'''Toph''' is a professional ''[[Melee]]'' {{SSBM|Fox}} player from Honolulu County, Hawaii who currently resides in Daly City, California. He is currently ranked 24th on the [[NorCal Melee Power Rankings]] and was formerly ranked 97th on the [[2015 SSBMRank]]. He is mostly known for being a [[commentator]], with his static commentating partner being {{Sm|Scar}}.

Toph is fluent in Japanese, and he helped to provide Japanese commentary for the Top 8 of ''Melee'' at [[Apex 2014]] alongside {{Sm|Kounotori}} on [[CLASH Tournaments]]'s live stream. He also speaks Japanese for interviews.

Toph was also invited to participate in the [[E3 2014]]-held [[Super Smash Bros. Invitational]] tournament to play {{forwiiu}}, in which he used {{SSB4|Pit}}. Toph and {{Sm|Scar}} appeared as commentators in Nintendo's ''Smash 4'' event at San Diego Comic Con. The two also commentated together for the Top 8 bracket at [[EVO 2015]], [[EVO 2016]], [[The Big House 4]], [[The Big House 5]], and [[The Big House 6]]. He is also a co-host of the Scar and Toph Show, where the two discuss the state of the community and other topics. Since April of 2017, Toph has hosted (along with Scar) [[The Reads]], produced by ''Cross Counter TV''. On this show, Toph and Scar have a different guest every month, and they release 4 consecutive episodes weekly.

On September 8th, 2015, Toph was hired by [[Twitch]] as another representative of the Smash community, along with Scar, {{Sm|D1}}, and {{Sm|TheCrimsonBlur}}.
