==Trivia== | |||
*Blur is frequently made fun of for losing a streamed tournament set to {{Sm|Mooninite}}'s Kirby at [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56a1UZcdH44| The Next Episode], a topic that comes up relatively often due to Blur being a familiar face within Melee's tournament scene and Kirby's status as one of Melee's worst characters. This would be further propagated when he lost a tournament set to {{Sm|Cereal Rabbit}}'s Kirby one year later. | |||
*Blur is the focus of a running gag propagated by ''Nickelodeon All-Stars Brawl'' developer Thaddeus Crews, in which it is alleged that Blur had failed to reupload {{Trn|Smash @ Xanadu}}'s [[Project M]] vods after {{Sm|GimR}} removed the game from the tournament series.<ref>https://twitter.com/Repiteo/status/1604582669857263616</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Sabre_Metrics/status/1449582637958328324</ref> | |||
