Joel Alvarado, aka "Isai", is the World Champion of Super Smash Bros. and was ranked 7th best in the United States in Melee before he retired. He mains Pikachu and Fox in Super Smash Bros. (but can compete at the top level with any character) and mains Captain Falcon, Fox, and Sheik in Melee. He was also ranked first on the NorCal Power Rankings. Having retired from Melee, Isai now plays Super Smash Bros. exclusively, though he briefly came out of retirement from Melee to compete in the CGC at SFSU XV in San Francisco on March 6, 2010, in which he placed 17th. He also competed in TourneyPlay 4, in which he placed 1st in SSB 1v1 and 7th in SSBM 1v1.

Still regarded by some as the best Captain Falcon in the world, his other nickname is "Super King". His results at Melee have been outstanding, and to date he has placed above world champion Ken Hoang more often than any other player. Despite such success, Isai dislikes Melee and Brawl when compared to Super Smash Bros.. "Isai is too good" has become a meme in the Smash community. He is also known for sandbagging in Melee.

Isai and Ken constitute "El Chocolate Diablo", the strongest doubles team in the world circa 2006 which remained undefeated until their loss to Taj and Forward and won every tournament they entered until their defeat by Azen and Chillindude at MLG 2006 Chicago but came back next year and gained back their title.

Isai is known to have played using the tags "Vi" and "Mel". In Super Smash Bros, he goes by the tag Malva if its an online match on his profile and Isai if it is an offline match.
