'''Revan''' is a ''[[Smash 64]]'' player from Ottawa, Ontario, and considered by many to be the top North American {{SSB|Kirby}} [[main]], Ontario's best player and Canada's third strongest player after {{Sm|SuPeRbOoMfAn}} and {{Sm|The Z}}.

He is currently ranked ranked 1st on the Ottawa 64 Power Rankings and 30th on the [[2019-2020 Smash 64 Power Rankings]].  

Revan is renowned for being among the best with controller DI. He is also playfully know as the main '5 stock conch' player, a new tradition unique to ''Smash 64'', originated at ODS and continued at G3. He frequently does commentary and is know for his informative, analytical approach.

Since then, he has concentrated on ''Smash 64'' and become one of the most active console players in North America, making regular trips to Toronto, Montreal, and the U.S.A..  In April 2016, Revan traveled to Japan to participate in Kansai 2016 where he finished 13th. In February 2017, he participated in {{Trn|BEAST 7}} in Sweden where he finished 2nd.

In August 2014, Revan created the ECHO tournament series in Ottawa, Canada and has acted as a [[tournament director]] and ''Smash 64'' tournament organizer.
