Smasher:Jarc
John Eric "Jarc" Byrd is an up and coming smasher from the small city of Les Cedres, near Montreal, Canada. Though he is not concidered as a top notch player, he is certain that his time will soon come. Although he enjoys playing a multitude of characters, in tournaments he mains Jigglypuff and keeps Fox and Shiek as secondaries.
History
Jarc got Super Smash Brothers 64 the day it came out, and shared the enjoyable experience with his friends, that would later become his SSBM teammates. Along with his friends, he competed in a few minor SSB:64 tournaments in the area, mostely at La Ronde. When he and his friends learned that there was going to be a sequel on the Gamecube, they went hysterical. At that time, Jarc didn't have a gamecube, so he could only play with his friends (wich he did almost every weekend) during the years 2002, 2003 and 2004. He still had no knowlege of advanced techniques.
In late 2005, while trying to find some 1v1 matches, Jarc stumbled uppon [smashboards], where he discovered the many advanced techniques he had not yet heard of. He also got a hold of one of the top Canadian smashers at the time, Pkmvodka, whom drove almost two hours to come play with Jarc. This is when Jarc finnaly saw the importance of wavedashing and l-cancelling and vowed to become as good as Pkmvodka. Later that year, Jarc went to his first tournament, No Mercy vs. the World, where his newly aquired skills came in handy to defeat some players. Though he didn't get very far bracket-wise, he learned alot from that day and was able to meet Chesterr01, TestRider, Bam, Vwins, Nox and other very skilled smashers that would later on become his training partners.
