| == Trivia ==
| |
| *Ludwig won a best of 1, [https://youtu.be/mDHZq2BALwM?t=294 $100 Money Match] against {{Sm|Zain}} at {{Trn|Smash Summit 8}}, in which Zain started the game with 1 stock to Ludwig's 4.
| |
| *Ludwig has beaten {{Sm|Chillin}}'s Mario at Smash the Record 2017 as HypedForSlicedBread, entering Top 8 on Winner's Side. This led to a First to 5 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OAy0OV7UUA $100 Money Match] at {{Trn|Mainstage}}. Chillindude barely won the money match.
| |
| *Ludwig was a roommate of fellow California smasher and former [[Beyond the Summit]] employee {{Sm|Slime}}.
| |
| **It's often joked that Ludwig's notoriety came from his friendship with Slime, leading to him sometimes being humorously referred to as "Slime's friend" instead of his name.
