'''Zain''' (originally known as '''tekkenz''') is a ''[[Melee]]'' {{SSBM|Marth}} main from Reston, Virginia who is currently residing in Blacksburg, Virginia. He is considered one of the greatest Marth players of all-time, as well as one of the best ''Melee'' players during the post-netplay era, being ranked first in 2022 and 2024. In addition, Zain was considered to be the best player in North America in 2020, due to both his win at {{Trn|GENESIS 7}} and his dominance in [[Project Slippi]] [[Online play|netplay]] events during the [[COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on competitive Smash|COVID-19 pandemic]]. He is known for his incredibly lethal punish game on [[space animal]] players and methodical play against [[floaty]] characters. He is currently ranked 1st on the [[SSBMRank Summer 2024]]. Aside from Marth, Zain is also known for defeating notable players both offline and online with {{SSBM|Roy}} while under the alias '''DontTestMe'''.

On April 12th, 2018, Zain was signed by {{Team|Panda}},<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PandaGlobalPG/status/984521696957870080|title= Welcome to the Plup Club: Zain joins Panda Global!}}</ref> but left on November 8th, 2019.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/PandaGlobal/status/1192925009074737152?s=20|title= Zain and Panda Global part ways}}</ref> After being sponsored for the duration of GENESIS 7 by Mogul Moves, {{Sm|Ludwig}}'s clothing brand, Zain was picked up by the {{Team|Golden Guardians}}, the official esports affiliate of the Golden State Warriors NBA team on February 6th, 2020.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/GoldenGuardians/status/1225479518799818752|title= We are also excited to enter the SSBM scene with @ZainNaghmi, the #G7 Champion!}}</ref> After three years, he would part ways with Golden Guardians on March 29th, 2023.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/GoldenGuardians/status/1641123051306729488|title=Zain leaves GG}}</ref> On April 6th, 2023, Zain was re-signed by Ludwig and joined {{Team|Moist Moguls}}.

==Tournament history==
Zain started playing competitively in May 2014 and quickly climbed the ranks, notably winning the [http://xanaduarcadian.challonge.com/tfameleetop16 S@X Fall Arcadian]. He gained recognition at the national level at {{Trn|The Big House 6}} when he defeated {{Sm|Plup}} 2-0 in pools. He went on to place 17th after beating {{Sm |KJH}} and {{Sm|Tafokints}}. He notably took a set off of {{Sm|Leffen}} 3-2 at {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash 3}} placing 13th, and sets off of {{Sm|ChuDat}} and {{Sm|SFAT}} 2-1 and 3-0 respectively at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2017}}, placing 5th at said event. At {{Trn|Smash Summit 6}}, he beat both {{Sm|Mango}} and Plup to take 3rd. Finally, at {{Trn|Shine 2018}}, Zain won his first major tournament, beating Mango and double eliminating {{Sm|Hungrybox}}, taking his first ever victories over the latter. Over a year later, he took his first set over {{Sm|Mew2King}} at {{Trn|The Big House 9}}, placing 2nd after losing two Game 5 sets to Mango in Grand Finals.

A few months after The Big House 9, Zain won his first supermajor at {{Trn|GENESIS 7}} without dropping a set, defeating Hungrybox 3-1, Mango, and Hungrybox again 3-2. As tournaments switched to online play due to COVID-19, Zain continued to dominate, winning several large online events such as {{Trn|Ludwig Ahgren Championship Series 2}}, 3 out of the 4 {{Trn|Slippi Champions League}} events, and finally {{Trn|Smash Summit 10 Online}} to cement himself as the best online player in North America, with Mango serving as his primary rival for the title.

In 2023, following a series of victories by {{Sm|Cody Schwab}}, Zain, Cody Schwab, and {{Sm|Ludwig}} organized [[The Match|a first-to-10 match]] between him and Cody Schwab, the winner of which would be automatically given 1st on the [[SSBMRank]] 2023 rankings. Zain lost 7-10, ending Zain's dominant stretch and cementing Cody Schwab as best player in the world.

===Other ''Smash'' games===
Zain briefly dabbled in ''[[Ultimate]]'' in response to {{Sm|Hungrybox}}'s 90-day ''Ultimate'' detox, with Zain choosing to play ''Ultimate'' for the same amount of time to "poison" himself. Zain's [[Twitch]] chat chose his main, and he ultimately went with {{SSBU|Roy}}. Although his ''Ultimate'' activity was primarily in the game's [[Online play#In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|online mode]], Zain did see some competitive play at two {{Trn|Coinbox}} events, however he failed to win a single set.

==Trivia==
*Although the correct pronunciation of his name—and essentially his tag—is "Zan" (like the beginning of "Xanax"), Zain has stated that he is fine with both pronunciations.<ref>{{citeweb|url= https://twitter.com/zainnaghmi/status/1305206033648881664|title=Zain or Zan}}</ref>
*Zain has defeated 5 of the members of the [[2018 MPGR]] top 6 (all but {{Sm|Armada}}):
**{{Sm|Plup}} at {{Trn|The Big House 6}} (and later beating him again at {{Trn|Smash Summit 6}} after Plup's ascension to "god-level")
**{{Sm|Leffen}} at {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash 3}}
**{{Sm|Mang0}} at Smash Summit 6
**{{Sm|Hungrybox}} at {{Trn|Shine 2018}}
**{{Sm|Mew2King}} at {{Trn|The Big House 9}}
*Since the COVID-19 pandemic, Zain sometimes competes in online tournaments by sandbagging under the tag "DontTestMe", where he goes solo {{SSBM|Roy}} in bracket, a character considered by many to be one of the worst characters in ''[[Melee]]''. Despite this, he has won multiple netplay events over other MPGR-ranked players.
*Zain's first gamertag was tekkenz. His father combined Zain's favorite game at that time, {{uv|Tekken}}, with the first letter of his first name.
*Zain has a knack for a variety of comedic sketches and impressions, the latter of which include Marge from ''The Simpsons'' and numerous ''Melee'' players (such as {{Sm|Wife}}, {{Sm|UnknownForce}}, {{Sm|KoreanDJ}}, and {{Sm|ChuDat}}).
**He has imitated Chu's penchant for eating raw onions on stream, substituting an onion for an entire lime (skin and all) instead.
* After losing to {{Sm|Axe}} at {{Trn|Apex 2022}}, Zain had only lost to 5 players since then in serious sets: {{Sm|aMSa}}, {{Sm|Jmook}}, {{Sm|Cody Schwab}}, Leffen, and Mang0. This streak ended at {{Trn|Luminosity Makes Moves Miami 2024}}, where {{Sm|Aklo}}'s Link defeated Zain 3-1 in Winner's Semi-finals.
