This is already an all time great; it's as if it was specifically written to showcase Hbox's strengths and endurance as a player, in a set that will be talked about for a long time. On what I believe was an earlier set, a commentator said "Hbox could bring this back, that's why we used to call him 'Clutchbox'". Well, let's hit ctrl+x, backspace, and cut "used to" out of that sentence, and instead replace it with "That's why we STILL call him Clutchbox" Was so cool to watch live! I was practically shaking after lol. Did not expect that from a puff set.

admittedly I'm not suuuper versed in Melee (mainly an Ult player but I'll watch Melee if I feel like it) so watching this set live was the first time I'd properly seen a high level Puff ditto Nobody told me how cool these things could be, jesus, such a tense set that's probably gonna end up an all time favorite of mine

first off, how does this keep happening second, yeah Melee’s really fun to look through, floaty matchups are actually a lot more technical/intense than people give them credit for, even with timeouts, and Puff ditto for example is quite fun because they can’t exactly outcamp themselves

You can never count out hungrybox he’s been in that situation thousands of time he’s no stranger to pressure and honestly performs best when it’s all on the line

This set shows exactly why people need to stop blindly hating on Hbox just because he plays puff. Puff can be slow at times but if you pay attention more Hbox is able to make her really fast and hype. To come down from 0-2 in the ditto is insane and Hbox should be highly praised for keeping up such mental fortitude. Hopefully Hbox goes through with his plan for focusing on melee for several months so we can get more cool sets like this one.

@lloydirving6209 I think you're underestimating the lengths that people went to to hate on hbox lol. Some of it is justified (stalling against ice climbers for example) but there are definitely people who've said that Jigglypuff as a character could kill the melee scene entirely. Especially when Hbox was undisputed #1 while winning every tournament handily.

Khalid took him to game 5 at another tourney I think

---Spoiler Alert--- One of the best pop offs Hungrybox has had in a long time, not because he threw the chair, but because if you were in the live, you would notice the tension throughout the whole set. SDJ’s dominance in the first two games, how close each game was, the slow game plan, and Hbox’s reversal 3-0 against SDJ. I don’t like puff dittos either but this set was perfect in every aspect, except time. ☠️

Melee is kinda crazy in that this isn't always the case. If the rested puff dies off the top, she takes long enough to die from the stark KO that the resting puff has enough time to wake back up. You can also just fucking tech a rest if you're good enough with wank DI. Most puffs are knowledged enough to know resting on anything except final stock is too much of a risk so they won't go for it anyways.

31:05 my friends, it just keeps happening

expect every match to last 5 to 7 minutes WOW 5 minutes is very optimistic. first match ends in under 4 minutes second match ends in under 4 minutes well

man, recently learned about this and HBox being down 0-2 at 7-8 minutes into the set only to go for the reverse 3-0 in another 23 minutes should be excuse enough for anyone to let him celebrate however he wishes (ofc if nobody is hurt, which nobody was and staff was totally ok with this)

Yall getting mad at Hbox smashing the stage but it’s super SMASH bros, he just embodies the game

That is one of the best games I've ever watched

31:15 that NOT AGAIN 💀💀 BUT HE RECONSIDERS ⚰️

25:40 Foreshadowing at its finest

This is why. He is. The CLUTCH BOX

I get why hungry box popped off so hard these two players were basically edging each other for 30 mins. Puff players are the biggest gooners in the melee community fr

HGOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We need more personalities like these in melee and FGC in general. Nothing less moodkilling when the dude who just won a crazy set with the straightest face ever.

I saw a 4chan post saying "How was the best this tournament a puff mirror?" And I knew i had found it when i saw the comments Also 27:25 look at Hbox' face lmaooo he looks like a pissed chinese man
