Melee I am Hungrybox. I play Jigglypuff in SSBM, which made a lot of people upset over the years. Ask me Anything!

I figured I would do this since APEX 2014 is around the corner. I want to answer all sorts of questions about Smash and Life in general.

Disclaimer: I won't answer questions about Mango/his AMA. He's a father now and I'd rather not put any stress or dumb stuff on his family. The baby is cute as fuck too. I look forward to playing him and the other pros in a couple of weeks!

Wizzrobe is a prodigy who will break through if he switches to Fox. But he might be the next best player in Florida. Super good for his age. Reminds me of Colbol when he was young.

Plup is the best Samus in my opinion. I'll continue to stand by that until I'm proven wrong. He has the potential to go even with the top 5 when he's playing well.

I'm ass at 64. I've never really liked it too much.

Tipped Off 9 was a lot of fun. PP fucked me up.

I registered for Brawl because tournaments for anything are fun when they're as big as Apex. I used to be ranked in Florida and I just feel that everyone sucks at that game in general. So it's fun to beat bad people. I always look them dead in the eye after our set and ask them,

"Have you ever played Melee?"

I'm like a melee missionary. I want everyone to play the game since it's a lot better competitively than Brawl.

Best Artist of 2013....Deafheaven, since Sunbather was phenomenal. I saw them live and it changed my SOUL.

Best song of 2013 is either Cavalier (JVM) or That Light That's Blinding (Mutual Benefit).

Dude, do you have a last.fm or something? I always see you talking about albums I really like, and Sunbather was my AOTY. And yeah, Deafheaven is fucking crazy live, probably the best show I've ever been to.

DEAFHEAVEN!! Fuck, you are so cool.

Why wasn't Wizzrobe in the MIOM SSBM Top 100?

u/LeeLee94 I, like many others many Fox... Poorly. Jan 06 '14

Just listened to Cavalier for the first time there.. it kinda just blew my mind away. Thanks for that.

Also at the chance you read this I just want to say, Hi H-box! :D

u/Tha_Doctor Jan 06 '14

Sunbather was an awesome album. Props to smashers who listen to good metal.

I was at your tournament on the 28th and I was playing friendlies with Wizzy getting my ass kicked and you shouted in the room something like, "Best Smasher in Florida, what? I've never fucking heard of this 'Wizzobe' guy." I think he'll do really well at Apex though. I don't think he should switch to Fox though. His Falcon's pretty solid and we don't need him being the next Hax.

mutual benefit is the truth

u/KampfyChair Jan 06 '14

Goddamn. Sunbather got my hooked, and the day after I discovered it I found that they were playing in my area two days later. I had to miss the concert. I was angry.

Mind if I live vicariously through you from now on?

It's his opinion and he can do whatever he wants about it. And for the record he said he wanted to get people to play Melee not that he wanted them to stop playing brawl for melee.

u/d20diceman Jan 06 '14

Yes! The reply I typed out before /u/Dr_Robotnik deleted his post was saying much the same thing - wanting people to play Melee doesn't mean he wants them to stop Brawl. I want all my M:tG buddies to play Dominion but I still want to play Magic with them!

Do you use L, R, or Z or L-cancel?

STOP LIKING THINGS I DON'T LIKE!!!

since it's a lot better competitively than Brawl.

Here comes the shitstorm.

u/Muffinut Jan 06 '14

competitively

Is there any argument that it isn't?

0

u/indiez Jan 06 '14

Not any that I agree with, but usually when these things are said on this subreddit a bunch of brawl apologetics come out of the woodwork and prog or other mods will defend them and then downvote cannons will hit the accusers.

u/Imheretolaughatyou Jan 06 '14

go back to pitchfork you disgusting pleb

u/SoulClap Jan 06 '14

pitchfork had a terrible aoty.

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '14

Modern Vampires of the City isn't terrible. It's pretty poppy, but I like it more than Contra if you're going to like Vampire Weekend.

1

u/SoulClap Jan 06 '14

it's not a terrible album but considering all the other stuff that came out this year, it's a pretty bad aoty, imo. i gotta disagree with you, i like contra better than modern vamps.

u/Richmard Jan 06 '14

Who let /mu in here?

13

u/minasmorath Jan 06 '14

He's already stated that he enters Brawl for funsies, helps boost numbers and he still enjoys playing the game even if he hasn't dedicated any real time to it.

u/thepolst Sheik Jan 06 '14

I'm curious as to who he will play as... Wario?

u/iamhungrybox Jan 06 '14
