Genesis 5 was without a doubt one of the greatest tournaments of all time. It’s top 8 is up there with The Big House 4 and Apex 2015 as one of the best top 8’s ever. Every single set besides maybe Lucky vs HugS and Armada vs Lucky was incredibly hype (those two were still good though) and the fact that Plup won it all was the cherry on top. I’ll definitely be revisiting these sets for years to come.
+Wario BikeFromNike Sorry dude, but you really shouldn’t read the comments of Smash videos if you’re worried about spoilers. I mean, it’s kinda obvious that people will discuss stuff like that. I would totally put a spoiler warning if like every other comment here wasn’t a spoiler too.
Dubem Ogwulumba yes every character has some good moves but Zelda is slow, trash recovery options against everyone but Ganon ( cause he's too slow to punish Zelda's up-b distance even with horrible landing lag ), side-b's hitbox and lag is awful, upsmash is awful, fsmash can be smash di'd out of easily, little room for combos since her tilts are so bad and she is so slow. My original comment was a obvious joke.
possibly the best run of all time, hungry box and armada are definitely still on top of their game, and never dropping a set? actually amazing. congrats plup
Top 8s are certainly getting exciting now! Anything could happen, Plup could win, Armada could have to make it through Losers, Leffen and HBOX might just straight up fight on stream. 2018 be crazy
I haven't seem this game in a few months, but goddamn, it looks so fast, I don't know why, everyone just seems like they significantly stepped up their game since I last saw it.
don't think you would have given him the fist bump if you were in that situation (hbox threw his controller out of rage before leffen even decided to not fist bump him)
WavVve First of all, of course he would turn his head down when losing a game. Secondly, What does that have to do with anything? it's not like turning your head down means that you are not gonna fist bump. Thirdly, the reason he turned his head down was to unplug the controller
Scenes w/ HBox to skip: 11:39-15:37 (HBox vs Leffen 3-2 HBox) 21:11-24:17 (HBox vs Plup 3-1 Plup) 27:36-32:40 (Hbox vs Leffen 3-2 Hbox) 32:41-34:24 (Hbox vs Plup 3-0 HBox) 34:25-39:50 (Hbox vs Plup 3-2 Plup) You all are welcome, I'm saving you the time needed to skip these.
Does anyone know why HBox let Plup go back to Pokemon Stadium on Game 4, Set 2 of GF? Isn't it a rule you can't go back to the stage you previously won on? Or did G5 not have that rule in place? And if so, why didn't HBox go back to Dreamland for Game 5? Questions, questions...
It'd be cool if Scar didn't apologize for the USA chant every time it happens. Probably one person complained, and now he says it every time. Just a small gripe in an otherwise good commentating.
Eh, from what I've seen Hbox was being graceful in victory at the start in spite of a grip of vids with Leff talkin that jive in them and when Lil Leff walked off without even a fist bump I could see how Hbox would swell up a bit. A bit of a "Fuck off then nerd" imo
I understand the crowd rooting against HBox, but I expect some sort of professionalism from the commentators. Screaming "No!"when HBox does something good (Vish in particular) is just in bad taste and pretty childish.
Jinsu “He plays a character I don’t like so he’s a piece of shit” I don’t see any reason to not like the guy. Other than that his over-the-top reactions he sometimes does, he doesn’t really do anything to warrant hate.
Then you have not exactly been looking. Recently there was a surge of players who came out with how horrible he had treated them even after saying they were fans of him. Leffen has an entire video about the subject and retweeted several people sharing the sentiment that Hbox is a dick.
yaboiTallMan how do people not see through his charade. He loves attention and is condescending with his “reactions” acting like he’s gods gift to this earth
yo, 20:50, when mango hits his controller against the table im 95% sure thats how he broke it (unless its a diff controller) and ended up playing the rest of 2018 with a broke controller. thats pretty crazy
DSR isn't an auto ban on repeated counterpicks, it's a rule where the player being counterpicked can decline a repeated stage If you forget it's on you
Give up gimr I'll never click the bell
Notifications from VG is notification suicide

SSB_Seal please add a spoiler alert to this comment man!!! I didn’t get the chance to watch the livestream :/
what're you doing on this video if you don't want spoilers...?

What would've been the greatest Top 8 of all time if Mew2king and Amsa were there
Who asked you idiot
Top 10 Zelda transformation. Plup is gonna be number 1.
And the Plup2k Combo on Hbox
THAT WAS SO CLEAN! *classic commentary*

Zelda looking viable in 2018
That blonde swordman still unviable.
Her down B is arguably the best move in the game
Dub_Steep yes in project m
Dubem Ogwulumba yes every character has some good moves but Zelda is slow, trash recovery options against everyone but Ganon ( cause he's too slow to punish Zelda's up-b distance even with horrible landing lag ), side-b's hitbox and lag is awful, upsmash is awful, fsmash can be smash di'd out of easily, little room for combos since her tilts are so bad and she is so slow.

*Ｈ Ｅ Ｙ Ｇ Ｕ Ｙ Ｓ Ｇ Ｉ Ｍ Ｒ Ｈ Ｅ Ｒ Ｅ*
Plup counterpick stadium 2 times in GF luul
Possesiv Smash yeah how was this allowed??????
Oh yeah, it's . . . not is it?
I was stuck in hype mode so i didnt notice
Nobody notice for the hype it self, let the script be i guess
It's not. Hbox didn't notice. RIP.
twitter.com/LiquidHbox/status/955353251896967169
Possesiv Smash It is legal if both players agree to go back on that stage but this time Hbox fucked up so good for plup :)
possibly the best run of all time, hungry box and armada are definitely still on top of their game, and never dropping a set? actually amazing. congrats plup
Liam Cusack dropped a set to box
+Paul Jesus ehhh, yeah you got me on a technicality there he indeed did you're right
Plup is a god
I'm glad that kid who jumped on stage for a selfie got thrown off.
i thought i was the only one to see that
Definitely at the edge of my seat in the Mango vs Leffen set, goddamn.
15:16 Toph's "ooh" cracks me up so much
Top 8s are certainly getting exciting now! Anything could happen, Plup could win, Armada could have to make it through Losers, Leffen and HBOX might just straight up fight on stream. 2018 be crazy
PULP CLUBBBB
plup 6th god confirmed
SHABANG 7th
Never forget him.
SHABANG leffen or plup for number 5?
OverstuffedSofa pulp ;^)
Israel Aviña he's no longer a godslayer unlike leffen, he has ascended to godhood.
Anyone know if there are vods of those pre-top 8 interviews?
Yo this crowd was hype, I love it.
We were singing the national anthem as Mang0 go bodied, shit was amazing lol.
G5 was lit, many fist bumps
Damn, poor Hbox lol.
Someone had to save Melee though
GG!
Woooowww, let's GO PLUP!!! Such a great player, great job.
plup to hbox: am i a god now
hbox: You can be whatever you want to be.
I feel like hbox is leffen’s dad
10:59 No fucking way that happened... I've replayed that 3 times already and just... wow.
That Zelda lightning kick holy shit
why is leffen being a child? and why is hbox acting like hes all hard lmfaoo
AsBalz I’m wondering the same
AsBalz someone cue the violin music and give these guys their own fucking soap opera 😂😂
ua-cam.com/video/m-pWcLfRyAA/v-deo.html
Because of this
pigsgooinkoink1 Leffen disliking dickish behavior lmao
AsBalz I can't believe he was able to look that hard while also being so pudgy
10:58 my jaw literally hurts with how far it dropped
Vish looking SHARP for this top 8
melee, the only game where people enjoy watching top characters winning against low tiers
If you like the content, "X the CHECK box!" - our savior, GIMR
"Jeff and Ryan Hard" LMAO
the fucking dude jumping on stage after GF and then getting slapped offstage by security lol
PLUP A GOD
Scar ya fuckin Newman it's Jeff and Matt Hardy you nutter butter.
God.
I haven't seem this game in a few months, but goddamn, it looks so fast, I don't know why, everyone just seems like they significantly stepped up their game since I last saw it.
Genesis 5 is now property of the Plup Club
If i was plup at that moment i woulda had my fist into the screen from the popoff, that was fuckin nerve wracking.
Thank you Gimmr! You're visionary to start VGbootcamp!
DrFeelgood56 don't feed his ego it's already too big. soon it will consume us all
Leffen refusing to fist bump Hbox is equally as cringe as Hbox beating his chest at Leffen like a mad man
zach hearn and i couldn't ask for more tbh
zach hearn your cringe is my pleasure
don't think you would have given him the fist bump if you were in that situation (hbox threw his controller out of rage before leffen even decided to not fist bump him)
Wiklund leffen had already turned with his head down lol
WavVve First of all, of course he would turn his head down when losing a game. Secondly, What does that have to do with anything? it's not like turning your head down means that you are not gonna fist bump. Thirdly,
the reason he turned his head down was to unplug the controller
This highlight reel is now property of the PlupClub.
While I typically root for Mang0, I knew Plup would win Genesis after witnessing that legendary Zelda kick to 3-0 Armada.
31:47 rippppppp
plup picked pkm stadium 2 times on the reset, is that ok?
plupW The Script is now property of the Plup Club plupW
Sucks to be Hbox - either lose the tournament or beat Plup. Him winning G5 would have been 1000 times worse than TBH.
38:51 - 38:58 get's me every single time.
lolm2k
My favourite part is that when Plup won nobody even said a single word to Hbox lmaooo
2:38 Scar pls Jeff and Matt Hardy
Was it bad that I rooted for all of the Gods in this Top 8? I mean I like them all (ESPECIALLY Plup)
Who else FREAKED out when plup lightning kicked? Omg
x Gillatron me, i lost my shit when i saw it live
Scenes w/ HBox to skip:
11:39-15:37 (HBox vs Leffen 3-2 HBox)
21:11-24:17 (HBox vs Plup 3-1 Plup)
27:36-32:40 (Hbox vs Leffen 3-2 Hbox)
32:41-34:24 (Hbox vs Plup 3-0 HBox)
34:25-39:50 (Hbox vs Plup 3-2 Plup)
You all are welcome, I'm saving you the time needed to skip these.
T!TO spot the actual Melee fan
Thanks for all the timestamps, hbox is the best
melee fans getting more stupid than sports fans :)
Shadster_ just so you know Hbox tweeted about you posting this comment
THX I wanted to see them, so you saved me time trying to find them :D
i love plup so much
10:58 highlight of the tournament
Plup too good
i can’t fucking stand the commentators when they commentate mango lol
Toph is so obviously a Mang0 fan.
He said Ryan Hardy I'm sleep.
Doubles highlights?
18:17 that was a m2k angle
31:30-32:20 at .25 speed is hilarious
Does anyone know why HBox let Plup go back to Pokemon Stadium on Game 4, Set 2 of GF? Isn't it a rule you can't go back to the stage you previously won on? Or did G5 not have that rule in place? And if so, why didn't HBox go back to Dreamland for Game 5? Questions, questions...
From what I saw on twitter hbox didnt even notice until after the set and replied "Fukn whoops"
It's a rule, but if the other player agrees to it, then they can go to the stage again.
imo HBox wanted Plup to win, he could downgrade his level or just not making use of DSR
Hbox let him win
I love Plup and M2K.
So hbox threw the tournament right?
Ya dude thats what it looked like to me
38:50 guy in the back taking selfies gets punched
Why is PPMD considered a god
@27:55 yo that was nasty bro
darkfheenix somebody clip dat
Plup our hero
It'd be cool if Scar didn't apologize for the USA chant every time it happens. Probably one person complained, and now he says it every time. Just a small gripe in an otherwise good commentating.
Eh, from what I've seen Hbox was being graceful in victory at the start in spite of a grip of vids with Leff talkin that jive in them and when Lil Leff walked off without even a fist bump I could see how Hbox would swell up a bit. A bit of a "Fuck off then nerd" imo
PLUP WINS GENESIS 5 🗣️🗣️🗣️
I understand the crowd rooting against HBox, but I expect some sort of professionalism from the commentators. Screaming "No!"when HBox does something good (Vish in particular) is just in bad taste and pretty childish.
Vseslav Botkin its not disrespect, just the underdog bias. Vish doesn't have anything against Hbox pretty sure
Hbox is such a piece of shit, how does he still have fans
Jinsu
“He plays a character I don’t like so he’s a piece of shit”
I don’t see any reason to not like the guy. Other than that his over-the-top reactions he sometimes does, he doesn’t really do anything to warrant hate.
Then you have not exactly been looking. Recently there was a surge of players who came out with how horrible he had treated them even after saying they were fans of him. Leffen has an entire video about the subject and retweeted several people sharing the sentiment that Hbox is a dick.
yaboiTallMan how do people not see through his charade. He loves attention and is condescending with his “reactions” acting like he’s gods gift to this earth
Mango looks like DJ.Auki
yo, 20:50, when mango hits his controller against the table im 95% sure thats how he broke it (unless its a diff controller) and ended up playing the rest of 2018 with a broke controller. thats pretty crazy
Jeff and Ryan Hardy lmao.
10:58 - and that's how Zelda became a mid tier
2018 gon b good
WHY WOULD YOU SPOIL IT IN THE TITLE.
P U L P
"Jeb and Ryan hardy" WTF don't quote wrestling if you don't know what you're talking about 😂😂😂😂
The reason the Mango vs Armada legacy didn't continue was because there was a greater legacy brewing that the Smash gods preferred to push...
jeff and matt hardy scar
Gimr why the FUCK is this video so long
PLUPPP!!!!
Hugs heart breaker.

So much respect to Hungrybox.
Thanks HBOX your a good sport.
Still can't believe that plup counterpicked pokemon stadion twice even though he won on it already in that second set of GF
Maxwell Partain who cares
Maxwell Partain I know, it could've made a big difference.
DSR isn't an auto ban on repeated counterpicks, it's a rule where the player being counterpicked can decline a repeated stage
If you forget it's on you
RestBox :D
inb4 VGPlupCamp name change plupW
This top 8 now belongs to the Plup club
