'''Darkshad''' is an ''[[SSB4]]'' {{SSB4|Ryu}} player from Cincinnati, Ohio, who competed in his first tournament in January of 2016.


Darkshad's diligence and commitment to improving has resulted with him, in just over a year's time, going from being an unknown [[Wi-Fi]] {{SSB4|Shulk}} to earning the rank of 2nd on the [[Ohio Smash 4 Power Rankings]], 7th on the [[Midwest Smash 4 Power Rankings]], and 41st on the [[PGR 100|Panda Global Rankings 100]]. In 2017 to the present, Darkshad has been very active: attending tournaments through-out the USA, including several Sagas and {{Trn|GENESIS|series}} in California, {{Trn|CEO|}}, {{Trn|EVO}}, {{Trn|Super Smash Con|series}}, GameTyrantExpo and large regionals through-out the Midwest such as {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash|series}} and the {{Trn|Midwest Mayhem|series}} events.
'''Darkshad''' is a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Shulk}} main with {{SSBU|Ryu}} and {{SSBU|Ken}} secondaries from Cincinnati, Ohio. He is considered one of the best Shulk players in the United States and has taken sets off players such as {{Sm|Kome}}, {{Sm|Jakal}}, {{Sm|moxi}}, {{Sm|Magister}}, {{Sm|colinies}}, and {{Sm|Mystearica}}. Darkshad was formerly ranked 3rd on the [[Ohio Smash Ultimate Power Rankings]].


Throughout 2017, Darkshad had won sets against a number of [[PGR]] ranked players such as {{Sm|Ally}} (at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2017}}, {{Trn|Little Big House 3}}, and Holiday Heist 3), {{Sm|CaptainZack}} (at Climax 2), and {{Sm|Cosmos}} (at both Climax 2 and Holiday Heist 3). Other set wins include: {{Sm|Pugwest}}, {{Sm|Mr.E}}, and {{Sm|Pink Fresh}} at {{Trn|Glitch 3}}, and {{Sm|Locus}}, {{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|MVD}}, and {{Sm|Nairo}} at {{Trn|GameTyrant Expo 2017}}. In 2016, Darkshad took sets off of {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Zinoto}}, {{Sm|Elegant}}, {{Sm|Samsora}}, MVD, and {{Sm|Ned}}.
In {{forwiiu}}, Darkshad was a {{SSB4|Ryu}} player and was considered the best Ryu player in the world. He has taken sets of {{Sm|ZeRo}}, {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}, and {{Sm|CaptainZack}}. He is currently ranked 41st on the [[Panda Global Rankings 100]].
 
The highlight of Darkshad's play during 2017 was improved consistency and a clear "step-up" in performance compared to 2016. Finishing 7th at GameTyrant Expo 2017 by beating both ZeRo and Nairo, 9th at {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash 3}}, 13th at Super Smash Con 2017, a respectable 33rd at {{Trn|CEO 2017}}, 49th at {{Trn|GENESIS 4}}, and a marginal 65th at both {{Trn|2GGC: Civil War}} and {{Trn|EVO 2017}}, highlighting his 2017 performance. Regional performance had usually resulted in a top 10 finish with wins in Indy, Louisville, Cincinnati, Toledo, and [[Michigan]] and respectable performances at Midwest Mayhem events in Chicago, and a 3rd place finish at Glitch 3 to name a few. 2017 concluded with a 1st place finish at WinterTheatre in Indiana, and a similar 1st place win at Holiday Heist 3 in Michigan. At Holiday Heist 3, Darkshad came up on Losers side to defeat Ally, and managed to win both grand finals sets over Cosmos as well.
 
Darkshad hopes to realize continued progression during 2018. [[PGR v4]] ranked him at 26th, representing a return to PGR after a strong 2nd half 2017. GENESIS and Frostbite, the first two "majors" of the new year were relatively successful for Darkshad.  His 25th place finish at GENESIS and 9th place finish at Frostbite were a continuation of the positive trend from 2017. Although he fell down a bit, he was still ranked 45th on the [[PGR v5|Panda Global Rankings v5]].
 
In ''[[SSBU]]'', Darkshad continues to play {{SSBU|Shulk}} with {{SSBU|Wolf}} as a co-main and {{SSBU|Ken}} as a strong secondary. He is considered one of the best Shulk players in the world and has taken sets off players such as {{Sm|Kome}}, {{Sm|Jakal}}, {{Sm|Magister}}, {{Sm|colinies}}, and {{Sm|Mystearica}}. Darkshad is currently ranked 3rd on the [[Ohio Smash Ultimate Power Rankings]].
