In neutral, ESAM plays aggressively due to the plethora of quick and safe options that often lead into a combo, which he will take to the furthest hit. His movement is also exemplary and improved upon in Smash 4 using [[Bidou]], with emphasis on [[perfect pivoting]] and [[Quick Attack]] canceling. This, along with his aggressiveness, allows him to continously pressure his opponent and force them offstage to where, with Pikachu's many options, he will edgeguard them and attempt to take their stock. However, if he cannot play aggressively, usually against players that can counter his aggression or stall the match to their pace, he can play campy and spammy, utilizing Pikachu's [[Thunder Jolt]] to limit his opponents options and force them to approach. | In neutral, ESAM plays aggressively due to the plethora of quick and safe options that often lead into a combo, which he will take to the furthest hit.

==Trivia== | |||
*ESAM is {{Sm|NickRiddle}}'s younger brother. | |||
*In ESAM's [[YouTube]] video "Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Why Samus?", he explains that his tag comes from a combination of his name "Eric" and "Samus" since Samus was the first character he mained in ''[[Melee]]'' and is one of his favorite video game characters. | |||
*When ESAM was around the age of 5, he used to bond with his father by watching him play Super Metroid, which birthed his love for both the Metroid series and [[Samus]]. | |||
*ESAM started taking Smash Bros. seriously and competing in 2005 with ''Melee''. | |||
*ESAM is also a top {{s|wikipedia|Divekick}} player. He won the ''Divekick'' event at {{Trn|CEO 2014}}. | |||
*ESAM sometimes goes by the alias "Mr. Clean", a reference to his bald head. | |||
*According to the 100,000 subscriber special on ESAM's YouTube channel, his favorite Pokémon is Dragonair. | |||
*Due to his attitude and tendency to immerse himself in drama, ESAM is seen as a controversial figure in the Smash community. He is well noted for starting confrontations with other players in social media, and for having questionable or unpopular opinions, particularly his insistence on {{SSB4|Pikachu}} being one of the best characters in ''[[SSB4]]''. The latter point has also started a meme in the ''Smash'' community as "#ESAMOpinions", being used to refer to any stance that is not widely shared. | |||
**Ironically enough, he sometimes uses said hashtag to denote how his opinion might not be widely shared in its entirety. | |||
**He also has a noted tendency to have his opinions be reversed on him, especially in regards to his opinions on characters.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://youtu.be/YqvuRRu3Pxg|title=#ESAMOpinions}}</ref> | |||
*ESAM is the most prominent user of the [[Bidou]] control scheme in ''Smash 4''; however, since he does not use Bidou for any character other than Pikachu, this sometimes causes him to have multiple control schemes in tournament, especially when controlling other characters such as {{SSB4|Samus}}. | |||
*ESAM is a member of a YouTube channel called Games Over Easy, where he plays games alongside fellow smash professional MVD.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1-QqL9jxX5T8YcYXTUEnLw|title=Games Over Easy}}</ref> As of December 2018, the channel has not uploaded any videos since ''Ultimate'''s release. | |||
*On April 19th, 2019, ESAM infamously lost a $500 money match against {{Sm|Samsora}} at {{Trn|Pound 2019}}, with Samsora winning 10-1 and both competitors subsequently joking about the match together on [[Twitter]]. | |||
**In the singles bracket at the same tournament, he lost to {{Sm|MuteAce}} 1-2 in Winners and lost to {{Sm|LingLing}} 2-3 in Losers, meaning he lost 15 total games to Peach at one tournament. | |||
*On September 15th, 2019, ESAM won his first major, being {{Trn|Glitch 7}}. Coincidentally, {{s|bulbapedia|Ash Ketchum}} from the {{uv|Pokémon}} [[bulbapedia:Pokémon anime|anime]] won a [[bulbapedia:Manalo Conference|Pokémon Championship League]] for the first time ever <!--this is excluding the Orange League, which was exclusive to the anime--> in the 22 years of the anime's run on the same day, making comparisons between him and Ash very widespread across the ''Smash'' scene on Twitter, due to both ESAM and Ash using [[Pikachu]] primarily. | |||
*ESAM is one of only six players to have a positive record on {{Sm|MkLeo}} in ''Ultimate'' (4-2), with the others being {{Sm|Shuton}} (2-0), {{Sm|KEN}} (2-0), {{Sm|jw}} (1-0), {{Sm|kameme}} (1-0), and {{Sm|Kurama}} (1-0). | |||
*At {{Trn|Glitch 8.5 - Konami Code}}, ESAM ended a two year streak for MkLeo, being that MkLeo hasn’t lost game four in a reverse 3-0 set in two years. ESAM remarkably managed to do this in Top 32 as well as Grand Finals. | |||

ESAM would eventually make a video called "Accountability" apologizing for his actions [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqi-LihivaQ&t=292s].
