Jaden, formerly known as VaNz, is a Peach player from New York City. He was considered to be one of the best Peach players in the United States from around 2009-2012 with solid results at many east coast majors.
He is also a notable Project M player and was considered one of the best Peach and Sheik players up until the mid-2010s, being best known for placing 3rd in Project M singles at The Big House 3. In addition, he was retroactively considered a top 10 player in 2012 and was ranked 17th on the PMRank 2016. Coincidentally, he and fellow smasher Malachi are from the same area, and have the same mains in Project M. Due to this, he is frequently known as Malachi 2.0.
