I think the best part of all this drama is that now instead of getting two massive world finals at the end of the year we get none because world tour was canceled and everyone is boycotting the panda cup. Good job Allen. Two birds with one stone.
This is just the best case for Nintendo who formerly didn't want any Smash events. If that is still their MO, they succeeded.
and if Nintendo continues not giving access to BTS or anyone else that people would show up to, that'd completely kill the scene. Most likely scenario honestly. RIP
We don't know if Panda did anything. They had some unscrupulous dealing with tournaments (namely his comments), but the shut down was Nintendo. Honestly, I think VGBC had sour grapes and Smash fans needed a boogie man.
@@smashmonkey6304 Panda specifically didn't do anything. The CEO of Panda, was the one that ruined it for everyone.
Two birds... if one of the birds was actually his own foot that the rock just fell onto. I hope it hurt. A lot.
Nintendo really went and gaslit everyone
"You can't run without a license. We aren't giving you a license. But if you cancel its your own fault." like wtf
It’s a very Japanese thing to do a request is not a request.
The Nintendo we loved died with Iwata.
@@RobotMasterSplash wtf
fr wtf
Yaaass nintendo gaslight gatekeep girlboss 😏💋❤💅💅💅
“I decided to run it on December 18th, hopefully there are no other events running on that day because they might collide in viewership…” absolutely SAVAGE 😂😂😂 Well played Lud 👍🏻
My bday :c
I didn't even catch that! On the day of the Panda Cup?
@@stickyrubb happy early birthday
@@ryansmith2903also the world cup final
@@munschirl Thanks so much! 29 years, almost there, haha
Thanks for all your support in the Smash scene, Ludwig 🙏
If Ludwin adds 8 more players I SO HOPE YOU ARE INVITED.
@@PeruvianWall Got my vote~
@@PeruvianWall - How can you be watching Ludwig and write his name wrong multiple times in the comments?
@@SnorrioK he's not writing his name wrong, he's just been watching longer and clings on to a different memeory of our streamer Mogul Mail. Old Frog out
Bruh, Ludwig is another person, he's Mogul Mail
the way that panda has treated this situation is absolutely ridiculous. they literally admitted to harassing BTS
@@imsacred7391 Dawg you don't needa tell them, just like and move on
@@didgeridooo Pretty sure all three are bots. I've seen this line of replies several times at this point.
i keep thinking people mean BTS the kpop group :(
BTS the kpop group?
@@Sakura9etal no, beyond the summit, an esports event coordinator
Absolute power move with the tournament Ludwin is hosting, it'd be a shame if other tournament loses views
theres another tourney on that date?
@@TheMohanned94 yea the panda cup
@@Lucas-hj6yy the what ?
@@Lucas-hj6yy hm never heard of it, sounds like a shitty alternative to Mogul Mail’s
@@Lucas-hj6yywhat’s that? Sounds dumb
Ludwig and QT are doing there damndest to set an example for what streamers should be like, making great content, but most importantly helping others and caring enough about other creators to want to make content for them.
Maybe this is a dumb idea but have Charlie stream the event on Twitch just to ensure your tourney is available on both major streaming platforms
Ooh that's a great idea
The TH-cam stream is 100% free with zero ads. What exactly is stopping all smash fans to tune in and watch it straight from the person who organize the tournament and paid so much money for the entire thing?
Flying in everyone, getting the venue on short notice, putting in $50,000 in prizes, and then have another person stream the event is only a great idea if the other person shares half of the bill.
@@arkain1 tbf there are still a lot of moist fans that arent interested at all, him reacting to the event could bring a lot of attention that wouldnt be there at all
@@jaemisu but it wouldnt be close to worth even 10 percent of the cost of the event.
Not worth to have other people officially stream it unless they foot the bill, I agree with the person before you.
@@Pyxyty but isnt the whole point of the tourney to donate money meaning any amount of extra viewership would in theory be welcomed
Mogul Mail saving the scene once again, unlike Ludwig
Ok
Can y’all shut up about mogul mail. Like I only watch him because i always thought ludwig is good at delivering updates and mogul mail is the mediocre next best thing I guess. But he’s not all that and I’m tired of the ludwig slander!!
Edit: bruh
@@_aoe dude who hurt you
I HATE Ludwig he's so annoying
Mogul Mail is so much better
Dude, Mogul Mail killed ludwig, of course Ludwig is not going to save the scene
I'm not even in the Smash scene, but I'm down to support this.
Same, it may come the day most gaming events need to be licensed to avoid get sued no matter their size, genre or even if they are for charity. Support Lud's middle finger to Panda and Nintendo looks like a preventing measure.
me too. What could be easier than boycotting something I don't even watch. Finally, I'm an ally for something. lol nah but for real. I support the castration Dr. Alice the Ceo Formerly known as Dr Allen.
exactly I think more people are gana watch than ever before just because of everything that's happened.
Dude im with you. I dont understand the smash community and i think its pretty fuckin lame but this move is hilarious lmao
same
Ludwig setting up for the fattest dunk on Panda is actually nuts, and im all for it
Sakurai: "I just wanted to make people happy... "
*Peeks out of window and sees Ninjas in the trees*
Sakurai: "But all I can do now is watch in silence."
this is probably unfortunately accurate
So proud of the ex-panda crew for leaving and everyone boycotting their event
@Deadpool. damn it 2nd time ive been had
@@Alphuuubro these bots are everywhere…
@@apacheattackhelicopter5823 TH-cam is really slacking all around. Their bots are copyright striking the wrong people, not catching any user scam bots, and generally being scummy people. I’m sure they and Panda would get along. I can’t even watch TH-cam on my computer anymore for fear of catching viruses.
Burn the damn thing to the ground.
@@apacheattackhelicopter5823 why can these bots post links but not normal users??
"If Nintendo wants to send their ninjas after me, it will make for great content"
Ludwig is the best.
Ninjas? 🥷

@@n3o476 like daredevil oh I get it
Thank you ludwig. Melee would be so much worse off without your patronage, and seriously it means so much just to have someone who gives a damn help us out so consistently like you.
Our weeklies got permanently canceled mid-way through an event and one of the player elected to keep it going in his parent's garage.
It was 10PM on a Thursday but that did not stop his parents and brothers from helping turn the garage into an emergency local. A stranger helped us move CRTs with his truck
I don't play Melee anymore but I cherish a lot of these great memories and stories of passionate people helping each other in and outside of the game
I wish Nintendo saw the community the way I was fortunate enough to see it
Dude Ludwig is the GOAT, man's still giving back to his OG roots with the smash scene.
Do you know what GOAT means?
@@Tylerrrrrb greatest of all time Ludwig is the GOAT
what does Ludwig have to do with this? Mogul Mail is the GOAT
@@deepfriedxans7270 Ludwig is a nobody in the real world
@@Tylerrrrrb someone always manages to find negativity in good things
Lud is the type of millionaire I can respect. He throws around his cash in a very interesting way. He has money to use, so he uses it to help the communities close and important to him.
Yep. Remember him trying to make uncopywrited music. Like the Christmas songs, and him trying to hire orchestras for classical music. Just so streamers and small TH-camr can use them risk free.
Ludwig you legend. I know you love events but it’s just so refreshing to see a content creator starting events that are clearly labours of love. Hope no other events are happening on December 18th
Thank you again for covering the SWT ludwig. We need people like you to spread the word. You don't have to use your massive platform to cover this, but you are sticking to your roots and fighting for all of the thousands of people who have bled, sweated, and cried to make this community what it is.
We love you bro
If Nintendo threatens you behind the scene Ludwig, please carry on with the event and make them go "full mask off" to the community.
There's no way they're THAT stupid to try and pull the same gaslighting with Ludwig that they're doing with Smash Word Tour. They have to be mask off at this point. They're two-faced bullshit has already backfired about as badly as it could.
@@Xelief I agree, but both Nintendo and Panda Cup made public statements deflecting any accountability. At the point it's like "Do they expect the public to believe that SWT just threw away tens of thousands of dollars for nothing?" It's stupid.
Nintendo don't care and the causal Nintendo gamers don't hear about stuff like this. Ninty could sadly crush Lud and most TH-camrs not to mention us regular folks like a bug. There's no way we'll get to watch the whole stream.
@@MrStGeorgeIllawarra the ironic thing about this for Ludwig is that he has the finance to be able to take the hit from Nintendo, and he can just milk it and gain profit from it lmao.
@@MrStGeorgeIllawarra But if Nintendo further chases double down, it just brings the story to light about how Nintendo and Panda are corrupted
It’s ridiculous how messed up this whole situation is. I wonder how Nintendo and Panda expected this to go…
@leaked footage Don't click this unless you wanna learn how to air fry potatoes
Lowkey I’d actually be down to learn that
Of xourse they wanted to just swipethis under the rug lol. The thing is tho, that the thing they tried to swipe was way too big already, so it made a bump in the rug!
@@soysuperkabobyI just want you to know your likes aren’t bots, your comment was actually good
The way it will go. People will get over and forget this. Nintendo has been scummy for decades now. People will continue to love them.
Fun fact for 3:30! Vasectomies can’t always be reversed. The procedures success rate is fairly bad relative to a medical procedure, so be very careful before getting one in the first place. Also, the longer you go without reversing it the worse your odds are of a successful reversal procedure.
This might be the most admirable thing I've ever seen you do. Thanks so much for caring enough about the community to make something like this happen! Can't wait to tune in
bot
🤓
@beyond your imagination There are bots who do this too!
I'd not watched Ludwig before he hosted the invitational last month. I know the Smash Bros community isn't the largest there is (and even less on the competitive side), but I also know I can't be the only one that feels grateful for everything he's done to uplift the scene.
Also paying off people who lent money to a scammer
Mogul Mail really bout to blow out Panda Cup with his own last minute event. Still getting wins over Ludwig every video 👍
indeed. Also damn you got bots
This is blowing up faster than any other event I've seen this year. A solid win on the community's behalf, I can't wait to tune in. 200k views in the first three hours?!
tbh for my own reasons I try not to be the biggest ludwig fan and just watch the occasional video, but seeing you announce this tourney for the game I love, and remembering your roots and always being a proponent of the scene no matter how much success outside of smash you've gotten, literally puts a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye. Good shit Ludwig. Thanks for helping Melee live on.
Ludwig is really the eccentric millionaire character. He sees wrongs being done and uses his money to do right instead. I'm loving this ludwig arc, this is why you're my favorite person on this website
Who tf is "ludwig" this is mogul mail
Who's ludwig? Isn't he like irrelevant?
That's only good PR. That expences for him have a big return on image, so his morality can't be assesed by his actions. It doesn't mean he his evil and I think he generally tries the best he can without hurting his business to much, but don't idolize people in general but especially millionares.
@@Riccardo-kw5dc I get what you're trying to say but Ludwig easily could've said 'ah that sucks :(" and moved on. Instead he is here helping get VGBC some money back the same way he did with the people that got scammed by Sliker. Yes, it's a good PR move but nobody else is doing it and he's doing good for the community. Its fine to idolize someone like Ludwig compared to other streamers who only entertain and never really give back.
The more events Ludwig host the more I think TH-cam must have payed him multiple millions because these events are insane.
The Mr Beast of Smash
He did get multiple millions, it’s at least 2.5 mil (not per year, total) not including any personal sponsorships etc.
The man knows he can just shill a mobile game ad any time he wants and make 6 figures in a single video anyway. He knows he’s been fortunate so he gets to spend his money on things he cares about.
TH-cam ad revenue is known and not in the millions, but he's taking in healthy sponsorship and merch deals on the side that fill him out comfortably
@@BikePumpMusic we’re talking about the contract he signed with youtube, not ad revenue lmao
@@rogerzhang5993I heard it was 20 million for 2 years so 10 mil per year
I love u Ludwig more and more. You’ve also gotten me through final projects as I binge watch u
Scuffed World Tour is a genius idea, this feels like whenever a big sports league has their player association strike and go do something cool while team owners have to find scabs or shut down operations
Mogul Mail is actually LEGENDARY for doing this impromptu tournament. If Nintendo shuts him down, then it would be clear that Nintendo did indeed shut down SWT, and they won’t be able to hide behind bullshit reasoning for PR.
Such a mogul move, and it's for the community too!
That's a 4D Chess Move right there. Nintendo can't shut down Scuffed World Tour event, without directly contradicting their own public statements. Either they let Panda lose most of their views, or they prove they're lying. Well played.
I will 100% support your event in any way that I can. Not the biggest smash live watcher, but will drop everything to tune in. Thanks for doing this Lud!
You’re very compassionate. Thank you for your continual support for the community and game that means a lot to so many ppl.
The biggest thing that stands out to me about this is how much Nintendo is standing with Panda. It seems like they know that people were concerned that Alan somehow coerced their decision because their statement addressed it, so surely they should know that he was using his "connection" with Nintendo to threaten other companies. So why on earth are they still working with him? That is crazy. I really hope all of Alan's endeavors crash and burn.
bootlickers unite
Can we talk about how smart Ludwig is with promoting his content. He releases the stream notification, then he posts a vid to watch while you wait for stream… Genius
Ok
Who’s ludwig?
Bruh hes openly talked about it and explained it multiple times
@@cublics3810 I don't know I think they are talking about the Mogul Mail copycat.
@@diger17 he must be convincing to some if some people are confusing the ever-wicked ludwig with the illustrious mogul mail
Love to see another mogul mail! Please keep up with the recent upload schedule of these mogul mails!!
me who never was into melee that much but 100% gonna turn up to that event just to show my support for the community, together we stand strong.
I've literally never played this game in my entire life. Yet I have Strong Opinions
What are your strong opinions?
@@ghosthunter0950 He just wanted to let you know that he had some. Good man, he is.
Same, and I disagree on some points, while I agree on the others.
This is literally "Gamers unite" moment. Fuck Panda.
I, too, hold strong opinions against Nintendo. Absolutely not gonna get any more money from me... thier shit boring and repetitive now anyways 😴
I absolutely love that Ludwig was like, "I'll do it myself" it is absolutely wonderful
Doing the scuff tournament is such a sweet thing to do, and lowkey hearing of that made me get emotional and Im nothing more than a spectator in the scene
You're such a fucking great guy Lud, thank you so much for still looking out for the smash community and thank you for all the informative, funny, entertaining content you have put out throughout the years! ❤
Holy fuck I initially didn't catch that you put it on the same date as the panda cup hahaha!! That is fucking hilarious!
Lud is like a combination of the millionaire hero we deserve and just a massive fucking troll, and I am so here for it!
I've never watched a smash event in my life but you can be DAMN sure I'm tuning in to the scuffed world event December 18th!!
We really have to thank Mogul Mail for putting out this content before even mainstream media!
Mainstream media is slow and usually incorrect
@@seeingstar. Bro you don't needa tell them, just like them and move on
TBF, mainstream media doesn't care about smash tournaments. They're reporting much bigger things, we're just interested in this because its our small gaming bubble but that's about it.
@@didgeridooo how are bots replying to other bots now. this is going too far
I'm also shocked that Dr. Alan is still CEO of Panda after all of this. It definitely feels like Panda should part ways with him, good riddance.
His removal would go a long way to relieve the all the hate that his company's getting. I hope they *don't* get rid of him for this reason. I'd hate to see an even remotely successful tournament for Panda after this.
This is why we love you lol. I hope great success comes to your tournament!
Congrats on 1 mil!
I swear, Ludwig always clutches with getting all the information. These videos are always bangers bro!
whos ludwig, i only know of mogul mail
Wrong channel
Uhhhhh who's Ludwig? This is Mogul Mail 🗿
Bruh this is mogul mail wrong channel
Buddy mogul mail killed Ludwig live on stream
Hey man, great to see you still supporting the community that you came out of. Keep up the good work with the news/updates and I'll be tuning in to your tournament!
Thank you Lud!! Thank you for covering this, and getting the scuffed world tour running. We are so lucky to have you supporting the smash scene.
Very cool from u Lud hope the event goes well. Wish u all the luck!
youre such a great guy i wish i could be as giving as you are when it comes to other ppl
Congrats to Esam for beating a level 9 cpu to win Panda Cup.
shoutouts to Wadi, Coney, Josh, and Cody for having the balls to up and drop their org, and delving into the uncertainty of free agency. I hope they all get picked up promptly! 👍
i've been waiting for Lud to host a smash tourney since forever!! can't believe Mogul Mail had to step up to the plate instead
Yet another massive W for our ludWin King. Can't wait to tune in! Luckily I had no other plans for the day, I don't think anything else interesting is going on then. So Excited!
Just recently started paying closer attention to Ludwig and his content obviously I've heard bits and pieces of what he does but god damn what a guy. Nothing puts a smile on my face faster then Ludwig saying "so I decided to do somethin fuckin crazy" and then proceeds to completely bring life and good into a shit situation. Keep it up
If Mr Team Rocket Alan's first ever response to this situation is crying about Ludwig's event 'ruining' the panda world tour it will be extremely hilarious. Hopefully Panda has a PR team to stop his twitter fingers 💀
Wpuld love to stop by for that only event it interacts with is the big family Christmas gathering, might watch during our yearly smash matches
I really like your stuff man. I don’t follow your main channel but I enjoy the commentary and it’s very informative. Always like listen to it
no matter where ludwig is 1, 5 10+ years from now he has cemented himself as the mr beast of the smash community
Ludwig, I hadn't heard of you before the Ludwig Invitational, but it's really incredible what you're doing for Smash Bros. I'm not one to stream events, but I'm absolutely streaming and donating to Scuffed World Tour.
Thank you for covering this lud. You're a real one
As a Ludwig and Melee enjoyer, thank you so much for doing this for Melee
If you add 8 more players it would be one of the most stacked events ever. It would be amazing
The only issue would be streaming so to get around that just make like 2 streams for melee and 2 for ult
@@whitelightning4416Thats what he did for his invitational so he probably will dot hat again
Huge respect to WaDi, Coney, Josh and everyone else leaving Panda!
And I'm really looking forward to your tournament 🙂
gotta love mogul mail's to covering ludwig's event, that camaraderie 10/10
Love you Lud! Good content, real impact. ❤
the announcement at the end was some of the realest shit ive seen in a long fucking time, good job lud
Next Mogul Mail:
THIS IS HOW NINTENDO SUED ME FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT
I actually look forward to every Mogul Mail. Keep it up Lud!
Freaking love everything you publicly do and how you manage the content on All your stuff, always keep it up
Thank god Ludwig is in the Smash scene. He has done so much to help the community its just so amazing
Whose Ludwig
the fact that ludwig is making light out of the situation is just amazing!
In the overwhelming tidal wave of creators we see today, I never really followed Ludwig even though I was aware of him, but this just put him on the map in my mental real estate. Baller move and excited to see where this goes
Maybe this is corny, but I really appreciate Lud and people like him for doing in relative, small things. He isn’t changing the world, but he’s doing something for a community, and those things really matter. If you yourself ever get the chance, try to give back to your local community, or a community for an interest you’re in. It can mean a lot to people, and can help to build a community that can advocate for betterment of larger communities.
Thank God Atrioc has you as a friend, he still has a chance to save his tattoo thanks to you Ludwig!!
Yep.. we better thank GOD over a tattoo

Community, it is now our job to hype this tournament up, especially including the context behind it, so it becomes one of the most viewed Smash events ever streamed. Don't take it for granted that people already know everything that went down and about the existence of this tournament. Spread the word, make posts, tweets, etc.
Stay goated Lud, the whole scene will help carry you for as long as you carry us
you're such a great and awesome person, lud
Let's go,
Great step for the smash scene, thanks for organizing a tournament.
Nice job organizing and going over all the main points, Ludwig.
Ludwig is the hero we all needed.
Ludwig as wholesome as ever, saving the party from doom

I fr hope that they all accept the invitations. Guaranteed I will be there to watch live
ludwig back at it again fixing things unfairly broken.. love this dude
seriously lud your fuckin goated for all your contribution to the smash scene, thank you
Nice that's great, see you online on Dec 18 👌
Ludwig’s body language is so impressively well structured, he really has it down to a notch, and you can really notice patterns across all of his videos with his gestures and voice fluctuations. I think he can be considered a more than valid journalist.
Bravo!
There is a difference between a presenter and a journalist.
You Would Not Believe the Full Clip That I found! (also making fun of bots)
th-cam.com/video/xvFZjo5PgG0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Duran
His research was really lacking. You can tell there wasn’t a lot of planning in his statement. He mentioned that he *wondered* if Panda’s CEO was breaking any laws without researching if that’s the case. And a few other minor things that made little sense. He seemed to just reacting to the tweets and official statement issued by Nintendo and Panda.
@@FrostReave to just address that - no journalist would directly claim that a law has been broken, in the same way that no journalist would make a medical diagnosis (unless, obviously, they were a lawyer or doctor). Speculating around it without stepping into a different field, I would argue, is good journalism.
@@JecIsBec I suppose that there are some good points there. Doesn’t change the fact that Mogul did exactly what you just said is bad journalism. I would prefer they know what they are talking about if they are gonna bring it up at all.
Creating the scuffed world tour is amazing! I hope it draws in all of the viewers and raises a ton of money for the world tour organizers!
Youre such a bright light in these dark times.
Thank you so much Ludwig.
May this be a fucking great tournament!
already loved you for hosting the previous invitational, this is amazing!! pls invite 8 more!! yoshidora, sparg0, kola, zomba, tweek, kurama, miya, maister all deserve to be there on the ult side!!!
chag and ferps deserve to go for ult too given what they sacrificed to be there!!
Please invite Sparg0
This is the most gangster thing you've ever done. So excited for this.
Thank you for supporting the scene ludwig ❤️
Sorry bro hate to say this but this ain’t Ludwig. This is mogul mail and while I understand the confusion, mogul mail has made it clear he does not appreciate being called the wrong name
Great of you to step in and try to help out those who were affected by this B.S.
Wow. You're the man, Ludwig. The way you support the smash scene and give back is amazing. This is also one of my first youtube comments ever. That's how much I, a huge fan of Melee and Ult, appreciate this. I'm sure the players do as well. Cheers
You’re the goat for running that tournament. Someone with enough influence and money to show a major corporation the passion that some of their consumers have for their product. Mogul Mail is forever goated
