He was known as the best {{SSBB|Lucas}} in the world in ''[[Brawl]]'', alongside {{Sm|Pink Fresh}} and is currently considered the best {{SSB4|Lucas}} player in the world in ''[[Smash 4]]'' after {{Sm|Taiheita}}'s retirement. In ''Brawl'', he was known for his excellent control over Lucas's mobility, and usage of [[PK Fire]], jab and aerials to [[space]] against opponents, as well as using the [[Rope Snake]] to cancel Lucas's [[landing lag]] after aerials or empty jumps. He was known to play a very deadly spacing game, making the most of each of Lucas's moves's range to both [[edgeguard]] and put on [[pressure]]. | ||
He was a notoriously vocal proponent of doubles play, considering it superior to singles play. He often preached about the necessity of true team work and team spacing in doubles, while denouncing the "separate 1v1 battles" that often occur when those inexperienced in doubles teaming. Although some saw him as overly vocal about the issue, Mekos was considered to be one of the top doubles players in the States, consistently placing high in doubles while using a low tier and teaming with numerous different players, and is commonly known as "The Doubles God" as a result. Despite preferring and often doing better in doubles, however, Mekos usually placed very well in singles, especially for using a low tiered character. His breakout performance came at {{Trn|SKTAR}}, where he defeated top {{SSBB|Falco}} player {{Sm|Pelca}}, defeated one of the best {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} players in the world, {{Sm|Tyrant}}, and defeating one of the best European and {{SSBB|Wario}} players in the world, {{Sm|Glutonny}}, before losing to {{Sm|Trela}} in winners quarterfinals, and losing to Tyrant in losers, overall securing a 9th placing (the highest a player placed with a low tier in a national tournament since {{Sm|San}} got 9th with the then low tier {{SSBB|Ike}} at {{Trn|Apex 2010}}). | He was a notoriously vocal proponent of doubles play, considering it superior to singles play.
