Oh man, you ever have one of those days where everything just goes off the rails? That was kinda what happened at this Super Smash Bros. Melee tournament. Picture this: it’s the finals, right? Intense, sweaty palms kinda deal, and then—BAM—some random glitch turns everything upside down. Imagine the heartbreak, losing out on that $2,000 prize! Like, you gotta wonder, was it fate or just the universe having a laugh? Who knows.
So, Super Smash Bros. Melee, right? It’s like, pushing 25 years old, but folks are still out there, throwing down with it like it’s 1999 or something. Meanwhile, the cool kids are all about “Ultimate” on Switch. But nah, these players, they’re all about the OG challenge. Like, why move on when there’s so much still to master?
So, during this Full House 2025 tourney, Moky and Cody Schwab—two dudes known by everyone who’s anyone in this scene—they’re playing Fox McClouds on Pokemon Stadium. It’s like an epic showdown, all setup for this iconic battle—until Moky suddenly slips into nightmare land. He falls out of the tree or something; it’s all a bit Matrix-y, and the prize pretty much auto-ships to Schwab. It’s like the battle against the game itself, which sometimes has plans of its own.
And here’s a twist, there’s Hungrybox, another Smash legend, casually commentating on dangers, and BAM! Moky does exactly that—falls through. Greatest commentator curse ever, that’s what Hungrybox called it later. You think you’ve seen it all, and then the game goes, “Surprise!”
But hey, these guys, Moky and Cody—they’re pros. They’ve got rankings to prove it. No hard feelings; they’re laughing it off, which is super chill, honestly. You just know they’ll clash again. The scene, the game, it’s unpredictable like a blender, and that’s honestly part of the draw, if you ask me.
