'''Mew2King''', commonly known as '''M2K''', is an American smasher from Cinnaminson, New Jersey, who is currently residing in Orlando, Florida. He started playing competitively and attending tournaments in 2005. Mew2King has earned the reputation of being both one of the greatest ''[[Melee]]'' and ''[[Brawl]]'' players in the world and of all time due to his extraordinarily acute [[chaingrab]]bing, [[camping]], [[punish]]ing, and [[combo]]ing skills, as well as his extremely optimal, technical, and intelligent play style, earning him the nickname '''The Robot'''. | '''Mew2King''', commonly known as '''M2K''', is an American smasher from Cinnaminson, New Jersey, who is currently residing in Orlando, Florida.

Mew2King is considered to be one of the greatest {{SSBM|Marth}} players of all time (alongside {{Sm|Ken}}) based off his results with the character, having won multiple national tournaments and consistently placing within Top 8 at the highest ranking events for over 12 years. Prior to his hiatus from the game, he was considered to be one of the two best {{SSBM|Marth}} players in the world (along with {{Sm|Zain}}), one of the two best {{SSBM|Sheik}} players in the world (along with {{Sm|Plup}}), one of best ''Melee'' {{SSBM|Fox}} players in the world, one of the four best ''Melee'' {{SSBM|Mewtwo}} players (alongside {{Sm|Taj}}, {{Sm|Leffen}}, and {{Sm|Zoma}}) and arguably the best {{SSBM|Pichu}} player. He is also considered one of the best ''Brawl'' {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} players of all time, considered to be one of the best ''Smash 4'' {{SSB4|Cloud}} players in North America (along with {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Ned}}, and {{Sm|Javi|p=Smash 4}}), was considered one of the best {{SSBB|King Dedede}} players when he played him shortly after ''Brawl''{{'}}s release (whom he still uses along with {{SSBB|Falco}} in MK-banned tournaments), and was one of the best ''SSB4'' {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}} players before he was nerfed in patch [[1.0.8]]. He is currently 10th on the [[2019 MPGR]] and 69th on the [[Panda Global Rankings 100]]. He was formerly ranked at the 0 position on the discontinued North Florida Smash 4 Power Rankings, 1st on the [[SoCal Power Rankings|SoCal Project M and Smash 4 Power Rankings]] (right below {{Sm|ZeRo}} on the latter, who held the 0 spot), 1st on both the discontinued [[Tristate Power Rankings|Tristate Melee Power Rankings]] and [[North Atlantic Regional Power Rankings]], 2nd on the final [[Tristate Brawl Power Rankings]], 3rd on the [[Central Florida Melee Power Rankings]], 3rd on both the discontinued [[Smash Panel Power Rankings]] and [[SSBPD]], and 12th on the [[2016-2017 SSBBRank]]. | Mew2King is considered to be one of the greatest {{SSBM|Marth}} players of all time (alongside {{Sm|Ken}}) based off his results with the character, having won multiple national tournaments and consistently placing within Top 8 at the highest ranking events for over 12 years.

Mew2King was a major threat in ''Melee''{{'}}s tournament scene in the years before ''Brawl''{{'}}s release, consistently placing in the money at nationals. In 2007, Mew2King was the indisputable best player in the world and was widely considered to be one of the two best Melee players in the world in 2008 along with {{Sm|Mango}}. In the first few years of ''Brawl''{{'}}s lifespan, Mew2King dominated the national scene, rarely losing sets in tournaments, and remains one of the best players in both ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' to date. During late 2013, after years of not winning a major ''Melee'' tournament, Mew2King went on a winning streak which saw him win [[The Big House 3]] as well as almost every other singles event he entered, taking sets off of players who he had seldom defeated in that recent time, including {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|Hungrybox}}, and {{Sm|PPMD}}. This is commonly referred to as "The Return of the King". In ''Smash 4'', at [[Get On My Level 2016]], Mew2King became the fifth player to take a set off of ZeRo in Smash 4 (after {{Sm|Mr. ConCon}}, {{Sm|Vinnie}}, {{Sm|Seagull Joe}}, and {{Sm|Nairo}}), and the first player to ever defeat ZeRo in a best of 5 set without losing a single game.<!--Sky's Smash 4 Invitational is not included due to both being a launch tournament and taking place before ZeRo's streak.--> Mew2King played Cloud for the whole set, while ZeRo played Diddy Kong game 1, and switched to Sheik for games 2 and 3. He also managed to defeat both Ally and ZeRo at [[Endgame]], but ultimately lost to ZeRo in two sets of Grand Finals, including a JV-3 stock in the final game. He also placed 5th at [[Shine 2016]], defeating {{Sm|Larry Lurr}} 3-0. | Mew2King was a major threat in ''Melee''{{'}}s tournament scene in the years before ''Brawl''{{'}}s release, consistently placing in the money at nationals.
