He is the younger brother of JeBB , an MD/VA Bayonetta and Lucas player who is currently ranked 10th on the MD/VA Smash 4 Power Rankings .
In 2017, WaDi set the record for the most Smash 4 tournaments won at Xanadu , surpassing the record of 27 victories that was previously held by Boss .
WaDi's gamer tag comes from his former mains Wario and R.O.B , and how Wario's name sounds like "Wadio" in-game.
Furthermore, the capitalization of the letters “W”, “D”, and “R” in his tag “WaDiRob” is in homage to his usage of Wario, King Dedede , and R.O.B. in Super Smash Bros. Brawl .
Before his first match at the 2GG Championship , WaDi became engaged to his girlfriend and fellow MD/VA smasher, Cinnpie , proposing to her onstage. However, they called off the engagement on December 31st, 2019, but are still on amicable terms.[11]
WaDi shares his birthday with Mew2King .
