From SmashWiki, the Super Smash Bros. wiki
Kiyarash, formerly known as GamingHI9X9, is a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Luigi player from Iran who currently resides in Northern California. He was first known for his performances and notoriety during the online metagame, which includes becoming the runner-up at the SWT: NA Southwest Ultimate Online Qualifier. He later qualified for the Smash World Tour 2021 Championships, where he took a set off Sisqui. Since then, he has become the best Luigi player in the United States in the post-pandemic metagame, notably defeating both Zomba and Peabnut at Port Priority 8, Glutonny, Dabuz, and ShinyMark at LVL UP EXPO 2025, and Lima at GENESIS: BLACK at Guildhouse.

- Kiyarash became popular after getting featured on ZeRo's YouTube for defeating Wishes 2-1 in a Wi-Fi tournament. During the set, Wishes proceeded to insult him which earned him strong condemnation from many other players.
- Kiyarash has the nickname "Future of Smash", due to a rap battle in which he states, "My name is Kiyarash - the Future of Smash".
- On May 13th, 2021, following his victory over ChunkyKong in a first to 5, Kiyarash shouted insults that contained profanity at his opponent, resulting in him getting kicked off of Hungrybox's Discord server's voice channel. He later rejoined the stream to briefly say "I apologize to nobody." These insults and his response[1] have since become memes in the community, with top players such as Maister changing their profile pictures to Luigi in response.
