'''Lima''' is a Smasher from Dallas, Texas, who is one of the best [[Bayonetta]] players across two different ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' titles, and one of the best ''Smash'' players from Texas.
'''Lima''' is a ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Bayonetta}} main from Dallas, Texas who is considered to be one of the best Bayonetta players in the world alongside {{Sm|Bloom4Eva}}. He is currently ranked 1st on the Dallas-Fort Worth Power Rankings, 2nd on the [[Texas Power Rankings#Super Smash Bros. Ultimate rankings|Texas Ultimate Power Rankings]], and 29th on the [[LumiRank 2023]]. Lima has wins over top players such as {{Sm|Glutonny}}, {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Riddles}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}}, {{Sm|MuteAce}}, {{Sm|Sisqui}}, {{Sm|Maister}}, and {{Sm|Kurama}}.


Lima made his debut in {{forwiiu}}, where he first broke out onto the global scene by placing 9th at {{Trn|EVO 2017}}, then following it up with a 2nd-place finish at {{Trn|Canada Cup 2017}} and his first major top 8 at {{Trn|2GGC: MkLeo Saga}}. He found even greater success in the following year, when he notably won {{Trn|EVO 2018}} in a controversial grand finals, where he and {{Sm|CaptainZack}} were accused for treating their sets in an unprofessional manner. Nevertheless, this victory, alongside several other top 8 major finishes, established Lima as one of the best {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} players in the world in the game's final year.
In {{forwiiu}}, Lima was also a {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} player and was considered to be one of the best Bayonetta players in the world by the end of the game's main competitive lifespan. His breakout tournament was {{Trn|EVO 2017}}, where he placed 9th. A year later, he won {{Trn|EVO 2018}} in a controversial grand finals, where he and {{Sm|CaptainZack}} were accused for treating their sets in an unprofessional manner. Lima is currently ranked 1st on both the [[Texas Smash 4 Power Rankings]] and [[Dallas-Fort Worth Power Rankings]] as well as 20th on the [[Panda Global Rankings 100]].
 
Lima continued to play {{SSBU|Bayonetta}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', but he saw limited success in the early metagame, in part due to the severe nerfs Bayonetta received during her transition from ''Smash 4''. Nevertheless, Lima stuck with the character, and thanks to update patches that buffed Bayonetta, he saw improved results in the post-[[COVID-19 pandemic]] metagame, placing top 8 at several majors during this period, including placing 2nd at {{Trn|Litvitational 3}} and {{Trn|Cirque 4}}, and winning a major at {{Trn|GSM}}. As such, Lima is often considered one of the greatest Bayonetta players of all-time, alongside {{Sm|Bloom4Eva}} and {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}, and one of the players responsible for Bayonetta's rise in the metagame.


On December 6th, 2017, Lima was signed by EarthRoot Gaming, which he left a few months later on May 25th, 2018.

==Playstyle==
==Playstyle==
Lima plays an unconventional stylish and punish game. Perfectly spacing Bayonetta's aerials alongside mixing up with After Burner Kick to get 0-deaths and to simply just rack up damage, he is also known for how he plays the neutral game, having an excellent game plan as well as respecting the options his opponent throws out; if they whiff out an option, Lima will use Witch Time, and use this information to understand what unsafe option they threw out which puts his opponent in a terrible position, either their stock being taken or in disadvantage half the time.

===Meeting up with {{Sm|CaptainZack}}===
On May 28th, 2022, during the events of {{Trn|MomoCon 2022}}, a picture of Lima, {{Sm|Mystearica}} and a group of other people had surfaced where the group had met up with CaptainZack during the event. CaptainZack, having been officially banned from competitive play in October 2020 following [[Smasher:CaptainZack#Manipulated Claims on Nairo|manipulated sexual allegations]] as well as [[Smasher:CaptainZack#Blackmailing/Bracket Manipulation|bracket manipulation and blackmailing]] towards fellow smashers, attended MomoCon as a guest, where sometime during the event he met up with Lima, Mystearica and a group of other people. Lima took a picture of them and posted it to Twitter.<ref>{{cite_web|url=http://web.archive.org/web/20220529031144/https://www.twitter.com/limabayo_/status/1530748644156133377|title=Mirror of the Twitter post with the picture.}}</ref> This was met very poorly by the community, who critiziced both Lima's and Mystearica's actions for associating with Zack after he had been removed from the community.
Lima has since then deleted the picture, although several other accounts have reposted screenshots of it.
