Chandy is a {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}} main from Austin, Texas. Although he has more notable placings in PM (and was considered among the best DK mains in the country in 3.02), he is primarily a Melee player and is considered to be the best Melee DK main in Texas after defeating Mouf 5-2 in a first to five DK ditto at Smash @ the Dojo 3. He is currently ranked 6th on the Austin Melee power rankings despite using DK almost exclusively. Despite Texas' relatively weak Melee scene potentially inflating his results, Chandy is debatably the third best active Melee DK main in the world after Phish-It and Green Ranger.
Chandy is a {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}} main from Austin, Texas. He was listed as a Hidden Boss for [[2017_SSBMRank| SSBM Rank 2017]] and is currently ranked 7th on the Austin Melee power rankings. Although he seldom travels outside of Texas, he is considered among the best active Melee Donkey Kong mains.


Chandy is also credited with discovering the Banzai Punch, an offensive technique that uses the intangible frames of DK's [[Giant Punch]] to absorb the explosion of {{SSBM|Link}} or {{SSBM|Young Link}}'s bombs while also dealing explosive damage to the target. This technique is incredibly situational and has seen virtually no use in competitive play, like most of his other "revolutionary" technology.
Chandy is also credited with discovering several advanced but highly situational techniques involving the use of Link's bombs, documented in comedic fashion on his YouTube channel.


Chandy's latest DK combo video, "BRUTAL", came in third place in the 2015 MIOM combo video contest with an aggregate score of 7.25 out of a possible 10 points.
Chandy's first DK combo video, "BRUTAL", came in third place in the 2015 MIOM combo video contest with an aggregate score of 7.25 out of a possible 10 points. In January 2016 he released his second DK combo video, "BEATDOWN" to critical acclaim on both YouTube and the r/SSBM subreddit.
