MagiMagi is a Smasher from Northern Ireland. He initially competed in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, first as a Sheik player before switching to Mewtwo following patch 1.1.5. He was considered one of the best Smash 4 players from Northern Ireland, winning or placing in the top 3 at numerous Irish events. He broke out on the greater European scene at Albion 2, where he defeated S1 and double-eliminated Ixis to finish 3rd. Since then, he had been considered the best Mewtwo player in Europe, having placed 2nd at Ys with a win over Glutonny and 3rd at European Smash 4 Pro Circuit Invitational Final Event defeating many of Europe's best players along the way; he was eventually ranked 9th on the European Smash 4 Power Rankings. Internationally, he was known for finishing 9th at Super Smash Con 2018, in which he defeated CaptainZack, ANTi, and Eon, becoming the only British player to ever place top 16 at a Smash 4 supermajor.

Following the release of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, MagiMagi briefly changed his tag to Antheia in the early months of the game and primarily competed at local events. However, he did not compete as seriously as in Smash 4 and quit the game by 2023. He switched to primarily playing Super Smash Bros. Melee as an Ice Climbers player, and has gone on to become the second-best Ice Climbers player in Europe (behind Nicki), ranking 21st on the EURank 2025. His best performance to date was at Teaghlach, where he finished 9th after an extended losers bracket run, eliminating R23 and Tony Bomboni.

Tournament history[edit]

Before picking up Mewtwo, MagiMagi was a Sheik main who played decently at tournaments including a 13th place finish at Celtic Throwdown 2015. However after Patch 1.1.5 was released which had nerfed Sheik, MagiMagi decided to drop her and main Mewtwo. Just over a week after the patch came out, MagiMagi attended a nearby tournament called Crossover featuring some of Ireland's best players (MINT, Skarfelt, etc.). After getting sent to losers very early in the bracket, he made an impressive losers bracket run eliminating notable players such as maXy, Hackle Serpent, and Skarfelt in a shocking upset at the time before losing 0-3 to MINT in Grand Finals finishing at 2nd place.

MagiMagi's next tournament appearance would be at Newry Hosts Super Smash Bros. V: The South Strikes Back, where he managed to make it out his pool on winners side and managed to get into winners' semis, where he beat RedSlasher 2-0 before losing to Skarfelt in winners finals 1-3 and then lose to sp00n in losers finals 1-3 finishing at 3rd place.

He attended Smash the Pale 4 later that month and swept through winners bracket beating WeirdWolf 2-0, Way 2-0 to make it into winners side of Top 8 and Blue Persil 3-2 in winners semis before losing to Hackle Serpent 0-3 in winners finals and MINT 0-3 in losers finals finishing at 3rd place once again.

His most notable performance in the UK has been at Albion 2, where he upset players such as S1 and double eliminated Ixis, then went to a game 5 last hit situation with cyve before losing 2-3 finishing at 3rd.
