RAIN is known for his ability to understand a player's habits after having played them multiple times (commonly known as [[read|downloading]]) and exploiting these habits to his advantage. As a result, RAIN does much better in Japanese tournaments than when he travels internationally. He is currently ranked 30th on the [[JAPAN Power Rankings]]. He has also competed in ''Melee'' in the past, and was ranked 2nd on the 2010 [[Kansai Melee Ranking Battles]]. | RAIN is known for his ability to understand a player's habits after having played them multiple times (commonly known as [[read|downloading]]) and exploiting these habits to his advantage.
