**Dabuz has said he can now play [[Olimar]] after winning {{Trn|CEO 2023}} albeit its status not being a major, however after playing Alph for so long it has become his brand and he feels an attachment to him. | **Dabuz has said he can now play [[Olimar]] after winning {{Trn|CEO 2023}} albeit its status not being a major, however after playing Alph for so long it has become his brand and he feels an attachment to him. | ||
*Dabuz is infamous for not having a single ''Ultimate'' major win despite being a consistent presence in the top 8. He has placed 2nd at 11 majors including {{Trn|Low Tide City 2021}}, {{Trn|Smash Factor 9}}, and {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}}. CEO 2023, his only national-level win, was not a major despite previous iterations being considered one. | *Dabuz is infamous for not having a single ''Ultimate'' major win despite being a consistent presence in the top 8.

**As a result, Dabuz is often considered a "gatekeeper" in ''Ultimate'' due to being one of the best ''Ultimate'' players to have never won a major, while several top players who managed to overcome him become major winners in the future (eg. {{Sm|Glutonny}} and {{Sm|Riddles}}). | |||
