That's actually a green yoshi. He's just covered in blood.

dont forget he stole sonics skin for his shoes to be fast
I'm going sto accept that as cannon@@jajajaun

@@chrispham6599hello this is my new account
The year is 20-eggs-eggs.Yoshi is now the best character in the game. aMSa is on his way to win his 27th major, sitting atop winners side of grand finals. Leffen just posted his daily "ban yoshi" tweet. Life is good.
Nice one. Also unban hax. Leffen and the community did him super dirty
@@tannerhagen3881 no ☺️
@@tannerhagen3881 forreal? is hax banned from entering melee?
@@user-qh5mz6ik6u go to hell
@@MrShadow1995. He’s unban to enter locals but not big majors yet
Even mang0’s mom tweeted “let amsa have it” after winners finals 😂😂😂. That’s traitorous but also goes to show how everyone was rly rooting for amsa
Bro that’s hilarious
aMSa deserved this more than anybody else in the planet
that means “beat amsa”. when you say “let him have it” it means give them your best
@@drummersnare6276 aMSa went on to win other 2 major tournament that same year. Tournaments in which Mang0 participated. Did he (and other players) also "let him have" those?
Dude, this japanese guy made yoshi viable, this is the reality we are currently living in. It is completely wild, but it is true
I dont think you understood his comment, he was saying that it meant to give him his best (try his hardest) to actually win@@sebastiangudino9377
Toph screaming: AMSA DID IT! Had so much emotion I felt it in my chest. What a tourney this was. Melee forever
toph saying that is embedded in my brain forever, i think about it all the time
@@robbyz512 It’s pretty special. First Yoshi supermajor win
one of the best calls in melee history imo
Best commentators ever, so glad they still do it
You can hear a VERY biased GO! right before that, he was so excited that he couldn't keep a neutral stance as a commentator
History has been made. The facts:
• 21 years into a developed meta
• Facing some of the toughest opposition you could expect
• Didn't drop a set
• Yoshi
• 20-eggs-eggs
oldest person to ever win a supermajor!
@@verbosed Interesting.
Quote, "I like all of matches cuz I can use Yoshi".
- cant even jump out of shield
"I feel I still have some matches to play" that comment got me. Up to this point, tournaments weren't over for aMSa until he lost. This is the first time one's over with a victory for him.
well put
Well put indeed
Ran thru the tape
So true !
"Already seeking the next challenge, ceremony means nothing to him."
Credit to Mango for the honestly heartwarming congrats. He was obviously super disappointed but then puts his own feelings aside to give amsa a hug and a light shoulder massage.
He knew it what it took for amsa to get there. So happy to see Mango clear some clouds so that amsa could have his day in the sun.
After burying his controller like it was a DK side-b, yes, he did. God that was hilarious, but glad to watch it end like that.
It's a Yoshi and aMsa. How could you be mad? It was a win well earned and Mango knew that.
Mang0 has been here for, and seen aMSa's rise. He was there the day he beat M2K. And he was there when he won a super major. aMSa earned that win, and everyone's seen it
I actually cried a little watching this live. Nobody deserves this win as much as he does.
It's like Axe's pika win in summit 8 all over again
@@mellowsisco MORTALITY ARE YOU WATCHING? is etched in my brain, now a Yoshi making Mango smash his controller on the ground will as well
bruh it feel like mango gave up at the end? why he doing random fire fox :/ I was so hype until I heard the commentator be like "he never misses those" lmao then mango doin random fire fox. The first few games looked real af but towards the end idk why it seems like mango was giving up or maybe he was really just losing and knew he couldnt win? but the commentators not calling out the bs fire foxes is what really got me thinking this shi was rigged for amsa.. smh. I love amsa just feeling weird about this one.
@@lokedoutphiend6512 you're thinking too much homie.
I teared up when Axe won as well, but this was even more emotional. Amsa will be forever remembered as the essence of pure dedication.
actually made me tear up a little, this man has made history in a way that no one im this game has before
same holy shit
a yoshi and a pikachu have won big tournaments before a sheik has which is crazy to me! jmook been lookin like he could take one all year!
I thought Axe's summit couldnt be surpassed but this give that a run for its money.
@@ianalvarez7156 Plup won SWT tho
@@FunAndInteractive plup went fox vs pipsqueak at SWT, they mean solo sheik
19:22 Is nobody going to mention how PERFECTLY the stage's background synced to the pace of the fight here? It changes exactly as Mango's up air whiffs and aMSa starts regaining momentum. It's as if the game itself was choreographing this legendary moment!
19:42 the crowd screaming 'YES!!!' as amsa pops off has got to be the hypest thing I've heard in a long time
First time I'd ever seen a crowd cheering against Mang0, as well as the loudest Smash crowd I've ever been in. It was insane.
@@kaded_ I last time I have seen the crowd going against Mang0 is either when he is overseas or against aMSa in the past.
9:02
Toph: "Can Mang0 win?"
Scar: "NO!"
You know you've made a statement as a player when even *Bobby Scar* doesn't think Mang0 can win.
scar and toph are legendary on commentary lmao, love them
Tell me again that scar and toph don't just write the script for melee with tafo 💀😂 man's willed it into existence with his blessing to amsa 😂
aMSa beating M2K at kings of Cali 4 was what got me into smash so I love to see this for him
Scar acknowledging that set was great. All the doubt before that set was blown away and changed the perception and history of character forever.
that Kings of Cali 4 set was so damn good
Amsa 🥰
SO ICONIC, even had an animation made based off it. Now this...Melee forever...
@@mrm64 What animation?
I don't watch Melee often but I always loved watching aMSa's Yoshi. Moments like this remind us all that almost anything can be done with enough effort. Just the fact that this Gamecube game is getting moments like this in 2022 is insane by itself.

Never thought id see u here
It’s not just a GameCube game. It’s melee baby LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Just wanna add that Scar's call of "It's Over, It's Over" and Toph's "Amsa did it, Amsa did it" is one of the greatest calls in e sports history.
I mean if thats your opinion i respect it. Personally ive watched quite a few esports and that call wasnt anything super crazy, but Amsa himself made this amazing moment.
@@wattboat 🤓 "personally I've watched quite a bit of esports" 🤓
Would love to hear some more hype commentator moments as I'm sure they're fire, but this certianly ranks up there. The history that this set has is incredible. Scar and Tophs background with both Amsa and Mango makes the calls so much more important. The fact that they commentated sets all along Amsas career like his first upset of M2K in 2014 at Kings of Cali 4. And seeing Amsa on this long long road to beat the best melee player and win a supermajor... The raw emotion in their casting is fantastic and if you don't think it's one of the best calls because of that then I'd love to hear what is because it's gotta be earth shattering
@@ImTotallyTechyweren’t lovage and scar the commentators of m2k vs amsa?
That final string from aMSa was legendary. Really goes to show just how well he can capitalize off of a single mistake from an opponent. What a fantastic way to win his first supermajor, congrats aMSa!
For real, Mango gritting back to tie it, takes the first 50% in the last stock, sudden death situation... then aMSa with the cleanest combo to finish him off, 0 to death. Wow. Insane.
that final parry is iconic
my man bet his fucking soul that he would land that parry, heart of a champion
This ain’t ultimate
@@Vuden13 yoshi had parry before ult came out bro 😭😭
@@Sagragoth not to take away anything from Amsa, but Mang0 did firefox into him multiple times that game.
Evo Moment #37 and then decades later The Big House Moment #10
An all time moment, not just in Smash, but in fighting games ever.
And truly, there is so much more Melee to be played.
Smash is not a fighting game.
@@MiscFightVids he’s right, it’s clearly a shooter. You can see the Halo influence.
@eric Spencer he said "an all time" not "the greatest ever"
@@MiscFightVids Hi, excuse me, I was just wondering... who the fuck asked?
@@MiscFightVids i forgot it was an RTS game, LMAO, i'm dumb
When I saw aMSa play back in the days, I thought he was too good to not eventually switch to a better character. I'm extremely happy he totally shattered my expectations by instead pushing his own character to absolute perfection. What a legend.
It cannot be stated enough how impressive it is that aMSa won not just a smaller major or an invitational major, but a full-on, open bracket supermajor. Massive congratulations, I am happy to have been a part of his historic bracket run ROFL
What precisely is an open bracket tournament?
@@PhilipWester Open bracket means that anyone is allowed to enter. It is the opposite of an invitational, such as Summit
@@SSB_Seal Aaah, thanks.
Wait you were in the bracket?
@@lukethekuya Yes, I played aMSa in bracket at this tournament. I was his first opponent in R2 after making it out of pools
At double down aMSa was in the exact same position, first set of grand finals last stock on fd against a fox and he lost. But now he rises and claims a historic win. This set will not be forgotten.
This time, Amsa was coming from Winners tho, which is almost more impressive than the ultimate outcome.
Lost off of an SD, too. People say that Fox is the hardest character to play, but when you see how the SLIGHTEST flub on a routine technique can cause Yoshi to die at zero, that seems pretty absurd.
@@Scorpio3002 ledgedashes?
He clutched it with a sick combo too
@@Scorpio3002 From what I see most ppl consider Falco and Yoshi to be harder than Fox
So many of us believed that aMSa could and would do it eventually. But no one believed as much as he did himself. The determination and hard work of this man is legendary. Congratulations aMSa!
For real, man. You noticed the slow and steady progression. 5 years ago it was a big accomplishment if he made top 8.
And not a soul would have predicted that it would come against Mang0 from winners.
Beautifully put. He believed in himself. He had a singular vision and he achieved it. We could all learn from that.
This. Probably one of the only times Mango will ever enter GF not being the fan favorite. This is crazy, I love seeing this.
@@Rpodnee I think the lesson is that amsa is just different. believing in yourself even if no one else does, makes you foolish in the west.
Above all else, the thing I hope people talk about is aMSa’s demeanor. You would never expect this person who is SO kind and SO genuine to be so ruthless on the sticks 😂 He’s devoted his entire self into this game and I’m so so happy to see it pay off. You deserve this, king!!!
Like a samurai, calm on the normal but once the battle starts his entire being becomes a beast lol
That’s what I always loved about competitive sports: the quiet and humble talent. People who let their actions speak for them, and don’t showboat. Amsa is so easy to cheer on and get excited for because he’s so professional and humble. I love how he managed to stay positive despite many heartbreaks. He kept grinding and left his name in the record books.
本当にaMSaさんはかっこいい。
自分の信じ続けたキャラを使い続け、今日ついに優勝した。この決して諦めない姿勢が、彼が日本のみならず海外にも愛されている理由だと思う。本当におめでとう🎉
10年以上頑張り続けたのが本当凄すぎる・・・
We love aMSa! We cheered for him as he fought mang0, the American champ. aMSa worked hard to win with his Yoshi.
whatever this means in english lol
i agree
idk if you're a native speaker or a student, but I'm curious, isn't "kakkoi" specifically for cool *looking*? Like it specifically means stylish from my understanding. However, if you are really a native speaker, please let me know so I can correct my own error here.
One of the greatest sets of all time, we will look back upon this moment for literal decades to come
So glad to have Scar and Toph on the commentary. So glad the Big House organizers mic’s up the crowd.
Just a fantastic experience as a Melee fan, a perfect end to a legendary tournament.
True... especially since this is the first super major that a solo yoshi has won ever which is amazing and to think that this game keeps evolving and maybe eventually we'll see a luigi or dr.mario win a super major at some point with enough dedication
As opposed to illiteral decades?
@@ori.g4mi As opposed to exaggerated use of the word "decades" you ape.
I have been waiting 8 years ever since Kings of Cali 4 for aMSa to win a major, let alone potentially the most stacked tournament of all time.
Truly the best timeline rn
Never knew you were a melee fan
I've been waiting since Apex 2014
I can't believe it's really been 8 years damn
This feels like Earnhardt winning the Daytona 500 in 98 after 20 years of racing, aMSa has trascended as a legend after all those years of work and perseverance, ever loyal to Yoshi in any game he plays. What a story
@@AgentLazarus Dale was such a legend back in his hay day. The man died while letting his teammates, and Son, win 1st, and 2nd place, and he was holding off the guys in 4th-5th...
"20 years of trying, 20 years of frustration" fits both pretty well.
@@jleif7736legend
I keep coming back to this just to watch Amsa's interview. This was genuinely wholesome and you can just see how proud Toph is looking at Amsa.
His scream; "AMSA DID IT!!" They're supposed to be unbiased, but the pure emotion coming out of that. Man. So good lol
how is that biased, he did it
@@marko6932because the tone made it seem like he was cheering for him, rooting for him. That’s how
I'm speechless 😶 not only did he win. He made it look so good wit a sick parry zero to death combo
Yeah the composure to pull that off on the verge of getting reverse swept on the day you’ve been working for for 10 plus years. Amazing
Boy that was crazy how was that possible mind fucked
My heart broke when I saw amsa collapse after game 2. Thought he was gonna get locked in his own head and choke it all away. I feel like game 5 was him leveling up his mental. Got it together and finished the job. So unbelievably happy for this guy. No one deserves a supermajor win more than him.
Also pretty difficult feat facing Mango in GFs and being the fan favorite. Everyone was waiting for this.
There was no way this was ending on anything other than a game 5 last stock.
@@ZumoDePapaya lol if it went game 10 last stock you would’ve said there’s no way this wouldn’t end with game 10 last stock
Amsa nearly 3-0ed ya boi
I bet he collapsed because his heart was probably beating at the rate of gunfire
@@shinipede3998 dude both of them lol, incredibly high pressure situation to be in for sure. Although Mango is used to this and was surely in his comfort zone here
He didn't collapse? He just bent over to pick up his drink?
Dude i've been watching melee for 8+ years and still this groundbreaking shit can happen. Melee is sick. I cannot believe this actually happened but at the same time i can totally believe this happened. What a moment this is. I am so happy for aMSa and so happy for Melee. This game will never die people. The chills going down my spine say it all. Enjoy this moment people, there is so much more to come!
And Mang0 wasn't even playing bad. I just cannot believe my eyes. aMSa is the man and I'm so happy that I've witnessed this moment. I have no words
It's like AxE Pikachu at summit, Melee is a legendary game
the depth of every matchup is incredible, there will always be more melee to be played
16 years deep here, and this is just freaking amazing. Still can't believe a YOSHI won a super major...
There is still so much Melee to be played :')
It cannot be overstated how legendary this is from Amsa. And to win it like he did: the insane variety in the way he took stocks, somehow converting off of every egg hit, the parries, the use of the double jump armor. It was all just oozing with style. This was melee genius and it will go down in history. Congratulations Amsa!!
"Everytime that I feel good... like I'm moving well and my tech skill is better...I feel, when I'm playing the game, [I'm] having fun and enjoying". Man what a beautiful quote.
Putting this on a sticky note on my second monitor to remind myself what gaming is about. Winning is good, but enjoying the game is so much more fulfilling
raw talent + insane effort + pure, internal enjoyment for the play = a hero of sport
The little Red Yoshi who could. Seeing aMSa's journey over the years has been an absolute treat. Good stuff!
A year and a half later and I am still obsessed with that final combo aMSa did. Something about it is just the perfect combo to me as a relatively new melee fan, and like..... it feels so fitting that that's how he got his win. That's like the storybook finale almost. Except of course it isn't the finale at all, at least not as far as aMSa, Mang0, or melee is concerned
Absolutely legendary. I have so much respect for Amsa being a character loyalist, playing a “low tier” and it finally paid off. With all the odds against him, Amsa won against Mango TWICE (one of the hardest players to beat especially when he got momentum like he did in the last few games) with Yoshi who has a shorter grab than Marth & can't even jump out of shield! Amsa is an inspiration and prime example of how you can achieve your goals if you work hard enough. he's one of the greatest competitors out there, like Toph said in the post game interview. So happy for AMSA
Glad I didn't need to watch the set to find out what happened homie, thanks for that
@@TheEveryDayVideo24 bruh don’t go into the comments of a grand finals super major tournament video if you don’t want to get spoiled 💀 everyone is commenting about how Amsa won because what he did is amazing, come on now
@@TheEveryDayVideo24 Yet you felt the need to read the comments before watching.
It's no less impressive, but Yoshi is a mid tier.
@@TheEveryDayVideo24 Yeah, how dare the comments discuss what happened in the video. What did you think would happen?
It's 2022 and this man made me, a grown man, cry. Good stuff, AMSA, you deserve every this in every single way!
Who else is cutting onions here????
No one cares if you’re a grown man stfu
27:20 there's something in the way Toph stands, can't wait to congratulate his friend, but has to, then readjusts his shirt and breathes out, that I find touching. All that just to give a massive bro hug. You can feel the pure excitement and joy he has for his friend.
What a show this match was, couldn't see this live but I watched a couple minutes of Mango's gameplay prior to that match, I was saying "Yeah he's feeling it, he's winning the Big House". But Amsa the red Yoshi made it, and from winners too. What a player, seriously... I am genuinely happy this is how it turned out, we all knew it was going to happen one day, but it must have been so hard for Amsa to keep believing and working as hard as he did for 10 years.
Congratulations Amsa
I don't follow competitive play, I just randomly clicked this and it was such an epic match. One of the best sporting events I have ever watched. Wow.
If you wanna see something similar, Axe vs Wizzrobe Summit grandfinals 3 years ago is something else.
Next watch Zain vs Mang0 Summit 11. That's a legendary set as well!
aMSa has revived this game
After 1 decade, defeat after defeat. Amsa finally wins not only a major but one of the most difficult super majors of all time melee, which makes the victory way more satisfying than ever. I’m glad to live in the universe where amsa wins a major and I think everybody else in the community is proud of the result too. Amsa defeating a mang0 with Momentum on his side is absolutely hard to do and Is insane that it happened. A huge win for all of us indeed.
Most difficult super major of all time 😂 niggas be wilin
@@sabotagefate69 nah fr leffen GOML 2016 smokes BH10, 4 gods prime gods in a row?
edit: HOWEVER, that does NOT take away from aMSas win here
@@trademarked2476 it’s one of the most difficult melee majors to win
One of the most important smash sets of all time
The fact that Melee's meta has been untouched for 21 years, only for someone to come in and play against the meta and win a tournament is incredible.
There really is something to be said about letting meta games sit and not patching games. Moments like this happen. I love seeing someone come in with their favourite character and master it in a way no one else can to completely take a scene by storm.
Truly historic.
Hungryboxes puff did stir up the meta though you must admit
@@sparkeee3 yeah i wouldn't say "untouched" since puff and marth having REALLY GOOD top players made people try to figure out how to beat them. i get what they mean tho
And not just a tournament, arguably the hardest tournament in Melee history
@@kittyratrawr by "untouched" I more mean that there weren't patches to change the game or characters. They just let the game sit in the balance they created from release.
That is why Yoshi dominating a tournament is incredible. He wasn't buffed, he didn't get fun new stats, he was just the same Yoshi he always was. But this time someone mastered him. Someone understood his mechanics more than anyone else, and learned how to truly use that to their advantage. That is why leaving a metagame to just simmer and not patching anything can be incredibly beneficial to a metagame. Players will find ways to change the game themselves.
@@agent00puffball Lets be clear, The fact is took *decades* for that and players inarguably mastering once-bottom tiers should inform that this is *not* proof of no-patches being beneficial to the metagame. Because when the game is *genuinely* imbalanced like Melee, until and unless *every single character* can get a win like this, you cannot seriously argue we need the game like this. There is no serious suggestion that Yoshi is a good character. aMSa is just that good a player.
Tell me with a straight face Melee wouldn't have benefited from at least bug-fixes and repairing lost frame data on *some* of its characters.
Truly historic and a well deserved win from AMSA. Scar and Toph are so legendary and do such an incredible job capturing the magnitude and gravity of this victory. The Commentary at 19:32 to the end, is high octane, Pure adrenaline, red bull fuled hype. When they both yell "DOWN SMASH" LOOK AT IT, LOOK AT IT, ITS OVER, AMSA DID IT, AMSA DID IT!" It'll be hard not getting emotional looking back on this.
Was looking for this comment. Absolutely peak commentary, I only casually follow the melee scene and this commentary got me as hype as they are
@@tmujir955 smash commentary can be as hype as the matches.
Look up,
"OH NO, FOR LEFFEN!"
aMSa's first upset over a god is what got me watching this game as a spectator of an esport.
Ever since then, the one constant in what keeps bringing me back to watch tournaments is hoping to witness aMSa bring it all home.
There are no words to describe how happy I am to have seen it live. The most inspirational player in the game by far.
20EggsEggs is finally here.
This is so huge for Amsa. Finally winning his first major. I can't imagine how well he's feeling. I bet the prize winnings also got to feel good too since he's coming from Japan where there is no prize monies allowed.
to be fair he's been placing since 2014, i doubt this is his first experience walking home with a check. that said, he is starting to get into making this a career. everyone make sure to follow this man on twitch and support the only one who has ever pushed yoshi to the highest tiers of the game.
お金よりも功績なんだよこの舞台に立つ者たちは
Doesnt amsa lives on Canadá?
@@jasonlobo2350 He just moved, it's extremely recent ^^
No prize money in Japan?! what?? why? 😱
I actually cried when he won. I love melee. Thank you to everyone who has made this game and culture feel like home. A home that I refuse to give up on.
Yeah that Kings of Cali 4 set with M2K was the first time I was ever exposed to competitive Melee and I instantly fell in love. Hearing Scar describe Mew2King as the absolute best in the game, playing the best characters, and against a character that was terrible sounded boring and brutal to watch... but then he went and DID IT. And the entire set was exhilarating, every second. aMSa of course has been my favorite Melee player ever since, and after rooting for him so many years, seeing him finally, FINALLY showing everyone that he IS one of the best legit made me cry
21:11 Keep coming back to this video for the commentary, and this is probably my favorite part. Scar reminds us that aMSa won from winners, and Toph loses the ability to speak coherently out of sheer excitement. Such charismatic personalities :)
10 YEARS OF PERSEVERANCE, THE RED YOSHI CLAIMS THE THRONE THROUGH SHEER WILL.
A truly legendary moment in Melee history. Congratulations to aMSa for this historic victory, and hope he has more to come. Melee's meta has evolved extraordinarily in just the past 3 years and will only continue to do so moving forward.
This is truly the highest level Melee we've ever witnessed, and so much more that we have yet to see.
I got so emotional with the commentary and the crowd all beyond hyped for aMSa. Truly truly so deserved and the amount of work put in will be remembered honestly for the rest of the game's life. Long live Melee!
I’m extremely late, but this is insane. This is in my opinion one of if not THE most impressive moment in esports history. The fact aMSa did this as his first major win is crazy, and I couldn’t be happier, he deserves it. He’s such a wholesome guy, and there is a reason his opponents always have a smile even when they lose. aMSa is basically a melee god at this point.
He's surpassed a god, he's a legend. Gods rise and fall, but legends inspire... legends are NEVER forgotten.
It's not his first major it's his first major win. The big house was the biggest melee tourney ever at the time so they were just making clear how big of an accomplishment this is. It's not just him winning the big house which is huge it's also a guy who's never won a major doing it.
While watching this live, I got so many flashbacks to one of the first high-level sets I ever watched when I first got interested in learning about competitive Melee; Apex 2015 Losers Quarters Mang0 vs. aMSa. I could not believe my eyes seeing Yoshi going toe to toe with such a high level Fox.
Nearly 8 years since Apex 2015, and history gets written yet again. This game never ceases to amaze. 20EggsEggs. Long live Melee, this game is so sick.
FR
I don't remember ever being this stressed/excited when watching anything EVER. I so so wanted aMSa to get the W, and so incredibly happy for him that he got it. His gameplay was another level, his punishes were those of a champ. Huuuuge congrats to aMSa, and good luck for your next goal: being ranked #1, no kess. GIGACHAD
8:16 for a YOOOOSHIIIIIII. A YOOOOOOSHIIIIII!!!!!
The way he says that kills me.
Congrats to aMSa, that Yoshi is so crazy to watch. This and Axe winning Summit are the best moments.
Has to be one of the most insane stories of resilience in the face of years of doubt, defeat, and a disbelief he could do it. It's such an inspiring story that anybody can learn from and apply to their life, let alone smash. Truly an inspiration. For years, he believed in himself and his decision to play Yoshi, and it finally payed off. The feeling he must have felt in those moments after the win must have been legendary. Gives me goosebumps.
Dude I was SHOUTING in my room, this was such a hype set, I'm so happy for aMSa, ever since Summit 11 I was just waiting for the win to come but Mango looked goddamn inevitable, that Game 5 was crazy!
I'm really happy for Amsa. I never wanted him to be in the "Best to never win a super major" conversation. He deserved better and he finally broke through today
Now he is “Only Yoshi to ever win a Supermajor”, a much better title that he will likely keep for life
Can you guys imagine a world where Amsas next goal is realized? Where the number 1 world rank is filled by a Yoshi player?
I think it's an interesting progression, we've hit this skill ceiling and rut in competitive play as to where a top level player using a less capable Character is actually a pretty major curve ball. No one is a good enough yoshi player to help prepare someone to play against a top level yoshi. Some of those combos were just wacky they had weird angles and timing
@@doggodoggo3000 Thats so true actually. I wonder what AMSAs personal feelings are on that topic? He makes yoshi tutorial content on his channel, too. Maybe 20YY is the next major era of melee.
He was only one away this year
Not only was he composed in victory, but also humble in that he now understands that the playing field is going to catch up to him much more again, i.e he has to continue working hard to keep his place at the top. Incredible mindset to adhere to, let alone talk about with such confidence. This is a man who has silently trained and steeled himself for years until he reached the summit, and I don't think there's anything more respectable than that
Very well said
I was a Yoshi player back in Smash 4 and remembered thinking that it was cool that Yoshi was finally 'viable.' He was allegedly a tournament threat in early Ultimate too, but a major win just never happened for either game. The closest was Kameme's pocket Yoshi at Evo. For a Yoshi to finally win a supermajor, but it to be in my childhood game, Melee, where I ruled out the possibility years ago, sounds so crazy and unreal right now. So happy for aMSa
Yoshi has won an ultimate major, you just need to go to japan. Seriously check out yoshidora, he's one of the only people who can consistently beat acola.
Wizzrobe won a major as Yoshi in Smash 64 iirc-but yeah, this win is historic. Melee is much more developed as a meta and a sight more competitive. This win is absolutely massive.
@@Saltyoven Don't really watch Japanese tournaments, but fair. Just seems the level of competition while high, isn't the same. Still sure it's an amazing achievement!
@@crazycoolkids00 Yeah I forgot about 64, to be honest. It definitely feels more expected in 64 though with the roster being smaller. Really just incredible considering how much of an uphill battle this seemed to be for Melee Yoshi.
@@Saltyoven Regardless, this is Yoshi's first SUPERmajor win, so aMSa still made history
For the first time in 20 years we see Yoshi winning a major.
20 fucking YEARS!! MELEE TRULY LIVES FOREVER
AMSA YOU LEGEND
Melee top 100:
Nearly half fast fallers, half anything else
- One Pikachu
- One Yoshi
- Both top 10
Yoshi on the map again and again for years, now people need to figure out how to play this character and hopefully we can see newer and older players making runs with Yoshi too. Though of course, aMSa and Axe are built different than the average players, so massive massive congrats to aMSa for his win! Looking forward to more as always!
4:40 I swear, I never get tired of seeing aMSa just nail those egg throws man, that gets me hyped every time.
no one deserved it more than amsa, also very happy mang0 outperformed his seed so much. couldn't have asked for a better grand finals, and top 8 & 24 for that matter
I don't play this game but I do watch tournaments and follow the player stories. aMSa's always a joy to watch as the practically lone Yoshi player, and him being so close to finally winning a major had me watching this set with so much anticipation and emotion. aMSa played just amazingly, and Mang0 definitely didn't just give it to him either. It was so amazing watching this live; I can only imagine what it was like in the venue.
"Every time when I feel good and I'm moving well, my tech skill is better... that kind of feeling when I'm playing the game I'm having fun."
- aMSa, the GOAT Yoshi
this tournament was so fucking brilliant, amsa deserved it more than anyone else. the pop off and crowd cheer are so poweful but honestly what seals the moment in for me most is mang0s controller throw at the end where you can just see his emotions explode and how much the match meant for him. insane.
This is up there with Summit 11 grand finals for my all-time favorite sets. I’ll be rewatching this for years to come. Great job to both competitors!
such a humble guy. if i won a tournament like this in such a legendary fashion, especially if i'd been working on it as long as amsa has, id be inconsolably sobbing on the floor hbox style.
彼よりこの優勝を値してる人はない。本当におめでとうございます！🎉
Game 5 really was the Final Destination.
I thought amsa was gonna lose it on final destination, he made such heavy use of platforms and there are none in fd. Great playing on both sides just wow
@@doggodoggo3000 "FD is just one big platform" hehe
No nerves from this guy, man absolutely deserves this title
I love how you can see the excitement and happiness, genuinely on Scar's face. Wholesome.
19:51 i think its my first time seeing mang0 face desk + smash controller like that. that tells me he really didnt play amsa lightly as a friend but a real-strong opponent and went all out on him. such historic set. awesome + congrats for both players
21:17 good comment
What an absolute banger of a set. Mang0 was playing so hot too, makes this win all the more deserved. What a feat. Can't wait for more of this kind of melee
those yoshi combos hit like a brick, this was a good ass fight
I cried. He did it in a tournament with the top 15 players present...
Ive seen this too many times to count and that last stock brings me to tears each time without fail. Legendary.
地味に最後のヨッシーの勝利ポーズが瞬獄殺なのが最高
honestly i will remember this set till the day I die
This Grand Finals makes my heart warm. So much melee left to play
"I feel like I have more sets left to play." You do, Amsa. Keep playing this game and making it great for all of us. For anyone who's been watching the game forever and for who is seeing it for the first time, Amsa is an inspiration.
The Yoshis are coming in droves
Legit crying. I'm so proud of you Amsa you are an amazing player and an amazing person. You deserve the win
A lot of people talking about aMSa winning his first major and first super major at the same time, talking about how he parried the Fox Up-B into the opening that won the game, and talking about Yoshi finally having a major tournament win. HOWEVER, can we talk about how aMSa took Mang0's last stock as a 0 to death with a parry mixed in? There is way too much to talk about in this set. So insane, down to every interaction between these two players and their characters. Having to defeat Mang0 TWICE in the same tournament to win? Talk about absolutely scary no matter who you are.
Congratulations aMSa!!
It's been so sick seeing the yoshi master climb in tournament placings this year, from fifth to third now first for the first time ever. Such a sick first tourney win too!
おめでとうございます！ !
This man’s mental game is untouchable. Seeing him evolve as a player for so long is amazing. Can’t wait to see aMSa more
This is such a win for melee as a whole. People have been saying for years how good it would be for the overall meta for Yoshi to win a major. And for amsa to win THIS one, where everyone was playing out of their damn minds, is just astonishing.
I watch this set whenever I want my day to start off good, or if I wanna be in a good mood. This really shows you can do anything you put your mind too, no matter how long that it takes. What an amazing journey, that’s still going
Still making me cry to this day. What an awesome match, extraordinary even.
The mad man did it! aMSa has been my favorite Melee player ever since the M2K set in Kings of Cali 4. I honestly teared up when he finally won today. After watching him get so close so many times it feels sureal to finally see him win a major. And what a major to win.
The raw emotion in Toph's voice as he's screaming aMSa did it
I love how at 19:30, the sky changes to dark the moment AMSa starts the game-winning combo
The single most impressive tournament victory in the history of the game.
Double Down: We saw him go down
TBH 10: We saw him go out BIG
Congrats to the well deserved win AMSA!!
The win in game 5, of the hardest tournament to date, against a person who is infamous for coming back from the losers bracket, on final destination, each on your final stock, and to win the first major tournament, using a YOSHI...
This was super poetic and the most satisfying thing I have ever seen in melee.
I just want to say, on top of everything and this INSANE accomplishment for aMSa... his English has become so good now, it's crazy just how much he is improving in every way
Winning the most stacked Super Major, with many of the top players playig out of their minds (Mango was shitting on everyone until he faced Amsa, IBDW was cracked af, Zain was looking like he wanted it so badly, and Jmook was doing Jmook things), playing a mid tier, and beating the two last active gods, who still are pretty much the gatekeepers of Melee's top echelon? All the ingredients for what I would consider one of the best tournaments ever played.
In the relatively short time I've been watching Melee tournaments live, I've seen a Falcon, a Pikachu, and a Yoshi taking the W. What a thing of beauty Melee is.
i literally could not have asked for anything more from my first big house than amsa winning the entire event lmfao im so happy for him man, top 8 was incredible and this set was the perfect ending to it all
melee is so sick :)
Just reporting in as a casual player of melee since 2008-ish and someone who has enjoyed watching tournaments regularly since 2012...its so insane to see aMSa win and see Yoshi vindicated as a viable winner of a supermajor. It just shows there's still SO much Melee to play after all this time, it's incredible. Congrats aMSa!!!!!!!
I cannot remember the last time any melee set was on trending amsas a fucking goat
I can't fucking believe it. What a fucking legend. He's cemented his legacy in the annals of the game.
