Hello, this annoying bitch from idaho again, Co creator of the upcoming Idaho Fair Melee series, near Boise ID. I will be dedicating a segment of my debut stream on twitch.tv/cabrid this Friday at 8pm mountain time to answering questions about the tournament. Details are still pending but I would love questions and feedback.
Funny blast from the past.
I have a modern gaming controller and i honestly dont want to spend money on a game cube controller. Wondering if its fine (i only play slippi).
This sub's FAQ, which was last updated with Zain vs. Hungrybox @ Shine 2018, is a little out of date. It only contains 24 sets between 2001 & 2018. Given the prestigious company these sets keep, how many new sets do you add alongside them, and which sets do you include?
This shit is more hype than EVO 2013
when I get to 1v3s in all star mode on hard. I always die. any tips? im especially bad at stages like mute city, final destination, starFox, etc.
In cashbox grandfinals, what do you guys think of the decision to restart the game but continue 3 stocks each with salt back on 57%.

I am trying to remember the song from this old DK combo video I saw years ago. The song starts out with what I can only describe as the singer saying "kong ka kong ka kong kong".
It is driving me insane...
Edit: Found it! Made in Heights - Forgiveness . Still can't find the combo video though.
This isn't meant to be a doomsdayer post, regardless of how I feel.
I loved the 5 Gods era. That's just the best this game had to offer, period. However, in terms of why this game is excellent, I think that ends up being Zain vs Cody.
Both of these guys not only play against each other the most, but they also have a really distinct humility of learning the game. When either of these guys are on point and in control, it feels so thought out and conclusive. It has felt like that before them, but these guys are just really willing to throw their ego aside and keep trying.
I think these two will be the gatekeepers for the next top players and maybe the rest of Melee. They're always willing to play.
Hello everyone!
As some of you may have noticed, smashed gg is no longer accessible. I've decided to release the domain, since this is just a hobby project without any income and .gg domains have a very high yearly cost.
The app is still available at the old domain: fyllamelee.no
I've also pushed a new patch with some fresh snacks:
New card: Lootbox
- Reveals a random card, free of charge
- Has a custom skin during Christmas!
Stage pack support (Melee only)
- We've been playing a lot with the "competitive" stage pack presented by Leffen in this video
- You can now select which stage pack to use in your matches
New font
- Also updated the font on card descriptions for better readability
Feedback and bug reports very welcome. Cheers!

You're genuinely my favorite player I've ever played against. Pretty much every game we played absolutely sent me. Those Ganon dittos went quite foolish
I'd like to play your marth with my puff again at some point, I turned my brain off for 15 seconds, and you proceeded to take 3 of my stocks without even breaking a sweat, insane gamer move
Hi r/SSBM,
This thread will serve as a walkthrough of my journey to play Super Smash Brothers Melee. It will contain the path I took to get to play the game and include pricing, hardware, and pitfalls. This is an in-progress guide.
I go by Gami online. I last played Melee circa 2016 – 2018 in Arkansas as a Captain Falcon player.
Since then I moved back home to the west coast of the U.S. in March of 2020.
A physical copy of Super Smash Brothers Melee — v1.02: Ordered from eBay: $72.52 with tax & shipping. Purchased on May 19th, 2026.
Before purchasing the copy I reviewed the eBay seller's photos and confirmed that the inner ring on the back of the disc read DOL-GALE 0-02.
I also confirmed that the case of the game was the version with the yellow "Player's Choice" banner at the top.
Nintendo Wii — Approximately $161.00 from a local store. Purchased on April 7th, 2026.
PC
[] A GameCube controller 🔎
A Controller Adapter + USB Cable — Ordered from Input Integrity for $66.01 with tax, U.S. tariffs, & shipping. Purchased on May 19th, 2026.
[] SD Card 🔎

Pitfall #1 — Some of the links in the FAQs are broken.
a. Link to https://blippi.gg should be https://melee.tv/
b. Link to the Official Smash Ultimate Controller leads to a 404 Error on Amazon.

Putting it all together
Thank you for reading this far! Looking forward to playing Melee again in the near future!

Dear Anakin, i've played you in ranked so many times its crazy. You always destroyed my puff with your fox, and i didn't know what to do. To be honest, i hated playing against you, you would always start with your secondaries, which i would sweep easily, and then you always swapped to fox and proceeded to reverse 2-1 me. Every. Single. Time. It was like 2015-2016, me as an Hbox, and you as Armada, with his powerful fox, which i couldn't figure out yet. I screamed, i raged, i even punched myself in the face after losing to you over, and over, and over again. But today, everything changed. We met again, and as usual I was tilted from start. You actually started with fox, and you easily 2-stocked me. Then you swapped to your sheik, which i also 2-stocked. And then it was the final game. I decided to ban PS, and we went to Yoshi's. It was a very close battle, and then on last stocks my mom came to the room and was distracting me with chores i gotta do (i did them after this game btw, i love my mom). I thought it was over, but then i grabbed the ledge while you were offstage, and you missed the Randal and SD. It was over. I finally won. I saw 28.5 points adding to my points, but that didn't matter to me.
If you, Anakin, are reading my message, i want you to know that i don't hate you, and that your Fox is the best Fox i've seen below platinum. Your neutral, your combo game is magnificent. It took me so many matches to figure out your Fox, and it was worth it. Thank you for playing me, Anakin.

p.s About the second picture, he was gold before i beat him.
I'm a bad Marth player -- still working on consistency with SHUFFL, ledgedash, etc. I'm kinda starting to learn about neutral and defense options, but when it comes to punish game and/or combos, I'm helpless. I get a grab and it goes nowhere. I hit a couple up-airs and then my opponent just double-jumps away.
I know it's important to keep working on movement and tech, but I feel like I'm missing something fundamental about punish game and combos. I don't even know what/how to practice. Anyone else struggle with this? Any tips?
I am creating a new melee tournament series/scene in Boise. I have the venue, knowhow, and soon to be, money. It will be held in a pottery center. Let me know what a good name might be. My name is cam and I'm a communist transgender woman.
Edit: uh wow. Just tell your friends, okay?
Edit 2: Idaho Fair?
