gfycat.comI thought he retired?

nobody retires from melee

Except Matt Deezie, who now works for capcom

he took a "break" than came and won SSS, something tells me that he was still playing thr whole time

you can take a break from tournaments but I swear a Melee player will still practice tech skill in their spare time

It's that weird situation that guys like Mike Haze, Alex19, and Lucky constantly face. They're really good at Melee, but live near some of the absolute greatest at Melee, so they can't seem to break through in any meaningful way. Sure they have fans, but they'll never move on to a higher level of competition. As a fan of Lucky, I'd love to be wrong.

lucky is a top 15 player. There's no way you can say he cant break through to a higher level when he already competes with the best players in the world.

That's a fair point. Lucky is definitely leagues better than the other players I mentioned, at least in terms of results.

Mike haze is also relatively new as far as calling him on the comeup. Hes been around forever but only recently started leveling up

Breaking through for him would be consistently beating the top 6, since he's already beaten most of them inconsistently.

Holy shit.

I saw him practicing those on stream almost all the time. Cool that it served him well as... practice?

I don't understand this comment. It's important to understand fox's shorten lengths and to be able to do them on command.

Ah, okay. I didn't understand the reason for them.

Recovering.

It's the most consecutive edge cancels I've seen personally, thought you guys might enjoy!
