<!--If you are planning to add a player you consider to be notable, please provide tournament results in some shape or form in the edit summary (be it a link to a results thread or bracket of placing high in a tournament of other notable players or a video of them beating a notable player). Winning tournaments without notable players present is generally not enough to warrant a spot.--> | |||

*{{Sm|n0ne|Canada}} - Having placed 18th on the [http://wiki.teamliquid.net/smash/SSBM_Rank 2016 SSBMRank] and having beaten a god twice in a row has made him one of the three best Falcon players, along with Wizzrobe and S2J. n0ne is the first Falcon to have beaten Mew2King in a decade, taking two sets in a row at [[Get_On_My_Level_2016|GOML 2016]] and [[UGC_Smash_Open|UGC Smash Open]]. n0ne is known for his very creative and aggressive style, as well as his high-risk/high-reward punishes. His common use of often successful reads and his multitude of mixups are what set him apart from the other top Falcons. There is also a combo known as "The n0ne" (Reverse Back Air to Knee), which n0ne says he uses a lot because it was a popular Falcon combo in Nicaragua, which is where he used to live. Although his high-risk/high-reward punishes often fail him getting back on to the stage, along with having a subpar neutral game compared to the other two, he is still considered among the best with them. He is arguably the most technical Captain Falcon player in the world. | *{{Sm|n0ne|Canada}} (#29) - Having placed 18th on the [http://wiki.teamliquid.net/smash/SSBM_Rank 2016 SSBMRank] and having beaten a god twice in a row has made him one of the three best Falcon players, along with Wizzrobe and S2J. n0ne is the first Falcon to have beaten Mew2King in a decade, taking two sets in a row at [[Get_On_My_Level_2016|GOML 2016]] and [[UGC_Smash_Open|UGC Smash Open]]. n0ne is known for his very creative and aggressive style, as well as his high-risk/high-reward punishes.
