Melee]]'', having competed since 2012, where he is a {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} [[main]]. He is widely regarded as the greatest ''Melee'' Captain Falcon player of all time and was also one of the best ''Melee'' players in the world in 2019. He is one of two Captain Falcon players to win a major, alongside {{Sm|Isai}}. In addition, he, {{Sm|Gahtzu}}, and {{Sm|Gravy}} are members of 20GX, a group dedicated to optimizing Captain Falcon. Aside from ''Melee'', Wizzrobe is also well known for playing {{SSB|Yoshi}} in ''[[Smash 64]]'', and is considered the all-time best Yoshi player in North America as well as one of the best Yoshi players in the world between 2013 and 2019. He has won two majors in ''Smash 64'', and remains the only ''Smash 64'' major winner who has also won a major in a different ''Smash'' game. | ||

In ''Smash 4'', Wizzrobe played {{SSB4|Sheik}} and was mainly active in early metagame, eventually dropping the game by the end of 2016. Although he was never globally ranked, he has defeated some of the game's best players, including {{Sm|Ally}} at {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash}} and {{Sm|Abadango}} at {{Trn|The Big House 5}}. Similarly, he was mainly active in ''Ultimate''{{'}}s early metagame playing {{SSBU|Wolf}}, and was best known for his run to 7th at {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash 5}} defeating {{Sm|Tweek}} along the way, becoming the only ''Melee'' player to top eight ''Melee'' and the most recent ''Smash'' title at the same major and also the lowest seed (having been seeded 97th) to place top 8 at an ''Ultimate'' [[Major (SSBU)|major]]. Unlike ''Smash 4'', Wizzrobe continues to compete in ''Ultimate'' on occasion, most notably defeating {{Sm|Kobe}} at {{Trn|Cirque 3.5}}. Finally, Wizzrobe was considered the best {{PM|Sonic}} player in ''[[Project M]]'' during the game's early years and remains the closest a Sonic player has came to winning a ''Project M'' major. | ||
