      It’s not even that, Melee is just so expressive once you get to the top and you fight other top players you can just recognise them from their play style

    I wonder if the pressure of the old "God" title gets to PP and makes him experience imposter syndrome when he plays top players. People were banking on his return for years and I've wondered ever since his return if maybe he's been afraid of letting people down by being 'exposed' as a disappointment.
    In reality, everyone thinks he's cool and just wishes he would take it easy, have fun, and try his best.

      Thought the exact same thing. What's beating PP, is PP (which is obvious, he let us know of his mental challenges). I just wish him all the best even now, he's always been my favorite of the gods. A truly humble and kind person with a killer Marth and Falco. Fucking badass lol. Long live "Stack It Up".

      plus it's been so long at this point and the average person is so much better the few times pp does play top players he always does better than anyone would expect like no one would freak out if he didn't get great placements right when he comes back to tourneys but he's obviously mad good. He was the one who got me to play the game years ago I still think his playstyle stands out wish he came back.

    The fact they recognize each other just by the style of play says a lot about how dedicated top players are to the game. Back when both of them played they studied each other's patterns to no end for an eventual advantage in case they fought in bracket, and it wasn't just PPMD studying Hbox and vice versa, they probably did that for every other top player at the time. That's just part of what it takes to be that good at melee

      HBox did actually surpass him in 2015.
      In 2014, PPMD was rated 3rd and HBox was 5th - below all 4 other gods. In 2015, HBox simultaneously overtook PPMD, M2K, and Mango - being ranked 2nd that year. PPMD ended that years at 6th (this was the year Leffen ranked 3rd, so it was the first time that the top 5 wasn't all 5 gods).
      That was the last time PPMD was rated before he stepped away due to health issues, so it was the very last chance HBox had to beat him, but he did manage to do it.

      their record is 8-7 pps favor lifetime, but the last two years they played (once each year, 2014 and 2015) hbox won a close set, so not enough info there, hbox favored maybe
      however
      only pp, armada and mang0 have won tournaments with all five gods in attendance (last one for pp being apex 2015, where hbox got upset by PewPewU); hbox never managed to take the tourney against the entire field of gods
      sadly there's not enough data to determine if hgod "surpassed" pp in any meaningful way *specifically @ the head to head*, but in overall achievements, pp was only ranked #1 in summer 2013, while hbox was #1 for three years, more than any other player registered (this also has nuance but whatever he the goat)

    PP has said many times that he believes his health work will help much more than playing top players and that it’s fine if you don’t understand that. I can understand him after seeing him play other top players specifically when he ran into salt on ranked. He would be aware and point out specific situations he kept losing to but he expressed that he couldn’t physically react or deal with it at his current state. Playing with other top players and constantly being reminded that you can’t physically play as well as you used to and you COULD’VE beaten that situation would just be torture. Good for him taking one game and leaving.

I always had respect for him, being one of the Gods I feel was on the fringes, and really sadly faded into the background in comparison to so many others, so seeing that he’s just enjoying the game at all anymore, even still willing to play top players and still play really well is just nice to see! Obviously I’d love if old, recognizable names that I would hear about in tournaments, but I know how absolutely selfish that is. My sole, real wish, is that those names I respect can one day enjoy melee again or frankly are enjoying their lives.

    Everyones assuming pp left because hes scared of hurting his ego or of what others think of him, which is certainly possible, but think its likely he got stressed by competition and doesnt really want to dip back into it for mental health reasons
    And there could be loads of other reasons too, i just don't really like people assuming things of other peoples mental state and the reasons why they do things, especially when some people are making such a big deal over it.
    Similar to how pps very vague about his health issues and people say "oh if they actually mattered he couldve come back already its been 10 years" like chill youre not a doctor, maybe his health issues are a big deal amd deserve him taking it slow.
    And yet these people are valid for pps been expressing a will to return to competition for ages and a lack of detail will make people assume, i just dont think i like the situation as a whole

      I mean out of Mew2King, Armada and PPMD, he's the most likely to come out of retirement and keep up with everyone else competitively. Mew2King is doing great things with coaching, and Armada streams but he isn't keeping up with the game at all. I don't see why Mew2King would want to return and how Armada could make up for his enormously long absence from the game as a whole. PPMD on the other hand is very active in the community and desiring, at least somewhat, to return. Now, of course it is incredibly stressful and he doesn't want to devote himself to the game anymore to the level that he did before, but let's not get too cynical.

      @@sticlavoda5632it’s time to give up on that dream man, sorry to say. I love PP too. But after ten years, he’s a lot older now, the competition is extremely fierce. If he couldn’t figure out the health issues for ten years, what’s gonna change?
      We all have anxiety and depression. Most of us have physical health problems too, that’s what being an adult human is like. I’m in pain 24/7 and have been for a decade as well. But at a certain point I stopped using it as an excuse and just got the fuck on with my life, gritting my teeth and getting through it. Either he’s going to do it or he’s not, waiting around for his health to magically change is only hurting him.
      He needs to let go of the “I’m damaged” shit and just live his life if he wants to be happy. And I’m saying that in regards to life, not playing melee. I don’t even think he should try to compete. Lots of us have serious health issues, we can’t let it stop us from living life. Constantly telling yourself “I can’t because of my disease” or “why am I cursed, I’ll never have a normal life” is just training your subconscious to believe that you can’t do it.

    If PPMD wanted to play Hbox he could probably message him anytime and play together, and he could probably even set it up being off stream if he wanted. Obviously he doesn't want to play Hbox right now, whether he has mental or physical health problems doesn't even matter, just let PPMD make his own decisions

    I really respect PPMD's discipline with Melee, it's really hard to say "How I interact with this game isn't good for me and what is sustainable for me" and to make change on that. His decision is one that is very personal and unique to him, he clearly loves the game overall, but how he engaged with it needed to change for him, and to not only recognize that but also actually implement it is admirable.
    He is always exposed to top play in Melee, with analysis vids, running into top players online, watching tournaments, etc. he is always there just like before. And despite the highs competing brought him in the past when he played at his top level, and the temptation of going back to competing "just for fun" or "one last tournament" being always present by well-intentioned fans, PPMD always respectfully declines and holds true to his decision that the way he interacted with Melee before is not how he wants to do it now.
    It's easy to stop when you hate something, it's easy to stop when you hate something AND isn't healthy for you, but it's damn hard to stop when you love something and it isn't healthy, because that's addiction. Mad respect to PPMD for not only his incredible play and tenure with Melee, but also to recognize when it wasn't right anymore and to shift into a way to engage with Melee that is better for him overall.

    Impressed Hbox figured out it was pp, the inverse isn't near as hard to figure out since it's an elite green headband puff with a very distinct playstyle, like there's no one it could be BESIDES Hbox. Meanwhile, a more common main like Falco or Fox is MUCH harder to ID (unless it's M2K), but even then, pp's signature neutral game was enough of a tell for Hbox to notice.
