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 showing that MagicScrumpy had copied exact data values from ''[[Melee: SD Remix]]'' for his "Rebalancing Melee" series and claimed them as his own. Ripple884 claimed that he had plagiarized from ''SD Remix''{{'}}s {{SSBM|Zelda}}, {{SSBM|Link}}, {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBM|Ness}}, {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}, and {{SSBM|Bowser}}; of particular note was his plagiarism of a mistake that the ''SD Remix'' team had made involving an attempt to make Link's [[up smash]] connect properly. This would only further damage his reputation in the competitive ''Melee'' community, particularly because he had previously criticized ''SD Remix'' at the outset of his series for making characters too powerful. | 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 showing that MagicScrumpy had copied exact data values from ''[[Melee: SD Remix]]'' for his "Rebalancing Melee" series and claimed them as his own.

Following these accusations, scrumpy removed the download links for each of the plagiarized "Rebalanced" characters, but did not make a statement addressing the controversy. | Following these accusations, scrumpy removed the download links for each of the plagiarized "Rebalanced" characters, but did not make a statement addressing the controversy. The majority of his videos were hidden from the channel years later after the issue was brought to light again in 2021, and the channel remains abandoned. | ||
