To say Dark Wizzy was disappointed in his placement would be an understatement, and he sought to prove the rankings wrong at {{Trn|Glitch 8 - Missingno}}, his first major following the list's full release. This desire motivated Dark Wizzy to pull best run of his career, running through {{Sm|Dabuz}} in a close 3-0, previous Glitch winner {{Sm|ESAM}}, and {{Sm|Tweek}} to place 2nd, the highest a Mario had placed at a major up to that point. This motivation continued into {{Trn|GENESIS 7}}, where despite falling to {{Sm|Maister}} in bracket, he made a notable Loser's run defeating Dabuz and {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}} in a close game 5 set to place 5th. Although he underperformed at {{Trn|Frostbite 2020}}, placing 17th after losing to Maister and MkLeo, his major and top 10 wins solidified himself in the top 20, with many players believing Dark Wizzy could potentially be a top 10 player. | To say Dark Wizzy was disappointed in his placement would be an understatement, and he sought to prove the rankings wrong at {{Trn|Glitch 8 - Missingno}}, his first major following the list's full release.

Unfortunately, this hot streak was snuffed out due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], which shut down offline competitive play for an entire year. Although many players chose to participate in the online metagame, Dark Wizzy decided not to due to his distaste for online, instead focusing on building a Twitch audience.

Although many players chose to participate in the online metagame, Dark Wizzy decided not to due to his distaste for online, instead focusing on building a Twitch audience.

=== | ===Playing catchup in a new metagame=== | ||
With offline slowly returning in 2021, Dark Wizzy marked his return to the scene at {{Trn|Smash Ultimate Summit 3}} in August 2021, having qualified by winning {{Trn|Phantom 2020}}. Unfortunately, Dark Wizzy prove himself out of practice, as he ended the tournament at 13th, being the only competitor who did not win a single set. Thus, Dark Wizzy spent most of 2021 attempting to catch up and adapt to a new metagame. Dark Wizzy saw disappointing results at {{Trn|Glitch 8.5 - Konami Code}} and {{Trn|Low Tide City 2021}}, where despite making top 32 he failed to garner any notable wins. Although there were hopes for a return to form following his 7th place run at {{Trn|Port Priority 6}} and his win over {{Sm|Tweek}}, Dark Wizzy stopped attending tournaments for the rest of the year. With his limited appearances and rough tournament runs, Dark Wizzy did not appear on the [[PGRUContenders]] list and fell out of the top 50 on the [[OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse]], placing 62nd. | With offline slowly returning in 2021, Dark Wizzy marked his return to the scene at {{Trn|Smash Ultimate Summit 3}} in August 2021, having qualified by winning {{Trn|Phantom 2020}}.
