'''Scar''', the self-proclaimed "most electrifying man in Smash today" (a reference to former WWE superstar wrestler The Rock), is a {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} [[main]] originally from Philadelphia but currently living in San Francisco, California, where he was formerly ranked 9th on the [[NorCal Power Rankings|NorCal Melee Power Rankings]]. He is a founding member of [[Melee It On Me]].

==Gameplay and Tournament Activity==

[[File:Scar Mic'd Up.png|thumb|left|Scar is introduced in the Smash Bros. Invitational rules video.]]

Scar started playing ''[[Melee]]'' in early 2007, meeting {{Sm|Cactuar}}, {{Sm|Pakman}}, and other Philadelphia players somewhat randomly. With Cactuar becoming his primary training partner, Scar enjoyed many of the perks of being a pro vicariously, and his intense dedication to the game resulted in his quick rise from obscurity.

Perhaps another reason for Scar's prominence is his extensive use of branding. He has self-promoted since the release of his first [[combo video]], ''I Killed Mufasa''. The video's success propelled him to what was then said to be "an undeserved level of recognition", and "catching up to his reputation" became one of Scar's most important goals.

Since then, Scar has become known as one of the best Captain Falcon professionals in America. He is also a co-founder of the crew "The Mini-Bosses." Scar has further cemented his position as one of the best Falcon players after placing 6th at [[GENESIS]], higher than any other Falcon player there. He recently moved to northern California and defeated another top-ranked Falcon, {{Sm|SilentSpectre}}, in a [[money match]] at his first northern California tourney, R3.

Scar, {{Sm|Prog}}, and {{Sm|D1}} were selected by [[Nintendo]] to commentate the [[Super Smash Bros. Invitational]] tournament. Their participation was revealed in the form of ''Smash 4'' newcomer-style images.

*Scar currently works for Twitch, and his face is a global emote that anyone can use (named PeoplesChamp).

**He continues to enter tournaments simply as MIOM|Scar.

*Scar commonly insists that he placed 5th at GENESIS, rather than 6th, forgoing the fact that he and {{Sm|Mew2King}} played out an additional set that would determine the actual 5th placed player and lost.

*A [https://youtu.be/LbtU3T-8ZgA?t=1h5m30s recent feud] involving Scar and {{Sm|The Crimson Blur}} nearly ended their friendship because of a long argument about who was the more relevant smasher; Scar eventually won because an outside fan recognized Scar from his EVO ''Melee'' commentary. They [https://twitter.com/bobbyscar/status/626506898250989568 took a picture] shortly afterwards.
