==Trivia==
*pu55yk1ng is  known for his controversial gamer tag. Some commentators such as {{Sm|D1}} [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdB3Q997QiE&t=8m15s have had to spell out his name instead of outright saying it].
**Some tournaments, such as {{Trn|CEO Dreamland}}, display his tag as "551" to avoid controversy.
