#Melee #SmashBros #Hugs86 - บันเทิง
For those asking for a link to the match, it’s on the VODs at twitch.tv/WatchUntilTheEndOfTheVideo
The link doesn't work. What twitch channel was this streamed on?
A "Link"
Wow this professional boxer sure knows a lot about Melee
As an oldddd-school Link main who used to always preach the Gospel about the likes of Germ, Lord HDL, and Skler in the earlier years and SAUS, J666, and Sixxx in the more recents years, it has been an absolute treat to witness Aklo carry the mantle when he feels compelled to do so!
I feel like back in the day all the kids who went on to be good at the game (or at least better than their friend group/area of town/whatever) used to main link and Samus in 64/melee. I've seen it happen with so many people, myself included lol.
I forgot who said it but regarding saus, once he switched to Falco, I never seen or heard from him again...🙁
Same bro. Been a Link player since OG Smash 64. I’m so proud 😢
hmm
Also don't forget the legendary Savestate!
Amazing run by Aklo and one of the hypest moments in Melee history, second only to the Samus player who won Dreamhack Dallas 2019
"Second only"
Amsa and axe winning their majors lol?
@@freddiesimmons1394 I can't wooosh hard enough...
@@chrisb8698 I am famously bad with sarcasm
2:00 sick use of links actual shield
I looked for this comment.
BRO IT HAD MY JAW ON THE FLOOR
~ 12:05 is what I love about good Links. “He just starts doing weird shit” tbh I feel like doing weird shit with Link is basically just optimal gameplay atp 😂
This is great commentary for someone like me who knows entry level melee stuff but doesn’t know anything beyond that. Gives the play by play of each move and it’s so easy to understand
The mid to mid low tier Era is finally upon us
As a life-long link main, fuck yes dude. Bombs, as well as projectiles in general are what makes you. They're your in to set up real combos. This is absolutely king shit. Lovely to see
as a Link believer since forever, this is so sick. feels like a long redemption road for Skler that had to drop out at pound 3 after doing so well. Germ for doing so well for so long. Lord HDL, all those. RedX is the only other one right now I'd consider for the future of Link
but the revolution is coming
Watching a Marth get destroyed by a Link is always a happy sight to me
It wasn't all Link, but Link WON the tournament for him
One of the scrolling comments talked about how Aklo’s Link lost to aMSa. I think everyone had hope in their heart for it until aMSa armored through a point blank up-b.
First melee content creator in YEARS I’ve enjoyed. Shoutout to Hugs
Wow, for real?
@@jestfullgremblim8002 not named “mango” or “Toph”? Absolutely. Hard to engage with a lot of other people I’ve found. Not a dig against em, but hugs got a different vibe
One of my favourite things about link is that he's probably the most creative character in my opinion. He may not have amazing tools on their own, but your job as a link player is to use bomb, tech, and yhur brain to overcome the terrible movement and mostly mid toolset. He can't spam like other characters, arrow... isn't amazing, but his boomerang covers so much area and has so much potential, plus bomb is, imo, the second strongest thing in the game besides shine. It forces people to play according to how you want them to, which is just so nice. Link isn't busted, but he's not low-tier, people just need to be smart about how to play him
Yo I was saying in chat that this is the peak of Link play since Mang0 beat Kage with Link.
Ladies and gents The hero of TIME!!!!!
Damn, Amsas winning majors and now there's a link tearing it up? 2020s melee is all about the mid tiers
This new year celebration must have been dope/amazing af.
that set was so sick i caught it live
"a skilled link could beat any marth"
Nah people think the bomb redirect with the boomerang is crazy, but if you look, the boomerang on the up-b after that sets up the nastiest DI mixup
this was a great video, thanks for not beating me up Hugs!
14:23 IBDW is from Rochester NY
Biggest brain Link I've ever seen.
2023 and hugs still uploading in 720p
Hugs made me have a stroke with the fighting game theory lmao.
You'd be surprised how often the Walmart down air hits
link mains , alts , pockets RISE UP!
@6:05 great analysis
Where can I watch this set?
That was incredible
thumbnail got the instant like from me
Bro the thumbnail 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Excellent video Hugs
another link by the player hi#918 is probably one of the best links ive ever played too, i wish aklo and him would ditto
Link almost plays like smash ultimate snake lol
Perfect thumbnail
hugs my man you have some solid commentary
This is so awesome! It's always bugged me that nobody really respects Link in any smash title. He is the most opportunistic character on the roster. If you know what your projectiles will do before the opponent does, you can do some NASTY stuff with him
damn that's bussin frfr on god 💯
Fuck yeah, carry the torch Aklo.
I thought your tweet about this thumbnail title combo was a joke LOL
Doing what it takes to succeed babeh
I meann y'all socal Boyz came here and lost LOLL
Aklo thinking about his pick before Set 2 Game 5 was just pure hype. I couldn't even imagine
looks like he aliveass won it to me
Dope video
aklo gonna be number 1 in 2 years MARK MY WORDS
3:03 my sister alwaaaaays did that with Link
No shot
Also Hugs, a Link can beat Fox and Falco. Fox is tough, and you’re right with Sheik (imo worst matchup), but you forgot Falcon. That is probably #2
Can, yes, but it's a brutal, fucked up matchup.
Most everything is fkd for Link haha
I'd group Falcon with Fox/Falco IMO; he's more oppressive with aerial approaches thanks to uair/nair, but he's also lacking shine so he has to do some honest work in order to win. Fox is likely the worst of the three thanks to shine trumping Link's recovery in a lot of scenarios.
hugs gaming
is this a major
This video is clickbait, I was there when hugs said this. That said it's still fire. Well done Hugo.
The link from NYC
uh yikes.... only Mango, S2J, Lucky, and Westballz can rock the socal tag.... just yikes Kodorin..... you weren't invited lol
Hey this Aklo guy is pretty good.
So .. the roster would be more varied if it wasnt for Fox and Falco
Anyone recognize ultimate's style of gameplay in link?
The most noob move is Kirby down b and up b hands down link down air is top 3 tho
Kirby nB jump off stage?
fr
Hugs Link is the best character in the game don't be suprised
Bro wtf I never see KoDoRiN winning PFFT
Can you edit the thumbnail to make it yankee with no brim
algorithm
I always like hugs But i just click on videos if my algorithm shows
yee
How does Captain Falcon hold up against Link?
Also, Hugs, don't forget that you can play stuff in slo-mo.
Link is combo food for falcon. He fucks him up bad.
When given the advantage, C Falcs very oppressive and rush down types are terrible for Link due to how much he relies on pulling a bomb.
However, I will say that commonly, Captain Falcons generally considered as "Low Tiers favorite high tier" due to how easily abusable he is too. He doesn't have range like Marth or Sheik and isn't as oppressive as the spacies can be.
And no one matches Jiggs in anything.
Due to his extremely abusable recovery for the lower tier cast as well as the need to be rather close up, he is one of the preferred match ups if you had to pick a high tier to fight against with your own low tier.
Falcon destroys Link
Nothing against Kodorin but his Marth seems okay to me! I wonder how Zain would do against Aklo's Link! There's moment Kodorin plays godlike then there's other moments where the decisions are very questionable
Big house 11
Give link AN NYC SKIN IMMEDIATELY
Quite a response, don't you think?
Agreed!
I feel like this was kind of a chump check for Kodorin but I still want Aklo to solo link with every fiber of my being
Edit: Just to clarify this is not to say Aklo didn't play fucking amazingly, dude is goated that's why I want him to solo Link. It's just he has to work SO much harder for wins than with his Fox
Aklo is the coolest fox player for this. Mang0 take notes.
what exactly do you want Mango to learn from this?
how to be cool
no shade to mang0 in particular just all fox players that people mistake for cool, Mang0 being a classic example
@@aunthemod playing link is what makes Aklo cool? I'm not sure what you're trying to convey at ALL.

@@sareaper69 😂😂 smooth asf
someone link the tournament this boomer cant figure out how
"Link cannot exist as a main". I main Link lol. Have we also forgotten how a Kirby reached 9th place at a major years ago against some of the top of the top players like Mew2King for example? Fuck tier lists lol
The waffle house has found its new host
The Link mains are gonna be extra deslusional lol as if Kodorin practices vs Link. He was making adaptations too with PSing, then Aklo had to be more aggressive towards the end and mix him up. We need to see more Link players so we can learn how to fight them better, ppl were smack talking Kodorin, but all things considered he did VERY well for having to make on-the-fly adjustments on this weird ass MU, especially from losers.
