What happen last night in mafia?
>>335161298
Mang0 made a clutch play for Mafia and they ended up taking it
>>335161298
Village blowing it as usual
Medic making some hard reads
S2J and sfat making hard reads but still getting killed
Vigil NOT using his shot when everyone knew he was the next guy to die
Mang0 fucking up his defence for his innocence but turning it around so that HBox was cemented as a "Villager" in everyone else's eyes
Shroomed jobbing at the end as usual
Toph literally doing the mafia's job for them and being responsible for a good chunk of the villager deaths
Scar being OP mafia and literally controlling the flow of the game for mafia's favour
do you disagree at all with the projected bracket?
>>335162372
I think m2k will beat plup. Sure he won at 5 gods but it seems like a fluke to me. Also hbox will beat armada.
>>335162556
I agree M2K will beat plup, but I don't think Plup beating him at 5 Gods was a fluke. Plup is putting in work all the time. He's getting better and better. It's genuinely impressive.
>>335162556
eh, I don't know about mew2king beating plup.
m2k's only been playing sm4sh lately and i can see plup pulling out the fox maybe.
Bummed PP won't be there. He's by far my favorite to watch when he's feeling confident.
When can I watch ESAM get rekt?
>>335162736
I say that because a phantom hit decided game 2 in plup's favor and m2k seemed to be regaining momentum in the later games of the set.
>>335162898
>When can I watch ESAM get rekt?
In bracket at the very least.
>>335162898
in Rivals of Aether. mang0's the only good one at the game, he's gonna body him.
>>335163259
ESAM was talking about Rivals of Aether yesterday, he mentioned 3 people who played that game, mang0, himself and someone else
>>335161135
Leffen isn't a god
Rivals of Aether is gonna have a surge in popularity after this event.
I wonder if they're getting ready for a new update.
Anybody play regularly?
>>335163594
Hes one of the godawful
>>335163684
Waiting for it to be <10$
>>335163754
I approve this.
>>335163754
It stops here.
>>335163358
Last guy was Plup.

I'll pass.
>>335164241
>can't even get many mechanics correct
What do you mean by "correct"?
>>335164315
Wavedashing
Air momentum
Movesets aren't like Smash
based Happy2king
our guys
>>335164431
It isn't Smash, why would the movesets and mechanics be like it? It might be based on the game but that doesn't mean it has to be exactly like it
Is this fuck really OP or is it just a meme?
we're live homies
>>335161135
I thought Summit was a melee only tournament? Isn't ESAM a smash 4 player? I don't really keep up with the scene
Why does the smash summit have such funky tunes?
>>335165247
Esam plays melee as well as smash 4. He's just not as good at melee. He got into Summit for the maymays.
>>335165247
he got voted in my aggressively campaigning w/ promises of smash 4 analysis and other shit, also has a huge fanbase in general.
>>335164536
I can't wait to see Esam at the summit!
>>335165247
druggedfox sucks so hard that he let esam get into summit
>>335165435
He's a big guy
FUCK esam on the couch again ;__;
>>335165663
For me.
>>335165435
He's a misfire.
I haven't seen this much butthurt in the Melee communitty over ESAM since EVO announced Smash 4 for 2015 before Melee
Weston always looks really confused when he gets on commentary
>>335165683
He hasn't been that bad. He definitely could be worse.
Also, being one of the three players there who know anything about Rivals of Aether it's relatively appropriate.
Fuck ESAM. If someone took a gun to his fucking bald head right now I wouldnt't even care.
>>335165884
Sm4sh will forever be in our shadow and they can't fucking get over it.
This slow moving camera makes me feel like I'm going to get seasick.
Are they ever going to play the game? Every time you post this thread I go look and it's just a bunch of fags circlejerking
>>335166221
spoke too soon
>>335162313
fucking scar.
nobody with his level of charisma and people skill should be allowed to be mafia
>>335166352
And they're right back to just talking.
Blur taking shots at Westballz.
WESHHHBAAWWWWLLZZZZ
I'd like Rivals more if it wasn't lazy Pixelshit
>pizza in oven
>turn on stream
>time to get comfy
>esam commentary
DROPPED
>>335166598
it's just the nature of the event. there's a lot of downtime. i'd imagine most DOTA summits are like this as well.
>Esam
>Like
>Like
>Like

>>335166598
That's what the summit is. You can watch regular Melee tournaments any single day of the year
ESAM SHUT THE FUCK UP
literally doesn't stop to breath
Should I watch Summit
Or not study for my finals and kill my whole semester/year?
I'm going to need a comfier blanket.
In esams headcanon every character is female because men are shitlords.

>>335166843
I wasn't even noticing his likes today.
shit
>"i bought this game"
nice story wes
lol wes
sounds like me with every humble bundle game
>smash summit
>they don't play smash
>>335163684
Waiting for a Linux port.
>>335167156
Rivals of Aether is closer to melee than any other smash game aside from PM
I would probably be more interested in rivals of aether if the art in it wasn't so shit.
>look up ralph
>its someone that my friends were friends with in middle school and i was in band with him
Is there no way to block in this game?
the puddle is so stupid lol
>>335167461
no,just parries
are they seriously playing this for 2 hours
>>335166160
They don't care about Melee lol
you Meleefags cant resist obsessively bringing up Smash 4 in every thread
>>335167526
not gonna take 2 hours, there's only 4 entrants lol
>>335167642
breaks though
>>335167517
>no blocks
And there goes my interest in this game
shroomed is so fucking awful
just forfeit my nigga
as a dedicated RoA player (ranked #3 in NJ), this event is making me fucking sick.
No one except this ESAM dude knows shit about the game. At least get knowledgeable people on the couch.
Looks like the adderal is addling Wes's head.
>Rivals of Aether
nice
>>335168129
>not even #1
>esam acting like 6-7 frame window is small
tr4shbabbies in a nutshell
When does Melee start? I'm really horny and wank to have sex with my boyfriend but I don't want to miss the start.
These stages are dank as fuck.
>>335168342
*want to
So are they playing Melee today or
>>335168342
fags not allowed ITT
>>335168503
I'm a girl...
>>335168129
>No one except this ESAM dude knows shit about the game. At least get knowledgeable people on the couch.
its because melee players dont care about other games
>>335168593
s-sorry qt, u can stay
Not gonna lie I kinda wanna play this game
>>335168129
They're not even playing seriously. This is basically a time-filler event and nobody gives a shit about your boring game
>>335168329
kek 6-7 frames is an eternity in fighting games
I could make a sandwich in that much time.
how the fuck can you break the rock recovery with a pebble
>>335168593
>wank
>girl
Your ass a retard, thats wha chu is
>>335168828
Everyone on the couch is getting hype as fuck you dingus. RoA is the shit and the only reason its not more popular is because its had very little advertising.
ESAM woulda been cool if he didn't do a heel turn
>>335168129
>forced to play & commentate a game they don't know
>turns out they aren't knowledgeable about the game
WHAT
>>335169109
Or because it looks like shit
>>335169109
RoA is pretty sick, i played it a fair amount when it came out but i've been playing more melee lately
i think the reason no one is super knowledgeable is because the only people that know about the game besides ESAM are in the actual side tourney
mang0 and plup are pretty decent as far as people that don't play the game a whole lot go, their set will probably be pretty interesting, just because they're super good at melee and sorta decent at RoA
dont listen to the autists tho bruv
>>335168692
This
These fucking plants
Orcane is broken as fuck lol
>>335168692
>Get a 1000 dollar gaming PC
>Turns into Melee machine
Why the fuck do I not like video games anymore?
>"""fighting game""" fags btfo by indie smash clone thrown together by 1 man
>>335169542
Tell me this looks like shit. I dare you.
>>335170624
come on stop
there's no big sfv tourney on right now
>>335170649
>someone saved my webm
ayy
>>335170939
Did that guy just not DI at all?
why isnt this just single elimination.
>>335171167
He DI's left at first, then right, then gives up
>>335169109
they just want mango to win
why are they playing some shitty flash game
>>335171449
they picked challenges based on the stuff that esam knows so he can look good before he gets 2-0'd
>>335171449
Why not? You rather they were playing charades again?
someone punch my shoulder when this shit is over
AND THE JEW SHOUTS
>>335171449
It's a mini-tournament, the game is solid, and the RoA Summit Kragg Skin sold very well
>>335171449
Does no one even bother to read the schedule?
>>335171317
They don't even have 4 players that know how to play so they probably figured it would be over quick.
Is there good online multiplayer for this?
Thinking about buying it for me and my sister.
>>335168692
Mango plays CS:GO and league and played a lot of RoA when it first came out.
Leffen plays DOTA and SFVand ragequits
>>335170649
It looks like shit
Why is everyone in the chat so triggered whenever someone so much as acknowledges the existence of Smash 4? I've never seen a community so hateful of a game in the same series just for being different.
>>335171963
Mango actually plays a lot of games besides melee, recently he also played RE 4 and Dark Souls.
>>335171969
twitch chat is an intentional meme, don't try and read into it
it's either people shitposting or people being 9 years old, both of which are semi-entertaining if it isn't overkill
90% of melee players don't give a fuck tbqh, we just don't play the game lel
>>335171969
Memes bandwagon.
Why you have Twitch chat on though?
>>335171969
Just turn twitch chat off like everyone else.
only 2 more games of this bros.
>>335172127
He just plays those games for the stream, he doesn't take them seriously. His RE4 runthrough was a complete joke
I watched mafia since I missed it, it would be 10x better if they revealed roles at death, what are they doing?
>>335172151
>>335172172
>>335172238
It's not just the twitch chat though, look at Twitter or even these threads and you see it everywhere there too. Even Phil said at the last summit on commentary that it was worse than Brawl, showing that he clearly didn't know shit but also just fueling the hatred of the lower melee community. What did Smash 4 do to deserve the hate?
>>335172487
Makes it too easy for town if they do that I guess..
>>335172487
Same. If they had, then maybe Toph would've shut the fuck up sooner and not get 1/4th of the village killed.
whale dog
>>335172487
Where did you watch it? On twitch? I noticed they uploaded everything to youtube except Mafia
>>335172487
No. That removes so much of the mind game aspect
>>335172658
Twitch VODs yah
>>335172604
Dude
Literally spelled to you
Memes
>lower level communities
Memers on the same level than flaseflaggers.
>>335172604
Can you not start this whole debate right now? There are countless other smash threads to talk about this in every day.
>>335172719
But there are no mind games here, they just keep killing random people for no reason other than a wild guess
HOLY SHIT SONG NOW
>>335172604
It fills me with hatred that some people even consider playing the shitfest that Smash 4 is. I manage to stay sane most of the time but I understand that some people may need to shitpost in twitch chat/twitter/etc to vent their rage.
>>335170462
Melee is the best game ever thats why.
Plus most modern vidya is pretty shitty.
Rather git gud at melee than play the new dudebro fps.
>>335172604
The people getting triggered at a Brawl joke is the problem here. Everyone knows the story behind Brawl, top Brawl players also make fun of the fact that the game was made with the goal of killing competition in it.
Just falseflaggers and memers that take it too far, and other flasflaggers and dense people that take it too personal.
>>335172604
It IS wrose than brawl you cocksucking faggot.
Why is everyone ragging on this not-smash game that was being played, it's obvious it's borrowing heavily from smash
holy shit does anyone have the song name?
Reply to this post when Melee starts
What's it like seeing the world through Westballz's eyes?
>>335171969
It's fucking twitch chat.
If you go to actual locals most people actually play both since both games are fun.
Even than most people really don't care if you play one over the other.
>>335173275
Don't tell me what to do
>>335172604
Tr4sh is worse than brawl, yeah.
>>335173275
2:30 just like it says in the op
>>335173469
And am I supossed to guess the timezone?
>>335173621
just use google you fucking worthless baby
>>335173621
forgot to tell you that they are streaming from their secret location in Hawaii
>>335172604
Most people don't actually care. There's a competitive scene for both and they coexist and major tournaments just fine. It's just retards online who insist on arguing about it all the time.
>>335173275
Read the OP.
>>335173212
Because they're retards who can't read a schedule.
>>335173621
You're supposed to watch the stream and notice when they show the local time.
>>335173621
It's PST, the event is in cali so all official times will be in that timezone.
>>335172487
This
LETS FUCKING GO KRAGG
whens melee
rivals of aether is not entertaining desu
ResidentSleeper
>>335170649
It would look good, if the art wasn't such garbage.
>>335174553
Still 2:30
this is worse than shared controller
>>335174746
what the fuck am i supposed to do with "2:30"???
>>335174553
>rivals of aether is not entertaining
Are you gay, or are you retarded?
>>335174553
>>335175301
you would like it if you played it before
once you understand the depth of the mechanics and each characters unique specials than you seriously udnrestand why it's the next best platform-fighter after melee
>>335175428
Be happy that you got any information at all for your lazy ass.
>>335175428
230 PST, that's 8 hours behind your dumb eurocuck time
>>335175450
Not that guy but there isn't much exciting about this gameplay
>>335176025
How are they playing with GCN controllers? Does the wii u adapter work on PC?
ESAM DUCK MONEY MATCH
GET IN HERE
DUCK VS ESAM COMING UP NEXT
>>335175481
I don't think it's bad but I have played it and don't enjoy it because off no block and no ledge
>>335176110
is this a serious question?
Duck is so based
>>335176025
>game modeled directly after smash isn't exciting
wew lads
LETS GO DUCK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJjFgJiz5gA
>>335176174
Yes
>samus ditto
sounds boring as fuck
>>335176110
>Does the wii u adapter work on PC?
Yes, it works fine PC. I use it to play dolphin on pc and it works perfectly.
>>335176397
the official nintendo adapter works but there's also something called mayflash adapter
>>335176348
Platform fighters and entertainment aren't exclusive. Smash 4 is an official release in the smash bros series and it sure as fuck isn't exciting
>>335176547
mayflash adapter is also just $15
http://www.amazon.com/Mayflash-GameCube-Controller-Adapter-Port/dp/B00RSXRLUE
>>335176468
>>335176547
Thanks. Didn't think Nintendo would let their official adapter work on PC so I didn't know if there was something else you needed.
>>335176352
>if i take a single percent i will literally set my controller on fire
do we get to watch the controller burn?
>>335176348
But they aren't the same.
Is this best of 9?
>>335176665
the mayflash adapter existed before the official adapter I think
>>335176760
the 2 port did, 4 port was released after the official one
>>335176348
>>game modeled directly after smash isn't exciting
see: smash 64, brawl, smash 4
>>335176754
if it is ESAM has no chance.
>>335176852
>64 isn't exciting
Correct about the others though
>>335176852
If you don't find 64 exciting you were probably still pissing in diapers when it came out
>>335176959
I don't know what tournament it was but the last major I watched was full of chinks and it was boring as fuck
How cucked will meleefags be if esam wins?
>>335177017
Genesis 3? yeah unfortuantely there was a Jigglypuff in Grand Finals
>>335177086
Yeah that was it.
>>335177039
I don't understand what esam winning has to do with melee players' wives having sex with other men
>>335177039
ESAM has a 0% chance of winning dude. Duck just fucked Hugo up at Fight Pitt, who is a MUCH better Samus, and much more defensive.
"wobbles is the only father figure in my life"
we /e-sports/ now
Oh god that tweets video was great
>>335177086
I never watch 64 but I watched G3, it was fun when wizzrobe wasn't playing.
>>335177381
>he doesn't want to sit in wobbles lap and feel his beard
pleb
>>335177381
I've actually been watching his stream a lot lately and he has a really calming presence that just makes ya wanna snuggle up and play melee
>>335177186
Well he is fucking PPMD's ex so there's that
>"here's some fatherly advice, get a different one."
what did he mean by this?
did wobbles have a hard life?
HOLY SHIT https://twitter.com/danfornace/status/723622017673482246

when will this event actually have melee
>>335177680
Was any of you doubting that they paid BTS to get their game to the stream?
>>335177680
The guy also dropped a boatload of steam keys in the twitch chat for the Zet skin
Seems like a great dev
>>335162372
wtf is this? no losers?
>>335177680
they should fire the artist who makes such trash
>>335177843
When you read the fucking schedule
>>335177890
nah just didn't post losers.
winner's is much easier to guess
>>335177941
That doesn't change the fact that nobody wants to watch this indie shit.
>>335177907
This, I'd like the game more if it wasn't lazy, bland pixelshit
>>335177843
after the break there's going to be a best of 9 samus ditto taht will literally take a minimum of an hour no joke.
>>335177887
yeah he is. Fun story, shortly after game came out of Early Access, matchmaking broke so people kept getting matched against me specifically, even though I wasn't online. He fixed it within a day, and even named the update after me. Cool guy.
>>335177680
That dev sucks mango cock hard lel.
>>335178029
>check schedule
>see what time the real melee events start
>tune in at that time
wow so hard
>>335177680
but why not make the skin based on a country that's good at smash
>>335178132
Who doesn't it's kind of ridiculous
>>335178132
I remember a point in Mang0's stream where he played the game like 2 weeks in a row. Must have given the dev a lot of goodwill towards him.
>>335178090
That's cool. The minute the game goes $10 or less i'll pull the plug. Really love how the characters can influence the stages, and most of the mechanics are pretty close to melee's.
>>335176959
64 is more boring than brawl. it's 5 stocks and jiggs is good in that game.
>>335178707
jiggs isn't that great in 64. Maybe like 4th or 5th best.
>>335176959
64 can be pretty fucking boring depending on the match up and it's 5 stock at that so those boring match ups make much more of an impression than the good ones.
>2:31

why did i even wake up?
