'''Puppeh''' is a 16-year old {{SSB4|Sheik}} player from Virginia Beach, Virginia and is {{Sm|Squerk}}'s younger brother. He is currently the highest ranking player on the Southern Virginia power rankings and 14th on the [[MD/VA Power Rankings|MD/VA Smash 4 Power Rankings]], both for [[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]. Puppeh places well and often wins tournaments around Southern Virginia, and has done so from a very young age, across SSB4, [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] and [[Project M]].
'''Puppeh''' is a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}} player from Virginia Beach, Virginia and is {{Sm|Squerk}}'s younger brother. Puppeh places well and often wins tournaments around Southern Virginia, and has done so from a very young age, across multiple Smash installments including ''Ultimate'', ''Smash 4'', ''Melee'', and ''Project M''. Puppeh was considered one of the best Pokémon Trainer players in the world during the early metagame, and is still considered to be one of the best Pokémon Trainer players in the United States. His breakout performance came at {{Trn|CEO 2019}}, where he took sets off {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|Abadango}}, {{Sm|ESAM}}, and {{Sm|Samsora}} to ultimately place 5th. He also has wins on players such as {{Sm|WaDi}}, {{Sm|Goblin}}, {{Sm|Zomba}}, and {{Sm|Chag}}. He is currently ranked 1st on the [[SoVA Power Rankings]], 55th on the [[UltRank 2022]], and 121st on the [[OrionRank 2022]]; he was also formerly ranked 6th on the [[MD/VA Power Rankings#Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|MD/VA Ultimate Power Rankings]] and has ranked as high as 1st.


He is known for his aggressive and reckless play style, which often results in him easily gaining stage control over his opponent early on in the round. He also tends to use Up Smash much more than other high level Sheik players. One example of this is that he uses Forward Throw into Up Smash, rather than Forward Throw into Bouncing Fish.
In {{forwiiu}}, he was a {{SSB4|Sheik}} player with wins on players such as WaDi, {{Sm|6WX}}, {{Sm|RAIN}}, {{Sm|Seagull Joe}}, {{Sm|Mekos}}, {{Sm|Craftis}}, and {{Sm|True Blue}}. He was formerly ranked 14th on the [[MD/VA Power Rankings|MD/VA Smash 4 Power Rankings]]. His performance in ''Smash 4'' led to him being sponsored by That Game Store on January 18th 2016, but he left them shortly after to join Arcane eSports, who ceased operating June 13th of the same year.


Puppeh has taken sets off high level players including {{Sm|RAIN}}, {{Sm|WaDi}}, {{Sm|Mekos}}, {{Sm|6WX}}, {{Sm|Craftis}}, {{Sm|True Blue}}, and {{Sm|Seagull Joe}} (the latter four notably all being {{SSB4|Sonic}} mains).
On August 13th 2016, [[Seven Seas]] announced that they had signed Puppeh to represent them in ''SSB4'' alongside {{Sm|saj}}; Puppeh left the team at a later date. On August 19th, 2019, Puppeh would join team ZENMA, along with Pandarian. Less than two weeks later, on August 30th, 2019, Puppeh, along with many of the other smashers signed by team ZENMA, announced that he was leaving the organization due to controversies with its CEO, {{Sm|false}}<ref>[https://twitter.com/PuppehSSB/status/1167522732944216065]</ref>.


His performance in SSB4 has led to him being sponsored by That Game Store on January 18th 2016, but left them shortly after to join Arcane eSports, who ceased operating June 13th of the same year.

Puppeh is a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Pokémon Trainer player from Virginia Beach, Virginia and is Squerk's younger brother. Puppeh places well and often wins tournaments around Southern Virginia, and has done so from a very young age, across multiple Smash installments including Ultimate, Smash 4, Melee, and Project M. Puppeh was considered one of the best Pokémon Trainer players in the world during the early metagame, and is still considered to be one of the best Pokémon Trainer players in the United States. His breakout performance came at CEO 2019, where he took sets off Nairo, Abadango, ESAM, and Samsora to ultimately place 5th. He also has wins on players such as WaDi, Goblin, Zomba, and Chag. He is currently ranked 1st on the SoVA Power Rankings, 55th on the UltRank 2022, and 121st on the OrionRank 2022; he was also formerly ranked 6th on the MD/VA Ultimate Power Rankings and has ranked as high as 1st.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, he was a Sheik player with wins on players such as WaDi, 6WX, RAIN, Seagull Joe, Mekos, Craftis, and True Blue. He was formerly ranked 14th on the MD/VA Smash 4 Power Rankings. His performance in Smash 4 led to him being sponsored by That Game Store on January 18th 2016, but he left them shortly after to join Arcane eSports, who ceased operating June 13th of the same year.

On August 13th 2016, Seven Seas announced that they had signed Puppeh to represent them in SSB4 alongside saj; Puppeh left the team at a later date. On August 19th, 2019, Puppeh would join team ZENMA, along with Pandarian. Less than two weeks later, on August 30th, 2019, Puppeh, along with many of the other smashers signed by team ZENMA, announced that he was leaving the organization due to controversies with its CEO, false[1].

Playstyle[edit]

In SSB4, he was known for his aggressive and reckless play style, which often resulted in him easily gaining stage control over his opponent. One example of this was that he used forward throw into up smash, rather than forward throw into Bouncing Fish.
