+HOPE+ started the first month without a set main but ended up settling with {{SSBU|Isabelle}}, however he would constantly use secondaries because of Isabelle's weaknesses. Even with this problem, +HOPE+ found success in the early metagame of ''Ultimate'' with good placings such as 13th at {{Trn|Valhalla II}} and 9th at {{Trn|Phoenix Blue 2}}, and quickly became the best Isabelle in Europe and a contender for best Isabelle in the world. +HOPE+ would pick up {{SSBU|Ken}} initially as a for-fun character, then later as a co-main after his buffs in patch 3.1.0. With Isabelle, Ken, and a variety of secondaries such as {{SSBU|Roy}} and {{SSBU|Inkling}}, +HOPE+ easily became the one of best players in Denmark, placing 3rd on the first Danish Power Rankings for ''Ultimate''.

After lackluster results at {{Trn|Monday Meltdown}}, +HOPE+ decided that he had to seek out for a new main, as the evolving meta has worsened Isabelle's flaws. After struggling to find a new main, +HOPE+ would finally find light at the E3 Nintendo Direct June 11th, 2019, where {{SSBU|Hero}} would be announced. +HOPE+ was interested in the character's MP bar and menu list and he decided to stop competing at bigger scale events until the character was released. Upon the character's release, although {{SSBU|Hero}}´s RNG-based moveset sparked a lot of concern in the community, it instead sparked excitement for +HOPE+ who decided to pick the character up. With {{SSBU|Hero}}, he has since seen even more success at tournaments such as 33rd at the national tournament {{Trn|Valhalla III}} and 13th at the regional tournament {{Trn|Smash Contest: DoKomi 2020}} and rose to the number 1 spot on the Danish Power Rankings.
