Vex Kasrani is a Brawl King Dedede player from the United States who plays Mr. Game & Watch as a secondary. He is Xzax's cousin. Vex is one of the best Bowser players in the United States, and is also considered one of the best King Dedede player in the world, managing to place quite well in regionals and nationals. He has defeated other top professionals such as ADHD, Xzax, Vinnie, Mr. R, Nakat, and DEHF in tournament. He also plays a rather competent Fox and Falco in Melee, but doesn't manage to place as well as he does in Brawl. Vex is known for his incredible powershielding abilities, being able to powershield large waves of fast projectiles consistently, as well as his preference of heavy characters outside of Melee.

In Smash 4, Vex was a notable Donkey Kong player in the Eastern United States, who previously played Bowser and Ganondorf. Vex was formerly ranked 6th on the second quarter 2017 Philedelphia power rankings, and once ranked as high as 1st in the last quarter of 2016.
