GYKO is an New Zealand smasher known for using many different characters. He first started Super Smash Bros when SSBM was released but it was not until Brawl's release in 2008 when he started to play at a higher level. Due to the declining interest for Smash in his area, he has only entered one tournament which was Auckland EAST IV where he was not ranked after having to "leave early", though beating top seeded player Dio whilst competing.
However he is probably most known for his contributions towards building a Smash community in the Marriland forums.
Melee
When GYKO first played Melee, he did not even own the game and first mained Samus. He obtained the game in 2009 and now he currently plays a range of characters namely Marth, Sheik, Fox, Falco, Dr. Mario and Jigglypuff. He does not enter tournaments for Melee due to the diminishing Smash community and Melee's outdatedness.
Brawl
GYKO picked up Super Smash Bros Brawl on its release and continued to play Samus, his main at the time, until he was persuaded by "his friend to pick up Mr. Game & Watch". He continued to play Mr. Game & Watch for the duration of 2008 and 2009 before trying to pick up King Dedede as his main and shortly after "every character in the game" per Chsal's description.
His most notable characters include Snake, Lucario, Marth, King Dedede, Mr. Game & Watch, ROB, Falco, Olimar and Pit.
As of 2010, GYKO does not play in any tournaments as there are none available although continues to play with his friends while seeking the competitive Smash seen.
