VTS is from Cabot, Arkansas and played Ice Climbers from fall 2007 to summer 2012, quiting to play league of legends with friends. However, right before he transitioned over to LoL, he made one of the greatest achievements of his career- beating {{sm|Hax}} in pools at FC Legacy.  This allowed him to advance to the next pool where he faced {{sm|Shroomed}} and took him to the last game last stock high%.  At this point, Shroomed mentioned that he (VTS) was the most aggressive Ice Climber he had ever faced and was impressed at how different he was from the standard Ice Climber mains. His 2v2 career was almost as storied, teaming with {{sm|Arby}} every tournament they could. Their strong synergy and the strength of the Arby's carrying power placed them top 25 at Genesis 2, 5th at MIST, 33rd at Apex 2012, and repeated 1st place performances at local Arkansas tournaments.Years later as melee began to return to even greater heights, VTS to returned to go to Evo 2014 where he placed 65th notably beating Dip and Jpegimage (losing to Dip in winners and beating him in losers to advance) and finally losing to {{sm|Hyprid}}. In 2015, he made a more permanent return to the scene as an active player locally.  In the melee power rankings for Arkansas, he is currently ranked 3rd under {{sm|Arby}} and {{sm|Chamberlin}}. After a short experiment with Sheik, he switched over to Falco in order to try to fix foundational problems in his play. After experiencing the revival of melee in Arkansas, he has decided to seek greater heights, moving to Arizona in June 2015.
'''VTS''' is an {{SSBM|Ice Climbers}} main from Arkansas who is currently living in Arizona. He was once ranked 3rd on the ''Melee'' [[Arkansas Power Rankings]]. VTS managed to beat {{sm|Hax}} in pools at FC Legacy, and his play has received acclaim from {{Sm|Shroomed}}. He retired in 2012, but in 2015, made a more permanent return to the scene as an active local player.
VTS's skill level fluctuates based on anything, from barometric pressure to what color socks he put on that morning, and thus he is known as rather hit or miss: at his highest heights- competitive at an impressive level, while at his lowest lows - losing to everyone and their peach. He has started playing netplay under the tag Zoxam. He is currently Silver 1 trying to improve his Falco.
