People make tweets like this and then wonder why half the Supermajors for Smash that used to exist are gone I don’t think y’all have any idea how expensive it is to run a 3-day tournament of that size. If you knew how much just Wi-Fi costs the venue for the weekend you’d faint

Hold on a second, what's wrong with enjoying wevans vs Llod publicly?
Listen Ed, I like you as a person, have repeatedly stated that my only beef with you is over the z-jump stuff given your incredibly lackluster track record (enjoying Wevans vs. lloD publicly, talking about how that's how melee should be played when lloD literally z-jumps) The clip you're seeing is with respect to me being able to do this without hand pain for the first time, which made me absolutely elated because my hands are just ... large, no other way to phrase it. You can have your opinions on z-jump, and that's fine. You can call out my legacy, and that's also fine, I'm happy with my career and have no real desire to try to prove you otherwise because I'm content with what I've done. My issue here comes with you crossing a clear personal line about my role as a top player. I've actively tried to take a step back due to the amount of negative press I've garnered and I don't believe it to be good for the community, but what you're doing is perhaps the most egregious example of hypocrisy I've ever seen. The community is undoubtedly plagued by drama, divisiveness, and general negative sentiments towards a lot of people, whether or not you want to see it. Trying to start something over this publicly is wild, and we talked about controller mods a year ago, and nothing happened. I don't believe it ever will, because there's too many crossroads to go outright ban 1-to-1 remaps, but if I'm wrong, awesome! I really wouldn't mind either way. Calling my behavior anti top player is hilarious, the role of a top player should be to try to get people into the game, make it inviting, and accessible to people. What you're doing is directly contradicting that, and is unabashedly insulting to the work I've put in absent z-jump discourse. I'm sorry you feel so strongly about z-jump, but maybe if you're so concerned with your in game performance, you should learn to tech chase and not play like a fucking degenerate before you call out someone who has invested more time into his craft than you will likely in your entire life. Maybe invest that time into trying to find ways to welcome people into the community and play games in the way they see fit, not start crusades about a video I made about z jumping when I was excited to experience it without hand pain, regardless of whether it directly impacts the game or not. Have a wonderful day Ed, I hope you're feeling better.

Thanks to everyone that has supported and believed in me! It’s been a crazy and challenging journey. Going from 93 last year to now 31 is crazy. Let’s see what 2026 brings 👀

Maybe you should have gone to the funeral in person to speak your mind? Why weren't you there? You can't pay respects but you can speak for the people that actually were there? I had no problem with it. At least he tried to help Aziz while he was still alive.
this technicals speech at hax's wake is fucking terrible dude. co-opting someone's WAKE to fight woke is an insane low that i can barely comprehend but i guess that's bro

Wish I had spoken up more before but fwiw there were plenty of top players and members of the community who thought Hax should’ve been unbanned a long, long time ago. Many players can’t afford damage to their reputation or tried to help in their own ways outside of twitter. 1/2

Obviously don’t harass/insult them but you absolutely SHOULD blame TOs and people defending the ban. It’s pretty sickening seeing people still try to justify it or pretend only outsiders disagree. At some point it didn’t help anybody. Genuinely hope there’s reform and may Hax RIP

I strongly feel more than anything that people should never forget this last bit of detail. This is quite literally the WORST case scenario turned into a reality and I can't get Aziz's final moments on this earth out of my head. Oh. My. God. My heart is bleeding black over this.
i spoke to hax's mom, she thanked me for being a good friend towards aziz, he spoke of me often. I asked cause of death... it was a "broken heart, he cried a lot towards the end, and most people didn't understand how much he loved being a gamer, it was his passion in life" :/

I'm heartbroken. Abdulaziz is fighting for his life, and we need your help. Please consider supporting his family during this unimaginable time. Every bit counts. Share and donate. ♥ gofund.me/3a69dda1
