1. The Goat
Joseph "Mang0" Marquez is known as one of the best super smash brothers melee players of all time. On top of that, he is also personally my favorite player to ever play the game as well. Mang0 is the player in Melee that I think everyone really really wants to be. He isn't one of the really smart players that knows all the frame data and percentage timing and what not. He is a player that has so much experience through out the years with the game that he has a sense of what he knows will or wont work. A lot of players rely on knowing exactly what times to do things and having a game plan from the start. Mang0 doesn't do any of that, he goes into games almost completely blind and just finds his way around how the opponent is playing. He is always so unpredictable and fast with his movements, and his punishes are always harsh and long that the other player won't get to do anything for a solid 10 seconds. He has nicknames of The Goat(Greatest Of All Time), The kid, the nonsleeper of thee, and so on. He is also probably one of the most winningest players through out its competitive history as well. Lately Mang0 has been kind of in a slump, but that is to be expected with the progression of the game and the players of it. Mang0 plays on team Cloud 9 and gets to play this game for a living and travel the country going from tournament to tournament. He's also known as being a very large gambling advocate and a very large fan of alcohol. Especially the 40 oz. Although he may seem like a good for nothing video game player, Mang0 actually has a child with his girlfriend and is doing pretty well for himself at this point in life. The future for Mang0 is a very tough thing to distinguish. He is a very "spotty" kind of player, is he shows up to a tournament and is playing well there is almost no one in the world that will be able to stop him. Though, he can get in a weird mindset or for whatever reason not be playing at his 100% normal rate. But, as Mang0 has said before, you gotta be a gambling man to vote on the kid.
