  • Even though I was mainly a Roy/Marth main in Melee, throughout these battles I was rooting so much for PC Chris and his Falco

  • 1:53 to 2:03 = sex

  • @pappleparker power shield ..

  • Anybody know where they have ssbm tournaments?

  • @MindGoingNumb check smashboards for tourney info

  • :59 I did not now the lazer can do that

  • 2:02...if he would've gotten that smash attack, it would've been soooooo sick!...he was already charging up and what not, so sick, mann

  • *takes notes*

  • @TehNsider

    Fuck off

  • :59

    "wow i didnt expect Ken to want to win"

  • These commentators don't know what the hell they're talking about

  • Why Ken is never using marth's counter when he can do it ? I mean that could have saved his life more than once, is this some kind of banned move ?

  • @thedarkflowkiller

    The Thing is, If Pc Chris Expects it, He would lose a stock

  • @thedarkflowkiller counter was deemed too good by MLG Smash, so roy marth and peach will recieve an auto lose if they use it

  • 0:30 yes!

  • how come chris is so politically correct?

  • I wanna see Ken play Jeff.

    Also the commentary here is much more "intellegent" than HMW but not as funny.

    "F*** F*** That ain't Falco! WOMBO COMBO"

  • @the1druid HAPPY FEET haha

  • @the1druid but i bet tang can fucking rape these guys ;)

  • @e104jokerr nah, tang sucks now

    mango, hbox, armada etc would rape them shitless tho

  • @anon574 o0O0O0oOOWOOWOWO we are talking about mango!

    he is serious shit!!!!!!

  • @anon574

    yea because Ken, pc chris have stopped playing for the last 5 years.

  • I bet you the creators of this game where probably like i didn't think they were going to be that good =O

  • Isai is watching. Too good

  • holy meteor cancel

  • Just wondering, why is it PC Chris?

  • Port Chester, (NY?) Refer to his MLG interview for specifics.

  • port chester chris

  • Axe, i love you but this commentary is mediocre lol. It is informative if you don't know anything, but when you already know all this it's just annoying. When I first started out I tried to do commentary like this and they all acted like I was being stupid for telecasting every last thing. I used to disagree, but now I see their point. When you comment on every last little thing it just gets bothersome.

    Instead, discuss key points of the match when relevant, and the rest of the time have fun.

  • keep the audience in mind

    they were putting these matches on TV, streaming them for a huge audience, etc.

    MLG tried to bring this game to the public, so naturally they made the commentary as informative as possible. That way the average joe watching this at home could follow what was going on better; that's who it was targeted to.

    Here the commentators are conveying the atmosphere of competition more than anything, and from the business side MLG couldn't afford to just "have fun" with it.

  • Dude, let's be real. The "average joe" is not going to be watching this vid. The only people who are going to be watching this vid are nerds/people who know all about this game. Yes, there may be some people who would learn a good amount from this commentary, but most are just like, "yes I know what falco's shine does, you don't have to tell me 'it makes the opponent go UP' I know how this game works". I appreciate their effort, but it's mostly wasted.

  • From wiki:

    "MLG's aim is to elevate computer and console game tournaments to viable competitive and spectator events."

    That sounds about in line with what I've seen--TV deals with espn, massive live streams, media coverage, pro player interviews, etc.

    With these goals in mind, why would you NOT want to present something professional? "WOW HE GOT FUCKING RAPED!" doesn't send the best impression to corporate sponsors (red bull, monster, microsoft) and new viewers.

  • It was on some side ESPN channel, like only if you have cable or something. IIRC there was a match with chu's fox vs ken on jungle japes that got broadcast on TV.

    Really it doesn't matter WHO watches it (even though MLG did get considerable media coverage), but it's the AIM of the people handling the videos that mattered.

    And, since they were trying to present pro gaming professionally, and garner support for it, that only makes sense to do the commentary this way.

  • i don't know what else to say

    MLG was trying to accomplish a specific goal, and styling the commentary this way was the best way to do it

    i'll let you have the last word

    go play chexr/aarosmashguy

  • There's nothing to say. At this point in time, non-video gamers don't give a shit about professional video gaming. It's the unfortunate reality : /

    They tried, and their effort is good, but when you think about it, it's pointless.

    What's that supposed to mean lol?

    And I would like to play them (playing the best is always a challenge/learning experience lol) but they're never around. Chexr I believe retired/stopped playing, and Aaron is like doesn't hang out much, as far as I know : /.

  • this was broadcasted on USA.

  • LOL are u sure?:D

  • Yeah axe; your pikachu is sexy. ^_^

  • pc kinda looks like dante from dmc4 at one of the choppy points in the vid.

  • i wish they would stfu in these,

  • Love the commentary. This was the first set of Melee matches that I watched and the commentators helped me understand more about the game and the Smash community.

  • gosh i miss commentary like this. now a days, people always talk about random stuff =/

  • i like ur pikachu :)

  • lol! thanks man, you rock sox ^^

    one day, i wanna be on top, just like Ken and PC Chris were at this time

  • You're a bit late >.>

  • Me too. Waffle's rambling gets old after a while.

  • 0:55

    lol...

  • 0:32 YES!

  • If god has two pairs of hands, they have both of them.

  • Wow hardcore. More into shooters for MLG.

  • lol, ken was from surivor.

  • The person from Survivor was Ken

  • lol too true

  • how did he do again?

  • @JubinPwns seriously? i remember them showing "professional gamer" as his job, but i had no idea it was ken!

  • Comment removed

  • 3:58 NO WAY, MLG commentators! I had no idea!

  • he's the guy with the hat talking to PC

  • HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

  • obviously

  • who is ken? the one at the right or left? O.o

  • first asian

  • "Nice combos! Everybody's yelling! ... And Ken breaks them." Way to go Ken. <_<

  • "pc chris does not want to be off the ledge"

    a+ commentary

  • Geez that guy is fast

  • The problem with Brawl is that it's so slow, it loses the hardcore aspect of Melee. But I'm sure Brawl will become very competitive someday, in some other way (maybe not about combos and speed, but strategy and defence).

  • lol, brawl will never be competitive smash is dead to the world (competitively at least)

  • Werd. something like that

  • so brawl will soon be king of boredom and camping, nice.

  • "crowd is going wild".. lol

  • i wud get so pissed fighting these guys

  • Does the guy behind PC Chris have a powerglove?

  • dope and flt got wrecked by ken and isai. pc beats ken here in ny. m2k beats pc in evo east with marth. and dashiz's falco wrecked m2k's marth. i'd say dope has no way in hell of beating dashiz.

  • You're an idiot.

  • Shiz wouldn't beat M2K's Marth now, Ken no longer plays, and Dope would maybe get two stocks off of DaShiz, Shiz and M2K are in a league of their own.

  • ken plays brawl >.> he wasn't seen at first because he was in Survivor the show :S

  • I know Ken play's Brawl, he came in second to that CPU kid in Evo I think it was.

    I meant that Ken no longer plays MELEE.

  • KEN plays brawl?? are you serious? is threre any videos of him up?

  • yup, search for ken vs. sk92 think and it has items, guess those where the tournament rules

  • liar, he doesn't play brawl dummy

  • yes he does, he came in 2nd @ Evo. he lost to some 14 year old with the tag CPU

  • lol i know he plays brawl. i just have a hard time admitting it.

  • with items dipshit

  • So? l already know it was with gay items. l'm stating the fact that he lost to that fag camper CPU.

  • he played in 1 tourney and quit.

  • he played in 1 tourney...

  • what about mango?

  • Well, it's good we have some diehard fans at this game and that it didn't tank.

  • good match

  • 0:56 ---------------------> MindGame Son ! ! !

  • commentary mad gay

  • This tourney isnt that official the players should not be able to hear any kind of cheering, rants and raves or anythign of that nature except for the game. It throws them off no matter how pro.

  • so basically you're calling football, basketball, and several other sports unofficial as well? Don't be so ignorant

  • Well if you weren't so ignorant you would've reaized that I was making reference to the video game tourneys NOT sports tourneys like the superbowl or the playoffs. You simply misinterpreted my comment. Try to work on your english as well, there should be no question mark in your sentence.

  • don't insult another person's english when you misspell 'realized'. plus, he was implying that a lot of official sports have the same circumstances.

  • Dont insult my english when you didn't start your sentence with a capital letter. Your grammar is appauling in any case. Just face it we all make typos and grammatical errors because no one is perfect. I never commented towards you so I dont see how you ended up talking to me. I never commented towards anyone I was merely stating an opinion yet the whole world wants to prove me wrong. WTF IS THAT!! P.S. there should be an -ed and the end of mispell because you're talking about the past.

  • haha you do know competitve gaming IS a sport right?

  • Did I EVER say that it wasn't? Quote me if I did... I thought so. If you carefully read the comments you will see exactly the whole reason why I even commented on the video. Think about it, I said, "this tourney isnt that official" and I posted on a ssbm video not a basketball highlights video. OBVIOUSLY I was talking about some video game tourneys.

  • hmmm....looking for a quote from u....ah HA!

    "Well if you weren't so ignorant you would've reaized that I was making reference to the video game tourneys NOT sports tourneys like the superbowl or the playoffs." Sound familiar? You were clearly separating competitive gaming from other sports

  • NO SHIT SHERLOCK what's your point? You haven't proven anything. Think about read the comment you posted and the one you replied to, what exactly are you trying to say. I never said competitive gaming was NOT a sport did I? You just misinterpreted my whole comment. Like I said before and you've proven me right YET again, your just an imbecile.

  • You realize I'm intentionally ticking you of for no reason right?

  • ehh what makes u think I was ticked off?

    I dont exactly have time for this anymore I just made a comment and then retards started talking to me. It seems to happen a lot nowadays. End of discussion though ive lost interest

  • haha dude join the freakin club. I haven't insulted you once ...yet

  • pc chris is obviously better. ken just gets lucky and doesnt die.

  • it's called DI. ken relies on reflexes and mindgames not luck.

  • my first time watching this and as a gamer that plays those pc games like cs and dota and all that, i gotta say this is FUN to watch lol. ive only played smash a few times

  • I can't believe it has already been two years since this match took place and it's still damn entertaining to watch.

  • true that.

  • I think that, for people who don't even follow the competitive scene, "who's the best" is simply not important.

  • ok so we can establish that these players are both good... and that ken is the best marth in the world and pc chris is one of the best falcos...

  • LMAO, Ken WAS the best Marth...until Azen stepped up his game and M2K came in.

    And Falco WAS one of the best Falcos, now he's the BEST Falco.

  • Oh I meant PC Chris, my bad.

  • ken beat m2k a few times azen is no were near the best...with marth that is

  • ps doesnt play falco anymore, sadly. dashizwhiz is probably the best falco, if there is one. though I don't know if he plays melee or brawl now though

  • DaShizWiz is not best Falco, best Falco in Florida, but not best. PC plays Fox now but he goes Falco sometimes and his still rapes DaShizWiz.

  • r u series? Dashizwiz's falco is much faster than PC's falco.. and didn't DSW rape PC's fox during a crew battle? there's a reason why PC switched to fox.

  • Faster doesn't mean better. Plus PC switched to Fox because his Falco gets raped by Marths.

  • i agree that faster doesn't mean better. But DSW is not only technical and fast now, he also has good DI and better combos than PC with falco. I really don't know who's gonna win between them now if both play using only falco.

    And btw PC beat Ken's marth so no he doesn't get raped by marths. He only gets beat by M2k/Azen's marths, but both of these players are just overall better than him.

  • Hahah, tell you the truth I couldn't predict who would win in a Falco ditto anymore either. They are both amazing with Falco.

  • yeah. I didn't mean to bash PC Chris's falco i just disagree that he has the best falco currently. He IS overall a better player than DSW but not necessarily a better falco player.

  • byakuya32, PC didn't switch because he lost to DSW in regional crews during FCD, he switched because his fox does so much better vs m2k, and m2k was the only person consistently.

    This whole event was so hard for ken. The constant racial slurs and stuff in the background and nobody behind him was hard. He was in the enemy territory after all.

  • lol i know. it's just that i don't think PC's falco is better than Dashizwiz's current falco. I said that there's a reason y PC switched to fox b/c his falco just can't beat some of the better pros out there anymore (ex. M2k, Azen, and Mango etc). While PC does place higher than Shiz still, he does so using fox not falco.

  • What are you talking about? PC reached 3rd best in Power Rankings with his Falco in like 2006. I agree with you that DaShizWiz is very good but he's more flashy than Smart. PC is one of the smarter Falco players and despite how he doesn't play Falco as much (if at all)plus Fox is just a better matchup vs alot of characters rather than Falco.

  • with shiz placing so high nowadays and pc having not mained falco for years its hard to say who is better. youre right it probably is shiz. but youre wrong about pc switching to fox because his falco was incompetent. pc switched to fox because thats his preferred starting character in most matchups. his falco peach sheik marth falcon etc are all on par with his fox and he uses all of his characters in tournament.

  • i agree with you. But after watching his fox i'd say it's alot more technical than his falco. And yes with fox being a character with better match ups it's a good decision to switch to it.

  • ken is the cleanest of fiighters, hes better than PC

  • u do know this was in 2006 rite? PC is the best in the world and ken's retired

  • lol i wouldnt say PC is the best right now, hes definitely close though, but i would say azen and m2k and mango are really close to the top, but then again brawl is coming so who cares?

  • eh that's probably true

  • brawl can suck melee's nuts.

  • i noticed that ken never uses the counter move (down B)

  • NEVER is an understatement, he uses the move but it seems he doesn't want to risk a miss due to the lag and even if it hit it wont do much damage or knockback so ye, but he does use it

  • NEVER is an understatement, he uses the move but it seems he doesn't want to risk a miss due to the lag and even if it hit it wont do much damage or knockback so ye, but he does use it

  • newlyweds doing commentary? cool

  • Damn...These two are good...

  • From what I have been hearing Ken is retiring from SSBM. Is this true?

  • they've played eachother so many times that kens mind games seem to have gotten old.

    PC is one of the only people to play ken so evenly like this.

  • Wow PC did nicely in this one

  • I AGREE BS IS SLIGHTLY BETTER

  • no he is not PC is alot smarter and almost as technical

  • dude BS sucks now

  • is their a reason why somtimes they dash back and forth??

  • if you mean the wavedash, sometimes they do it to taunt, sometimes to evade, sometimes to confuse the opponent. its a pretty good technique but i dont think itll be in brawl

  • ohhh i see, but how does it help evade moves cause i usually just see them do that when someone just died and i guess they use it for more of a taunt. also i noticed that falco does a quick jump whenever he is shooting, is that just a good way of travelling and makes the shooting go faster?

  • You jump and shoot because there's no lag at the end. Moving around with it makes it really easy to follow up and use lasers in combos.

  • i see, how do you do that move/what are the controls?

  • That dash is called Dashdancing. It's used to fake people out and keep a high mobility, mostly for chaining grabs or pivot attacks.

    Wavedashing is different it is more subtle, used for different reasons.

  • so the dashing back and forth is dashdancing? then what is wavedashing? and arent all these dashes just for high mobility or to just move in a more safer way then just walking or running directly?

  • If you have any questions = smashboards. If you want the advanced movement, go search advanced how to play. There are 3 parts to it so watch it all.

  • oh thanks, do i search it up on youtube?? or where?

  • Smashboards is a website. Advanced how to play is a video on youtube.

  • ohhh i see thanks

  • pc is my nigga

  • congrats

  • I don think most of these "best" players know that people like ken and PC know each other's metagames. They cant go too aggressive cuz the other will know how to combat such. They got to mix up their gameplay and take it "slow" if you know what i mean.

    And for those who think you are so great. Unless you played against these guys or ppl like them, you are still a scrub.

  • Know each other's metagames? I don't know about that... Smash has always been a game of tag. Provoke the other guy to attack by getting in close, make the other guy whiff, dodge the attack, and punish.

  • Well you basically look for the lag in rolls and spot the tecs is mostly where its at actually but yes if people spam smashes than abuse them on it but Pros usually bait with weaker attacks such as the Gentleman and Marth's tipping.

  • ppl who say guys like pc and ken cant play are ussualy just haters who are kinda jealous of those guys skill

  • he figures that out later. watch the finals of mlg dallas

  • Don't think Ken doesn't know how to play Marth.

    I agree with jwkirby.

    And I believe because of Ken Marth was top tier until just recently.

  • Wow are you kidding me ilovlegod? I've been playing tournament level smash brothers since the game came out (recently retired till SSBB), and I've played with Ken and got 3 stocked 2 times (on 4 stock). I've never played PC Chris but his lvl of play is just as good as Ken's is. I can't believe you think you can beat them. HAHAHAHAHA!

  • Which character did u play?

  • go ken! azn power! (white guy is cool too, dont get me wrong)

  • 0:29 was a near fatal mistake for Ken

  • shut the hell up. you're not better than them so stop trying to act like you are.
