==Trivia==
== Trivia ==
*At {{Trn|Zero Challenge 2}}, CAOTIC participated in the "[[Bowser Challenge]]" on the {{SSBM|Bowser}} team with {{Sm|MagnuM}} and {{Sm|Gimpyfish}}.
*CAOTIC was one of three Bowsers to participate against the unfortunate victims of OC2's "Bowser Challenge" matches which pitted an opponent on a team against [[MagnuM]], [[Gimpyfish]] and CAOTIC on [[Fountain of Dreams]].  
*CAOTIC was interviewed for the ''[[The Smash Brothers]]'' documentary and narrates the final sequence before the credits.
*In addition to playing Bowser, CAOTIC also forms one half of the team "Peaches on Ice" as [[Peach]] with [[Wobbles the Phoenix]].
 
*CAOTIC's obsession with the terms 'Boozer' and 'Cute' (usually spelt with multiple u's), proliferated in the community. [[Gimpyfish]]'s video [[Boozer Cute]], was titled after these obsessions.
