    I used to love Hungry box but then, I saw him in a supermarket. I approached him and told him how much I respect him and how he is my favourite smash player. Then we hugged, and it felt nice. But then he up throw rested me and killed me instantly.

    I was actually a bit teared up when Hbox said “Do you know hard I work out here?”
    That voice, he got emotional and yet he held it back, it was such an intense feeling

      The Smash Bros community is mostly childlike in mindset at best, and the sad thing is that it permeates all levels of play as well as all AGES of players. There are people who are AGGRESSIVE in establishing that they do not play competitively and insult those who do, as though competitive players are somehow not only playing the game wrong, but that anyone who aspires to more than casual play is also part of a "problem" of some sort.
      I remember seeing people driven off of forums because they brought up more competitive concepts during a discussion of Smash Bros, and forum regulars trampled over eachother to dogpile on them and insult them. And like the racist trash many of these people also tended to mock and insult, they played it off as "it was just jokes bro, don't take it personally bro."
      I was never good enough to get anywhere competitively at Smash Bros, but one day I got the same treatment from people I thought were good friends. I decided then and there I simply didn't have it in me to keep pushing my skills forward and putting up with that level of bullshit from a "community", and stepped away from the game permanently. This is why I will always, always have respect for players like ZeRo and HBox, because they had the mental fortitude to weather a storm driven by people who would mostly crumble under that same pressure, and succeed where the vast majority of us would or have failed.

    I actually got to meet Hungrybox at a tournament, the feeling was surreal. I asked him if he was down for a match, and he just glared at me. I shouldn't even have asked him in the first place, he obviously had places to go. But then he spoke to me. "The game has already ended." I was confused, but then he jumped up into the air and then landed on me, rolling himself into a ball then proceeding to drill-rest me, sending me flying outside the venue.
    Such a great dude, love that guy.

    The thing I love most about HBOX, besides his hustle, is that his mom is on Twitter hyping him up after each of his tweets. Whether hes just posting a meme, or venting frustration, she's there for him. She even ended up in that Campbell's Soup ad with him.
    As someone who was raised by a loving single mother, that hits me right in the momma's boy feels.
    My mom is really great, best person I know personally, But HBOX might have the GOAT of mothers supporting him! He's had a rough life, but at least he had a mom that believed in him.
    It's so fucking wholesome!

He was right to correct some imprecisions in the documentary that were even unfairly misrepresenting his own career - especially when this doc has over a million views and has the power to set the narrative. He never really criticized or even talked much about Hbox as a person. He's allowed to have his own opinions on whether a character changes the meta for the worse. Hbox himself regularly does the very same thing with ultimate Sonic, and that's ok.

I was so pissed off at these people for saying the kid is "unprofessional" and "rude" to the other kid, even though the two are friends and I would do the same if I won a game tournament.
    People putting down others achievements just because they dont like them just makes me pissed off. There is another instance of this, such as Tyler1 hitting challenger while playing jungle only and people putting him down because they either dont like him or they just didn't want him to succeed. The dude grinded to get where he is and I respect him for backing up his bark with a bite.

      I mean, tyler1 was a toxic asshole... I think people just didnt want to see him succeed because of the harm he and other toxic streamers did to the league community, not because he isnt actually good.
      I think tyler1 and a few other people in the league community are the complete opposite of zero and hungrybox.
      Tyler1 legitimately deserved to be banned, but because he is good at the game, people just gave his awful behavior a pass.
      Now, with that said, he has grown into a respectable icon of the community, and he legit reformed.
      But if he hadnt, if he had kept being a toxic asshole ruining games because he dislikes a player for whatever reason and whatnot, people would still defend him because he is good. He and many others did irreversible harm to the community.
      Zero and hbox were hated for arbitrary reasons. They didnt actually deserve it.
      Tyler1 deserves all the hate he got, even if he wouldnt deserve it now.
      There were also a few cases of popular streamers doing elo boosting or other toxic behavior and they never reformed. Some had to be banned permanently, and the community still defended them because "le troll is funny" or simply because of their high skill.
      Hbox and ZeRo pushed smash beyond its limits and moved it forward, and they were hated because they were gods amongst mere humans.
      Tyler1 and a few other infamous streamers pushed league back and very heavily harmed its community by making awful behavior and mentality common. Some streamers even had blacklists of people you had to troll if you came across in ranked. The backlash in this case is completely justified. And while im glad tyler1 earned a spot in the league community once he reformed and actually brought positivity and inspiration, many other streamers like him never did, and had to be banned instead.
      A little ranty perhaps, but tyler1's story is not at all similar to hbox's or zero's

    You know what's even more crazy? Back when Zero was in the scene he was treated as a bad guy.
    But the moment he comes to play some games everyone's acting like they've been best pals with him and he's never made them mad.
    It's crazy and also disgusting how quick we humans change.
    Sure i assume most of the subs here are the loyal fans but, imagine a world where Zero was still the best and he had his TH-cam channel. Hate comments seeping away at him as he does the grind with the people who do care for him being snuffed out by the loud minority. Speaking of which...
    Can i say i hate how our world works with the minority the *Negative* Minority being so loud? You could barley do any wrong and someone is out to diss and harass you for just existing. It legit sickens me that as humans bad news sells. If we are not entertained by what's on screen whatever effort and skill the other player is doing is casted aside. It's just sad and tbh it won't ever die.

    Hbox seems to be a pretty nice guy, I had heard of the drama going around with him and decided to find out what all the fuss was about by visiting his channel and seeing how he reacts to losses and stuff like that. Well here's what I think.
    Hbox isn't that bad! He's very energetic and honestly really fun to watch. I don't blame him for being angry since obviously there's a ton of pressure to perform well when thousands of people are watching. I've never met him personally but from my perspective he seems very grateful for his fanbase and just overall a very happy and caring person. I genuinely don't understand why people hate on successful people just because they aren't "cool" or don't play a "sick" character. It's so dumb to me. That's just like saying that just because I like Star Wars, I'm garbage and a mean person, even of you haven't met me.

      @Charlie Botterell Well, this video is about competitive context and competitive players hated because of their playstyle, like playing Jigglypuff or playing cheesy or boring characters. It's not not about hating them because of things they did in their personal life, or things they said on Skype or Twitter, it's super easy to confuse those 2 different things. Being hated as a player and being hated as a person are 2 different things. Btw Hbox is a great guy. And I can bet Zero is a great guy too tho he was a weirdo in the past.

    When I played melee back when I was really young with my other 3 friends on a couch I used to have so much fun and being introduced to the smash community entertainment side of things made me really excited just to watch. I watch these human robots do things I never even thought possible like for god sakes I was a Mario main back when melee came out and I thought he was the best character, back then we never knew any tech like wavedashing let alone jigglypuffs rest, so the first time I saw hungrybox play was mindboggling. He made my mind explode, here I am thinking "wow look at this idiot play jigglypuff, doesn't he know there are so many better characters?", then he does a rest combo so insanely fast that I didn't even know what happened. He has become my favourite person to watch since first watching him and I didn't even know people hated on him I just assumed everyone else was in awe as I was. In my opinion jigglypuff is sick and the person who plays him is even sicker.

    I actually want to share my own personal experience with being hated in competitive gaming.
    Not for Smash, but for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe tournaments in Las Vegas.. The more I watch videos about controversial players within Smash Bros, the more I start to relate their experience to my own, just on a much smaller scale. I still don't understand part of why the community hated me though. A point mentioned in this video is that a lot of players hate Hbox because he plays a hated character. But in Mario Kart, all characters do the same thing, apart from having different stats, so there's is no way they hated me just because of the character I played. You also mentioned some hate Hbox got for popping off, and I can also relate to this. In one tourney, after I won the first race, I believe what I did, because it was close, was I got up, had I quick little fist pump, and a "yes", and sat back down. Later, someone in their discord mentioned that he was visiting friends in Florida and he showed them that tournament. When I popped off, they asked if I had just one, and he replied, "No, that was just the first race," to which his friends said, "Oh wow, he seems like a real douche." But that's not the case because there's absolutely nothing wrong with popping off, especially after a close match. He also said his wife couldn't stop laughing because she thought it was true. I should also add, they're the parents of one of the younger competitors at the tourneys. So here you have the parents of one of the competitors, calling a 13 year old a douche, because he popped off. Wow. You also mention in this video that pressure kills passion, and I definitely agree with this. The way I was treated by them and the amount of hate that I got definitely played into me eventually quitting those tournaments. On their discord, they always try to shift the blame to me, in pretty much every way. At one point they even asked me to apologize for my actions, even though I hardly ever did anything. I feel like they definitely know what they did, which is why they asked of that, because they didn't want blame on them, so they try to make me take the blame. What they did to me as a player is absolutely ridiculous and I fear they'll do it again to another player that's even better than me. I'm a very optimistic person, I'm not depressed or anything, and there's nothing going on in my personal life that keeps me down. But what if a player goes to those tournaments who's the opposite of me. What if they are depressed, and what if they're being abused in their personal life. They might see those tournaments as an escape, as hope that things can get better, and then the community would do the same thing to that player as they did to me. That could drive their mental state down, and worst case scenario, they would commit suicide. I made a whole video about this and put it on my channel, and I put it in their discord in hopes I could drive it into their heads that what they did to me was wrong. Within just about 4 hours of me putting it in their discord, it got 18 dislikes, which tells me they really didn't learn anything, they're unwilling to accept that it's them and not me, and that they're toxic on a whole other level. One of the players in the discord, one who wasn't there when I competed and didn't know the background of my story, immediately commented on that video "Shut up, nerd." This is absolutely toxic of them, and they don't know it. It makes me worried for young competitors in the future who will go there.

    I love how the camera always auto focuses on his hand but not his face. What's it trying to tell us? Zero is master hand and crazy hand conspiracy confirmed?

      @Luke DeGeorges This comment shouldn't even be made at the first place, no one should hate and harass anyone just because they don't like the way the play a gay ass video game. I know this is a joke but, the reason you made this comment is because he redeemed himself, when he was a pefectly fine dude just like hbox or any other pro smash player.

      At least he pointed out that Leffen redeemed himself instead of just saying, "laughs in Leffen" and nothing more
