMSa post-timeskip” LOOOL
6:22 FTX 😭😂
Just realized Leffen has an FTX logo on his jersey since he’s on TSM 💀 bad timing
the gameplay footage is so laggy I miss 5 moves because of a random cut out frame.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t leffen start as a Yoshi main?
What about a fox shine limit??
Armor limit
When one man is the meta
I would sub and watch a channel entirely dedicated to showing Leffin fails
Same
Watching Leffen take an L always feels good. Knowing it comes from Amsa makes it feel great
“yeah honestly fox is the worst top tier, yoshi’s super armor and egg easily give him the top spot”
- Leffen, 5 minutes after getting 3-0’d by a Yoshi
AMSA took Agatha's advice and applied it to smash.
W-A-S-H-E-D
Leffen is free💯
You need huge eggs to play Yoshi
amsa just knows what foxes want to do with him, so hes prepared for the hit- takes it and turns it around. he just powers through fox's immense pressure at the right time with super armour and trades and since he knows where and when to trade with fox because he chooses the stronger option than fox it just works and seems impossible to get through. especially a guy like leffen since he thinks he knows the match-up but he just doesnt know amsa and thats his weakness here ( plus his ego/overconfidence is in his way) ima get alot of flack for this but leffen USED to be one of my favorites because he was the antagonist. sure he was way too toxic and cocky but back then atleast he could show for it. nowadays im disappointed in him making all sorts of excuses and trying to wiggle his way out of a tough beating... i know he was never the man to just take the L respectfully and go on but this has just gotting pathetic tbh... im sorry Leff former big fan here but you done messed up.. -AGAIN and -AGAIN.. i dont think you have a redemption arc in the nearby future unless you man up and just admit people (especially Amsa) have just outplayed you fair and square. i mean cmon you used to play Yoshi you should know the potential in the character if played optimal his skillceiling is HUGE of all the people you should know that. just give credit where credit is due and praise amsa for making a mid-tier character look godlike because thats what real MEN do. pay your respects and hopefully ( maybe) the community is forgiving enough to tolerate you again, because as it stand your the jester-pissingpole-disgrace of the community. when mango and hbox collab on a roast you know youve done fucked up
Bro I don’t think leffen is going to read this lmao
@@plannedtuna8293 i know its just a rant for others to read, like u did :) maaaybe if this gets enough likes but most unlikely yes
Leffens a man child, so sadly I doubt he will acknowledge someone better than him cause his fragile ego won’t let him.
I’ll never understand the pearls cast before swine mentality. A person who demonstrably proves their own lack of empathy through consistent actions doesn’t deserve the benefit of the doubt. That’s just prolonging bad behavior.
Melee has a great competitive history, but geez. It’s like battered wife Stockholm syndrome or something.
I ain't ever liked Leffen, combination of massive shit-talker and unbelievably thin skin. Top 10 talent with the competitive drive of a spoiled child. What a fucking waste.
So why is leffen playing with controller after shilling for that other pad so much?
