Fire is a French, Swiss and Italian smasher who plays both Brawl, Smash 4, and Ultimate. He is a player for the E-LVETS Gaming team [1].
Considered to be the best Smash 4 Charizard player in Europe, he is currently ranked 1st on the Strasbourg Power Rankings, and 40th on the European Smash 4 Power Rankings, while being formerly ranked 11th on the French Power Rankings. In spite of Charizard's perception, Fire has achieved a lot of impressive performances, beating players such as Glutonny, Homika, Griffith, Destany, Ogey, Meru or Zudenka. He also had very close sets against some of Europe's best, like QuiK or Ixis Naugus, but felt short of getting the win. His placements with a character that's usually considered a Low Tier has earned him the respect of the community all over the world.
In Ultimate, he is a Pokemon Trainer player with a strong Wolf secondary, having wins over players such as Otakuni and Jesuischoq. He is ranked first in the Strasbourg Power Rankings.
