'''La Luna''' (formerly known as '''The Moon''') is a {{SSBM|Marth}} main from New York. He is considered one of the rising stars in the region; he had only started playing around 2011 under {{Sm|DJ Nintendo}}, but has climbed the ranks quickly.

He is currently ranked 3rd on the [[NYC Metropolitan Area Melee Power Rankings]] and 27th on the [[Summer 2018 MPGR]].

*He is also known for being the origin of a commentator meme in the ''Melee'' community. Years ago, when he was not as well-known as a player, he claimed that one of Falco's most popular ledge getup options (the ledge hop double [[Blaster|laser]]) was actually an "unsafe" option, contrary to popular opinion. This was brushed off at the time, but frame data and advancements in the metagame have since shown that he was actually correct. As such, when modern Falco mains perform this technique and are punished for it, commentators will often reference La Luna and quote the history of his claim. | *He is also known for being the origin of a commentator meme in the ''Melee'' community.
