Top 10 Greatest EVO Melee Moments - Super Smash Bros

It was recently announced that Melee would NOT be at EVO 2019, so in remembrance of Melee at EVO, I've decided to compile the 10 greatest Melee moments at EVO!
While Melee at EVO has had some controversial moments, it still has a fantastic history at EVO, and I really hope it returns someday.
Thanks for watching!

If you're interested in the backstory of some of these clips, here is a description/explanation of every clip (Spoilers!):

10: Plup makes a massive upset on Leffen with Samus at EVO 2015

9: S2J goes for the suicide stomp on Westballz at EVO 2016, and then later beats him 2-0 with a double knee read, making S2J the highest placing Falcon in EVO's history (5th)

8: ChuDat makes a 2-stock sopo comeback on HugS on his last stock of the last game to secure his place in top 8 at EVO 2015

7: Swedish Delight makes a legendary upset on Armada at EVO 2018, becoming the first player since Silentspectre in 2010 outside of the top 6 to beat Armada in a set

6: Armada takes the set 3-2 over Hungrybox to secure his first ever EVO win at EVO 2015

5: Leffen makes an incredibly dominant run at EVO 2018, beating Hungrybox 2-1, and then beating Plup and Armada without dropping a game to win his first EVO in spectacular fashion

4: In one of the most legendary moments in Melee history, Axe 4-stocks Silent Wolf with Pikachu in their final game at EVO 2014, taking all of his stocks in less than a minute

3: Wobbles makes the greatest dark horse run in Melee's history at EVO 2013, beating Mango, PPMD, and Hungrybox until finally falling to Mango in grand finals to get 2nd place

2: Hungrybox makes the clutchest losers run of all time at EVO 2016, clutching out game after game, taking out Mango, Plup, and finally Armada in a grueling 10-game set to win his first EVO

1: Mango makes one of the most legendary losers runs of all time at EVO 2013, after losing early to Wobbles, he tears through the losers bracket, taking out PPMD, Armada, and Hungrybox all without losing a single game, until finally beating Wobbles in Grand Finals 6-1 to win the first EVO Melee event since 2007

I love Melee so much <3 I don't plan to stop playing anytime soon

[glue]

Axe better get SilentWolf something for his birthday every year for getting him featured in every combo video ever

[rat]

Be Hugo:

- Losing a set he should've won gets highlighted
- Getting Second Place at Evo 2007 is never talked about

Plup’s Samus destroying Leffen never gets old.



Also, throwing your medal into the crowd?
That’s the Mango

[lilboyubertan]

The way D1 and Prog commentated added so much more to that Axe set than people understand. Iconic.

[Pizuzzle]

Melee will live on. It’s not the first time EVO dropped this game, and the community shall stay strong!

[MaxwellKasper]

Don't cry because it's over.

Smile because after years of research I've deduced that Melee isn't a part of the Smash community.

[emmbeesea]

Melee will still live on and prosper despite the recent news. If there's one thing the Melee community is known for, it's passion for making this party game competitive and exciting to play and watch, perhaps the best accident in video game development.

We always have DI.

Thank you for this journey down memory lane GRsmash!

4:19 first time i see Armada showing this much emotion in a while dude, he always had this Isai kind of energy for me

[mookieyomu]

Seeing that much speed after playing 400 hours of ultimate is kind of intimidating.

[worldsboss]

Was genuinely so happy for HBox when he won, you can clearly see how important that victory was to him

[adamice]

Fun fact: leffen has never beaten plup's Samus in a full set. Also where the hell is Chris best vs net1234

[patrickpangilinan]

It saddens me that M2K isn’t on this list

[AxeOverSword]

13:10 Armada telling Mango to "win the tourney" speaks volumes about how much they respect one anothers skill. the lore is real

[littletoast]

Mang0s' neighbor has the t-shirt Mang0 threw into the crowd, if I remember correctly.

[lkb]

That hungrybox moment will be remembered in the smash community forever.

[XMegaman]

I love Ultimate
But nothing will ever beat my love for Melee! It will always be the best!

[Swagner]

“S2J you are out of your mind, this is EVO” some of the plays and commentaries from this video give me chills. Also Hbox is an absolute legend and I love watching Leffen lose to anyone

[emmaxd]

12:07 this still bothers me the way they handed that to him it was like handing shit to someone lol

[garciafever]

Every time I see HungryBox win that EVO tournament, I cry. It's such a heartfelt moment, and hoepuflly one day I can be able to experience that feeling of happiness and success that they've worked very hard to achieve.
