Soon afterwards, Anther became a very tough contender in Michigan's competitive scene until ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' was released.  Starting off strong by placing 2nd behind Mikey Lenetia at his first official ''Brawl'' tournament, Anther soon became the dominant force in the midwest from May 2008 until near May 2009, winning nearly every tournament he entered, and placing first in the Midwest Circuit for Singles and Doubles, and also winning several large tournaments in the Chicago area. During this time he made over $10,000 USD, which he largely used to fund college. Even after that, he has been able to win games against top players like {{Sm|Mew2King}}.

Anther quit playing smash competitively early in 2010 to better pursue his career as a programmer.  Shortly after getting married in August 2013, his interest in smash was reawakened by ''Project M'', and he has been consistently attending ''Brawl'' and ''Melee'' tournaments ever since. Anther is widely considered to be the best {{PM|Pikachu}} in ''Project M'', and has had great results in ''Project M'' tournaments, taking sets off of notable smashers such as {{Sm|Malachi}}, {{Sm|Frozen}}, {{Sm|N0ne}}, and {{Sm|Hero of Time}}. In addition, he almost never drops sets to ''Project M'' players from his own state, except as of recently {{Sm|Techboy}}.

Additionally, he is the creator and developer of [[Anther's Ladder]], a matchmaking and ranking site for ''Project M'', ''Melee'', ''Brawl'' and ''[[Smash 64]]'' [[Dolphin|netplay]], as well as {{for3ds}} and {{forwiiu}} online play, which he launched in March 2014.
