From SmashWiki, the Super Smash Bros. wiki
Ripple is a smasher from Champaign, Illinois. He is one of the longest-active Project M players, having been competing since 2012 during the demo period of the mod. He is considered to be one of the greatest King Dedede players in Project M, having placed top 8 at both The Big House 4 and Tipped Off 11, and was the highest-ranking King Dedede player during this time, being ranked 29th on the PMRank 2016 and retroactively considered a top 20 player in 2014. After a period in the early-2020s where he primarily competed online, he returned to regularly competing offline in 2023, becoming an honorable mention on that year's PMRank before making his return to the rankings in the following year's iteration. Though he mainly played King Dedede during this time, he eventually picked up Samus as a co-main and is considered the second-best Samus player in Project+, after Morsecode762, and achieved a career high ranking on the PMRank 2025 with both characters, where he ranked 26th. Due to his long-term success, he was ranked 51st on the Project M/+ All Time Top 100.
Outside of competing, Ripple is also part of the Melee: SD Remix and Project+ development teams.
