'''DaShizWiz''' is a {{SSBM|Falco}} player from Florida, who was considered to be one of the best Falco mains in the world in the pre-[[platinum age]] era, and was still a very strong Falco player after, being formerly ranked 74th on the [[2018 MPGR]]. Influenced by {{Sm|Bombsoldier}}'s videos and by fellow Falco main {{Sm|Lambchops}}' coaching, he improved very quickly and became very successful in the ''Melee'' scene. In his career, he has taken sets off of top players such as {{Sm|Westballz}}, {{Sm|Swedish Delight}}, {{Sm|Gahtzu}}, {{Sm|Hax}}, {{Sm|ChuDat}}, {{Sm|Chillin}}, {{Sm|Abate}}, and {{Sm|aMSa}}, and has had very close and intense sets against the likes of {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|Dr. PeePee}}, and {{Sm|Mew2King}}. At [[FAST 1]], he managed to 3-stock and 2-stock Mew2King in tournament; although he ended up losing the set, he only lost to Mew2King by one stock each time. They played again in Losers' Finals at the first [[Revival of Melee]] in another intense set, where Mew2King defeated him 3-1. The [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qna80MbcAAc fourth and final match] in particular is one of the most viewed competitive ''Smash'' videos to date, and is often seen as one of the greatest matches of all time.

After a hiatus, Shiz returned to the ''Melee'' scene in 2015. His big return to form was with his [[Paragon Orlando 2015]] attendance, where he swept through his pool and garnered himself a solid 25th place finish in the main bracket. This return from hiatus was relatively short-lived due to several controversies he was involved in, which prompted responses from several top-players and tournament organizers.  
After a hiatus, Shiz returned to the Melee scene in 2015. His big return to form was with his [[Paragon Orlando 2015]] attendance, where he swept through his pool and garnered himself a solid 25th place finish in the main bracket. This return from hiatus was relatively short-lived due to a number of personal reasons, including some controversial run-ins with the law, which prompted responses from a number of top-players.  


Shiz returned to the ''Melee'' scene once again in 2017. While many still have doubts about Shiz and his behavior, he has been allowed to compete in major tournaments like [[EVO 2017]] and [[Too Hot to Handle]], where he was able to upset {{Sm|Gahtzu}} and {{Sm|Swedish Delight}} respectively. While DaShizWiz is largely inactive, he occasionally streams and has mentioned that he plans to attend more tournaments in the future.
While this was certainly a setback for Shiz, he returned to the Melee scene once again in 2017. While many still have doubts about Shiz and his behavior, he has been allowed to compete in major tournaments like [[EVO 2017]], and [[Too Hot to Handle]] where he was able to upset {{Sm|Gahtzu}} and {{Sm|Swedish Delight}} respectively. While DaShizWiz is not as active as he was before, he does have an active stream and plans to attend more tournaments in the future.
