Dark is a Fox main from Chile, considered to be one of the top Melee Fox players in the country. He is currently ranked 5th on the Chilean Power Rankings.

He has tournament wins over players like Roche, Gino, Aisengobay and n0ne.

Playing style[edit]

Dark is known for being very fast, flashy, and nearly frame perfect, to the point of being considered one of the most technical players in the entire world. He is known for his lethal punish and edgeguarding game, especially against other fastfallers, and exploits the unique properties of each stage to their fullest. His extreme consistency at wall infinites, in particular, gave a strong case for many previously legal stages, such as Princess Peach's Castle, to be universally banned in tournaments.

While his style consist on overwhelming the opponent with his technical prowess, Dark was known to have a weaker neutral game and slower adaptation than other professionals.
