'''CaptainZack''' is a former ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Bayonetta}}, {{SSBU|Peach}}, and {{SSBU|Daisy}} player from New Orleans, Louisiana, he was considered the best Bayonetta player in the world prior to his inactivity and eventual ban from the competitive scene, trying to use her in competitive play even though he is critical of her drastic nerfs from ''Smash 4''. He was formerly ranked 32nd on the [[Spring 2019 PGRU]] and has wins on {{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|Wishes}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|Dark Wizzy}}, {{Sm|Prodigy}}, {{Sm|Goblin}}, {{Sm|Umeki}}, and {{Sm|Captain L}}. 

In {{forwiiu}}, he is considered one of the best Bayonetta players in the world (along with {{Sm|Tweek}}, Salem, {{Sm|tamim}}, {{Sm|Lima}}, and {{Sm|Abadango}}) as well as one of the best Peach players in the world (along with {{Sm|Samsora}}, Umeki, and {{Sm|Kie}}). CaptainZack was ranked 15th on the [[PGR 100|Panda Global Rankings 100]] and was formerly ranked 2nd on the [[Louisiana Smash 4 Power Rankings]]. He has taken sets off of top players such as Nairo, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, Ally, Salem, {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|Mr.R}}, {{Sm|VoiD}}, {{Sm|komorikiri}}, and Abadango.

He is known (and partly infamous) for his colourful personality, in and out of the game. He makes frequent usage of [[taunt]]s, as well as [https://clips.twitch.tv/2ggaming/ColorfulVultureOSfrog dances], many of which come from the [[Bayonetta (universe)|Bayonetta series]] itself.

On June 6th, 2017, CaptainZack was sponsored by {{Team|Phoenix1}}<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Phoenix1gg/status/872151449291165696|title=Phoenix1 confirms their sponsoring of CaptainZack}}</ref>, making him their second ''SSB4'' player after {{Sm|Tweek}}, and third ''Smash'' player overall following {{Sm|Duck}}. On May 17, 2018, he announced he was officially a free agent, thanking Phoenix1 for changing his life. On March 13th, 2019, CaptainZack joined {{Team|Polar Ace}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PolarAceEsports/status/1105951734868967425|title=CaptainZack joins Polar Ace}}</ref> Polar Ace dropped him on August 2nd, 2019 amid bracket manipulation and blackmail controversies. <ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PolarAceEsports/status/1157444378861953024|title=CaptainZack leaves Polar Ace}}</ref> He has since been embroiled in controversies surrounding his relationships with several adults while underaged, including with former professionals Nairo and Ally. Many of these relationships involved further blackmailing and extortion from CaptainZack. He was ultimately banned from the competitive ''Smash'' scene as a result of his actions.

==Tournament history==
===As a Peach main===
Prior to Bayonetta's release, CaptainZack was a {{SSB4|Peach}} main. While he was considered a very skilled Peach player, he had yet to obtain national fame, and was typically regarded as slightly inferior to fellow Louisiana Peach main {{Sm|Samsora}}.

===Bayonetta's release===
Following Bayonetta's release as a DLC character, CaptainZack, being a fan of the character, decided to pick her up. His big out-of-region breakout tournament was [[2GGT: Abadango Saga]], where he sent Larry Lurr to the losers bracket and finished 9th place at the event. Following that, he attended [[The Big House 6]], where he notably eliminated {{Sm|ESAM}} and double-eliminated {{Sm|Mew2King}}, finishing 17th after losing a Bayonetta mirror match to {{Sm|Salem}}.

===Becoming the best Bayonetta===
Before CaptainZack, Salem was widely considered to be the best Bayonetta main. However, CaptainZack was quickly emerging as competition for that title. After 4th place finishes at both [[GENESIS 4]] and [[2GGC: Civil War]], along with outplacing Salem at most events both players attended, the general consensus shifted towards CaptainZack being the better Bayonetta player.

===Losing the title===
However, not too long afterwards, Salem would be once again a contender for the best Bayonetta player. Salem won EVO 2017, and due to Salem's victory in a prestigious tournament, CaptainZack was then considered to be either on par or now below Salem. CaptainZack himself notably considers Salem the better Bayonetta player.

On top of this, {{Sm|Lima}}, {{Sm|tamim}}, and {{Sm|Tweek}} have also become contenders for the best Bayonetta main as tamim and Tweek have not only outplaced Zack at many tournaments consistently, but they have also beaten him and have scored higher than him on the Panda Global Rankings, as well as Salem was ranked 2nd on the fourth PGR and 5th the fifth PGR. And with Lima's recent win at EVO 2018 including double eliminated Zack himself, many have debated on who the best Bayonetta is as they are often considered to be at the same level of or slightly above CaptainZack.

==Controversies==
===Blackmailing/Bracket Manipulation===
On August 2nd, 2019, around the time of [[Smasher:Ally#Retirement/Ban|Ally's controversy]], a since-deactivated [[Twitter]] account going by the name of "The Truth" posted that CaptainZack pressured Ally into dating him, and that he blackmailed Ally into intentionally losing games to {{Sm|Zackray}} at {{Trn|2GG: Prime Saga}} and {{Sm|Nairo}} at {{Trn|MomoCon 2019}}. A few hours later, CaptainZack, in a Twitlonger, confirmed the rumors about manipulating Ally, and revealed more information about their relationship. He also stated that he was forcing Ally to drop games in hopes that Ally would leave him, and that he was getting more and more upset as Ally was able to have continued success.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sqvg15|title=CaptainZack's Twitlonger}}</ref> He was subsequently dropped by his team, Polar Ace, as a result of the incident.

Due to the incident, Zack was also banned from competing at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2019}}. He was, however, allowed to attend as a spectator, and confirmed the decision on Twitter.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/CaptainZack_/status/1158086160356298752|title=CaptainZack confirms being banned from Super Smash Con 2019 as a competitor}}</ref> {{Team|2GGaming}} also banned him from all 2GG tournaments on August 5th.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/2GGaming/status/1158464184801058816|title=2GGaming announces CaptainZack's ban}}</ref> 2GG notably organized both of the tournaments in which Zack admitted to manipulating brackets. Since this controversy came to light, CaptainZack has not entered in offline brackets and is considered inactive.

On January 16th, 2020, the SSBConductPanel released a statement where they advised an indefinite ban for CaptainZack with a chance to appeal after 5 years<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/SSBConductPanel/status/1217919442795012096|title=SSBConductPanel's advised ban}}</ref>. This decision was met with significant backlash, with many players such as {{Sm|MVD}} and {{Sm|Fatality}} pointing out that {{Sm|Mew2Queen}} only had half of CaptainZack's sentencing for sexual harassment. The controversial ban was brought up again in late June 2020 amidst a number of bans on other Smashers, and the hashtag "UnbanCaptainZack" trended on Twitter. The SSBConductPanel released a statement on June 29th defending their decision, which caused more backlash as people noted that they did not go into the details of the decision. The panel later made another statement saying that they could not provide anything else because it involved private information<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/SSBConductPanel/status/1277290996871675906|title=SSBConductPanel's June statement, with their second statement attached at the end of the thread}}</ref>. [[VGBootCamp]] made a post the following day saying that they were going to ignore the panel's ruling and only giving CaptainZack a one-year ban<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/VGBootCamp/status/1277687442032807939|title=VGBootCamp's statement}}</ref>. This decision was also controversial, with people such as {{Sm|The Crimson Blur}}, who has seen the aforementioned private information, and {{Sm|Glyphmoney}}, who was part of the panel's investigation on {{Sm|Promaelia}}, disagreeing with the decision<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/oxy_crimson/status/1277742388530671618|title=The Crimson Blur's statement}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sra4fh|title=Glyphmoney's statement (last few paragraphs)}}</ref>. On July 5, 2020, {{Sm|D. Disciple}} revealed text messages between Ally and CaptainZack confirming that CaptainZack threatened to expose Ally if he did not lose to Zackray, contradicting CaptainZack's opening Twitlonger statement.<ref>https://twitter.com/D_DiscipIe/status/1279956047516532736</ref>

===Manipulated Claims on Nairo===
:''Further information: [[Smasher:Nairo#Sexual misconduct allegations, ban, and repudiation of allegations]]''
On September 14th, 2020, several claims in CaptainZack's accusation of Nairo were brought into question when {{Sm|tamim}} released a TwitLonger. In it, he claimed that Zack manipulated his TwitLonger on Nairo by filling it with lies; notably, he claimed that CaptainZack initiated the first sexual contact with Nairo, who was allegedly still asleep at that time. tamim also pointed out how Zack twisted the wording to make it look like Nairo was paying Zack hush money when it was, in fact, Zack who requested money from Nairo. Furthermore, tamim said that CaptainZack was "a very sneaky and devious person" and had attempted to seduce and manipulate several other adults besides Ally and Nairo <ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srda66|title=tamim's statement}}</ref>. tamim also claimed that Zack wasn't worried about facing retribution for being in a relationship with Ally because he was a minor.

Two days later, CaptainZack would reach out to tamim where he confirmed a few things stated in tamim's TwitLonger, including asking Nairo for money and the minor excuse. tamim also stated that CaptainZack no longer planned to be part of the community<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srdcq6|title=CaptainZack's statement through tamim's TwitLonger}}</ref>. Despite this claim, CaptainZack continued to attend Louisiana locals until he was banned in October.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/KirbyKid__/status/1362836156124127233|title=CaptainZack's ban in Louisiana}}</ref>

==Trivia==
*While [[commentary|commentating]] at {{Trn|TGC 7}}, CaptainZack revealed that his tag isn't a reference to {{Sm|CaptainJack}} as commonly thought. Instead, it originates from his usage of {{SSBB|Olimar}} in ''[[Brawl]]''.
*CaptainZack is also a very skilled [[bulbapedia:Pokkén Tournament|Pokkén Tournament DX]] player, placing first at the [[PAX_Arena_at_PAX_West_2017|PAX West 2017]] Pokkén Tournament DX event. He plays [[bulbapedia:Chandelure (Pokémon)|Chandelure]].
*Along with {{Sm|Lima}} and {{Sm|tamim}}, CaptainZack has a negative reputation for being one of the "villains" in the ''Smash'' community due to maining {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} as well as being considered "disrespectful" when he plays the game. This has led to some disrespecting and harassing him, such as being booed when he plays, especially at {{Trn|EVO 2018}} due to his controversial grand finals set with {{Sm|Lima}}.
*CaptainZack is famous for acting out {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}'s taunts and dances during tournaments as shown at {{Trn|2GGC: Civil War}}, {{Trn|CEO 2017}}, {{Trn|CEO 2018}}, and {{Trn|EVO 2018}}. This has since become controversial as many have stated that he does this to disrespect his competitors while others say he does it to represent his love for the Bayonetta franchise.
