TriviaEdit

  • 808 gained a notable popularity in France during GENESIS 7 by becoming the fan-favorite of the French re-casters of GENESIS 7 (Le Pugilat des Étoiles) and its Twitch chat. They notably created a drawing[1] and an emote[2] representing his King K.Rool. According to him, he also gained a massive amount of followers on Twitter and received many encouragements and kind messages during the tournament.
    • Le Pugilat des Étoiles later interviewed him as they reached the subgoal for that on their Twitch channel[3].
    • As an answer to all the hype surrounding him in France, 808 considered going to the French major Colossel before it was cancelled[4].
  • 808 was among the few King K. Rool players to be nominated for travel to 2GG: Kongo Saga.
