'''Bizzarro Flame''' (aka '''Bizz''') is a smasher from La Cañada Flintridge, California currently residing in San Francisco who mains {{SSBM|Ganondorf}} in ''[[Melee]]'', and is considered the second best Ganondorf main in the world behind {{Sm|Kage}}<!--Kage's results have historically been better than Bizz, not to mention Kage's still active and places well-->. He first became recognized for his technical gameplay after releasing the Ganondorf [[tech skill]] video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zexwVu-kh-I Ganon on Ice] in 2010, and has since then become a solid tournament threat. He has wins over {{Sm|Duck}}, {{Sm|Fly Amanita}}, {{Sm|Fiction}}, {{Sm|HugS}}, {{Sm|Squid}}, {{Sm|Ryobeat}}, {{Sm|Vro}}, and {{Sm|Calvin}}.
'''Bizzarro Flame''' (aka '''Bizz''') is a smasher from La Cañada Flintridge, California currently residing in San Francisco who mains {{SSBM|Ganondorf}} in ''Melee'', and is considered one of the best Ganondorf mains in the world (usually the second best behind {{Sm|Kage}}). He is currently ranked 11th on the [[NorCal Power Rankings|NorCal Melee Power Rankings]] and is currently ranked 18th on the [[SoCal Power Rankings|SoCal Melee Power Rankings]] and 98th on the [[2015 SSBMRank]].


He was formerly ranked 98th on the [[2015 SSBMRank]], 11th on the [[NorCal Melee Power Rankings]], and 18th on the [[SoCal Melee Power Rankings]]. He has found good tournament success, taking sets off a notable {{SSBM|Young Link}} player named {{Sm|Laijin}}, and bringing sets against top professionals such as {{Sm|Colbol}} and {{Sm|Leffen}} close. At [[I'm Not Yelling!]], Bizzarro Flame [https://youtu.be/XTt8hSfYWfc?t=3m29s took a game] off of {{Sm|Armada}}'s {{SSBM|Fox}}, forcing him to counterpick {{SSBM|Peach}}.
Bizzarro Flame first became recognized for his technical gameplay after releasing the Ganondorf tech-skill video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zexwVu-kh-I Ganon on Ice] in 2010. In addition to his advanced tech, Bizz has also become closely associated with the use of Ganondorf's rarely used up-tilt. His flashy playstyle has led to many infamous moments at tournaments; in particular, he [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VW1_dPY0dgM landed four down aerials] against {{Sm|Laijin}}'s {{SSBM|Sheik}} in the first game of their pools set at [[EVO 2013]] and finished off the stock with just an up aerial and forward aerial, plus a gratuitous Wizard's Foot spike after Laijin's recovery came up short, and he also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFlfHC1Rr8E landed five down aerials and a forward aerial] against {{Sm|Strain}}'s {{SSBM|Fox}} in the second game of their set at [[Kings of Cali 4]], before finishing off his stock by covering his recovery with an up tilt.


On February 2nd, 2016, Bizzarro Flame announced his retirement from competitive ''Smash'' and resignation from [[Team YP]] in order to focus on his career as an attorney. 24 days after his retirement, however, he announced on Twitter he would return to competitive ''Smash'', after quitting his job and moving in with his fiancée in San Francisco. On May 28th, 2017, Bizzarro Flame [https://twitter.com/Kyoto_eSports/status/868983013194989568 was signed in by Kyoto eSports], alongside {{Sm|Redd}} and {{Sm|ALP}}. On January 14th, 2018, Bizzarro revealed in a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UBGx4L-zhw YouTube video] that he signed another one-year contract with them.
At [[Apex 2015]], Bizzarro Flame played a $100 [[money match]] against {{Sm|Eikelmann}} in [[VGBootCamp]]'s Salty Suite, where he won 3-0. Originally, his opponent was Kage, but due to sickness, he was not able to attend. He and Kage finally had their set at [[EVO 2015]], where he lost 0-5. Despite his Salty Suite match, however, he would team up with him in doubles. They ended up netting 7th place.
==Playing style==
Bizzarro Flame has as an extremely flashy playstyle that revolves around brutal punishes, [[chaingrab]]s, and tricky movement, and frequently "disrespecting" opponents with excessive and sub-optimal moves. In addition to his advanced tech, Bizz has also become closely associated with the use of Ganondorf's rarely used up-tilt. His flashy playstyle has led to many infamous moments at tournaments; in particular, he [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VW1_dPY0dgM landed four down aerials] against {{Sm|Laijin}}, who is primarily a {{SSBM|Young Link}} main but played as {{SSBM|Sheik}} during this set. He also [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFlfHC1Rr8E landed five down aerials and a forward aerial] against {{Sm|Strain}}'s {{SSBM|Fox}} in the second game of their set at [[Kings of Cali 4]], before finishing off his stock by covering his recovery with an up tilt.


However, such a playstyle has also slightly held Bizzarro Flame back, as against stronger players, his commitment to less optimal approaches and movement can lead to him immediately losing the [[neutral game]]. Additionally, he struggles against defensive players, as they can often exploit Ganondorf's inherent weaknesses to camping, and prevent him from landing any attacks that could convert to a punish.
Additionally, at [[I'm Not Yelling!]], Bizzarro Flame [https://youtu.be/XTt8hSfYWfc?t=3m29s took a game] off of {{Sm|Armada}}'s Fox, forcing him to counterpick Peach.
