Biography
During the summer of 2007, Swift traveled the east coast competing in various amounts of major and local tourneys. His travels compared to Pennsylvania smashers (and probably most smashers) is dwarfed only by the travels of Velocity and Cactuar. It is only this summer that Swift has made a name for himself in the smash community. He is also known to travel great distances to local tourneys due to his competitive nature and enjoyment of the smash community. Through his travels, he has made a close bond with the TSA members and sometimes is confused to be a TSA member from New Jersey. At the last major tourney (VLS), Swift placed 25th out of 188 entrants, placing second highest out of all PA smashers (tied with Cactuar for 25th). These days, Swift can be found hosting monthly tournaments at Hall of Gaming in Wallingford, CT and attending biweeklies at the same location.
Swift is currently ranked 5th on the New England Melee Power Rankings and 10th on the NYC Metropolitan Area Melee Power Rankings.
