Smasher:Laudandus: Difference between revisions

'''Laudandus''' was a ''[[Melee]]'' {{SSBM|Sheik}} main from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania who is currently residing in Mountain View, California. His initial accolades included gaining prominence from winning the original NorCal Arcadian in 2014, then placing well at several major tournaments, most notably placing 5th at [[Pound 2016]], 7th at [[DreamHack Austin 2017]], and 25th at [[EVO 2015]], [[GENESIS 3]], and [[EVO 2016]]. [[Smasher:Ludwig|Lud]]and-us was formerly ranked 10th on the [[NorCal Melee Power Rankings]]. He has taken sets off of top players such as {{Sm|S2J}}, {{Sm|Westballz}}, {{Sm|Swedish Delight}}, {{Sm|n0ne}}, {{Sm|PewPewU}}, {{Sm|HugS}}, {{Sm|Crush}}, {{Sm|Nintendude}}, {{Sm|Ryan Ford}}, and {{Sm|Prince Abu}}. However, he is now known and recognized for being the individual who correctly predicted {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}'s future dominance in, and the subsequent downfall of, the competitive ''Melee'' scene.

Many a time LoudHondas claimed Captain Douglas Jay Falcon was too [[broken]] to be kept in the game, due to his ability to get air [[wobbling|wobbles]] into [[Rest]]. Many times, he warned us about Sheik's losing matchup against Captain Falcon. They laughed at him because he told the truth. And now, the ''Melee'' scene faces its biggest dilemma yet that could have been prevented had the community heeded his warnings. Captain Douglas Jay Falcon has become too powerful a presence in the ''Melee'' game itself, single-handedly removing all other characters from the game and rendering only himself playable. Rumor has it that the Captain is trying to find a way to escape ''Melee'' and enter the real world, intent on continuing his dominance there by air wobbling all 7.53 billion people on the planet into Rest. And his first target will be none other than the prophet who predicted this destruction in the first place.

Because of this, LordAndes has taken refuge in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' community, where he mains {{SSBU|Palutena}}, and has become one of the best Palutena players in Northern California, in hopes of finding a way to combat the power of ''Melee'' Captain Falcon. He was formerly ranked 16th on the [[NorCal Power Rankings|NorCal Smash Ultimate Power Rankings]] and has wins over players such as {{Sm|Lui$}}, {{Sm|Virus|p=NorCal}}, and {{Sm|3xA}}. We can only wait and see if his efforts will prove fruitful in stopping the knee of justice.
