Okay, picture this: You’re watching a Super Smash Bros. Melee tournament, and bam! Suddenly, the whole match gets flipped upside down because some bizarre glitch pops up. No joke. One minute you’re rooting for your guy, the next, it’s like, “Whoa, what just happened?” Anyway, there goes $2,000 down the drain thanks to a digital hiccup. I mean, seriously.
This game’s been kicking around for nearly 25 years, right? You’d think folks would’ve moved on to the shiny new stuff like Smash Bros. Ultimate on the Switch by now. But nope. These hardcore players? They’re still all about Melee, with their fancy moves and, like, laser-focused streams. Kind of a testament to how this game just won’t quit, huh?
So, over the weekend of May 16 (mark your calendars… or don’t), there was this Full House 2025 tournament. Picture Kurtis “Moky” Pratt facing off against Cody Schwab. High stakes, big prize. They’re both playing as Fox McCloud — why not switch it up, huh? — on Pokemon Stadium. Now, things are going smooth until, out of nowhere, Moky ends up gifting Schwab the win. It’s like, “Here, have my two grand,” all because he accidentally fell through the stage. Classic glitch city.
Now, in the background, you can hear Hungrybox (yes, that Hungrybox) giving a play-by-play. Odd how he mentions the stage risk just before Moky goes full Houdini through the floor. It’s spooky timing. And then Hungrybox, bless his heart, goes and calls it the “greatest commentator curse of all time.” Hard agree there.
Both these guys are top names in the scene, Moky’s fourth and Schwab’s nipping at second on the SSBMRank. They’ve been around the block, you know? They must’ve seen the glitch coming; maybe it just snuck up on Moky. Who can say? Even with that wild card moment, they both seemed to take it on the chin, laughing it off. I guess when you’re that good, glitches just add spice to your victory pie.
It’s a bummer we didn’t get the match’s real ending, but hey, there’s always next time. Given their rankings, this probably isn’t the last round we’ll see them in. Here’s hoping the next match stays glitch-free — fingers crossed.
