'''Elegant''' is a Smasher from Irvine, California who is currently residing in Chino Hills, California. He is regarded as one of the most well-known [[Luigi]] players in competitive play, having used the character to great success in both {{forwiiu}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.


Elegant is best known for his tournament performances in ''Smash 4'', where he was widely regarded the best and most successful {{SSB4|Luigi}} player of all-time, as well as one of the best players in [[SoCal]]. In addition to being the only Luigi player ranked on multiple [[PGR]] rankings, peaking at 11th on the [[PGR v4]] and ranking 27th on the [[PGR 100|all-time ranking]], Elegant's performance at {{Trn|GameTyrant Expo 2017}} marked the closest a Luigi player came to winning a ''Smash 4'' major, as he was only one game from winning Grand Finals reset. Elegant's performances improved Luigi's reputation in competitive play, leading the character to rise greatly between the third and fourth tier lists. In addition to singles, Elegant is also proficient in doubles: he was initially {{Sm|Aarvark}}'s teammate, with the team being considered one of the best doubles teams in the world, however towards the end of ''Smash 4'' he began to frequently team with other players to great success, winning {{Trn|Get On My Level 2018}} with {{Sm|SuperGirlKels}}, {{Trn|2GG: Hyrule Saga}} with {{Sm|Stroder}}, {{Trn|Low Tier City 6}} with {{Sm|Samsora}}, and {{Trn|The Big House 8}} with {{Sm|Scend}}.
'''Elegant''' is an ''[[SSBU]]'' {{SSBU|Luigi}} player from Irvine, California who is currently residing in Chino Hills, California, and is was considered the best Luigi player in the world from 2019 to 2022. Elegant has taken sets from players such as {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Shuton}}, {{Sm|Cosmos}}, {{Sm|Samsora}}, {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|ESAM}}, {{Sm|Chag}}, and {{Sm|Maister}}.

Ultimate rankings|SoCal Ultimate Power Rankings]], 8th on [[OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse/North America|OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse North America]], 14th on [[OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse]], and 41st on the [[PGRU v3 NA]].


Elegant is also known for his {{SSBU|Luigi}} in ''Ultimate'', where despite initial underperformances, he established himself as the best Luigi player from 2019 to 2022, becoming Luigi's primary top-level representative during this time. At his peak, he was ranked 14th on the [[OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse]] and had several top 8 major finishes, including placing 3rd at {{Trn|Mainstage 2021}}, the best Luigi major performance at that time. He has since left competitive play due to controversies and his rankings and results have been overshadowed by {{Sm|Raru}}, however he remains the second-best ''Ultimate'' Luigi player of all-time.
Elegant is also a prominent ''[[SSB4]]'' {{SSB4|Luigi}} player who was considered as the best ''SSB4'' Luigi player in the world. Elegant is currently ranked 5th on the [[SoCal Smash 4 Power Rankings|SoCal All-Time Smash 4 Power Rankings]] and 27th on the [[PGR 100|Panda Global Rankings 100]]. <!--Please keep the PGR list second.-->He was formerly ranked at the 0 spot on the [[NorCal Smash 4 Power Rankings]]. He has taken sets off of top players such as {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|Nairo}}, {{Sm|MkLeo}}, {{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|KEN}}, {{Sm|VoiD}}, and {{Sm|Mr.R}}.
