}}'''Legan''' is a Link main from St. Louis, Missouri, United States. He is regarded as being the world's top Link and has represented Link well offline. He is a notable and respected member of the Link community on AiB, where the world's best Links discuss the current metagame. He is very known for his instinctive playstyle and his speed with Link and also for his mastery of the "Don't get hit" strategy. He says himself he spent a lot of time learning the movesets of other characters to know when to punish and when to fall back. He is a VIP member of both PJL ("Project Link" Combo videos, featuring all the best Link's in the world) and PJL2.


'''Legan''' was a ''[[Brawl]]'' {{SSBB|Link}} main from [[Missouri]]. He was known as one of the best Link players in ''Brawl''{{'}}s history, with him often being considered the second best under {{Sm|KirinBlaze}} for most of ''Brawl''{{'}}s competitive life, with Legan achieving results at large [[Midwest]] regionals playing only Link that few other players of bottom tier characters could replicate. He was additionally a prominent member of the Link community on [[AllisBrawl]], where the world's best Links would discuss his [[metagame]], and was featured as a VIP member of both PJL and PJL2 ("Project Link" Combo videos, featuring all the best Links in the world, though these videos are no longer online).  
He started out playing Melee with Link and looked up to players like Aniki and Germ. In his early career in Brawl he watched the Japanese player Hashimo a lot and adapted that playstyle as his basis. Through the years he practice Link through Wi-fi and Offline smashfests, learning all of Link's options and when to use them most effectively.  


He started out playing ''[[Melee]]'' with Link, looking up to players like {{sm|Aniki}} and {{sm|Germ}}. In his early competitive career in ''Brawl'', he watched the Japanese player {{sm|Hashimo}} a lot and adapted that playstyle as his basis. Through the years, he practiced Link through Wi-Fi and offline smashfests.
He is also known to mention the fact that he is, in fact, Legan. He especially favors mentioning it when he is being mocked or losing an argument.


Legan would stop actively competing in ''Brawl'' by the end of 2012, and when ''[[Smash 4]]'' released, he stated he wasn't going to get into the game as much as he did with ''Brawl'' and had more difficulty finding time to travel to tournaments at his age. He reiterated that while he had no intention to buy a [[Wii U]], he would play ''Smash 4'' with friends and might attend a tournament or two, but he would not be seen again in competitive ''Smash'' after 2014.<ref>https://smashboards.com/threads/link-checked-the-thread-wow-this-is-a-nice-thread.370194/page-23#post-18046384</ref>
He is a member of the smashcrew "God Kais".
