'''Mekos''' is a [[Lucas]] main from North Carolina, considered the best ''[[Brawl]]'' {{SSBB|Lucas}} player in the world. He is known for his excellent control over Lucas's mobility, and usage of [[PK Fire]], jab and aerials to [[space]] against opponents, as well as using the [[Rope Snake]] to cancel Lucas's [[landing lag]] after aerials or empty jumps. He was known to play a very deadly spacing game, making the most of each of Lucas's moves's range to both [[edgeguard]] and put on [[pressure]]. He was formerly ranked 1st on the Carolina Brawl Power Rankings, ESAM being ranked at the 0 position right above him at the time.
'''Mekos''' is an ''[[SSB4]]'' {{SSB4|Lucas}} player from Greensboro, North Carolina, and is considered one of the best Lucas players in the United States. He is a notable advocate of [[Doubles]], and considers it superior to [[Singles]] play. He is considered one of the best Doubles players in the United States, and is referred to as: "The Doubles God". Mekos was formerly ranked 8th on the [[North Carolina Power Rankings|North Carolina Smash 4 Power Rankings]].


He was a notoriously vocal proponent of doubles play, considering it superior to singles play. He often preaches about the necessity of true team work and team spacing in doubles, while denouncing the "separate 1v1 battles" that often occur when those inexperienced in doubles team up. Despite some seeing him as overly vocal about the issue, Mekos is considered to be one of the top doubles players in the States, and is commonly known as "The Doubles God" as a result. Despite preferring and often doing better in doubles, however, Mekos usually placed very well in singles, especially for using a low tiered character. His breakout performance came at {{b|SKTAR|tournament}}, where he defeated top Falco {{Sm|Pelca}}, defeated one of the best {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}s in the world in {{Sm|Tyrant}}, and defeating one of the best European and Wario players in {{Sm|Glutonny}}, before losing to {{Sm|Trela}} in winners quarterfinals, and losing to Tyrant in losers, overall securing a 9th placing (the highest a player placed with a low tier in a national tournament since {{Sm|San}} got 9th with the then low tier {{SSBB|Ike}} at [[Apex 2010]]).
In ''[[SSBB]]'', Mekos was also a {{SSBB|Lucas}} player, and was considered the best Lucas player in the world. Mekos was formerly ranked 69th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]], and 1st on the Carolina Brawl Power Rankings.
 
In early 2016, Mekos [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6s28tAfkZE announced he was coming out of retirement] to main {{SSB4|Lucas}} in ''[[Smash 4]]''.
