ESAM began competing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' playing {{SSBM|Samus}} but became better known for his career in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', where he initially played {{SSBB|Pikachu}} before becoming a Pikachu and {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} co-main. He was considered the greatest Pikachu player of all-time and one of the best Ice Climbers players in the world in ''Brawl''{{'}}s later years. He broke out onto the scene after placing 4th at {{Trn|MLG Orlando 2010}} and has since placed top 8 at several other major events. He was considered one of the best players in ''Brawl'' in the game's final years, ranking 6th on the [[SSBBRank 2014]]. In addition, his ''Melee'' career also took off during this time, and he would be ranked on the [[SSBMRank]] across four different years. He also competed in ''[[Project M]]'' for a few years playing {{PM|Samus}}, and was one of the best Samus players in the world in 2014. | ESAM began competing in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

In {{forwiiu}}, ESAM continued to play {{SSB4|Pikachu}}, and was also considered the greatest Pikachu player of all-time in the game. He was a major advocate for Pikachu's viability as a top tier, and was able to showcase Pikachu's strengths by finishing top 8 at many majors during his ''Smash 4'' career, including placing 2nd at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2015}} and {{Trn|The Big House 8}}, the closest a Pikachu player came to winning a major. In addition to his Pikachu, he also had a {{SSB4|Samus}} secondary, which he used to win {{Trn|Combo Breaker 2017}} and infamously eliminate {{Sm|Ally}} at {{Trn|2GGC: Civil War}}.

In a similar vein to his ''Smash 4'' career, ESAM played {{SSBU|Pikachu}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' and was the best Pikachu player in the early metagame, becoming a major advocate for Pikachu being one of the best characters in the game. He became the first Pikachu player to win a major, doing so at {{Trn|Glitch 7 - Minus World}}, and is the only Pikachu player with more than one major win, having also won {{Trn|Glitch 8.5 - Konami Code}}.

At his peak, he was ranked 14th on the [[Fall 2019 PGRU]]. He became significantly less active in the post-pandemic metagame and eventually picked up {{SSBU|Mii Brawler}} as a co-main. Though his results have since been matched by {{Sm|ShinyMark}}, he is still considered one of the greatest Pikachu players of all-time. | ||
