HFIL wouldn't be what it is without Akira Toriyama. From our name's origin, holding shot and just general childhood interests all came from this man's vision and creation from Dragonball. We wish him nothing but the best in Upper World and we will all miss him dearly.

Smash has changed. Its no longer about spacing, tilt attacks , or dash cancels. It's an endless series of proxy battles fought by Mercenaries and Losers. Smash - and its consumption of life - has become a well-oiled machine.
