PPMD was also a talented ''[[Brawl]]'' player, mainly playing {{SSBB|Marth}}. He was formerly ranked 7th on the North Carolina Brawl Rankings.

===2015: The Apex 2015 Champion===

PPMD's most famous performance throughout his Smash career was his 1st place finish at [[Apex 2015]]. Despite his long breaks since EVO 2014 due to personal issues, PPMD managed to deliver himself up to attend Apex 2015. Nevertheless, many professionals and viewers were overwhelmingly surprised to see PPMD's fantastic dominance throughout this tournament, despite his long hiatus. Into the winners bracket, PPMD managed to take down many notable players such as {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} 2-0, {{Sm|S2J}} 2-1, PewPewU 2-1, and Armada 3-2. PPMD climbed into Winners as he met Leffen, who was recently claimed as a Godslayer after his victory against Mew2King, at Winners' Finals. While using predominantly Marth, PPMD managed to clutch the set against Leffen in a 3-2 victory. After PPMD's win against Leffen at Winners Finals, Armada swept through losers and indeed took down Leffen at Losers Finals in a 3-1 victory. PPMD faced off against Armada in Grand Finals where, despite Armada resetting the bracket in a 3-2 first set, PPMD ultimately took Apex 2015 with a 3-0 victory in set 2.

PPMD's final and most devastating singles performance was [[Battle of the Five Gods]]. The Battle of the Five Gods references the five "Gods" attending, including PPMD. During Round Robin, PPMD managed to be seated at the Playoffs Group after defeating {{Sm|Ice}} 3-1 and PewPewU 3-0 before losing against Westballz 1-3. PPMD wasn't able to make it through the Finals Bracket as PPMD was eliminated by every particular player he competed against at Playoffs Group. PPMD lost to Silent Wolf 1-3, Plup 1-3, {{Sm|MacD}} 0-3, and Wobbles 0-3, securing 10th place. This was a devastating defeat from PPMD and this marked his worst placement ever since Pound 4, where he got 9th place.  

===2017: Bad Moon Rising 2===

After a year of hiatus, PPMD began to improve his condition as he managed to start a more active lifestyle, providing him enough strength to enter [[Bad Moon Rising 2]]. Many viewers were surprised to see PPMD competing at Bad Moon Rising 2 in doubles and were anticipated to see his return to the scene in over a year. With his partner, LoZR, PPMD and his teammate successfully swept through Phase 1 of Pools until Top 32 where they met against Colbol and {{Sm|dizzkidboogie}}. In a hard-fought match, PPMD and LoZR were sent to losers at a 2-1 defeat but later made into top 8 losers. Many spectators began to questioned whether PPMD and LoZR could defeat Hungrybox and {{Sm|Crunch}} at Top 5 losers. In top 5 losers, PPMD and LoZR first takes a close first game against Hungrybox and Crunch after LoZR made a clutch upsmash against Hungrybox. During the second game, Hungrybox and Crunch managed to complete their first game in an another tense match. At game three, PPMD and LoZR took another game against Hungrybox and Crunch but at game four, Hungrybox and Crunch retaliate. At game five, PPMD and LoZR ended in a fantastic finish against Hungrybox and Crunch by an up throw to Fox's up-air and Falco's down-air on Hungrybox and a quick edgeguard against Crunch. After winning against Hungrybox and Crunch, PPMD and LoZR faced a rematch against Colbol and dizzkidboogie. Despite PPMD's and LoZR's efforts, they nonetheless lost in a 3-0 defeat, securing 4th place at Bad Moon Rising 2 doubles.

**One of PPMD's Twitch subscription emotes is of his own face emulating the "Kreygasm" emote.

**After PPMD's first post-EVO 2015 stream, he organized a Twitch raid on the [http://www.twitch.tv/gamesdonequick Games Done Quick channel] during their 2015 Summer event, which resulted in a massive "PPMD Kreygasm" spam in its chat that lasted for over thirty minutes until the channel's moderators censored the word "PPMD". Games Done Quick's staff made a remark about that particular event on their Twitter account. <ref>[https://twitter.com/GamesDoneQuick/status/625513073567100928]</ref> They eventually turned off the censor, and PPMD's name would still occasionally pop up in the chat since PPMD hosted the stream on his channel from the time of the raid until the event ended.

*PPMD is well known for keeping his composure during matches, although he is a much more outgoing person than his Smash sets let on, as seen when he [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-HwvtRjDEI gets excited for Twitch's victories during Bad Moon Rising].

*PPMD has a bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

*When he still played for Evil Geniuses, PPMD wore shirt number 11. He explained that all members of his family choose that number when they played soccer and is referred as "the Nanney number." PPMD played soccer regularly with his siblings as well.
