Juan “Hungrybox” Debiedma has achieved a remarkable milestone by securing his second title at the Super Smash Bros. Melee Genesis tournament. This victory comes after a six-year gap since his last Genesis win in 2019, solidifying his status as one of the Five Gods of Melee.

In an intense 10-game Grand Finals, Hungrybox faced off against Spain’s leading Peach player, Alvaro “Trif” Garcia Moral. The tournament, often compared to the “Superbowl” of Smash, showcased Hungrybox’s determination as he navigated a challenging bracket, which included a significant victory over the legendary Joseph “Mang0” Marquez.

Trif demonstrated exceptional skill throughout the tournament, having previously triumphed over other top competitors like Mang0 and Justin “Wizzrobe” Hallett. Despite his remarkable talent, he ultimately fell short in the finals. Since 2009, Hungrybox has been a dominant force in the Melee community, consistently ranking among the elite players and holding the number one spot from 2017 to 2019. His heartfelt performance at Genesis X2, where he visibly managed the pressure, resonated with the audience and marked a pivotal moment in his illustrious career.
