PC Chris spent years in a semi-retired state; while he still participated in several national tournaments and usually made it into the bracket, his results were not nearly as notable as they once were. PC Chris returned to the ''Melee'' scene in May 2014 at the event Justice 3, with this being confirmed towards the end of said event's trailer. He placed 17th in ''Melee'' singles at the event. However, he has not made any notable appearances at tournaments since. | PC Chris spent years in a semi-retired state; while he still participated in several national tournaments and usually made it into the bracket, his results were not nearly as notable as they once were.

Needless to say, this old dog is eager to learn some new tricks. I've missed you, Brothers." Shortly after, he announced his interest in returning to Melee in hopes to compete consistently at high level play once again. He also appeared on {{sm|Chillin}}'s Twitch stream series Nostalgia Nights detailing his return to Smash and his history in Smash over the past decade. PC Chris shortly after attended the tourney Neo Nebulous Beta 2, where he played 13th, though he wouldn't make an impact until Super Nebulous 2 on January 24th, 2015, where he made it into pro bracket in 2nd seed of his pool. He lost to {{Sm|Ice}} first round, but was able to take Game 1, much to the shock of many. He then defeated {{Sm|Eikelmann}} in loser's before being defeated by {{Sm|Lord HDL}} 2-0 to get 17th. | ||
PC Chris attended [[Apex 2015]], where he nearly made bracket, placing 49th of 1,037 competitors. In it, he placed 2nd in his 1st round pool, losing only to {{Sm|Fuzzyness}}, a top level European smasher. In 2nd round pools, he defeated {{Sm|Velocity}} and {{Sm|ROFL}}, and had a close set with {{Sm|Kalamazhu}}, zero to death-ing him in the opening of Game 1 | PC Chris attended [[Apex 2015]], where he nearly made bracket, placing 49th of 1,037 competitors.

He later fought Ken in the Salty Suite, where he lost the first game as Fox, but switched to Falco starting with game 2. The match went to Game 5 last stock, but PC Chris won it out 3-2 with a JV2 last game. He then proceeded to surf the crowd as celebration. | ||
