| '''Darc''' is a semi-retired {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} main and also plays {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}, {{SSBM|Marth}}, and {{SSBM|Fox}}. He rose to a high level of play in a short amount of time and regularly teams with his brother, {{Sm|Dazwa}}. He was ranked as high as 3rd on the [[New England Melee Power Rankings]] but is currently considered inactive. He was formerly ranked 1st on the [[Maine Power Rankings]] for ''[[Melee]]'' before moving from the state. He notably placed 2nd in doubles at [[GENESIS]] with his partner {{Sm|Scar}}, as well as 2nd at [[Apex 2009]] in doubles with {{Sm|Kage}}. He was one of the best {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} players in the world as well as one of the best doubles players. He was ranked 2nd on the [[Maine Power Rankings]] for ''[[Brawl]]'', behind his brother {{Sm|Dazwa}}. He was ranked 1st in Brawl in July 2009 on the [[New England Power Rankings]]. While he was active from 2014 to 2017, he placed very well in [[Project M]] tournaments, most notably placing 2nd at [[We Tech Those]] and [[Blacklisted]] in singles, and 1st in doubles at [[We Tech Those 2]], though he is currently retired from PM. He was ranked 1st on the Spring 2017 Massachusetts Project M Power Rankings, and was 19th on the [[PMRank 2016]]. | | '''Darc''' is a {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} main and also plays {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}, {{SSBM|Marth}}, and {{SSBM|Fox}}. He is an undeniably skilled player who rocketed to a high level of play in a short amount of time. He regularly teams with his brother, {{Sm|Dazwa}}. Contrary to popular belief, Darc and Tag$ are not real twins. |
|
| |
|
| Along with {{Sm|ThundeRzReiGN}}, he was considered one of the best ''[[Project M]]'' {{PM|Captain Falcon}} players.
