Aklo first rose to prominence after being voted into {{Trn|Smash Summit 11}}, where he defeated then-Top 5 player {{Sm|Axe}}. In the time since, he has commonly been regarded as one of the best players to emerge from the post-pandemic era. | | In ''Melee'', he has defeated players such as {{Sm|Rishi}}, {{Sm|2saint}}, {{Sm|Slox}}, {{Sm|Captain Smuckers}} {{Sm|42nd}}, {{Sm|Ryobeat}}, and {{Sm|TheSWOOPER}}. |
