HugS was a significant contender in the {{Trn|MLG 2006|series}}; he placed in top 8 at {{Trn|MLG Anaheim 2006}} and {{Trn|MLG Orlando 2006}}, upsetting {{Sm|PC Chris}} early in losers' bracket at the latter tournament. At {{Trn|MLG New York Playoffs 2006}}, he placed 8th, successfully qualifying for the MLG 2006 singles championships. He eventually placed 8th at {{Trn|MLG Las Vegas 2006}}, losing to {{Sm|Ken}} and then to {{Sm|Mew2King}}. One year later, he placed 2nd at {{Trn|EVO World 2007}}, narrowly losing to Ken in grand finals. He was picked up by Frequency Gaming on July 3rd, 2014 until their dissolution on February 14th, 2015.

*The community often jokes around with the phrase "Nice Shot Hugo", as at times, he will either miss his target or fire completely in the other direction.

*He is also on the receiving end of another meme, as whenever {{Sm|ChuDat}} beats him at a major tourney, ChuDat posts the phrase "I whoopedu hugs86" on his twitter with a girl at the tourney.
