Nathan Lou wait hbox father passed away?

Living is Pain Yea, after he won Dreamhack 2015 he said "My dad just passed away -- it was my biological dad. I know it's personal stuff, but he told me you'll never be the best. You'll be good, but you'll never be the best. So, I hope he sees me now." in an interview. I assume thats the reason he pointed up right before being handed the trophy.

Fucking almost cried reading this comment just after he won in the video @kiburedo Shiyosha

Cuticles and

Kiburedo Shiyosha Wow I was happy for him before I read this comment but I had no idea winning this was such a huge deal for him mentally.

damn

3:03

LMAO

Bro, I saw this comment literally as it was happening on screen lmfaooooo

LOL

I’d like to think at 2:38 he was contemplating how he lost to Hbox, but after thinking about how much that win means to Hbox he went over there for the fist bump. These guys knew each other very well.

Yeah there's a lot of moments you can remember Armada for, but this moment of humility in his defeat cements him as one of the most legendary smash players.

Hahhaha xD.

Please don't say xd

He gave himself a free Evo

the fact that it went 10 games means that it was the least free evo he could've given himself

Frevos

Pancake3213 tastes it a lot now lol

PPMD wants to have a word with ya.

and salt. lots of salt.

Uhhh...Evo 2013, Genesis 1, to name some iconic moments of Armada being defeated....

mrm64 he is talking about 2015 and 2016 he is talking about the dominant Armada era

Yeah, Hbox has become so aggro and no one can play Puff like him and at that level. Anyone who tries to say that Puff is a gimme character has to realize - no one else places high like Hbox with the character.

yea its hilarious that people say "he isnt as good at the game and wins with gimmicks" like its unreal that people think that. They act like anyone can pick up puff and start winning tournaments

Vovelgravity Incorrect. HBox misses very rarely. They're basically guaranteed.

That just means his skill as a player. It's still a 50/50. If he misses, he WILL get punished badly.

***** So it's not a 50/50 if you're good. -.-

look at evo 2013 compared to now everyone looked so happy back then

west was pretty happy on twitter afterwards

+Jerico Magsino that's because in 2013 there were naturally smiling people in top 8, like shroomed and PPMD. That's just my POV though.

+XRedKirbyX to be fair top players are never going to be content with anything but first

I agree. I doubt top players will ever be truly content with anything but first, but I think in 2013, people were still euphoric just being at being at such a big tournament. Now, the feeling of being in tournaments, even Evo, is like... something they must accomplish, rather than something they can have fun in. Hopefully in the future, that'll change with new faces who are truly appreciative for just making it to top 8.

Austin Fulco no. nobody collapses and cries when they lose. if anything, they get mad.

Some people do.

If they do, they are either a child, or a clown doing it for attention.

taylor sims - melee is many of these people’s jobs and they make a their money from it. Anyone would get mad if something detrimental happened to their job, tournament results are no exception.

well I mean it is the worlds biggest stage and it's happened before from people that aren't clowning around or doing it for attention (an example: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/itRnpMiX1tDFeac.html)

its the leather jacket, total villian

Except that he's a really good and decent man, and Hbox is extremely arrogant now after winning EVO and quitting his job.

GravityBlast how is that arrogant? he's chasing his dreams and having fun doing it? hes not being arrogant.

Not here, i mean in general.

Wtf armada is such a nice guy

+TheUnknownMartin well he did said top 5

+ TheUknownedMartin009 S2J is a fucking rock, lol. But I like his attitude regarding everything. Always seems to be very calm and collected.

6 years later and i hope life’s been going good for you king 👑

I see this posted a lot but 2016 was probably the best year I had since 2006.

3:02 LoL

Thanks i'm glad you enjoy them

Melted Potatoes hi, you know the name of the song??

Amazing Shadow men please name of the song?? And Hi from venezuela??

Wycer If he's a good father he's happy he was proved wrong.

Wycer I don't think his father deserves heaven

FR!

yea i'm still alive i miss you guys too

Did you miss me?

+Pop Magoot Hey I played you on Anthers probably a year ago! I think you used DK

I did and I still do! Nice to see someone recognize me.

FireEmblem27 he's the only God now PPMD had to quit tournaments because of health problems Mew2King started streaming other games Armada retired because it was too much stress for him and Mang0 isn't really as dominant anymore

@@saraskyline8331 the GOAT is recovering, but he still to go for a long way to be called a god again

i love Hbox, but armada is so devastated there ;-;

He looked so sad after he sat back down :(

I don't know about the others but here's Hungrybox's interview twitter.com/YahooEsports/status/755098742810746880

+Amazing Shadow You are truly Amazing. Thanks.

That title still stands to Mang0. It will never be taken away from him.

+Xero Collosus I wouldn't really call mang0 the best right now, but it's extremely hard to tell, hbox deserves that title right now

+Blaze Taleo there is a difference from being the best right now and being the GOAT.

+Chubs the greatest of all time would probably be m2k then, over his whole career he's probably the best

Mew2King dominated Melee, then Brawl and Melee, then Melee again, and he's quickly become one of the best Smash 4 players. While he more deserves the title, Mang0 is the GOAT, just as Ken is the King. It's just his title.

you what

That was Armada And yeah why wouldn't he be? Evo is one of the most (if not *the* most) important melee tournament and to lose it could break a man's heart.. But that's how games work unfortunately.. Only one winner GG to Hbox.. He deserves it!

Ray Chand men you know the name of the song??

he beat hungrybox, made it to winners finals, lost to Armada, and then went to losers finals and lost to the guy he previously beat (hungrybox). I'd probably be upset too.

I'm late but the song is in the description Antics - Moments
