'''Zhu''' is a retired ''[[Melee]]'' player from Northern California who was considered to be one of the best Falco players in the world. He was initially known most for [[self-destruct]]ing at crucial moments, dubbed "zhuiciding," and being the recipient of the original [[Wombo Combo]]. Zhu has made a series of combo videos named "Happy Feet," which showcase his Falco. At {{Trn|GENESIS}}, he defeated renowned smasher {{Sm|Mew2King}} in losers' quarters for his placement. At {{Trn|EVO 2016}}, Zhu has a remarkable performance, defeating players such as {{Sm|Lucky}}, {{Sm|ChuDat}}, {{Sm|Laudandus}}, and {{Sm|Darkrain}} to get 9th place.
