Raiser is a tournament organizer from Eastern Kentucky. He has directed and organized several regional tournaments in Kentucky and also TOs for Bourbon State Gaming, the organizers of Kentucky's largest Super Smash Bros. events. Raiser's tournaments started out as small events in a high school library, but would eventually grow to become some of the largest events in the state. Raiser is known for creating promotional videos to stir up drama leading up to his events.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, like many other tournament organizers, Raiser moved to online tournaments. Raiser partnered with Dragon Squad Esports in Cincinnati, Ohio for two online tournaments to raise money for the family of Breonna Taylor and other African American charities. The tourneys, named "The Movement," raised more than $1,500 combined. Raiser also worked with Soup Bean's weekly online series.
