Light began actively playing {{forwiiu}} in 2016, attending events in the New England area. His initial few results were largely unremarkable, with a couple of decent placements at regional-level events, and he notably complemented his {{SSB4|Fox}} with other secondaries such as {{SSB4|Marth}}. However, throughout the year he began making waves in his home state, first by appearing on the [[Connecticut Power Rankings]] for the spring rankings as 11th, and reaching the top of the rankings by the end of the year. This climb to the top of his home state coincided with noticeable improvements in his results as he began making frequent top 8 appearances at New England regionals while taking notable New England names along the way. His best performance of the year was at {{Trn|GUMS X}}, where after falling to {{Sm|Raffi-X}} in top 16, he made a strong loser's run defeating {{Sm|LingLing}}, {{Sm|Craftis}}, Raffi-X, and {{Sm|XL-XCVii}}, all of whom were some of New England's best players at that time. His run ended with {{Sm|Marss}} swiftly 3-0ing him in grand finals. Results like GUMS X improved his standings in the New England area: Light first appearing on the [[New England Power Rankings]] as 7th midway through the year, and ended the year at 3rd, ranking just under Marss and Pugwest, New England's two [[PGR]] reps at the time. | Light began actively playing {{forwiiu}} in 2016, attending events in the New England area.

His climb in the New England scene continued the following year. Light began seeing more and more top 3 finishes at regionals, claiming a couple of wins over PGR-ranked players Pugwest and {{Sm|Mr.E}}. However, Light was often snubbed out of a victory by Marss, who by then had became his bracket demon.

However, Light was often snubbed out of a victory by Marss, who by then had became his bracket demon. In addition, despite becoming a strong New England threat, Light had yet to find a breakout performance at a major, having placed 65th at [[Tournament:Shine 2016|the previous year's Shine]] and 97th at {{Trn|GENESIS 4}}. Despite rising all the way to 2nd in New England by the spring of 2017, Light failed to make the [[PGR v3]] and was ranked 79th on the ranking's X-Factor list. | ||
