This is why I love Hungrybox. Even after he loses in grand finals he still is smirking, happy for his fellow competitor who he KNOWS has a mental block against him (Or just jiggs in general)
My post was almost a year ago people, he had a fairly bad run in the middle of 2014 and displayed it by his lack of good sporstmanship[in comparison to what was displayed in this video.]
Hbox puts on extremely overdone faces to hide it to the public but he's actually fairly well known among the high level players for being a dick to anyone he sees as below him, and for the people at his level they all dislike him because they see all the fake overdone nonsense he does in the public eye for attention. They don't think he's a good representation of a top smash player because he makes it look like its all a performance rather than being a proffesional e-athlete and tbh I agree with them
Hungrybox is such a class act. I wasnt sure who my favorite player was before this video. Now im sure. If we want this to grow as an e-sport, as a community we are going to have to learn to be less salty and more importantly practice good sportsmanship, like hbox.
People don't like that he makes you play his game. He is really campy and it slows the game down and a lot of people don't appreciate it. I hate that he receives so much crap for that though because the way he plays is nowhere near as easy as he makes it look.
T Kanklez No longer quite as campy as he had been in past, upon viewing recent matches in the least, though he has developed somewhat of a lack of fair attitude as displayed in this video.
ILikeTrtlz well if you are reffering to his kirby yes that is fucking stupid but as for his ice climbers they always looked pretty legit when i've seen him
Just from watching the Smash Bros Documentary, and never really seeing or keeping up with the Smash community. I loved seeing this. I loved seeing the rivalry take such a major turn! GGs All!
Yeah, he really comes off as an ass for most of his commentating with Toph. Granted, Toph comes off as a total nerd, copying everything Scar says, which was a little odd, but still, be more respectful Scar.
Good job both M2k and HBox. Winning both of doubles tournaments, making top 8 in project m singles, and coming 1/2 in melee singles. HBox has been on a tear in both singles and doubles. Great sportsmanship in the end in defeat by the hands of his weekend partner. And good stuff by M2k. Showing versatility and resilience. He played Marth, Sheik, Fox, and Peach seriously during melee. He showed that on this day, the person who knows his matchups and is versatile enough to play them all, will win.
in this context it's because it's a very mango-esque way to place the move. both were reads on movement & very characteristic about the way mango gets some of his kills on hbox specfically. ESPECIALLY those uairs, just fully calling out how he's gonna float down.
It's funny how they were talking about the return of the king back in tbh3 and then talk about the return of the king in tbh9 after another win against hbox
Oh my gosh I just love both of these players! I love M2K for who he is and what he does. Always follow his matches and always rooted for him vs Mango. And I've loved Hungrybox for his amazing sportsmanship and just realizing its only a game. I have mad respect for both of these players and I really had no idea who to root for. Great matches.
i think a large part of it is that mango refuses to use puff in singles these days, but if he did decide to do so(his puff was looking real clean while practicing for EVO) i think it would still go either way because m2k seems to have learned how to fight puff based on his performance against hbox in these 2 sets.(granted hbox and mango have such contrasting puff styles that its kinda hard to tell)
so the issue is that mango is the only fox in the world who pulls off those uairs vs. hbox. I get that it might come off as Mango dickriding, but really we're giving a nod to the fact that Mango absolutely invented that style of punishment as Fox vs. Puff. It's akin to the Ken combo, Scarjumping, ROM infinites (in Marvel), etc. The innovator gets credit.
After game two hbox paused in disbelief or surprise. But you could tell, even he was proud of m2k for finally over coming him. And cheering for m2k after the set was over. So much respect. Great job m2k, you deserved it. Ggs hbox.
THIS FOX IS WAAAAY TOO FREE FOR ME!!!! Best part for me is seeing Jason overcoming his mental barriers (which we all have) AND juan being SUCH A RESPECTABLE MAN!!
I was definitely rooting against hungrybox the entire match but that sportsmanship from him was wonderful. Mad props for having a great attitude even with everyone rooting against him
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
THAT REST...!!!!. Best kill I've seen in a while. I always watch M2K's fights to watch him lose, but this time he did deserve to win. Played excellent.
From my understanding Mew2king _and_ hbox are emotional players. That can be very beneficial for them but it also makes them unstable. In this case of big house 3 Mew2king is much more stable whereas hbox is dependent on his beats now, hoping for a miracle like what happened in losers finals against PPMD (not saying he didn't earn it).
M2K is looking like he is aging, firefox, shine=light, and he switched off of black marth vs PP. The only thing better for this quote would be if he beat Hbox with Marth.
8:45 intentionally went into the rest, because he was SO CONFIDENT in his uthrow chases that he wanted a free stock trade it was at this point where I just kind of kneeled down to our now re-throned king
M2K self-admittedly copied a ton of tech from Mango in this matchup. We don't make this stuff up. >_> Regardless, I'll try to do a better job of explaining why we call things what we call them in the future. I get that it comes across as mindless meatriding if you're unfamiliar with the styles of the various top players.
honestly m2k vs mango has become one of the most even MUs among the top 5...you never know who's going to win going into their sets these days. Mango won their last meeting (losers side of bracket) with fox at Zenith, after losing to m2k in winners with falco. Mango lost a set a Socal EVO qualifier event called Vindication but lost a set in GFs to m2k marth vs falco then beat m2k in set 2mango came out of winners after beating m2k in WFs).And of course m2k beat mango in winners&losers @ Apex2013
Rainman + Tom Cruise = M2k + Box. These guys are bros and HBox definitely cares for M2K. If you watch the M2K vs Mango match where HBox and KK commentate, you'll notice that HBox always wanted Jason to win because he deserved it. Love these 2. Shoutouts to these bros b4 manghoes xD
I understand that hungrybox uses gimmicks to be good at the game, but that's honestly why i think hes a great player, he found his own way to compete with the best and he doesn't just go with the higher tier characters.
Scar seriously needs to calm down on referring to everything as "Mango this" and "Mango that." It's starting to get extremely annoying. We all know you love Mango. We get it.
I want him to win at least one big major again but its unlikely I mean lok at this even hbox cheered for him bc as Toph said:"Everybody loves seeing m2k doing well bc in so many ways he is smash brothers"
Happy M2K > Serious M2K.
Happy2king > Sad2king
@@HuyNguyen-vj1uw yeah 👀
M2k is so adorable when he's happy
5:32 wow he actually used shine turnaround before doing the up-air so that fox's 2nd hit would be on the left side closer to hbox...that was genius
wtf that shit was crazy
"you wanna just drink a bottle of scotch by yourself and just watch the old games." Lol we love you scar
I just realized that's why I came back to this set.
This is why I love Hungrybox. Even after he loses in grand finals he still is smirking, happy for his fellow competitor who he KNOWS has a mental block against him (Or just jiggs in general)
Return of the King.
I come back to this video just to see M2K happy and smiling. Happy2King is Best2King.
same :)
The smile after he won gave me a bright smile as well :D
HBox is such a chill bro
HBox is such an amazing sport. Props.
Sadly, he has recently not been showing the same standard of sportsmanship :c
***** Why, what happened around 6 months ago?
+Corinus Richen (Nobody) At evo 2015 he was showing it. Is there a tournament in specific that you are refering to?
My post was almost a year ago people, he had a fairly bad run in the middle of 2014 and displayed it by his lack of good sporstmanship[in comparison to what was displayed in this video.]

For reals. M2k deserved that, he played so damn well
M2k is also a very good sport, he gets sad when he loses but not salty, and lets not forget that stock he gave mango in GRAND FINALS (I think)
deni484deni Yeah, I even think he lost that set didn't he?
***** MIOM SSBM Grand Finals - Melee / And yeah he did lose that set.
John De Tombe Any specific examples besides Paragon? Maybe a little bit when he raps mid-set i guess
That fucking buffed out guy in the background lol
Mew2king... We need you back like this.... You can do it, we still believe in you
Hungrybox is such a great guy, I will never understand why anyone has given him a hard time.
People don't like that he makes you play his game. He is really campy and it slows the game down and a lot of people don't appreciate it. I hate that he receives so much crap for that though because the way he plays is nowhere near as easy as he makes it look.
T Kanklez m2k plays much campier though but it doesn't show as much because he plays faster characters
starfox300 Yeah dude, this entire Grand Finals was just a big camp-fest.
T Kanklez
No longer quite as campy as he had been in past, upon viewing recent matches in the least, though he has developed somewhat of a lack of fair attitude as displayed in this video.
He's not hype. Melee is hype.
I wish all grand finals ended like this
these guys are my two favorite players :]
WOW! What sportsmanship!
Welcome to smash, especially melee (Chudat doesn't exist)
***** well he does but his ice climbers super classy. I don't even think he wobbles
Dalfgan_the_Blue you probably haven't seen xanadu weeklies.
Dalfgan_the_Blue you probably haven't seen xanadu weeklies.
ILikeTrtlz well if you are reffering to his kirby yes that is fucking stupid but as for his ice climbers they always looked pretty legit when i've seen him
Even though M2K isn't the best loser, Hungrybox still shows great sportsmanship.
I'm just gonna watch from 9:55 on about 10 times. It's so great seeing M2K so happy.
Just from watching the Smash Bros Documentary, and never really seeing or keeping up with the Smash community. I loved seeing this. I loved seeing the rivalry take such a major turn! GGs All!
Happy M2K fills me with joy
Since this tournament, M2K has gone on a rampage. So sad it didnt get the chance to be in the smash brothers documentry.
He was in the documentary...
Recoverywat no he meant that its sad that this moment and the ones that have followed didn't get to be in the documentary
Crowd: Mew2king!
Scar: AY!!!!!!!!!!!
scar pls stahp being loud as fuck
love the commentators
I never stopped believing in the king of the mews...
scar if you could not yell over the other commentator every time you sit on the mic...
that'd be great.
Yeah, he really comes off as an ass for most of his commentating with Toph. Granted, Toph comes off as a total nerd, copying everything Scar says, which was a little odd, but still, be more respectful Scar.
+Joe St Eh it more seems like they're friends to be honest
Good job both M2k and HBox. Winning both of doubles tournaments, making top 8 in project m singles, and coming 1/2 in melee singles. HBox has been on a tear in both singles and doubles.

M2K is fucking amazing! I hope to see him destroying on SSB4.
Commenting after 8 years when he's pulling solid results in Ultimate with Aegis
so many great memories of '07 m2k's dominance came rushing back to me. Congrats Jason
This old video reminds me how much Hbox has grown as a player.
in this context it's because it's a very mango-esque way to place the move.
both were reads on movement & very characteristic about the way mango gets some of his kills on hbox specfically. ESPECIALLY those uairs, just fully calling out how he's gonna float down.
The sportsmanship at the end was great. Congrats M2K! Props to both smashers!
Me too! TH-cam limits it to 30fps.
It's funny how they were talking about the return of the king back in tbh3 and then talk about the return of the king in tbh9 after another win against hbox
there was an interview with m2k right after this and he said as long as he has a controller which is really good, that's all he needs.
lol hbox's final tag. this grand finals was all fun, i love it
mango vs m2k fox ditto needs to happen now
Oh and it was nice talking to you in the other stream
~Dapuf
He's definitely been watching mango videos!
Oh my gosh I just love both of these players! I love M2K for who he is and what he does. Always follow his matches and always rooted for him vs Mango. And I've loved Hungrybox for his amazing sportsmanship and just realizing its only a game. I have mad respect for both of these players and I really had no idea who to root for. Great matches.
Scar Toph Wife commentary combined with these unexpected matches, this tournament is destined to go down in smash history
I absolutely love how even though Hbox lost this set, he hands M2K the trophy and then chants Mew2King with the crowd. True sportsmanship.
After coming back to this I feel like Jason could do better in tournaments if he brought out his fox more.
20XX
Skyline8180 It hurts his hands, it's only for HBox now
Amazing job, m2k!
Props to Hbox for being one of the only players at this tournament who were classy and sportsmanlike about losing.
That's why I love watching HBox play. He never makes a big deal about loosing.
hungrybox is such a considerate guy when it comes to sportsmanship, i really respect him for that. Great set
Two great players. Out-fucking-standing play from m2k and well deserved respect from hbox.
Who remembers the saying that m2k would never take a set from hbox? Man times have changed. I would love to see future uploads on 60fps tho
i think a large part of it is that mango refuses to use puff in singles these days, but if he did decide to do so(his puff was looking real clean while practicing for EVO) i think it would still go either way because m2k seems to have learned how to fight puff based on his performance against hbox in these 2 sets.(granted hbox and mango have such contrasting puff styles that its kinda hard to tell)

It's akin to the Ken combo, Scarjumping, ROM infinites (in Marvel), etc. The innovator gets credit.
I rarely like watching hbox because of his style of play but I have to say the sportsmanship out of him is incredible.
This set made me so happy. Good fundamental play m2k!
That smile from Mew2King after he won...priceless
After game two hbox paused in disbelief or surprise. But you could tell, even he was proud of m2k for finally over coming him. And cheering for m2k after the set was over. So much respect. Great job m2k, you deserved it. Ggs hbox.
THIS FOX IS WAAAAY TOO FREE FOR ME!!!! Best part for me is seeing Jason overcoming his mental barriers (which we all have) AND juan being SUCH A RESPECTABLE MAN!!

Press 1 if you are proud of Hungry Box
We've been waiting for m2k to win this since like 09. Feels pretty sweet. LOL
THAT REST...!!!!.
Best kill I've seen in a while.
I always watch M2K's fights to watch him lose, but this time he did deserve to win. Played excellent.
So glad to see M2K take this. HBox, as always, a class act handing off the trophy like that. I love this game.
RETURN OF THE KING
After watching that Smash documentary...
Hungrybox is a great guy
VGBC is the best audio is video quality imo.
From my understanding Mew2king _and_ hbox are emotional players. That can be very beneficial for them but it also makes them unstable. In this case of big house 3 Mew2king is much more stable whereas hbox is dependent on his beats now, hoping for a miracle like what happened in losers finals against PPMD (not saying he didn't earn it).
M2K's slowly learning. Seeing less full hop Nairs and more grabs.
Because M2K even said, "I played like Mango played"
And "I copied so much of your fox stuff, it worked"
I've never been for M2k , but seeing this is AWSOME!
That 6:34
The return of the King!!!!
M2K is looking like he is aging, firefox, shine=light, and he switched off of black marth vs PP. The only thing better for this quote would be if he beat Hbox with Marth.
8:45
intentionally went into the rest, because he was SO CONFIDENT in his uthrow chases that he wanted a free stock trade
it was at this point where I just kind of kneeled down to our now re-throned king
If you can, try uploading on your website at 60fps
Yeah man, nice talking to you too
Scar won't let Toph finish anything he's trying to say...
6:15. Incredible tech chase.
M2K self-admittedly copied a ton of tech from Mango in this matchup. We don't make this stuff up. >_>

So happy right now... so happy...
M2K with near perfect fox play
And M2K actually studied for once in his life.
Wasn't a great recently anyway? He beat Mango at Apex last time as well.
aw that smile
i agree PP has the saltiest looks after he loses and Mango just looks pissed
m2k inspires me to have confidence in myself, just from playing a video game
In this video, M2K means Mango2king
metalgamer21 No. It means Mew2King
BlueCrystal004 Ikr
***** You realize I meant you, right?
BlueCrystal004 Mew2king not mango2king
***** It was a fucking joke because he played Fox, dumbass

it all worked

scar knees...darkrain knees......mango attacks.....cause he places a move , and it shouldn't work but it does...which is why mango is mango
Great commentary
RULE #1 when m2k grabs, you know you're fucked.
7:59
"No DI..."
"PHENOMENAL DI!!"
Not to mention, Mew2King's already taken Sheik tech from European Sheiks.
7:10 scar is fucking hilarious lol
I want him to win at least one big major again but its unlikely
I mean lok at this even hbox cheered for him bc as Toph said:"Everybody loves seeing m2k doing well bc in so many ways he is smash brothers"
The problem is he doesn't have the motivation like he used to because he's more focused on trying to be good at sm4sh
Down-throw to up-smash. CRAAAAZY. 2:39
