Josh Tusaneza is salt the same as depressed to you, I'm just wondering? I feel like m2k usually isn't salty besides vs ics. I think being depressed isn't being salty - obviously a lot is on the line for these guys and being sad after a loss is just showing your emotions lol. Salty is probably throwing your controller etc. idk I think johns and salt is getting overplayed these days lmao
Josh Tusaneza cant be upset losing to johnny esp when hes playing so well and has never beat m2k hes prob legit happy/proud or w/e about it as a competitor
Super props to Johnny for that win. But I also want to point out a great change in Mew2King's demeanor in the recent years. That insane combo at 11:14 got him laughing. He definitely has much more fun with the game nowadays and he showed no salt when he lost. Don't know if we would've seen that from M2K a few years ago in the same scenario.
Overreacting at its finest? Ice almost reverse 3-0d him after s2j was up 2 stocks game 3 and Ice was up a stock game 5. Imagine how it feels being s2j and knowing you have a track record of completely falling apart and failing to secure career defining upsets and FINALLY pulling in a clutch win to get into top 8 at a major. He was one knee away from 3-0ing armada and then lost the set. Hes been one edgeguard from 3-0ing leffen and lost the set. hes been reverse 3-0d by mang0 and sfat numerous times and has taken numerous great players to last stock game 5 (axe, swedish, m2k several times) only to lose in the most heartbreaking way possible. given the context i would have punched a hole in the crt if i were in his shoes.
SuperPayTV I don't think you realize how much energy and adrenaline is involved in these moments. If your so into a moment that you physically jump out of your seat, that moment will probably last more than 2 seconds.
S2J is a LEGEND!!!! Beating Duck in Winners and then beating SFAT, HugS, Ice, Shroomed, Plup, and Mew2King in Losers is freaking insane; not to mention he's playing falcon!! I watched this live and it was the hypest run I've ever seen in my life. WE LOVE YOU JOHNNY KIM ❤️🔥
What I love about melee so much and what separates it from every other game is its seemingly infinite potential. Let me give you an example. Everyone thought ken was unbeatable, then people like PC, azen, mew2king and mang0 started beating him and today he's 87th in the world(I know he's semi retired but still, prime ken wouldn't hold a candle to today's top 5). We thought mang0 was the best until armada came along. We thought no falcon could beat m2k's sheik until n0ne does it at goml 2016 and then all of a sudden he gets 3-0'd by wizzy's falcon, and now this happens. It's just amazing seeing this game's ceiling grow exponentially even after 16 years. "Impossible is whatever." -KirbyKaze PS, congrats to the winner of the tournament(avoiding saying his name cause spoilers). I'm salty, but he deserved it
OmenOfWar limits are only reached in this game when someone simply doesnt get hit and converts a won exchange in neutral to a kill 100% of the time. No one has gotten even close to the limit yet, and saying all tech had been discovered is like saying you know that there is no more tech to find.
OmenOfWar in 2005 "it's done growing now. Once Ken retires it will die unless some super good players come out of no where and make it relevant again. Most of the characters limits have been reached and most tech skill has been found."
OmenOfWar For someone not in the community you care an awful lot about this old game. We'll continue growing just fine without you. We don't need your toxicity, take it to League/CS GO that you apparently are apart of. Or do they not want to hear your trolling bullshit either?
+OmenOfWar well props for admitting you have no idea what you're talking about, but you still have no idea what you're talking about. You seriously think League of Legends will outlive Melee? You do realize that game is ALREADY dying right? It's player base is on steep decline. CSGO will last a while because it's a good game, but both CSGO and LoL are already dying because they're not unique and are easily replaced by other MOBAS and FPS's... There is no competitor for what Melee offers which is why it will easily outlive both of them.
OmenOfWar Here's the layout you fuckin fraud: There are players like zain who started playing melee as late as 2014 and he is now ranked 66th in the world with notable placements at several recent tournaments. there's Captain faceroll, there's reeve, there's a highly technical fox named Syrox recently making waves who started in 2011. So yes, new players are picking this game up even though it's not as accessible as other esports. I am 18 years old and have only been playing for a year and a half. There's another smash bros documentary coming out that will no doubt inspire yet another generation of noobies like the last documentary in 2013. Currently this game is bigger than it has ever been. New techs and tactics are still being discovered with characters like fox and marth. even when those are all discovered new tactics and ideas will still be formed. There were 7 different characters in top 8 at this tournament, you're telling me they're all already at their limits? Only way this game dies is when people lose interest and that will not happen any time soon. You sure act like you know a lot about melee for someone who doesn't even follow it lmao
Nathan Prindler I've been saying for months that falcon can win a major given the right player is playing him. We've seen m2k and hbox lose to falcons, we've seen armada come one knee away from losing to a falcon, we just need a falcon good enough to take on mang0's falco and leffen's fox and the ancient prophecy will be fulfilled
Such an amazing set. Both were playing very careful neutral yet the craziest interactions happened within it. Johnny showed great recognition of Sheik's hitboxes and area of danger. He spaced really well against tilts and full hop fairs coming from M2K. Also, the consistent SDI ups were slick. Love both of these guys. GGs.
it wasn't on VGBC because the venue had to close before they played their match so the official stream ended. You can watch their match on either Alex19's or Raalts twitch VODs from Saturday night although don't go expecting good quality, but I know they recorded the video on a laptop so I think they should be uploaded officially soon.
I was getting really scared for s2j when he started missing a couple those free grab ledge -> stomp or grab ledge -> knee edgeguards, because I've met mid-level scrub falcons that can hit that edgeguard 100% consistently and it made me think he was choking. Good on him for maintaining his composure.
M2k really enjoys falcon combos, so him losing to johnny while he got styled on multiple times doesn't really upset him. I hardly ever see m2k shake his opponents hand so he def respected this set
Mew2king looked like he was having so much fun this set despite ultimately losing it.
Thats why everyone loves him
@@ricardoludwig4787 thats a kind of rare occurrence though. we often see emo2king when he starts to tilt
I liked that M2k actually shook his hand well and looked like he enjoyed the match. Nothing makes me sadder than when M2k gets salty after a loss.
Josh Tusaneza is salt the same as depressed to you, I'm just wondering? I feel like m2k usually isn't salty besides vs ics. I think being depressed isn't being salty - obviously a lot is on the line for these guys and being sad after a loss is just showing your emotions lol. Salty is probably throwing your controller etc. idk I think johns and salt is getting overplayed these days lmao
Lately from what I have noticed Jason has been looking pretty upset over losses understandably.
Josh Tusaneza cant be upset losing to johnny esp when hes playing so well and has never beat m2k hes prob legit happy/proud or w/e about it as a competitor
Huge m2k fan but still really happy for Jonny
lol m2k's face after combo at 11:14
thaks for pointing out
M2k has beaten him every time but once lol
Raise your chairs for Johnny!
Reapz What no way this isn't a chairity
Reapz im on the toilet!! Someone come help!
Reapz S2J must've truly chairished the moment he won.
BetitoBass did you... No actually that was a good one
Super props to Johnny for that win. But I also want to point out a great change in Mew2King's demeanor in the recent years. That insane combo at 11:14 got him laughing.

After the ultimate pop-off against ice; I really thought s2j was going to destroy the stage or punch Mew2king in the face out of hype lol
Overreacting at its finest? Ice almost reverse 3-0d him after s2j was up 2 stocks game 3 and Ice was up a stock game 5. Imagine how it feels being s2j and knowing you have a track record of completely falling apart and failing to secure career defining upsets and FINALLY pulling in a clutch win to get into top 8 at a major.

This is the best comment under this video by a long shot, amazing comment.
SuperPayTV I don't think you realize how much energy and adrenaline is involved in these moments. If your so into a moment that you physically jump out of your seat, that moment will probably last more than 2 seconds.
Considering that you probably haven't actually been in one of those situations, your opinion remains just an opinion.
@itz_me the keyword is almost

One of my favorite sets this year S2J THE LEGEND
8:45-9:00 is what you came to see
Jeff Wu dat m2k smile
I love how right after m2k dies, there's a standoff. Perfect pacing.
Jeff Wu nah I came to watch this good ass set
8:40... that tech itselt started everything.
i was scared to watch this because i love them both so much, this set was so fun to watch and that combo from johnny at 8:43 had me YELLIN. good shit
This match is gona be watched many, many times. It's too epic! 8:35 11:08
Austin 'Auddy' Davenport I
The chair raising was the greatest thing ever. Hype af
Johnny chair emote incoming!
Falcon. Is. VIABLE.
Nathan Prindler Nice joke man you had me laughing for a good minute.
Nathan Prindler I've been saying for months that falcon can win a major given the right player is playing him. We've seen m2k and hbox lose to falcons, we've seen armada come one knee away from losing to a falcon, we just need a falcon good enough to take on mang0's falco and leffen's fox and the ancient prophecy will be fulfilled
in 2007
Eduardo Aguilar dude I bet you honestly suck ass. 50 dollar money match my falcon vs your character
Eduardo Aguilar damn ppl wanting to money match you now
I frickn love S2J's play style, its just so unwarrantedly aggressive!! Exactly what Ive been looking for!!
11:15 That face, tho.
I prayed to the Falcon God S2J and he came through
you could make an entire combo video with clips just from this set
The ultimate definition of Jonny stock
The face M2K gives at 11:15 is what gives me life, cg to S2J for that victory.
Probably the most high level falcon v sheik set ever. Fantastic from start to finish. Fucking LEGENDARY
Such an amazing set. Both were playing very careful neutral yet the craziest interactions happened within it. Johnny showed great recognition of Sheik's hitboxes and area of danger. He spaced really well against tilts and full hop fairs coming from M2K. Also, the consistent SDI ups were slick. Love both of these guys. GGs.
8:55 M2K's reaction is so wholesome.
best set of the tourney
Was there at shine to see this. One of the best events I have ever gone to. God tier play from S2J.
laughed so hard seeing how the crowd brings up there chairs for s2j lmao
Am I the only one thinking that Jason has a really nice smile?
holy shit, i choked on my drink when they cut to the crowd and they had all the chairs in the air lmfao. so great hahahahaha
That m2k respect handshake. Even he can't be mad about that set. Johnny is nuts.
Both played really well. I am proud of both of them
8:46 what even is this game? even m2k had to respect that masterful combo
wow s2j was on fire
great job man you deserve it
I love seeing M2K having so much fun with Smash!
I literally held my breath those last couple stocks
Could be the highest place for falcon in a major
Fly Fly No, Wizzy got 2nd at Smash Rivalries after 3-0ing M2K.
Invitational.....
That had the best players in the country, minus pp and plup.
SIMIFU armada too. And to be fair, a lot of players bustered out of rivalries too
SangerRocky Armada and PPMD weren't at this one either
I don't play smash but these nerds are passionate about this I love it
This was an amazing set. The gameplay felt very intense and seemed like they both had an awesome time.
23:59 That "let's go baby" made me dyin hahahahah
That Set was Hype AF!
20:35 LOL did someone shock vish with something?
22:44 Mew2King: Thanks for the help Shy Guy!
22:54 Shy Guy: Do you need something els... *smack!*
22:56 Mew2King: Get out of here I can do this alone!
Yo! lets go S2J!!! watching this live i thought i was gonna have a heart attack
Damn it feels so recent that this set just happened and was a crazy upset. A few years later and I'd be more shocked if Johnny didn't get the win.
FIRE. THAT WAS FIREEEE
Hey, I'm an M2K Fan, but this set was still amazing. Props to S2J.
11:15 Jason's pogchamp made me so happy.
this was nuts
8:35-8:55 Everything you need to know about this set in 20 Seconds. Don't watch in a quiet area
I think this set should be nominated for Set of the Year.
8:48 Just look at this M2K reaction. Even in the midst of getting combo'd he's into it.
11:25 S2J playing out of his MIND!
Mew2King though... yeah....
Shout out to the guy at 14:30 who stands up head nods and puts both middle fingers up
Legendary set
Set of the Year?
i could watch this set everyday
This is the greatest a falcon has ever played
YOU DID GOOD TODAY JOHNNY
YOU DID GOOD
Johnny's true power !?
8:30 is what you came here for.
does anyone know what happened with the S2J vs Ice match and why the video is not available?
it wasn't on VGBC because the venue had to close before they played their match so the official stream ended. You can watch their match on either Alex19's or Raalts twitch VODs from Saturday night although don't go expecting good quality, but I know they recorded the video on a laptop so I think they should be uploaded officially soon.
thanks so much for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate you and your advice
Next to Plup vs Armada at BH7, this is probably the 2nd best melee set ever played
take a drink every time vish says grab
Who is that annoying guy at 14:30?
I was getting really scared for s2j when he started missing a couple those free grab ledge -> stomp or grab ledge -> knee edgeguards, because I've met mid-level scrub falcons that can hit that edgeguard 100% consistently and it made me think he was choking. Good on him for maintaining his composure.
8:53 DID M2K JUST SMILE AFTER GETTING COMBO'D
23:39
You cut him! You hurt him! You see, he's not a machine! He's a man!
Isai smiled upon this day.
As a huge M2K fan, I can't even be sad that he lost to S2J, and I don't think he was either. That set was insane.
This entire set was fucking incredible
How do I become apart of this community. This shit looks hella hype. And I love melee
God this set is so good
3:24 forward with .50 playback speed is so fucking funny dude 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really feel like the Universal
Controller fix implemented at this tournament may have helped Johnny get this win
alej745 what's Universal Controller?
6:24 so much fucking control, good god
this set was incredible
This is my favorite matchup when it's playeied well
Mango stream 2019?
M2k really enjoys falcon combos, so him losing to johnny while he got styled on multiple times doesn't really upset him. I hardly ever see m2k shake his opponents hand so he def respected this set
is M2K using a gamestop controller?
S2J, second ever Falcon to beat Mew2King in a best of 5 set!
Who did it better?
Dude! I can't believe that happened!
wheres his 3rd cup?
Falcons are powering up. 20GX!
im a die hard m2k fan but i was cheering for s2j this night
This is my favorite set
Lol at 14:33 at the kid at the right with the blue shirt
22:22 YEAAAH BABY
Haha the chairs, I fucking love the Melee community
22:02 Dat sound
truly great set
Charing is caring
I laughed when I saw the guy at 14:33
( Blue shirt on left side )
Isn't S2J the guy that threw his controller hard as shit into some girls face and then didn't even apologize, after losing to Druggedfox at Evo?
Amazing set
15:57 S2J Should've dove and spiked that dude for the commentator glory
turns out all that was separating jonny from the gods was the ability to edgeguard
LETS GO JOHNNY!!! The Johnny juuuugs!
