==Controversy==
===600 Hours and TAS===
On November 13th, 2016, [[Reddit]] user _quote made a [https://www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/5cp2ei/daily_discussion_thread_111316/d9yhpax/?st=j2xxbyzn&sh=09ab6d3e comment] on the r/SSBM Daily Discussion Thread about his suspicion over 600 Hours' validity. They stated that the timer values were all similar and the opponents did similar things that were done by CPUs in his TAS videos. They also said that everything scrumpy went for was unsafe and he NEVER misses a move the entire combo video. Scrumpy says that he is nowhere near good at the game in the description, but what is demonstrated in the video would disagree with that, as not even human reaction is as good as that. There are also nearly no stale moves in the video, which would imply not a full match was played. However, none of this was solid evidence and was instead just reasons to be suspicious. Then, on November 15, 2016, another [https://www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/5d5lqo/i_think_i_have_nearly_conclusive_proof_that_600/?st=j2xx9k7a&sh=8a2037f9 post] came out on r/SSBM by Pwnemon proving that there are little to none stale moves in the entire video and compared the to stale combos, with some checkups by Practical_TAS in the comments. Finally, on November 25, 2016, Practical_TAS made a [https://www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/5ekzfe/my_last_words_on_magicscrumpys_young_link_the/?st=j2xx97ps&sh=12084834 post] on r/SSBM with proof that the values in the combo video are all incredibly rare if not faked, which he implies they are. Since the business was over, mods of r/SSBM decided to ban 600 Hours threads. For a while, it seemed that scrumpy would not reply, until [https://www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/5ekzfe/my_last_words_on_magicscrumpys_young_link_the/dadiwiz/?st=j2xy14u2&sh=87bbcd49 screenshots] from his public Discord server were posted of him acting inappropriately. He said that he was being attacked and instead of directly responding, he'll add non-skipable ads on the video to maximize profit off of the drama. He also said that he felt like "selling out" (his words, not mine) to Smash 4, and blamed the entire thing on drama instead of his actions. It was also revealed that he submitted the combo video for a $100 (USD) cash prize. He did not win, but it was wrong of him to steal the money. Months later, on March 2, 2017, scrumpy [https://twitter.com/magicscrumpy/status/837213295669051392 tweeted] a Pastebin link about his response. He said that only some of the clips were TASed, some were staged, and some were real. The reason for faking some clips was because the song he wanted to use was too long and he didn't want to throw away his clips. He also said that he was unaware of a cash price for the tournament. This response was highly critised however. Many said that they didn't believe that only some clips were TAS, and this was because he never said what was TAS and what was staged and what was real. This was probably because it would've been proven wrong. There was also no reason to go through the trouble of staging a combo with a friend if he could just set timer values and TAS a combo. People also didn't believe he didn't know there was a cash prize, because that would've been in the description and comments for the tournament. A Steam private message also surfaced in the replies of the tweet of him saying it wasn't TAS, even after the accusations. In the end, this situation has been a huge blow on scrumpy's reputation and some view him as a liar because of this.

===SD Remix Plagiarism===
On November 29th, 2016, Reddit user Ripple884 posted a [https://www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/5fkeg7/magic_scrumpy_has_been_copying_values_from_sd/?st=j2xx94qj&sh=31f24153 thread] onto r/SSBM exposing scrumpy for copying the exact values from the mod SD Remix for his Rebalancing Melee series and claiming them as his own. The characters with unoriginal changes were Zelda, Link, Donkey Kong, Ness, Game & Watch, Bowser, and DK. This means the only characters with original changes were Kirby, Roy, and Ganondorf (an already borderline viable character).
