- Believe it or not, Mew2King has NEVER seen the Smash Documentary before. EVER! Until now. Despite literally being in it himself, M2K now watches it and provides incredibly insightful commentary on a lot that is shown in the Smash Doc.

‘I created the meta, so I would know” 😂 Savage2King
Where?
Raymond Wu it’s like a minute in. Like 1:25 lol
Im left4Bread and the moment he said that i knew id be in this video, jesus
This was the commentary i never knew i needed
I just paused to comment this but you beat me to it lmao
M2k trained so hard, he pulled a Saitama and lost his hair
and just like Saitama, he shows a genuine smile when there's melee tech related commentary that he could truly relate to lol.. 😁👍
he had his hair in 2007 tho
you prob know this already but at grade 7 he did 50 diamond pushups everyday which made him buff
"That's very suboptimal" is the most M2K thing I've ever heard.
I would buy the shirt
i think urrrgh thats inaccurate comes pretty close too 8:01
'I'm not a robot, that term is very inaccurate. It just represents having tech skill.'
That's what a robot would say!
He's a robot because of his mental processes and perspective on the game. He doesn't have a feel for the game necessarily... only optimization after optimization of a multitude of situations learned by rote memory. Like, say, a robot
One of the first things he says in the video. "That's very suboptimal." Yeah... Not a robot at all... >_>
@Skratch Rapture Yes, he isn't a robot irl, but he plays like one
Skratch Rapture - props too you for not starting a argument when someone calls you out on a mistake... most of the yt comment section would start world war 3 over that.
"basement dwelling nerd" *laughs to self nervously*
So M2K playing in his sleep was a lie this whole time
Just like crimmus.
All the M2K stories in it were damn.
No Chillin responded to this calling it bs even though he loves M2K why would he fall asleep with the controller in his hands and still have them like that when Chillin and his friend woke up the following morning
I think this is a case of remembering things the way you want.
you can tell he's being sarcastic, it definitely happened lmao
M2K talking about how beating people makes him feel bad because he empathizes with them reminds me of MKLeo's SmashCon interview. Leo didn't pop off against Samsora or even look all that happy...because he knows he made a ridiculous comeback and his opponent must feel awful for losing. Celebrate your achievements, M2K, but hold on to that empathy you feel for your opponents. It respects them as competitors and as human beings.
I love how that video is so old yet hungry box was still in the same sort of mood years later
Narrator: Korean DJ one of the best players of all time.
M2K: why would you fair there? This dude is TRASH
Ramon Espinoza suboptimal
m2k talking about how good he got fighting computers is hilarious and i'm absolutely in love with this video
tell kids "fighting cpus wont help you need to fight players to get good" all you want but always remember
fucking m2k, literally referred to as a god of the game, trained against cpus
m2k: "why would you let someone else win, even if for fun"
"I got someone to donate 20k"
M2k: "Honestly, I am melee"
@@D_Vice88 lol no one cares
@@hillbilly1231 youre right no one cares. smash is a joke to other fighting game pro circuits
@@D_Vice88 yeah lol isn't the most sold fighting game of all time or anything
@@D_Vice88 youre trolling but honestly other fgps couldn't learn how to move and play neutral in melee if they tried
You're awesome Jason, you went into the Big House 9 with the idea that you didn't want your viewers expecting much. However, after beating HBox, and iBDW in a close set, and getting 5th, after almost a year retired, you're still the GOAT man. I'll be backing you in whatever you decide to do after this moving forward. Also got to see this live on twitch, chat was losing it's shit at the fact that the sleeping tech practice was a joke, kek.
M2k really hit that kid with "I created the meta so I know"
The vod is still on m2k's twitch channel if someone wants to see the full thing.
Edit: Name of VOD is "Melee Practice then Smash Doc Stream! (First time watching)". The doc starts at 2:52:39 :)
Edit 2: Twtich vods get deleted after 60days or so if you can't find it that's why
Thanks!!
Thanks a lot
Ty
You are literal fucking live saver dude
What a homie rofl
Just want to say that this editor is great! Really understands what makes mew2king a funny and unique person and puts a spotlight on the best moments. Keep it up!
1:30 "Ah you think Marth FD chain grabs are your ally? You merely adopted the chain grab. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't lose a stock on FD until I was already a man."
Shoutouts to NOVA
"m2k was that basement dwelling nerd" - his reaction LOL
literally after he's spent minutes explaining how he got good without any human interaction.
Its cut off here but in his actual viewing, he goes ".......not basement........." lmao
I've actually never watched the documentary either, but this makes me want to rectify that, because M2K is the embodiment of "hard work beats talent" and that's one of the reasons he will always be my favorite Melee player. It was cool hearing M2K tell the stories, especially the NOVA tag, which I was curious about when I started watching Melee.
m2k is behind the rise of every top smash player since 05 and none of us knew better
And Ken is behind his rise, apparently.
U weren’t around then chill kid.
Hes totally right about how crazy the smack talk used to be back in the day.
Honestly, I kinda wish it was like that now.
Why...? Sportsmanship and being nice is why people keep playing the game.... i went to a tournament where i had to fight a top player... did pretty well but ended up losing and the sportmanship of the people around kept me motivated to improve... if they trash talked i probably wouldve dropped the game
trash talk is epic and not trash talking is nerdy xD
Yuri Ricarte then you don’t really want to compete in the game. You’ll hear stuff like this in the real world too and you can’t just give up just because someone doesn’t believe in you. You make then regret their words. Even m2k said that about ken.
Smash talk is ugly on a personal level but it makes for good stories and good stories are good for melee.
21:01 that recovery though
Whenever M2K comments on how anyone is not playing optimally in this video I can't help but laugh
Its crazy that M2K is the reason Melee is alive. It would be dead without revival of melee and Evo 2013. M2K is Melee
Glad to hear Isai is a happy person after all
He's just a secluded person, but he always looks like he's having fun when he shows up to the rare Smash Bros 64 tour
He's depressed over a female smh
@@fupalover SIMP
Someone not M2K: says something
M2K: That is inaccurate.
Someone not M2K: Does Something
M2K: That is sub optimal.
M2K: I wanted to be like Goku and Vegeta growing up
We all did, brother, we all did. :)
Idk if m2k will ever read this but youve always been my favorite player in melee and I truly want to thank you for everything you have done for melee. Melee would not have gotten to where it was without you so thank you so much! The melee community misses you ❤
I think "savant" is a better word for M2K than "robot".
Sounds better than aspie.
Forgot they did the producers friend like that 🤣
“I am the documentary.”
I finally finished melee twice
Dude. M2K. You're like a brother to me. Your IQ inceptions and projections are much like mine. The difference here is that I was always afraid to use my ability for contest. WAS, though. I always hated the idea of being rivalled. Seeing people get bitter just because you're good at something always brushed me the wrong way. Now that I'm over that, it makes all the difference.
The legend is here.
"Pasty white kid?"
midocrimsonfate It’s weird huh. Even though I hate double standards like that but society has made it okay to say things like that but not the other way cause of racism or whatever
Its a quote, Hence why he says "where'd this pasty white kid learn to play BASKETBALL". Listen.
@@novamous777 It's not a double standard and it isn't racist to mention a person's skin color.
midocrimsonfate reverse racism isn’t a thing.
@@midocrimsonfate1948 calm down snowflake
I legit remember getting a message from Jason Zimmerman (who I think at that point hadn't spoken to me much) saying "Hey vote for Melee in this facebook poll" and then like a week or so later "Hey Donate for melee". I actually was inactive on smashboards so I had no Idea about the spirit bomb situation but once I found out I also donated and started messaging everyone. That was such a great time.
I love to see how much Mew2King has changed and grown over the years, coming out of his shell, it really is amazing to see. Love ya man.
CONGRATS ON 5TH IN SINGLES AND 1ST IN DOUBLES
Hell of a documentary huh.. Ive watched it like 3x
Had fun watching this. Loved your performance at TBH, hope we see more sick M2K bracket runs soon. The Melee's always better with you in the mix.
16:00 would really like to see a video about your friendship with zero
The whole segment was so wholesome.. Everyone needs a friend like that!
I like how the doc is about the emotion and pathos and such of the players and yet all M2K cared about was the unoptimal gameplay.
I really really relate to what he was saying at the end, if I see my opponent getting frustrated, I’ll usually try to dial it back cause I’ll feel bad... losing in a fighting game is frustrating man😂
I’ve been looking forward to this
22:26 Achievement Unlocked - “Empathy”
On a serious note, I loved this commentary. I need to go back and watch the full version.
❤️M2K
The dude that donated thanks unknown legend.
@1:23 i said "lol, only m2k can make fun of 2007 melee" unfortunately he misinterpreted my statement as an insult when infact, it was a compliment for the exact reasons he laid out.
thanks so much for doing this m2k, your the best dude
M2k dying at the end with the relaxing music on the background = straight to TOP 10 wholesome deaths of anime.
Congrats on the Big House win jason!!!
7:22 Jason is like the Forrest Gump of melee
I am a Brawl sympathizer who's been around for a while and I would tell people about how the doc intentionally made Brawl look awful; and how Brawl was a bigger game than Melee. People would look at me like i was some delusional liar. I'm glad Jason addressed this.
Yeah you're still wrong. Just because the wii wildly outsold the gc and therefore more copies of brawl sold doesn't mean it was the "bigger" game. Hours played by esports champs is more important to culture than the amount of games sold to the Everyman imo
@@AlaskaBoyAlexbrawl was a bigger game than melee was goofy
Are you talking about in terms of file size? Because no one plays brawl competitively any more and they stopped as soon as the next installment came out@@SRM13
That was a great story you told at the end. Thanks
“I created the meta, so I would know” is a very M2k thing to say
lol when the dude called m2k a basement dwelling nerd he was like:
👁👄👁
Yeah some random dude
M2K, you did AMAZINGLY given you hadn't entered for basically a year... I hope you'll be entering more often now, if you're having fun ofc
M2K has such an amazing memory
From everything I've seen about M2K, I always thought that he was just faking the sleep melee practice. Long live the M2K
DAMN I thought M2K was actually playing in his sleep the whole time
Jason Zimmerman. A genius of hard work.
Y’all need to just upload Jason reacting to each episode! I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE
I wish I was there for the whole stream
Cbass there is any rediff ?
Wife’s random audio throughout this was hilarious 😂
Most players: you can't get good only fighting cpu's
M2K: Hold my controller.
I hope the whole viewing gets posted, theres too many golden moments to fit in just a highlights video
do you have a link to it?
I'm really surprised M2K hasn't seen the documentary before now. Cool to watch the reactions tho.
Out of all the competitive Smash players M2K is probably the most iconic!
Mang0 was talking about him praying to god to get dreamland before the set with you in an old stream I think
woah that 20k story is huge! I wish more people knew it.
I'm wearing the same shirt as M2K
Really digging the P5 music
just started playing last week
"Pasty white kid"
11:51 :”You were the chosen one”
“I created the meta, so I would know”
M2K: I'm actually the exact opposite of a robot
a natural disaster?
Damn I didn't know about that 20k donation, did that man save Melee?
Possibly, the doccumentary also might have saved it but we cant know for sure. It really sucks i havent heard from nova at all though itd suck if he didnt really like the game anymore after he did so much to truly save and revive it. Ive reached out to the south Australia scene and all i got was a response from one of their top old school players joking (im pretty sure) about how much he didnt like that guy
Nah I don't believe for a second he hasn't watched it
m2k is the only human who is truly honest
11:45 WTF I watched that video as a child like a decade ago and thought it was real all these years
Can’t wait for the book! Hope there is an audiobook version and that you read it !!
22:17 This man quite literally had to explain what empathy is to people as if it’s a weird concept.
This video feels like it’s long overdue
The end theme to this doc makes me cry....
"i created the meta so i would know" lolm2k i love you and your content m2k
Dude sauced on the entire doc. And honestly the first doc was great but I tend to believe M2K over the doc maker
*doesn’t mention scar in the spirit Bomb at the end*
Your friend from Australia is amazing for doing that 20k donation.
M2K truly did become a splendid shinobi with hard work and perseverance.
22:00 I know that feel all too well. I stop playing well when crushing an opponent. It's sad in the strangest, most draining way.
Wow m2k didnt watch the doc till this many years later? Thats crazy
How has m2k never seen this?
No one:
Mew2King: THATS INACCURATE
How can one man be so endearing and so insufferable at the same time
Man i hear ya there, bummed out that someone you have respect for lost their hope.
this is awesome. love this m2k
20:00 who is this person that had 20k lying around that they could donate for a video game tournament lol
No doubt about that this person is a true hero.
lmao this has to be one of the best videos on youtube
i wonder how many people have been waiting for his input of the smash doc for awhile wondering what he thinks of what was said, what was actually true, things like response to what ken said or what the players summed up his playstyle or how he thought, the 2006/07 era, that tournament vs mang0 etc.
definitely just wondering what happened behind the scenes from m2ks pov. especially the sleep/couch troll lmao.
things even like brawl being more popular for the first 5 years is interesting. back when i disliked smash and only knew of brawl, it seemed it was the only thing people would play on the wii, but looking it at it from a competitive stand point and not knowing of the scenes or games at the time, it seems looking back at it that melee was more popular despite it not being so. i barely knew about melee then or 64, people always made up things about the games so the timeline and facts about the games were never true or understood.melee was considered the 2nd smash, newer. brawl or melee was slightly discussed over what was the best, people mentioned 64 and it was considered fake or at least never mentioned when it was, and that supposedly pikachu and kirby were broken.
i hated smash till 4 was given as a gift from a friend at school on the 3ds. i remember another friend wanting to give me the unlimited demo but i thought it was pointless, the title screen didnt even help give controls, just said special and attack button lol. i ended up trying to learn pikachu on the demo by dash attacking till the edge of the stage and using smash attacks, barely learning quick attack as a recovery, marios up b, and links up b. (i still havent used up all the remaining attempts)
during brawl, people would never tell you the controls and you had to play on the damn wii mote, just to be beaten in a pokemon battle (trainer vs trainer) of all items on spear pillar (i think). i remember always wanting to play pikachu or meta knight and they were considered bad, and i could never recover or understand how final smashes worked, any fucking controls.
now ive wasted money on the wii u for 4, and the gc controller and stupid knock off adapter, time on melee and 20xx, now i recently got the switch for ultimate despite despising the idea knowing its not possible, and i find no friends want to play smash anymore.
its weird to think what it would be like if i could understand then, play and learn then. i feel the same towards things like yugioh, always wanting to try until i finally did, and learning about competing was amazing. now esports is huge and im still wondering if i should try smash ultimate, melee, more of yugioh, counter strike and try things like magic the gathering, or even speed cubing for the rubiks cube. i wanted to try clash royale but the community is not great.
i think its ironic he mentioned that hiatus before rom and getting 2nd, he just recently had the hiatus for tbh9 and placed i think 5th? at least i think that was what was said in the esports espn video that was recommended. and then he just got 2nd at elgx a day or 2 ago.
i keep thinking about him sometime beating mang0 probably because of the damn pound thing (lol) but also because of the past sets vs mang0.
I wish he was commentating the whole thing lol
It is time for a new documentary!!!! Make it happen now
Zero is the yoda of smash. "do not give up there is no try do only, your better yo"
M2K the Rock Lee of Smash
