Tyrant: Admin who blocks the most users. -SmashPeter's definition of a Tyrant

OT's Pro Tip: Don't underestimate your opponent because they use a lower tiered character. Sure they may be weaker than equivalent skilled players of higher tiered characters, but they are fully capable of beating you if you let your guard down, especially if you're unfamiliar with the matchup. Take all opponents seriously in tournament.

I am a dedicated smasher from Schenectady, New York who has been playing Super Smash Bros. since I received Melee as a Christmas present about six years ago. It took a couple of years before I really got into it. But once I did, Melee was the game I played the most on the GCN, by far (more then 50% of my playtime on the GCN was on Melee). I was just one of the millions who anticipated Brawl's release. I preordered it and bought it the day it came out, despite not owning a Wii yet. I would have to wait 2 months before I could obtain a Wii and play Brawl. Like many others who played Melee dedicatedly, I noticed the physics differences immediately. Initially, I didn't like the physics changes and the loss of L-cancelling, but I would adapt to Brawl very quickly, and being preferring it over Melee. I am very knowledgeable on both games (moreso on Brawl) as I have tested various aspects of the game such as how early every character's smash attacks KO, every character's endurance, and even how well every character can momentum cancel. I discovered various things not mentioned on this wiki such as Fox's dair in Melee was actually a spike and not a meteor smash, albeit a very weak one, and the workings of priority. My other gaming passion is the Pokémon series which are the only other games I had played as much as Super Smash Bros. I have spent over 2000 hours combined on my Brawl and Diamond files. For my smasherbeta image, I have a picture of my favorite pokémon, Tyranitar, that was drawn for me by someone who was dear to me.

I do play Brawl competitively, comaining Wolf and King Dedede. I've believed I reached a professional level (albeit among the lower levels of it), and I'm good enough to consistently win money at locals in my region, as well as get ranked 5th in my region. I have yet to get much success when I travel out of region, though even with the much stronger competition, I have yet to attend a tournament where I failed to win at least one set.

If you ever wondered what the professional level is like in Brawl, you can challenge me to wifi, and I'll pretty much always play you, if I'm not too busy with other things.

1P mode feats

I have spent countless hours on Melee and Brawl 1P modes and have accomplished many feats.

In Melee, I cleared Classic and Crazy Hand on Normal with every character without continuing.
In Melee, I cleared Adventure and Giga Bowser on Normal with every character w/o continuing.
In Melee, I cleared Classic on Very Hard and Crazy Hand with Ganondorf w/o continuing.
In Melee, I cleared Adventure on Very Hard with Ganondorf w/o continuing (I didn't beat fast enough to fight Giga Bowser, however).
In Melee, I made it to the G&Ws in All Star on Very Hard with Ganondorf w/o continuing (they ended up killing me but I still managed to clear it).
In Melee, I survived 15 Minute-Melee with every character.
In Melee, I cleared Event 51 with every character and beaten it w/o stock loss with 17 characters (Dr.Mario, Bowser, Peach, Yoshi, C.Falcon, Ganondorf, Falco, Fox, Ness, Kirby, Samus, Link, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Mewtwo, Marth, and Roy).
In Melee using Ganondorf, I cleared Event 50 in 30 seconds and cleared Event 51 in 1m 04 sec.
In Melee, I collected every trophy except Olimar's (I never owned or knew someone who owned Pikmin).
In Brawl, I cleared Classic on Hard and defeated Crazy Hand with every character w/o continuing.
In Brawl, I cleared Classic on Intense and defeated Crazy Hand with Fox and King Dedede w/o continuing (I did this despite Fox being a secondary character).
In Brawl, I cleared Classic on Intense w/o continuing with 17 characters (Bowser, Yoshi, Ganondorf, Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Olimar, Fox, Falco, Wolf, Captain Falcon, Pikachu, Lucario, Marth, Ike, Mr. Game & Watch, and Snake).
In Brawl, I cleared Classic on Intense with one stock w/o continuing with King Dedede. I also managed to defeat Crazy Hand with Master Hand in this run.
In Brawl, I cleared All Star on Hard with every character w/o continuing.
In Brawl, I cleared All Star on Intense w/o continuing with King Dedede and Snake.
In Brawl, I cleared the Subspace Emissary with 100% on Intense, both from starting from the beginning and from replaying all the levels on Intense (the main difference is that you can pick any character you unlock on the replay-throughs but there is no way to restore any lost lives)
In Brawl, I defeated Tabuu on Intense w/o taking damage and w/o using stickers with Diddy Kong, Lucario, and Marth. I also defeated the Duon on Intense w/o taking damage and w/o using stickers with Fox, Wolf, and Lucario.
In Brawl, I cleared Boss Battles on Intense with every character, including once as Nolimar. I also cleared it on Intense w/o using any heart containers. I have accomplished that feat thus far with Marth, Fox, Wolf, Lucario, and Captain Falcon.
In Cruel Brawl, I obtained at least 1 KO with every character, and obtained 46 KOs with Meta Knight.
In Brawl, I have collected every CD, trophy, and sticker. Note that I do not considered this to be that impressive and I'm simply listing it because other users have (the same applies for collecting the Melee trophies).

Competency Chart

This is a chart showing my competency with every character in Brawl. I once tested every character in Brawl to see who was truly my best. However, the testing was against computer players, and took place in the summer of 09. As such, the results are very outdated, and I now judge my competency chart by my analysis of my characters' performance against capable human competition. When deciding a character's position, I analyze their performance against human players, how comfortable and fluid I feel playing the character, my knowledge of the character beyond statistics, and how often I win with them. I included a number of my overall judgment of my competence with the character, as a means to show the difference between characters. Wolf, being my best, is given 15.00, which every other character is judged upon in comparison.

I also have a competency chart done for Brawl Minus. However, I do not have much to analyze in it, so it is largely estimation and feeling based. As such, it likely contains inaccuracies. I also omitted numerical ratings due to the lack of data to analyze.

Future Projects

These shall be done eventually when I get around to it.

Revising all subspace enemy articles.
Updating the Brawl Minus article.
Rewrite the Dedede SSBB article to not be such a mess.
Revise every character article to some degree (Melee and Brawl).
Try to help revive the smasher namespace. Its coverage of Brawl competitive play is just pathetic.
Finding post calculation knockback values for every hitbox of every attack in Brawl, to then objectively measure the power of each character.
