Everything about this man’s storytelling from the music choices, to the epic training arc is just downright impressive. My day gets better every time you upload. Keep making cracked content!!!
I miss the old upload schedule, but I appreciate videos period. Seeing you clearly stress out over time and hard grind these challenge videos makes me sad tho if you don’t like it we don’t need it. Just do what makes you happy poppt. It’s literally your channel! Thank you for content and have a good day!
thanks for the concern! But tbh I love making these vids more than the daily uploads. Just when I upload daily content I'm not going to mention if I'm ever feeling burnt out/tired, these vids make me feel ALIVE LOL :)
Seeing your improvement from the 7 Day video to now is actually mind-blowing. You've improved so much in a short amount of time. Good job. As someone who's wanted to start practicing Melee but scared to take the first steps, this video is a huge confidence booster, so thank you. Keep up the amazing work!
Only advice is realizing when or if you get to the hurdle poppt talked about. I almost quit when I got to it but once you pass it the game gets so much more fun.
The strategy at 6:24 is excellent! Just emulating the movement of the pros helps to internalize the KIND of things they do. Great way to improve, especially early on.
Good stuff man! I've been playing Melee competitively for 8 years now and I still always enjoy hearing newcomers' experiences. Glad you found the game so rewarding.
Melee is far different a game. Because of many accidents, Melee is far more physical than most games. Melee requires years of practice to be good. Melee effectively uses seven characters but the fast-paced nature makes it interesting. Furthermore, Melee is so broken than tricks are being found to this day. In short, Melee is so dense that even if you understand it it is a far different atmosphere than any other Smash game.
The improvement was so satisfying to see! 4th was amazing and you actually had a great punish game for your level, makes sense with M2K analysis lol Also don't know if you know, but 2007 M2K is actually a meme to most, no other melee pro thinks he's do well today but it's fun to think about I would love more melee though, maybe just chill Unranked in between recording for TH-cam. Maybe it could build up to you entering for a major like you did with ultimate BAM
Yoooooo you should seriously take up melee! Longtime competitor here. People rarely have as studious of a practice routine as you demonstrated you have, and your energy and genuine joy were heartwarming and really took me back to when i was younger(: you have so much potential!!! Melee is a lifelong hobby thats kept me in touch with some amazing friends. You should try going to an in-person local sometime, theres nothing like it!
This is the kind of content Melee needs to move forward, IMO. I've played competitively since just before the release of Brawl, being the weird teenager who showed up at a college apartment for a local and getting wrecked by real players on my G&W, and while I've never been good at Melee, this past year I finally hit the realization that my goals now, as an adult, weren't to be the best, but to learn the game and just really enjoy how Melee feels and how the community works. This video is a fantastic showcase of how you can play super sub-optimal (no disrespect to the content creator) but still really enjoy the depth of Melee because MOST OF THE SCENE IS SUB-OPTIMAL. Sure, a top player could watch these videos and pick apart mistakes, but it's not about the top players, it's just about learning the game and leveling up your own skill as you play against others doing the same.
I'm just glad to see Smash content again lmao. I don't mind the bigger gaps between content to avoid burnout, but it feels like forever since there's been a Smash video lol
getting good at melee is one of the most ambitious things I can think to do lol. I gave it a shot and I just can't comprehend the speed at which your hands have to move to pull stuff off.
I think something that you have yet to realize is that Melee is an INSANELY hard game to get good at. There’s a reason why things are still getting optimized at the top level, even after the game has been out for 21 years. It’s not the type of game that you can just pick up and play. You have to climb the tallest mountains, but the reward at the top is MASSIVE.
Loved this video. M2K is such a good dude. I really enjoy seeing him do things and same with you. Glad you guys worked together a little and you had a good time, the video turned out amazing!
I personally wouldn't find it bad to see more melee. I do want to see you win one of these tournaments, I would watch all of these videos of melee. Good luck! Great Content!
This was a great sequel to part one, glad to see the practice pay off. If I were to suggest a game to play next I would either suggest a shooter like Halo, or another fighter like Dragon ball Fighters Z Keep up the great work
personally I think dbfz would be better when rollback drops because it might cause a temp spike in interest and get the video more activity (although ufa this last weekend was really hype ) So I'd like to see Popt try Guilty Gear Strive instead or if he wants a bigger challenge go crazy and try Tekken😈.
I say play it more! Even if it has to take a bit of a backseat, I'd love content about melee. Learning Jigglypuff, sheik, a spacie, peach, or of course just implementing more Marth technique would be great content.
Absolutely love the transition this channel has taken from daily uploads to these high quality long form improvement documentaries. Really cool direction and pretty unique on youtube. I'd love to see you try TF2, it's regarded in a similar way as melee, due to the depth of its movement mechanics and the high skill ceiling.
Good try poppt!! remember if you choke at any game that means you’re on the cusp of greatness, just need a few more games to get it down! Next time you got this! We believe in you.
poppt1 i used to play ultimate and your analysis videos helped me get into competitive smash. during the pandemic, i had to quit ultimate because it was unplayable and switched to melee "part time," and now, i don't play ult at all. make the switch dude. join the dark side. please. your videos are great and i haven't been keeping up with them until i saw that you were playing melee now. you're so sick already after one month!
Anyone else notice that Poppt1 almost always does better when he has fun XD like a soon as he gets analytical he gets a bit worse. It's inspiring cuz im the same. Sometimes i got to let go of everything and just have fun
Same, it's for that reason I'm afraid to try when I'm playing against my friend who's better than me. Every time I don't try I pull out some crazy bullshit.
If you would stream for like a few hours a week of melee and made a video of your highlights I would seriously watch every single one. I’m a smasher who found out about competition from melee and I loved watching you play. Seriously hope you upload something melee related in the future.
Good vid, very awesome to see new players and they way its told is very well put. I will say as for peach this will make sense later but once you stop jumping you basically win the matchup because if she gets that hit while you are in the air its ggs her combo route is super good on marth, just don't jump basically but not always its hard to say at least I do that and it works so well good luck!
@13:28 I don't think Croc (crocodile_live) was trying.... he was commentating on another match while playing you, pretty sure he has you hands down... I'd love to see a rematch.
I don't think you don't need to go through all the effort to make these videos(amazing btw) if you just want to play melee and I know I'd love to see more of you playing it
When dude said "I've wanted to be a pro ever since I first saw mew2king play" I felt that. Then when he said the first time he saw him was the documentary I felt the rust setting in behind my joints 💀
Poppit, u should try to start a series where u master kazuaya and then chalanges underdogs, pros, and surprise them that u know how to zero to death. Maybe get riddles help to learn.
Reminds me when I wanted to be good at melee too. Although I had a bit of a buffer since I also played Sheik alongside Marth to make my matchups easier. The good old days.
Hey poppt genius idea, you post just like 15 minute videos of highlights from each of your streams so that if we miss a stream we can still watch some of it.
The bags under the eyes... The slowly progressing beard... The scheduling conflicts...
This man didn't just work for this,
HE SACRIFICED FOR IT.
Amén my friend, amen
A small price to pay to be better
Everything about this man’s storytelling from the music choices, to the epic training arc is just downright impressive. My day gets better every time you upload. Keep making cracked content!!!
Do you know the song?
Ok tinker
If ykyk
Absolute legend.
Thanks for showing some love to this beautiful game. :)
Let's gooo gg melee!
"An ultimate pros playing melee?! GG Melee Reacts"
If you make this you could also include the melee side bracket at ult summit
I miss the old upload schedule, but I appreciate videos period. Seeing you clearly stress out over time and hard grind these challenge videos makes me sad tho if you don’t like it we don’t need it. Just do what makes you happy poppt. It’s literally your channel! Thank you for content and have a good day!

I believe in you son
@@berryjuiceofficial482 Thank you!
Take the leap! There are so many amazing resources for new players now. It is so rewarding in the beginning and you will improve so fast.
i just hope his views start reflecting his effort, hope it’s not affecting him mentally

Good stuff man! I've been playing Melee competitively for 8 years now and I still always enjoy hearing newcomers' experiences. Glad you found the game so rewarding.
Very proud of the way you have grown this channel, and the variety of content you post. Keep it up, Poppt!
i say you keep playing melee as much as possible this is the first time melee has ever genuinely entertained me
Same.
No hate but I genuinely have no idea how someone can like Smash but not love watching Melee if they understand what’s going on
Melee is far different a game. Because of many accidents, Melee is far more physical than most games. Melee requires years of practice to be good.

@@Flamerunner451 melee feels like its own game sometimes.
@@Flamerunner451 I like other aspects of smash than the incredibly fast pace and tech. It barely even looks like smash at a point.
The determination that jordan shows in his vidoes. Amazing, keep up 👍
The improvement was so satisfying to see!
4th was amazing and you actually had a great punish game for your level, makes sense with M2K analysis lol
Also don't know if you know, but 2007 M2K is actually a meme to most, no other melee pro thinks he's do well today but it's fun to think about
I would love more melee though, maybe just chill Unranked in between recording for TH-cam. Maybe it could build up to you entering for a major like you did with ultimate BAM
The overconfidence into frustration is a true combo rivaled only by taunt to get bodied
Yo Tiquono!
Made my transition to melee from ult a little over a year ago, main ics in melee and Ive been loving the training arc you've had!
I wouldn't mind the wait for another melee video. Your videos are always great no matter how long they take, quality over quantity.

I'd love to see you do more Melee content poppit! Great vid!
Dude make a VOD channel and just post all of your stuff, unedited, on there. Love the vids bro, this was a great story.
These are really interesting videos, well done, would you do one of these types of videos for speed running a game?
Little Z has his best characters. But with this "going pro" series, Poppt is going to say "This is one of my best games".
I love the longer format videos ❤️ seeing your improvement from the last video is crazy!
The quality of these videos is so great - really enjoying the content as of late!
17:48 "I hope I can get some cool stuff" Up throw-up tilt ensues
I'm just glad to see Smash content again lmao.
I don't mind the bigger gaps between content to avoid burnout, but it feels like forever since there's been a Smash video lol
I feel like you really have the melee spirit please keep playing melee

Analize, adapt, absolute wreck everyone.
This is what Meelee training feels like :)
Hope you're not giving up on ultimate!
algo recommended me this vid and did not dissapoint.
If melee is sick just keep playing bud we gonna keep watching the content
you should do some melee challenges with the underdogs!🤩
Loved this video. M2K is such a good dude. I really enjoy seeing him do things and same with you. Glad you guys worked together a little and you had a good time, the video turned out amazing!
Don't stop playing melee, you're cracked!
Me waiting the hour and a half till poppt1 uploads like 🤨😐😐😐😐🙂
please continue this series ! i love seing you train melee, great video poppt
I personally wouldn't find it bad to see more melee. I do want to see you win one of these tournaments, I would watch all of these videos of melee. Good luck! Great Content!
Great video! I would love to see more melee
One tip, get comfortable at wavedashing to ledge. It’s one of the fastest ways to grab the ledge so you can edgehog a lot more doing it
So inspirational. Maybe I will pick it up some day. Always been a big casual Melee follower
Killing it man! Love the video and the editing! Good luck on your melee journey!
This was a great sequel to part one, glad to see the practice pay off. If I were to suggest a game to play next I would either suggest a shooter like Halo, or another fighter like Dragon ball Fighters Z
Keep up the great work

love ur content bro. always fun to see someone just try to jump straight into a game like melee and Enjoy all the pains and Triumphs :)
I can't with the wise mistical tree music lmao
good video tho and how funny would it be if Poppt became ranked in his City in Melee
seeing how much u enjoy melee, i'd be willing to wait to just to have another epic video, but i'll be happy with whatever u choose >w
I say play it more! Even if it has to take a bit of a backseat, I'd love content about melee. Learning Jigglypuff, sheik, a spacie, peach, or of course just implementing more Marth technique would be great content.
Cool video, really fun to watch your Melee story in the modern era. 👍
Awesome video! I'm a big melee fan so it's super cool seeing you progress! I'd love to see more in the future!
Absolutely love the transition this channel has taken from daily uploads to these high quality long form improvement documentaries. Really cool direction and pretty unique on youtube. I'd love to see you try TF2, it's regarded in a similar way as melee, due to the depth of its movement mechanics and the high skill ceiling.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO YOU HANDSOME DEVIL
I hope you play more melee! Was fun as playing you and watching your runs!
loved this series where you take on new games, thanks for the videos
Good try poppt!! remember if you choke at any game that means you’re on the cusp of greatness, just need a few more games to get it down! Next time you got this! We believe in you.

Like, in general, these are great, but he really has a knack for Melee Marth and he should really get into this at some point.
The quality of these are amazing and I love your videos!
Can’t wait for the Overwatch one! ❤
idk if its because im a melee head but melee poppt is exponentially more hype than usually
Poppt should definitely check out rivals.
Jordan is screaming, everyone, so it must be good.
Great video!! Would also love to see one of your progression in jiu jitsu also! (If you’re still doing it) lol
The rapid improvment from 1 week to 1 month is unreal.
bro when are we playing so we can see how good u got ;)
This series never dissapoints!
Would love to see 'journey to top 10 in my region' type series on melee. With your experience in competing i believe you could do it
Anyone else notice that Poppt1 almost always does better when he has fun XD like a soon as he gets analytical he gets a bit worse. It's inspiring cuz im the same. Sometimes i got to let go of everything and just have fun
Same, it's for that reason I'm afraid to try when I'm playing against my friend who's better than me. Every time I don't try I pull out some crazy bullshit.
the freakin MIND GAMES!
@@Poppt1 the fact you Liked and replied just made my day! Your my favorite Underdog and SSMBU Creator! And i love your Training Arc videos.

Excellent video. You TOYED with that Fox
Please keep playing melee - it’s so much more fun to watch than ultimate
is it me or does he look like the person from dk oldies 💀
Bro that was your best video by far ! Keep up king
2:46 USE THAT ENERGY MY BOI
I’d absolutely love multiversus content
I don't think you don't need to go through all the effort to make these videos(amazing btw) if you just want to play melee and I know I'd love to see more of you playing it
also you are really good for 30 days. even with the ultimate knowledge
Mew2King's Marth really hits different. He's so clean, calculated, and precise, it's insanely satisfying to watch.
Good to see you at it still Poppt1
Skyrim music was a beautiful touch. Always love to see a Poppt vid
Poppt1 you are god in disguise sent here to alleviate us from our daily mortal boredoms
Don't say that
Why? It’s a joke dude
@@PessoaDixon the comment was against real religion, since he is calling a human a god
When dude said "I've wanted to be a pro ever since I first saw mew2king play" I felt that. Then when he said the first time he saw him was the documentary I felt the rust setting in behind my joints 💀
I would love to see more melee on this channel beyond the challenge
Jordan finally did it, he made it, he has raid shadow legends as a sponsor
Poppit, u should try to start a series where u master kazuaya and then chalanges underdogs, pros, and surprise them that u know how to zero to death. Maybe get riddles help to learn.
no don't stop at melee this content is amazing
It would be super sick if you did one of these for Splatoon at some point! It's an amazing game, especially competitively.
Bro poppt is gonna be in the avatar state if he keeps meditatin lol
Good job poppt, you improved so much in melee. When is the yugioh video?
see now i want you to become an actual pro melee player
Amazing content man keep it up
We need to see the chess amateur tournament
Reminds me when I wanted to be good at melee too. Although I had a bit of a buffer since I also played Sheik alongside Marth to make my matchups easier. The good old days.
TH-cam never shows me the upload notifications, but I'm here regardless!
Peach is an odd character in Melee. You handled yourself very well all things considered.
I know you gotta upload stuff but id love to see you keep play eventually with how much better youve gotten
Definitely keep going I would love to see you win
I glad he finally fid exactly what I've wanted and learned melee
Poppt1 'bout to be a Melee regular!!!! LETS GO!!!!!
Poppt1 making Marth dance like that! So proud of ya bud! I'd say topping the No.1 Seed equals to a Successful Grind!
Hey poppt genius idea, you post just like 15 minute videos of highlights from each of your streams so that if we miss a stream we can still watch some of it.
amazing vid
I think you should try sheik(or however you spell it). I think you’d do well.
