Most notably, NEO was very well known for maining {{SSBM|Roy}} in ''[[Melee]]'' (with secondaries in {{SSBM|Marth}} and {{SSBM|Sheik}}), and was considered to be the best Roy player prior to his retirement, with results that current Roy players have yet to match, having multiple Top 8 finishes at [[major]] tournaments. He managed to beat {{Sm|Ken}} in Roy dittos, claiming the red costume in the process.
