| '''Ice''' is a German [[smasher]] located in the Berlin area, regarded as the best German player of all time. He was a major competitor in German tournaments before going international and making strong impacts; his most notable showings were a 7th place finish at {{Trn|EVO 2013}} and {{Trn|GENESIS 3}} and 3rd at {{Trn|The Big House 6}}, the latter being his best performance at an international tournament so far. He was considered to be one of the best ''Melee'' {{SSBM|Sheik}} mains in the world along with {{Sm|Mew2King}}, {{Sm|KirbyKaze}}, and {{Sm|Overtriforce}} before his switch to {{SSBM|Fox}}. He is known for his prowess in the Fox, Marth, and Sheik matchups, and has taken sets off of top professionals such as {{Sm|Zhu}}, {{Sm|Hax}}, Overtriforce, {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|Westballz}}, and even {{Sm|Leffen}} in Fox [[Ditto match|dittos]] in tournament. Ice was most recently ranked 2nd on the [[German Melee Power Rankings]] and 3rd on the [[European Melee Power Rankings]]; he was also formerly ranked in the S Tier on [[MPGRContenders Europe]]. | | '''Ice''' is a German [[smasher]] located in the Berlin area.

| On October 21st 2016, [[Luminosity Gaming]] picked up Ice as their first [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] player and second overall Smash player. Ice left the team on October 19, 2017.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Ice_Fights/status/920941997761982465|title=Ice leaves Luminosity Gaming}}</ref> On March 2nd, 2018, Ice was picked up as a {{Team|Red Bull}} athlete.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Ice_Fights/status/969645910547460099|title=Ice picked up by Red Bull Esports}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.redbull.com/de-de/mustafa-ice-akcakaya-interview|title="Mustafa "Ice" Akcakaya - Interview mit dem Smash-Profi" - Red Bull Esports}}</ref> He joined Cologne Gaming Network on December 8th, 2019.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Ice_Fights/status/1203730085557293056|title="Ice joins Cologne Gaming Network"}}</ref> | | On October 21st 2016, [[Luminosity Gaming]] picked up Ice as their first [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] player and second overall Smash player. |
| | |
| Ice quietly retired from competitive ''Smash'' after the {{Trn|Smash World Tour 2021 Championships}} (citing lack of motivation, stemming from the quality of top-level practice readily available to North American players compared to Europeans); in the post-[[Slippi]] era, he continues to recreationally practice ''Melee'' with Europe's top players.
