'''BeastModePaul''' is a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Hero}} player from Florida, considered one of the greatest Hero players of all time, alongside {{Sm|Akakikusu}}. He broke out onto the global scene towards the end of 2023, especially after placing 17th at {{Trn|Port Priority 8}} defeating {{Sm|Glutonny}} and {{Sm|Sisqui}}. As such, he became the only Hero player to rank above Akakikusu in the post-pandemic metagame, ranking 79th in 2023. Since then, he has become a consistent threat at top-level ''Ultimate'' in North America, most notably placing 5th at {{Trn|Riptide 2024}}. He is also the first Hero player to win an A tier, doing so at {{Trn|MomoCon 2025}}.
