Trivia

  • Shuton is one of eight players to have a tied record against ZeRo (with the others being Seagull Joe, Kameme, Day, falln, Darkshad, WaDi. and Trela, all 1-1).
  • When playing against Myran at Frostbite 2019, Shuton notably switched to Richter and pulled off a unique recovery by using Richter's down air on a Pikmin that was latched onto him; this has been widely viewed as one of the best off-stage recoveries in early competitive Ultimate and has since become a meme in the community.
    • Riddles did something similar during his set versus Pandarian, where Pandarian threw a razor leaf off stage, and Riddles down aired off of it.
  • Shuton is one of only five players to have a positive record on MkLeo in Ultimate (2-0) with the others being KEN (2-0), Jw (1-0), kameme (1-0) and Prodigy (1-0).
  • Even though he lives in Fukuoka, Shuton almost never participates to local Kyushu tournaments and only goes to bigger Japanese or overseas tournaments in Ultimate. His only recorded attendance at a local was at Frontier Smash #2.
