Supernova 2025 had a loopy High 8 within the greatest Tremendous Smash Bros. Melee event in historical past.
After being revealed because the second-best Melee participant on this planet within the official rankings, Zain Naghmi took a large victory at Supernova 2025, beating high gamers like Cody Schwab and Juan ‘Hungrybox’ DeBiedma.
It was a fairly straightforward run for Zain, who barely dropped any video games for everything of the weekend. He was on a roll — and when he’s on a roll, he’s fairly powerful to cease. On the Winners aspect, Zain took down Kurtis ‘moky’ Pratt 3-1 after which Cody Schwab 3-1 for a clear path to the Grand Finals.
On Losers, Cody needed to beat long-time rival Hungrybox to return to the Grand Finals to face Zain. Hungrybox had taken down Avery ‘Ginger’ Wilson, a previously retired Falco most important, to face Cody within the Losers Finals. It was a valiant backwards and forwards between Cody’s Fox and Hungrybox’s Jigglypuff, however Cody prevailed — the perfect Fox within the sport, in accordance with Hungrybox.
“I hate Fox, man,” Hungrybox ranted on X. “On EVERYTHING I’ll determine this bulls— matchup out. On the whole lot.”
This left us with a Fox versus Marth matchup for the Grand Finals. Cody would wish to win twice since he was coming from Losers, so Zain was sitting fairly as soon as once more.
Cody received the primary win, trying fairly decided to show it throughout. However Zain was not having it, utilizing his loopy down airs to expertly guard the sting, taking down Cody early. The second sport simply went to Zain.
It was a little bit of a back-and-forth, with Cody and Zain each reaching 2 video games within the first match. Would Cody carry them to the bracket reset? Not with Zain on protection, repeatedly guarding the sting with jabs, grabs, and the whole lot else he might throw at Cody’s Fox.
Zain has now gained two Supernova titles in a row. After the pop-off, Zain stated that he’s simply ‘tremendous comfortable’ to have gained, particularly since he proved the haters unsuitable. A whole lot of followers felt he could be off his sport since he was taking part in with Kirby on stream, however Zain stated it truly ‘helped a little bit.’
Both means, the observe paid off.
