'''Tapion''' is a {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} player from Wisconsin. Though once widely acclaimed as the best player in Wisconsin, Tapion has not done much in terms of traveling and competing in larger, higher-level tournaments. He is a [[smasher]] rumored to ask the tough questions from time to time. Tapion made his name known through the coining of the term "[[Falcon_Punch#Tapion_Punch_Combo|Tapion Punch]]" - a combo using the [[Falcon Punch]] as a finisher. He changed his main to {{SSBM|Fox}} after a tournament at Whitewater, where he made a 2-set comeback against {{Sm|Jazzness}} with Fox. This sudden (albeit temporary) change upset Jiano, another well-known {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} player. Recently, Tapion has competed in tournaments with his Captain Falcon in both ''Melee'' and ''[[Project M]]''.

Tapion does not play ''[[Brawl]]'' anymore, but was once a leader of the Fatal 5. He used to play ''[[Brawl+]]'', but currently plays ''Project M''.

Tapion was previously ranked 1st on his region's ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' Power Rankings, and is currently ranked 1st in the Wisconsin Power Rankings.

Tapion also plays netplay under the alias "bloodhawk" and has been in the top 15 on the netplay [[Smash Ladder]].

==Isai, Are You Watching?==
In 2006, Tapion released a {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Evb-V4--Bsk combo video] entitled ''{{Sm|Isai}}, Are You Watching?''. It has since gathered over 200,000 views, and was even watched by Isai himself. The success of the video led [[YouTube]] user Seph05 to create a ''Brawl'' video modeled after the same combos in Tapion's original video.
