Hax began his ''Melee'' career as an up-and-coming Captain Falcon main who quickly rose the ranks in his region. At his first major tournament, [[Pound 3]], he placed 9th; he lost to {{Sm|Mew2King}} in the first round of winners' bracket, then ran through losers' bracket and defeated {{Sm|LoZR}}, {{Sm|Silent Wolf}}, and {{Sm|Colbol}} in losers', then was eliminated by {{Sm|Azen}}. A year later, at [[Revival of Melee]], Hax once again showed fantastic prowess with his Captain Falcon; he lost to {{Sm|Eggm}} in winners', but went on another mini-run through losers' bracket, taking out {{Sm|thumbswayup}}, {{Sm|HBK}}, and {{Sm|RaynEX}}. He then lost to {{Sm|Jman}} 0-2, with both games going down to the last stock, finishing at 13th in singles overall. | Hax began his ''Melee'' career as an up-and-coming Captain Falcon main who quickly rose the ranks in his region.

Before the next major, Hax entered Herb 2, a moderate size tournament in North Carolina in 2009, where he was defeated by the grand LOL_Master. Stunned by this, Aziz went on to train harder and play smarter. | |||
Hax's next major was [[Apex 2009]], which was also his biggest breakthrough in the ''Melee'' scene to that day. At that tournament, he defeated {{Sm|ChuDat}} in winners' bracket before losing to {{Sm|Jman}}, but went on another run through losers', this time taking out big names such as {{Sm|Anther}}, {{Sm|Scar}}, and {{Sm|Kage}} before losing to {{Sm|ChuDat}} in a rematch, placing 4th overall. At [[GENESIS]], he teamed with {{Sm|Hungrybox}}, where they were defeated by {{Sm|Armada}} and {{Sm|Aniolas}} in the winners' bracket. They rose through the losers' bracket, but only reached 13th place. He reached 7th place in ''Melee'' singles among the greatest in all of America and talented players from Europe, Mexico, and Canada. | Hax's next major was [[Apex 2009]], which was also his biggest breakthrough in the ''Melee'' scene to that day.
