==Tournament history==
===Smash 4===
xHOPEx started out with ''Super Smash Flash 2'' in 2010 and later on got into ''[[Smash 4]]'' in early 2015, mostly playing online via [[Anther's Ladder]]. He later met fellow Danish player {{Sm|Laske}} who introduced him to the Danish smash scene, and eventually lead to him peaking to the #1 spot of the Danish Power Rankings. Finishing smash 4 as #2 on the Danish PR and results such as 4th at Valhalla, 17th at ESGA: Invitational and much more!
 
===Ultimate===
xHOPEx started the first month without a main but ended up settling with Isabelle and using a bunch of characters at the side, this was necessary for him as Isabelle is looked on as one of the worst characters in the game. Even with this problem, xHOPEx ends up finding himself at good placings such as 13th at {{Trn|Valhalla II}} and 9th at PXB2. Eventually picking up {{SSBU|Ken}} from a for fun character, to a Co-main after his buffs in patch 3.1.0. Using a deep pocket uterlizing Isa, Ken, {{SSBU|Roy}}, {{SSBU|Inkling}} etc, xHOPEx quickly got known as the best Isabelle in Europe and one of the best in the world.
 
After lackluster results at {{Trn|Monday Meltdown}}, xHOPEx decided that he had to seek out for a new main. As the meta evolved the flaws of Isabelle and her lackluster tool set for the meta took a tole on him, but he would finally find light on a correct character for him at the E3 nintendo Direct june 11th, 2019.
There Hero, the main characters of the Dragon Quest series along with Banjo & Kazooie got revealed and Hero got his attention. Seeing the interesting MP bar and a menu list, xHOPEx's interest for the character rose and he would not compete at a bigger scale event untill further notice of the character. Later on in time, Sakurai himself would showcase the interesting gimmick of Hero and his RNG gameplay. This sparked a lot of concern for a lot of competitors but sparked joy in xHOPEx and therefor decided to main Hero with a pocket Roy. Ever since the release of Hero a rise of results and peaks have landed on xHOPEx's path and is quickly marking himself as a valid threat with a character that might not have a big impact at the meta at the moment, but is causing fear in the community without a doubt.


==Tournament history==
===''Smash 4''===
+HOPE+ started out with ''[[Super Smash Flash 2]]'' in 2010 which helped him get into ''Smash 4'' in early 2015. Initially he spent most of his time on [[Anther's Ladder]]. However, he would meet fellow Danish player {{Sm|Laske}} who would introduce him to the offline Danish ''Smash'' scene. He quickly became one of the best players in Denmark and would eventually reach the number 1 spot Danish Power Rankings in January 2018. He ended ''Smash 4'' as 2nd on the Danish Power Rankings, with results such as 4th at {{Trn|Valhalla}} and 17th at {{Trn|BEAST 7}}.
===''Ultimate''===
+HOPE+ started the first month without a set main, but ended up settling with {{SSBU|Isabelle}}; however, he would constantly use secondaries because of Isabelle's weaknesses. Even with this problem, +HOPE+ found success in the early metagame of ''Ultimate'' with good placings such as 13th at {{Trn|Valhalla II}} and 9th at {{Trn|Phoenix Blue 2}}, and quickly became the best Isabelle in Europe and a contender for best Isabelle in the world. He would pick up {{SSBU|Ken}} initially as a for-fun character, then later as a co-main after his buffs in patch 3.1.0. With Isabelle, Ken, and a variety of secondaries such as {{SSBU|Roy}} and {{SSBU|Inkling}}, +HOPE+ easily became one of the best players in Denmark, placing 3rd on the first Danish Power Rankings for ''Ultimate''.
After lackluster results at {{Trn|Monday Meltdown}}, +HOPE+ decided that he had to seek out for a new main, as the evolving metagame had worsened Isabelle's flaws. After struggling to find a new main, he would finally find light at the [[E3]] [[Nintendo Direct]] on June 11th, 2019, where {{SSBU|Hero}} would be announced. He was interested in the character's MP bar and menu list and decided to stop competing at bigger-scale events until the character was released. Upon the character's release, although Hero's luck-based moveset sparked a lot of concern in the community, it instead sparked excitement for +HOPE+, who decided to pick the character up. With Hero, he has since seen even more success at tournaments. such as 33rd at the national tournament {{Trn|Valhalla III}} and 13th at the regional tournament {{Trn|Smash Contest: DoKomi 2020}}, and rose to the number 1 spot on the Danish Power Rankings.
