Skyjay is well-known for his high-risk, high-reward playstyle, looking for many opportunities to KO his opponent as fast as possible. Once he has his opponent trapped in the corner, he uses Alolan Whip to catch his opponents jumping out or shielding. Skyjay also frequently uses Revenge when he knows his opponent will attack out of disadvantage or approach predictably. He is also well known for instilling fear and nervousness in his opponents through his use of Revenge to have his opponents play more cautious yet predicable.

Ban[edit]

On October 10th, 2024, a document was released where the user accused the Mexican scene for not holding one of their players accountable just because they were a popular top player.[1][2][3] Later comments and retweets revealed the person in question to be Skyjay, with Twitter user Canario posting an image of a crude meme liked by Skyjay[4] and Twitter user Cliptori accusing Skyjay for admitting to having sexual relationships with a 14-year old when he was 18.[5] As a result, Skyjay was banned from all events held by the team Cosmic Hive, as well as the next Mexican Power Ranking.[6] Skyjay has repeatedly denied the accusations,[7][8][9] saying that the allegations were unfounded and that his actions were misinterpreted, but apologized for making others feel uncomfortable and offended for his inappropriate sense of humor.[10]
