TreK is a French Super Smash Bros Brawl and Project M player and tournament organiser in the Paris Smash scene. He started playing Smash competitively in early 2008, he then moved on to Super Smash Bros Brawl when it was released in Europe, and later started playing Project M, in the summer of 2013.
Brawl career
TreK was one of the members of the highest ranked French crew, Smash'n-Frag, in which he was active from 2009 to 2012. He has been involved in a lot of projects, such as his crew's combo video.
Although he's never been considered a good player, TreK has contributed a lot to the metagame of his main character, Diddy Kong, by discovering several advanced techniques which eventually led to the discovery of the first of Diddy Kong's now numerous infinites. An infinite, which, quite ironically, he has never been able to pull off, leading him to put a temporary end to his Smash career in 2012.
Project M career
In Project M, Trek is one of the pioneers of the game in France. He traveled to a lot of events such as LAN parties and Super Smash Bros Melee tournaments, bringing setups with him to advertise the mod and grow the French community. He has since hosted several tournaments such as Republic of Fighters 3, hf.lan 7 and hf.lan 8.
He is also considered a French top player, currently ranked 4th in the country. He is known for his aggressive Ivysaur, and his distaste for Melee top tiers remaining unchanged in Project M.
