'''Sol''' was an ''[[SSB4]]'' {{SSB4|Little Mac}} player from Florida, and is considered one of the best Little Mac players in the world. Sol was ranked in the #1 PR spot for Mac Nation from 2015-2017. Recently he has renounced PR status on all local and national levels. He has taken tournament sets off of players such as {{Sm|Locus}}, {{Sm|Fatality}}, {{Sm|MVD}}, {{Sm|K9sbruce}}, {{Sm|saj}}, {{Sm|dyr}}, {{Sm|Ryo}}, {{Sm|Sinji}} and {{Sm|Salem}}.

Sol was the spearhead for the wired controller clause initiative, allowing for [[Wii U Pro Controller]]s, which he himself uses, to be utilised in tournament.

On December 31st, 2015, Sol was signed by Noble eSports.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/NobleGG/status/682761425341685760|title=Noble eSports signs Sol}}</ref>

==Trivia==
*His knowledge of the ''{{uv|Punch-Out!!}}'' series transfers to the original games as well, having beaten ''{{s|wikipedia|Punch-Out!! (Wii)}}'' while blindfolded.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtJqMRO__uA|title=MVG Sol's AMAZING Blindfolded Contender Run (+Glass Joe Gag)}}</ref>
*He attended {{Trn|CEO 2015}} in his breakout debut on a week-old fractured spine.
*Sol's height and weight nearly mimic his character's, at 5'7 and 120 pounds (1.7 metres and 54 kilograms). As a result of physical therapy, his weight is currently 140lb (63kg), which he has decided to maintain.
*Prior to his professional career as a ''Smash 4'' player, Sol was a training boxer and a clinicalling surgical technologist.
*In 2019, Sol had decided to put ''Smash'' on hiatus, citing the drama of the community as his reason for stepping away. In February 2020, he attempted a return to the competitive scene by attending Gainesville Stock Exchange 118, one month before the [[COVID-19_pandemic_and_its_impact_on_competitive_Smash|COVID-19 quarantine]].
**During his hiatus, he began playing ''{{s|wikipedia|Beat Saber}}'' as part of physical therapy for his spine. Within the first few months, he rapidly rose through the game's online rankings and at one point managed to place within the Top 100 players in the U.S. and one of the Top 300 players globally.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Solreth/status/1169440718869409794|title=Sol becomes Top 100 Beat Saber player in U.S.}}</ref> Currently, he has dropped to being within the Top 200 U.S. players, and the Top 600 players globally.
*Currently, Sol has no plans to continue playing ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' competitively. Though he briefly streamed the game on his [[Twitch]] channel on October 19th, 2021 in celebration of Little Mac receiving buffs in the [[List_of_updates_(SSBU)#13.0.0|13.0.0 update]], he concluded that they were not significant enough to convince him to return to the game.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/Solreth/status/1450813621408305159|title=Sol reaffirms decision to remain away from ''SSBU''}}</ref>
