Barakas, formerly known as The Wall or Papa Wall is an American SSB4 Yoshi main from Texas, and is considered to be one of the best Yoshi players in North America. He started to play competitively in January of 2015, and has taken down notable players such as CaptainZack, Samsora, Trela, Zenyou, Karna, Raptor, and Jonny Westside. He is currently ranked 4th on the Houston Smash 4 Power Rankings and was formerly ranked 6th on the Texas Smash 4 Power Rankings.
On May 31st, 2017, after being the center of heated discussion for many months, Barakas deleted his Twitter account and announced his retirement from competitive Smash[1] [2], though he hasn't officially done so.
