'''Ice''' is a German [[smasher]] located in the Berlin area. He is a major competitor in German tournaments, but has gone international and made strong impacts; his most notable showings were a 7th place finish at [[EVO 2013]] and [[GENESIS 3]] and 3rd at [[The Big House 6]], the latter being his best performance at an international tournament so far. He was considered to be one of the best ''Melee'' {{SSBM|Sheik}} mains in the world along with {{Sm|Mew2King}}, {{Sm|KirbyKaze}}, and {{Sm|Overtriforce}} before his switch to {{SSBM|Fox}}. He is known for his prowess in the Fox, Falco, and Sheik matchups, and has taken sets off of top professionals such as {{Sm|Zhu}}, {{Sm|Hax}}, Overtriforce, {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|Westballz}}, and even {{Sm|Leffen}} in Fox [[Ditto match|dittos]] in tournament. Ice is currently ranked 1st on the [[German Melee Power Rankings]], 3rd on the [[European Melee Power Rankings]], and 13th in the world on the [[2016 SSBMRank]].

On October 21st 2016, [[Luminosity Gaming]] picked up Ice as their first [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] player and second overall Smash player.

Ice quietly retired from competitive ''Smash'' after the {{Trn|Smash World Tour 2021 Championships}} (citing lack of motivation, stemming from the quality of top-level practice readily available to North American players compared to Europeans); in the post-[[Slippi]] era, he continues to recreationally practice ''Melee'' with Europe's top players.
