EVO 2015: Smash Bros. Melee Champion Crowned
Adam Lindgren, better known to Smash players as ‘ARMADA’, is recognized as Europe’s top Smash Bros. Melee player and the best Peach main across the globe. He can now add ‘Evo Champion’ to his already impressive resume as he is the new EVO 2015 Melee Champion after defeting Juan Manuel Debiedma (aka: HUNGRYBOX), three games to two in grand finals. Armada is also the first non-American to win the Melee EVO title, something many predicted CEO 2015 Melee Champion William ‘Leffen’ Hjelte would do.
Aramada’s previous outings in EVO saw him finish in 4th place in 2013 and 3rd place in 2014.
On a bit of a hilarious side note, Joseph ‘Mang0’ Marquez tossed his 5th place medal into the EVO crowd; clearly, the two-time champion was not happy with his finish at this year’s tournament.
