i saw some trans emotes in the twitch chat clips, so looked into you more and was kinda suprised to see you are trans. being a trans person myself im really jealous of how great you look, and obvi your performance in smash, it inspires me to work at my own comp game, and improve (tf2 is that game)
It's funny the hugs vs magi salt, hugs was actually pretty famous for never losing to falco players for the longest time, even made ppmd switch to marth in at least one set I remember.
Dude this is SO funny I had no idea about this story. The first time I met Malachi at a tourney he rekt my falco high as shit and we both had a laugh about it. One of the nicest people in the scene, love that guy.
I'm not even that big into melee and after finding your latest video on DK, I think I've found a new favorite channel to chill out with. You're very good at documentary editing, and I can tell from the responses you get during your interviews with figures from the stories that you're good at asking the right questions about a given subject. Great work.
A most radical algorithm moment. What an incredible turn of events. Melee can really be the coolest, it's like the two pushed themselves into discovering new ways to play against one another. Respect for both of the players for doing this, even if it was born of salt.
thank you for always shedding light on less talked about but still fascinating parts of Melee and for getting me as hyped about them as you are love your content man, keep it up
can i just say, your kinetic typography editing style is both silly and golden. keeps the viewer super interested during the parts where there's not as much video to show ^^ this video is incredible and made me super passionate about this set i never heard of, massive props for elevating it to this level!! EDIT: I WAS 1/3 OF THE WAY THROUGH THIS VIDEO WHEN I MADE THE COMMENT, I DIDN'T REALIZE IT WOULD GET SO INSANE
Great music editing in this video. It stands out from some other melee video essay i watched recently with more views where the game music was clashing at the same volume as the added background music. I like that you take care to have the audio be great. The video also looked and flowed great as well :)
Thank you! I've tried to use some eq and noise gating in this one to reduce some of that. It's not all quite where I'd like it, but I'm no professional with this stuff.
Fantastic video as someone who only saw the match after it happerned I never understood what it meant to the community. You made a great video man, its crazy how many sleepers like you are out their creating amazing melee content. Keep up the good work I'm looking forward to more content.
MoG saying he likes people getting annoyed with his playstyle but then says '' you ruined the amount of fun that I could've have '' is actually golden , he talks like he cannot take a L at all
Yeah. That was part of why Mvlvchi was going by Messenger of God (which is what the name Malachi means in English) . He didn't want to make things more confusing.
hearing jerma in a wusstunes video? more likely than you'd expect. another absolute banger of a video, hope you get some more eyes on your stuff soon. you're really producing top echelon melee content atm
Great video and storytelling, and a great reminder to put ego aside after unplugging the controller. Lol at the ending scene of fucking Hugs still reminding everyone he was Dreamhacks Dallas 2019 champion 😂
Critique.... don't tell us the outcome before it's shown on screen. When you edit Magi saying that she wins 5-3 it kinda ruins the suspense for a viewer that doesn't know the outcome.
This was the comment I was looking for!!! I loved the music in this too, especially that hyperpop rock song that played during the runback of the runback of the runback. Update: It's from No More Heroes 2?! Gotta play that soon, what a bop
I agree with Armada-the Peach vs Falco matchup is in Falco's favor. The only weakness Falco has is his recovery-but everyone acknowledges that a good Falco will win neutral and not to mention he can edge guard her decently too. This means Peaches will pretty much always have to pray they win the mixup game and then have flawless punish/edgeguards-just cause lasers can be avoided by certain float heights simply means very little-Peach has a very predictable trajectory of approach once she's floated over the laser. Falco just turns around and uptilts-or he can literally just back up and keep lasering to force her overcommit.
Peach invalidates Falco's lasers, immediately invalidating his greatest keepaway option. Even if the float means predictable mixup from Falco, he still has to approach Peach, giving her the opportunity to hit him. He has to play her game. Peach has the edge guard on point for Falco too. The advantage he has is very slight considering how vulnerable he is compared to Fox
wooo let's go magi
@SSBMagi you're going to be the best falco in the world in a couple years I'm calling it here 😇 youre sooooo clean
magi is so cool wow
What with all that running back, your calves must be fantastic.
wooo magi

That's wild because Falco destroys Samus
Morsecode may change this
When i started hrt i feel like i lost my ability to be angry, so i have mad respect to magi for never losing her hater energy
Nooooooo I wanna keep my hatred for my enemiiiiiies
funny, i would think you'd gain the ability ten fold since yk ,,Women am i right
@@fujster comedy
i've been on hrt for nearly 3 years and i don't think i've experienced anything like that
I developed everlasting hatred in my soul idk maybe your estrogen from a different manufacturer
okay fairly unrelated but Brandon's "what kind of bird is Falco? I forgot" when his name is literally FALCO was so unprompted and hilarious
He’s a quail
He's actually a pheasant, not a falcon
He ain't no quail he is a pheasant
I think falcos a blue jay
Falco is a Italian name
Dude this is SO funny I had no idea about this story. The first time I met Malachi at a tourney he rekt my falco high as shit and we both had a laugh about it. One of the nicest people in the scene, love that guy.
❤
Malachi really is such a nice guy.
these two players embody all the stereotypes of their characters, watching them fight each other is so funny
“in order to understand x, we need to talk about y” always makes me watch for rolling rocks
i love the moments when magi is talking very serious and then goes full ballistic shitter mode and shits on mvlvchi

You're very good at documentary editing, and I can tell from the responses you get during your interviews with figures from the stories that you're good at asking the right questions about a given subject.

Magi and Mog may respect each other, but the real question is: Do they respect their elders?
Maybe th-cam.com/video/n9yK9wOVe8Y/w-d-xo.html
This is exactly why smash as a whole is my favorite spectator sport
I wholeheartedly agree with this
A most radical algorithm moment. What an incredible turn of events.

love your content man, keep it up
your video editing is so dope, very glad the TH-cam algo sent me your way
i had no idea about any of this and im sooo glad you made this video about it! it was great and your channel is awesome!
Magi’s Falco can frickin move
Your essays are always at a consistently high quality, hope you get more recognition :)

"What kind of a bird is Falco?" uhh a falcon?
Fantastic video as someone who only saw the match after it happerned I never understood what it meant to the community. You made a great video man, its crazy how many sleepers like you are out their creating amazing melee content. Keep up the good work I'm looking forward to more content.
The "bitter-suite" did it for me 😂
I just discovered your channel with the DK video and I cant express how great your videos are.
This turned out to be such a wholesome video
The ending is so sweet, honestly what a fantastic video ❤️💕
babe wake up, new wusstunes video
this is what i call the magi rage factor
we love to see it
Great vid. A great example of a melee story that went untold until now
MoG saying he likes people getting annoyed with his playstyle but then says '' you ruined the amount of fun that I could've have '' is actually golden , he talks like he cannot take a L at all
Yeah wtf is that about
"perhaps the final tournament victory of his career" damn really doing hugs dirty here lmfao
I mean ... He won an online chess tournament in 2021 but he's kind of done with melee
I have wanted a combo video to philistine for approximately 7 years
funny that there are 2 peach mains named malachi, one for melee and one for PM. well, not anymore i guess but funny that it was that way for a bit.
Yeah. That was part of why Mvlvchi was going by Messenger of God (which is what the name Malachi means in English) . He didn't want to make things more confusing.
hearing jerma in a wusstunes video? more likely than you'd expect.

Top notch editing. Vert good build-up of suspense for some of those matches
That story and your video were amazing ! Keep up the good work and thanks a lot
Super fun vid. Love to see people make great content like this for melee!
13:41 hmmm I wonder what kind of bird FALCO could be
pheasant
I love how it's implied that Magi is the heroine of the story
The montages for the sets were dope with the music you used, Subbed!
beautiful music choice, cant wait to see more from you!
Great video and storytelling, and a great reminder to put ego aside after unplugging the controller. Lol at the ending scene of fucking Hugs still reminding everyone he was Dreamhacks Dallas 2019 champion 😂

15:56 lmfaoooo she made me cackle here
Falco can completely wall out floaties with lazer, but spamming lasers as falco is considered a sin against god
W melee video essay this ones going up there with "there will never be another player like hungrybox"
Incredible video. Thank you to everyone involved in its creation!
This was well done. Great job.
great vid man keep up the great work
Was I the only person who got faked out into thinking about Chillin vs Leffen?
12:42 “What kind of bird is Falco? I forgot.”
It’s literally in his name 😭
big fan of the nmh2 soundtrack pull during the highlight reel
1:24 not surprise this guy gets off his opponents salt, he flips the bird midset
I'm ngl I pop off a little every time I see a new wusstunes upload
"Bros", homies, buddies, at the end. That's the best part!
I need ALL of the music in this video ASAP
its in the desccription
This was the comment I was looking for!!! I loved the music in this too, especially that hyperpop rock song that played during the runback of the runback of the runback.
Update: It's from No More Heroes 2?! Gotta play that soon, what a bop
The Mang0 vs Taj clip from genesis 2 has age very funnily considering what happened at genesis 9
16:34
Dqmn! What song is that!?
philistine from no more heroes 2 (jp version)
This an amazing video, thank you for telling this story
based magi. every degenerate gambler knows you always offer worse odds for yourself in order to secure a rematch. power move
Randomly mentioning that he’s the messenger of god at the end sent me
24:20 Magi has no chill
you did a great job getting me invested into this beef, i was straight up going to unsubscribe if magi lost
I'll be sure to manipulate the truth so things end favorably for you in the future
23:20 your edit has a few seconds of black screen no audio
My b
@@wusstunes Wasn't on purpose?
@@LightKnight_Age_Of think it's the result of some last minute shuffling with clips
@@wusstunes It did work, though. It's like a teasing for the conclusion of the game.
@@LightKnight_Age_Of oh ok it was on purpose then
huge win for women
women stay wimming
Women are god
Yall i love women so much
Woman
If you are transphobic just leave. Play another game because your not welcome. bye 👋
Whos the person on 1 frame at 8:26?? Im on mobile and can’t see it please it’s killing me
Nofluxes 💀
Damn Hugs is short
wow i keep getting recommended your videos and as soon as i hear that goofy ahh midwest accent i know it's gonna be a good one, awesome video!
What a great watch!
The editing is so cool holy
waff saying he doesnt know what kind of bird falco is hurt me internally
Actually I've been investigating this question and it's more complicated than you would think 🤔
Smash bros history is so fun to learn.
whats the somg at 18:30
This is such a banger
great video! will say, it seems a bit overedited, still loved it
He needed to activate if it is high stakes. Makes sense
this was such a good video thank you for this
This video could’ve been 12 hours long and i still would’ve said P vs Shroom is better

damn wtf this video was awesome
Just watching it made me salty. So good video honestly
8:26 So what’s all this then?
whats the song in the last runback
yo, whats the song at 16:36?
Philistine from no more heroes 2 (Japanese version)
sick video
let’s go magi
He tried to get in her head by cancelling it
Phenomenal video
Very good video!
Melee needs more salty suites
"what kind of bird is falco, i forgot"
um, a falcon? its just one letter away
i was planning a full length video on this topic bc its moer complicated that you think
He looks way more like a song bird than a falcon
Song at 16:30?
philistine (jp version) - no more heroes 2
good job magi
mog gained a fan from this
Oh hey mvlvchi goes to my locals, lets go RVA
fantastic video, although the music choices near the end were a little heavy on the ears
Enjoying the shower of charisma and charm whenever Magi is on screen 😌 ✨
what th heck is that pic of at 8:26 LOL
another outstanding video 👏 👏 👏
whats the song at 20:02 its SOO good
Philistine from no more heroes 2
Wow that's so cool I love women so much and also playing as falco in super smash brothers melee on the gamecube
