Best known for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Plup is considered one of the greatest ''Melee'' players of all time. He originally gained prominence as a {{SSBM|Samus}} player, and quickly rose to become the best Samus player at the time. Plup relegated Samus to a counterpick in favor of {{SSBM|Sheik}} following {{Trn|Apex 2015}}, and added {{SSBM|Fox}} as a co-main the following year. Since then, he has come to be known as one of the greatest Sheik and Samus players of all time, while maintaining a top-level {{SSBM|Fox}}, winning tournaments including {{Trn|GENESIS 5}} and the {{Trn|Smash World Tour 2021 Championships}}. He also became the second player (after {{Sm|Leffen}}) in competitive ''Melee'' history to take a set off of each of the "[[Five Gods]]" after defeating {{Sm|Armada}} at {{Trn|The Big House 7}}, and remains the last player to do so. He is a strong doubles player, frequently teaming with {{Sm|Hungrybox}} to form "{{Team|Plupbox}}", with the pair considered one of the greatest doubles teams of all time. Plup has sometimes demonstrated his competence with other characters as well, most famously using solo {{SSBM|Luigi}} at {{Trn|CEO Dreamland}} to place 5th, which remains the highest placing for a solo Luigi at a major. Renowned for his consistency and longevity, Plup ranked in the top 10 of every [[SSBMRank]]/[[MPGR]] from [[SSBMRank 2015|2015]] until [[SSBMRank 2024|2024]], where he didn't qualify due to low attendance. He last ranked 5th on the [[SSBMRank 2023]]. | Best known for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Plup is considered one of the greatest ''Melee'' players of all time.
