Armada looks like he is battling the person who killed his whole family while Hbox is wondering whether or not he should have ordered the soup or salad.
So Armada is Inigo Montoya while Hbox is Saitama.
@Tianze Shi armada is quite campy too and m2k camps harder but no one gives them shit about it
@Tianze Shi I mean what do you expect, Hbox is gonna be stupid and just run up into foxes powerful smash attacks like bruh.
34:28
"This game is not easy! Sometimes you gotta grab the ledge, sometimes you gotta shoot those lasers, but sometimes, you gotta down air knee and pop off on people, because melee's got all that together. You do what you have to do."
I like how uncomfortable Hax is when Hbox is crying
lol ur not wrong
"crying"
Spaghetti Dog Hex is like: W-what is that? Emotions? Crying? Is that like a new tech?
I think hax was more concerned by the little kid wearing a pink falcon helmet that was sitting next to him
When I started watching Smash I never thought I would see the day where Hungrybox is considered the best player, but here it is. Good shit to him, love to see him doing his best.
same. fuck the haters.
He was before at one point. How do you think he became a god?
someone with a fox pfp complimenting hbox, fucking wholesome
@@xtreamdream439 he was ranked in 2010 but ppl still considered mango as the best cus that was his scorp era, he stayed top 5 for years after that mostly 5th and eventually 2nd in 2016 and became the best in 2017
Looks like we’ve got ourselves a new #1! Congrats!
He can't be #1 if he didn't beat him.
PPMD plz come back.
Hbox being number 1 is now a time where all of the old gods have been the best in the world at some point. Hbox has always been solid but never the best until now.
itzAsianFool He was the best in 2016 when he won EVO, he was also the best in 2010 (Although Mango was sandbagging at that point)
Hungrybox is the best of all time.
Benjamin PP literally never beat HBox since 2013 tipped off I don't think PP is the one who could stop HBox And also this is coming from someone who's favorite player is PP
Also major props to Beyond the Summit! This was the best tournament viewing experience I've ever had. From the tournament itself to the skits to the no-mafia fake out to the chill vibes the whole time. Absolutely incredible work.
Tselel I've got to agree, I have been so happy to watch this summit journey from all the fun stuff to the crazy melee. Thank you all.
Hbox won 30k, the title of the best player in the world and the heart of his fans in just one set
F_Crp Mir that was pot bonus shiiit man!!
fucking amazing :')
tbf, he already had the heart of his fans
tuanisthename fuck yeah !
We hbox fans have always been dedicated. Just so glad he's making us all proud.
This really cements how Juan is just so much better than everyone else in melee. Only top puff, playing his worst matchup against all the top players, and destroys them anyway. Not even losing a set. He has pushed puff so far beyond what anyone thought she could do, combo game, setups, trades. Pushed his own reads so far that after just a single game he's reading DI for even more crazy setups. The most consistent rest hits ever. He is just amazing. Congrats Hungrybox, the new king of the game full of Foxes, is Puff, beautiful.
Congrats Hbox on preventing both the 5-peat and the 3-peat at the same time ;)
What 3-peat did he stop?
15MinuteUpload Armada's record of being ranked 1st.
that's not what he's referring to at all
While I was hoping for Armada or m2k to win, I'm ok with this. Congrats on the first summit win hbox.
Charlie Dickson M2k hasn't won a "big tournament" in a while. He played amazing in Canada though
x Toms That's why we want him to win.
Same.
Charlie Dickson m2k isn't #1 material and I don't think he will ever be. Losing to axe? I know axe is great but you can't be losing to axe if you want to be #1
I'm Shooketh he used to be number 1
The new #1 player in the world is a puff main. Who'd of thunk it
Westin K. Ayy fam it’s you again

*who'd've* short for who would have
Battered and bloodied, the Swedish king fell to his knees. He searched his cavernous mind for an answer... but he knew there was no way back to glory, not today. The yellow haired one mustering his last remaining strength raised his head. There, on the high mound, stood at silhouette lit only by the dying sun to the north. Such an unusual and splendorous armor did he dawn. A translucent pink aura emanated from him, and when lit by the sun it appeared as if a rising Phoenix had come to make it's presence known. An insatiable rage gurgled from deep within the defeated heap of a man. And as if to curse god he cast his gaze upon the heavens and howled "I... AM... GOD!" And it was at that moment that, as if a matter of destiny, like the Red Sea once parted, so too did the heavens part. Split by a single blinding ray, the heavens chose the pink entity. All the Swede could do was look on in horror. And as if galvanized by the light, the pink one boomed "I... AM... THE GOD OF GODS." In a thought the Swede was pulverized, atomized, call it what you will, but he was no more.
Adrian Reyes Beautiful.
Awesome
gay
this is amazing, like actually the most amazing thing, well goddamn done sir
What
Remember just two months ago when we all said Mang0 is the easy #2 for this year with Hungrybox at #3?
Welp.
He’s definitely #1 now. Good shit Hbox, it’s been a long run.
Damn, what a game. Good job to Hbox, and congrats on Armada, he's always a great sport.
what a nice pic at the end with the whole community :)
Except for Armada
Armada long pause after EVO damaged his momentum, Hbox attended a shit ton of tourneys meanwhile, that matters in the long run.
Agreed. We saw this with Ally in Smash 4 too when he took a month off before EVO.
Leonel Remille but armada never did alot of tournaments to begin with right? I can't remember.
He is definitely not as active as M2k or Hbox, but he is about as active as Mango. You have to keep in mind that he needs to travel a lot. He is also acclaimed in European tournaments. Many people are not aware that he participated because not as many people watch European tournaments.
Anouk de Vries this. He made a video about it. He can't go out to every single event. He still is placing really well.
14:30 holy fu** hbox chill
lk8lk8lk8 Ooooooooooohhhhhh baby!!!
that was sick tho
20JJ, the year of the Puff.
"I'm not used to applause" YOU MONSTERS
This time he only cried instead of falling on the floor then crying.
The Hbox paradox, if people stop playing fox vs hbox, he will be worse in the MU
F_Crp Mir i agree! IMO puff is under rated. There's a reason only a handful full of Foxes can take his puff out. Again in my shitty opinion, puff has more answers for Fox that he does on puff. Aside from Hbox being Hbox.
The problem is Hbox won't really get worse at the matchup unless the meta evolves to a point where his matchup knowledge is outdated. Hbox has become incredibly good at the puff-fox matchup, and he's not slowing down any time soon.
Another problem is that many top level players currently don't have a good alternative. What are Armada, Mang0, Mew2King, Plup, Leffen, and SFAT supposed to do? Peach, Sheik, Marth, and Falco do worse against Puff than Fox does, and Leffen and SFAT have no secondaries.
Thats the paradox,
Hbox is so damn good in this match up because everybody plays fox vs him, and tbh the MU vs puff is based only in hbox (for puff side), Hbox lost a bunch of times vs foxes in the past and he grind a lot of experience that even though puff worst match up is fox, he knows how to react to every option fox have. He plays vs agressive foxes (mang0), laser camping foxes (m2k, armada), and other foxes styles (leffen, plup, sfat).
Remember that Hbox is playing vs foxes more than 8 years, and he force to switch caracters to M2k Armada and Mang0. One day vs top level foxes= a day in the office for hbox
msbmteam "Peach, Sheik, Marth, and Falco do worse against Puff than Fox does" That's debatable in Marth's and Sheik's case as long as you're not constantly fishing for grabs like M2K loves to do.
Fox is not the answer. 20XX is a lie!
This guy just won 30K playing smash....major props to him. That is more than many people make in a year!
In case you guys didn't know, Armada beat Hbox in the previous 3 summits in grand finals
HBox is #1. I'd say he was due for a huge popoff... And normally I hate his popoffs. But 30k+ and #1 in the world? Yeah dude, pop off.
*Imagine hating a person popping off whenever he wins, how dumb must you be?*
Man hungrybox certainly has a lot of passion for the game and I can respect his displays of emotions at reaching the top. Melee is more than just a game for him.
Spoilers
Good stuff! I'm so happy for Hbox!
Bow to your new king.
You can think of Hbox whatever you want but this guy is putting his entire heart into this... his dedication and the work that he puts into this is truely inspiring and still this guy is so genuine and humble... much respect for him as a person and what he is doing for Esports!
Hbox's pop off is the same as my reaction to watching this live
Fucking nice hbox, you fucking did it man.
Thinking about it, the Smash scene feels so similar to tennis. Imagine Federer as M2K, Nadal as Mango, Djokovic as Armada, and Murray as Hbox. And think of Summit 5 as 2016 Barclays. It's actually crazy that they have the same scriptwriters.
5 years later, Alcaraz and Zain appear to be the next future GOAT contenders.
@@kupodrinksmilk Damn, that's true! Glad to see the scriptwriters haven't changed
@@PPeasants Love the parallels Melee has with sports. Especially tennis; so dope.
Congrats Jaun
Look I get , jigglypuff is lame to watch and her playstyle is boring. BUT this man is the ONLY puff player able to play at this level. Now if he played ice climbers it would be a different story. Shout out to hungrybox for playing at such a high level and making our favorite players have no choice but to level up and get better in order to beat the number 1 player right now.
true
It'd be an even more incredible if he was playing ice climbers, an even weaker character.
It'd be even more incredible if he was playing Ness, an even weaker character
Lmao Ice Climbers are shit.
The American Patriot what I meant was that there are more high level ice climbers players than there are high level puff players
HungryBox crying got me in tears. Fan for the longest
I like that make HD Melee happen ender
Damn. As someone who isn't a Hbox fan it's hard to see him win lately but you gotta respect his results
Wanted Armada or Leffen to win this Summit but damn Hungrybox is a monster at the moment, wondering if he can keep that form for next year or else it will be another insane title race
I love how Plup is rooting against hungrybox.
Angelo Reyes
Most people are unfortunately
Doesn't Hbox always root for Plup?, dick move.
Not a dick move at all, Hbox roots for Plup out of some Florida-loyalty, in which he never plays with any of those players outside of tourney.
@@jamiecal11 is he required to?
how did this man make 30000$ in just under half an hour?
Watch this video to find out!
Where are you PP? We need you back, man.
BaneOfXistence4 lol PP ended up gettin smacked too
Its so satisfying to see Hbox destroy all the foxes
Armada was shinin' till he started cryin'
Future king of melee. Hungrybox.
So happy to see Hbox take this tournament.
Who could've predicted this
I love Hbox, still not a fan of jiggly puff, but I love his love and intensity he has for this game.
Congrats Hungrybox!
Congrats to HBox! Deserves the #1 tag
I wonder when PP is coming back...
I was mislead, based on the length of the vid, I was certain there'd be a reset. That was tense,
im so fucking proud of my boi Hbox.
I know it means a lot to him because he gave up his engineering job to focus on melee
still remember the hype of him winning Evo in his pizza vans my boyyy!
20XX? not if the Puff has anythin to say about it!
Congrats to HBox! And good job Wizzy on giving HBox a field day ;) We need more counterpicks to keep things fresh
He called it "down air knee" instead of stomp knee..? Tf?

Remember when Esam got voted into Summit?
Selcuk and beat Armada with Samus.
How are you supposed to recover as Fox? You have one of the best recoveries in the game yet 70% of the time I've seen the Fox try to side b, Hbox always throws out preemptive fair, and when they up b he reads that and just goes out there. Dropping down seems like instant death since Puff can just trade with fire fox, and when they try to air dodge back onto the stage he just clips them with fair. It seems like the most optimal way to deal with this is try to take Puff down with you, but how do you do that when they have 6 jumps?
Fieryvortex48 don't get knocked off the edge. Laser spam then kill with a single upsmash at like 35% Lol. I think fox actually wins the matchup but hbox is so good it doesn't matter
That's the point. Besides that situation, fox wins the matchup with lasers, out spacing nair/bair and killing with up air/up smash. If you've been knocked off, you overextended and it's your problem, not puff's. Her only strength at all besides rest is extended edge guarding. Hbox just does it in a godly consistent way. It's crazy
Kirby
Use a more viable character
You can vary the height at which you start your up+B to mix it up, as well as the angle to go for above the ledge to drop to ledge, above the stage to drop to a platform, directly to a platform, straight to the main level of the stage or directly to the ledge.If you're close enough to the stage itself, air dodge becomes an option. If you're already below the stage, though, you have less options to work with. it also gets tougher as you get further away from the stage as he can react more easily. Hbox makes it look easier than it actually is in many cases, but sometimes an edge guard is basically free, like it can be with any other character.
Phil with the no pop off read
I'm not used to applause so I got emotional :(
What a great speech. Congrats HBox!!
"3rd place"
"HES WASHED"
What ever happened to that stat sheet we had last summit? Itd show up at the end of a set, show neutral wins, anyone know what I'm talking about?
Best in the world!
lets fucking go Hbox uwu!
The most important set of 2017
God damn, it took 5 fucking Summits to bring Armada down.
Wait.. Is Crunch actually his brother?? Or does he mean that metaphorically lol
Guy Lloyd Metaphorically
This game had stakes of an additional 15,000 dollars holy shit
at 31:27 something about the moon eating nuggets in the background while Hbox cries is hilarious hahaha
seems end of melee :v final chapter
The beginning of a new era
era of a dishonest player becoming the "best" melee player lmao
How was he dishonest John?
@@JohnSmith-kx3tg tf
Notice how Mango isn't there when they are interviewing Hungrybox
Every single time you see hbox do an up-throw, you hold your breath.
Alright Juan!
SHOUTOUT TO MELEE HD! PLEASE NINTENDO PLEASE.
I would be so down to root for Hbox if he acted like he did here instead of the cringey popoffs
Congrats Hungrybox! I appreciate your humility to Hbox. Hell, I WISH I could make $ playing video games lol. Armada, even though you came in 2nd, you're still amazing bro.
Also, why was that Reno guy sat in that exact spot like all day just staring at his laptop?
32:04 Westballz ❤
hbox is the #1 box for sure. i'll give him that. and this year he's been definitely hungry.
He didn't have a look at armada. Feels Bad
I mad e the mistake of reading the comments and getting spoilers rip
Why does the Final Destination stage look so small here? Or is it just me
Much respect for hbox. As much as i prefer to watch other chars, he continues to be on top against all these foxes in a losing match up.
If they didn't give up on other characters to play against Puff, they'd ironically be better than Fox against Hbox. They make it super easy for him to prepare for matches when all they do is go Fox and never switch it up.
apocalypseap True but then mangos falco. M2ks sheik marth and armadas peach have all proven powerless in the mu. Perhaps if they tried them more often they may do better but everyone has the mindset of only fox beats puff.
M2K is really stubborn in some ways, so he's not a great example. He loves going for grabs, and Puff can duck under them, so he gets whiff punished a lot. In order to win you would have to change your playstyle to use grabs sparingly, and M2K refuses to adapt in that way. Plup has beaten Hbox with Sheik before in 3/5, so it's doable. You just have to play in a specific way. PPMD has done it before with Falco too iirc, but he put in the work for that character and matchup development and it paid off. People generally don't want to put in the work of developing a different matchup if they can avoid it, but clearly Fox is not working against Hbox as well as they hope when that's all top players use against him.
I can't disagree there. But then regardless of character there isn't really anyone at Hboxs level to practice with regardless.
Hbox the goat
Look at Westballz clowning around with circus music in his head
That ain't Falco
When they gonna invite JLin7 back to the summit house? Even if it was just... Random...
He doesn't play melee, he plays DotA and overwatch
Respect!
Intense set. However... Does anyone know if there is a full video of the entire wrestling match? I want to see it again
Does anyone know why it just says UCF and not 2D on the upper left of the CSS? Are they not actually using 20XX TE?
iugh puff, but congrats to hbox
The tears he has he just shed are him coping with the following:
The struggle of ignoring so much misguided negativity of what you've heard about you and your play style and your character choice combined with the focus of making sure you stick to your plan with every matchup and mid set adaptation service pack on top of practicing and leveling up real world human factors like reaction time like crazy. It must've hurt multiple times and many points but there was no time show the pain.
Armada's been there before in a different way and the pain is real hence his own tears at some of his big wins. He can let it all out now because he's won it once again despite all the "odds". The reality of the situation is that there were no crazy odds statcked against him. He's a smash god amongst smash gods and this result should've been wholly expected. It was for me, plus I'd still like him more even if he lost due to his tenacity, focus and composure. Well played Armada. Congratulations Liquid Hungrybox. You and Tempo Axe will forever be my favourite smashers (can't forget PC Chris).
Hbox made it this far with puff. Phenomenal job
Plup eating chocolate putting is amazing
Hax looks like he was forced to clap
Looks like Armada got dethroned.
Year of the puff
Good job hbox congrats on his 1st win at smash summit
28:08 Hax looks so defeated. I bet he said to himself "Puff is fucking lame"
Everyone gets their turn. Mango had it, my boi PPMD had it, Armada definitely had it, ken had it, im pretty sure M2K had it for a bit. I don't like HBox too much personally, but he's earned his turn, ill concede that, all day. GGs my dood.
