Elegant is an SSBU Luigi player from Irvine, California who is currently residing in Chino Hills, California, and is considered the best Luigi player in the world. Elegant took set wins off of players such as Light, Shuton, ESAM, ScAtt, Cosmos, Samsora, Tsu, Raito, Abadango, yeti, and Nicko. He is currently ranked 2nd on the SoCal Ultimate Power Rankings and 32nd on the Fall 2019 PGRU.

Elegant is also a prominent SSB4 Luigi player who is considered as the best SSB4 Luigi player in the world. Elegant is currently ranked 5th on the SoCal All-Time Smash 4 Power Rankings and 27th on the Panda Global Rankings 100. He was formerly ranked at the 0 spot on the NorCal Smash 4 Power Rankings. He has taken sets off of top players such as Salem, Nairo, MkLeo, Larry Lurr, KEN, VoiD, Mr.R, Ally, Abadango, Light, and komorikiri.

He used to regularly team with Aarvark in Doubles, and the pair was considered one of the best Doubles teams in the world. More recently, he has shown great skill in Doubles with a variety of players, winning Get On My Level 2018 with SuperGirlKels, 2GG: Hyrule Saga with Stroder, Low Tier City 6 with Samsora, and The Big House 8 with BestNess.

On March 22nd, 2017, both Elegant and Aarvark were signed by Beefy Smash Doods.[1] Over a year later, on April 13th, 2018, Elegant, along with fellow smashers Aarvark, quiK, and Izaw, parted ways with Beefy Smash Doods.[2] On May 31st, 2018, Elegant was sponsored by Unseen Gaming.[3] Sometime afterwards, he parted ways with Unseen. On July 12th, Elegant signed with Nevermore eSports.[4] On February 21st, 2020, Elegant announced that he had joined Armada eSports.[5]

Playstyle

Elegant's playstyle remains mostly the same from SSB4 to SSBU, and is highly characterized through his potent punish game, his quick movement, and unpredictable choices in neutral. He has a mastery of Luigi's combos and recovery, making use of his powerful grab and combo game, and offsetting the character's weak recovery by recovering in different and unusual ways. Due to the amount of combo starters Luigi has, Elegant uses these to frame trap and DI mixup his opponents, doing massive amounts of damage and potentially pulling a zero-to-death combo.

Elegant was also well known for his ability to button mash efficiently as in SSB4, Luigi's down special, Luigi Cyclone, could spike opponents only if the player could mash enough times to have Luigi move up to not trigger the final hit. As Elegant was proficient as this technique, his edge guarding ability was on point, allowing him to gimp players at low percent and make comebacks off of a single neutral win. However, this effect was removed from Ultimate, effectively worsening the power of the move. Although the nerf removed Luigi Cylone's ability to gimp, Elegant uses Luigi's newly added tether to edge guard, and makes use of Luigi Cylone's newly added trait of having invincibility within the first frames of the move. He uses this to combo break his opponents, kill off the top of the stage, brute force his way through an opponent, or to cover the ledge.
