'''Affinity''' was a ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} main from Kansas, now living in South Florida. He played in the Midwest region where he placed well consistently and was formerly ranked 5th on the Kansas Brawl Power Rankings. As a player he was known for pecking at the opponent, looking for openings and mistakes with which to capitalize on rather than trying to aggressively rush the opposition. He was also known for tech chasing with throws and having a very solid off-stage game with all of his characters. He was also very active in contributing to the Meta Knight forum in the first year of ''SSBB''{{'}}s release. Affinity has teamed with many different Kansas players at tournaments including Domo (GOD), Karmacide, Fino, {{Sm|Steeler}}, and {{Sm|The Real Inferno}} at tournaments, as well as out-of-state players such as PhantomX. He retired from ''Smash'' after ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', but returned with the release of ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.


Affinity is a [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]] Main, and one of the most well known users of the character. He plays in the Midwest region where he places incredibly high, winning several tournaments. As a player he is known for pecking at the opponent, looking for openings and mistakes with which to capitalize on rather than trying to aggressively rush the opposition. He is also known for tech chasing with throws and having a very solid off-stage game with all of his characters. Together with [[Karmacide]] they form the pair of Meta Gear Solid, the second most dominant doubles team in the area. The team is known for often attempting the instant kill combo of [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]]'s C4 and Meta Knight's up throw.  Affinity is very active in the smash comunity as a whole, lending to his reputation as both a good player and good person. He has performed decently well outside of the Kansas area but still spends much of his time improving his game. He also has a friendly rivalry with fellow Meta Knight Main, [[Domo(G.O.A.T.)|Domo]].
