Smasher:S2J

S2J (an abbreviation for Smoke2Jointz) is a Melee professional living in Northern California who is considered to be one of the best Captain Falcon players in the world. He is currently 23rd on the SSBMRank Summer 2023.

On July 14, 2016, he was picked up by Tempo Storm, but parted ways on January 3rd, 2019. On January 18th, 2019 he joined Halocline Gaming, but left later that year on November 25th. On March 13th, 2020, he joined beastcoast. They would part ways on December 1st, 2023.

Playing style
Even for a player of his caliber, S2J has an excellent neutral game, using a combination of precise wave-dashing and dash-dancing to perfectly space his attacks. He is also one of the best defensive Falcons with good smash DI and mix-ups with Falcon's otherwise poor recovery. His punish game is notorious among smashers for being able to 0-death with just one combo (usually beginning with a grab), which is known as a Johnny Stock. He is also a read-heavy player.
