Legan was a Brawl Link main from Missouri. He was known as one of the best Link players in Brawl's history, with him often being considered the second best under KirinBlaze for most of Brawl's competitive life, with Legan achieving results at large Midwest regionals playing only Link that few other players of bottom tier characters could replicate. He was additionally a prominent member of the Link community on AllisBrawl, where the world's best Links would discuss his metagame, and was featured as a VIP member of both PJL and PJL2 ("Project Link" Combo videos, featuring all the best Links in the world, though these videos are no longer online).

He started out playing Melee with Link, looking up to players like Aniki and Germ. In his early competitive career in Brawl, he watched the Japanese player Hashimo a lot and adapted that playstyle as his basis. Through the years, he practiced Link through Wi-Fi and offline smashfests.

Legan would stop actively competing in Brawl by the end of 2012, and when Smash 4 released, he stated he wasn't going to get into the game as much as he did with Brawl and had more difficulty finding time to travel to tournaments at his age. He reiterated that while he had no intention to buy a Wii U, he would play Smash 4 with friends and might attend a tournament or two, but he would not be seen again in competitive Smash after 2014.[1]
