*{{Sm|62-bit Hero|USA}} - The best Bowser player of all time, and one of the very few to reach notable success with him. Primary innovator of the character and a well-respected figurehead on [[Smashboards]]. Returned to the community through Netplay upon the release of [[Project Slippi]], but has yet to compete on a large scale again.
*{{Sm|62-bit Hero|USA}} - The most famous Bowser player of the MLG era, and primary innovator of the character. Returned to the community through Netplay upon the release of [[Project Slippi]], but has yet to compete on a large scale again.
*{{Sm|Arash|USA}} - Considered to be one of the best Bowser players in Melee’s early metagame. Placed 9th at {{Trn|MLG San Francisco 2005}} and 13th at {{Trn|MOAST 3}}.
*{{Sm|Arash|USA}} - Considered to be one of the best Bowser players in Melee’s early metagame. Placed 9th at {{Trn|MLG San Francisco 2005}} and 13th at {{Trn|MOAST 3}}, the latter being possibly the highest Bowser placement seen at any major tournament in ''Melee'', though it's unclear how much he actually used Bowser at those tournaments, as he played {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} as well. He eventually switched to solo-maining Jigglypuff before retiring in 2007.
*{{Sm|DJ Nintendo|USA}} - Was considered the best Bowser in the world and one of the best Bowser players of all time. Switched to {{SSBM|Fox}} before being banned from confirmed instances of sexual misconduct. Placed 13th at {{Trn|MLG Long Island 2007}}. Has defeated {{Sm|Ryan Ford}} with the character.
*{{Sm|DJ Nintendo|USA}} - Was considered the best Bowser in the world and one of the best Bowser players of all time. Placed 13th at {{Trn|MLG Long Island 2007}} with solely Bowser and used him as a secondary in his placements at 13th at {{Trn|Apex 2009}} and 17th at {{Trn|Revival of Melee 2}}. His win over {{Sm|Ryan Ford}} is considered the best win the character has seen in the game's competitive life. However, he mostly played other characters, primarily {{SSBM|Fox}}, after the end of the MLG era.
*{{Sm|WarriorKnight|USA}} - Placed 9th at {{Trn|MLG Long Island 2007}},17th at [[Zenith 2014]] and 49th at both [[CEO 2016]] and [[Apex 2022]]. One of the primary innovators of Bowser’s metagame and currently the best active Bowser player.
*{{Sm|WarriorKnight|USA}} - One of the primary innovators of Bowser’s metagame and one of the best Bowser players of all time. He placed top 24 at a few superregionals such as 9th at {{Trn|MLG Long Island 2007}} and 17th at {{Trn|Zenith 2014}}. His placements of 49th at both {{Trn|CEO 2016}} and {{Trn|Apex 2022}} mark the best Bowser placements at majors behind Arash, with the latter being the only notable Bowser result seen at a legitimate tournament in the post-Slippi era.
