'''Junebug''' is a smasher from Centreville, [[Virginia]], who has competed in several ''Smash'' titles.


'''Junebug''' is a smasher from Centreville, [[Virginia]], who was widely considered to be the best {{PM|Diddy Kong}} player in ''[[Project M]]'' from 2014-2016 and is still considered one of the best {{PM|Diddy Kong}} players in ''Project M'' (along with {{Sm|BaconPancakes}} and {{Sm|Luck}}), and was considered to be the best {{PM|Ganondorf}} player in ''Project M'' when he used to play him as a secondary. He also used to play {{SSBB|Lucario}} in ''[[Brawl]]'' and was once considered the best before the rise of {{Sm|Trela}}, having defeated several top players including {{Sm|DEHF}} and {{Sm|Mew2King}}. More recently, Junebug has showed greater interest in ''[[Melee]]'' and is a strong {{SSBM|Sheik}} player, having taken sets off players such as {{sm|Colbol}}, {{Sm|Zain}}, {{Sm|lloD}}, and {{sm|Syrox}}. Junebug was formerly ranked 2nd on the [[MD/VA Power Rankings|MD/VA Melee Power Rankings]], 4th on the MD/VA Project M Power Rankings, 6th on the MD/VA Brawl Power Rankings, 17th on the MD/VA Smash 4 Power Rankings, 34th on the [[PMRank 2018]], 40th on the [[SSBMRank 2023]], and 76th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]].
He is best known for his performances in ''[[Project M]]'', where he played {{PM|Diddy Kong}} and had a {{PM|Ganondorf}} secondary. He is considered one of the best ''Project M'' players of all time, and was generally considered to be the definitive best throughout 2015 for his dominant and consistent record. He went on a hiatus from the game after {{Trn|Olympus}}, and has made infrequent appearances since.


Junebug is currently considered to be one of the best ''Project M'' players of all time and was generally considered to be the best throughout 2015 for his dominant and consistent record. However, after {{Trn|Olympus}}, Junebug decided to go on a hiatus from ''Project M''. While he still plays the game, he has not returned to competing regularly. In late 2019, Junebug seemed to retire from competing in both ''Melee'' and ''Project M''.
Junebug is also known for his performances in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and is currently ranked 27th on the [[SSBMRank Summer 2024]]. Initially playing {{SSBM|Sheik}} and defeating players such as {{Sm|Zain}} at {{Trn|The Big House 7}} and {{Sm|Colbol}} at {{Trn|Royal Flush}}, he later shifted his focus towards ''Melee''{{'}}s mid-tiers to collect information and clips for his YouTube videos. He became especially known for his {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, whom he began playing in 2023. He not only established himself as the best Donkey Kong player in the world, defeating players such as {{Sm|Magi}} and {{Sm|Ginger}} at {{Trn|The Big House 11}}, but also became the leader of the "Donkey Kong" renaissance, with his success, alongside an upswing of results from other Donkey Kong players, spurring discussion on Donkey Kong's true potential. His ranking of 45th on the [[SSBMRank Summer 2023]] marked the first time a Donkey Kong player was ranked in the top 50 in a modern ''Melee'' global ranking.


In recent years, Junebug has played primarily mid-tiers in an effort to collect information and clips for his YouTube videos and has seen notable success with them, such as placing 13th at {{Trn|Double Down 2022}} with {{SSBM|Dr. Mario}}. Most notably, he began playing {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}} in 2023 and has established himself as the best Donkey Kong player in the world, ranking 40th on the [[SSBMRank 2023]] and defeating players such as {{Sm|Magi}}, {{Sm|Ginger}}, {{sm|Polish}}, {{sm|MoG}}, {{sm|Milkman}}, and {{sm|Juicebox}}; his success with Donkey Kong, alongside an upswing of results from other Donkey Kong players, helped spur discussion on Donkey Kong's true potential.
Junebug was a [[Lucario]] player in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''; in the former, he was once considered the best Lucario player before {{Sm|Trela}}'s rise, notably having wins over {{Sm|Mew2King}} and {{Sm|DEHF}}.


Junebug is also notably proficient at analyzing the metagame and its competitive mentality; having succeeded in multiple Smash games for over a decade, he has a unique perspective when it comes to Smash and competition. He has coached notable ''Melee'' top professional {{Sm|Zain}} to massive success.

Real name Arjun Rao
Location Centreville, Virginia USA

Junebug is a smasher from Centreville, Virginia, who has competed in several Smash titles.

He is best known for his performances in Project M, where he played Diddy Kong and had a Ganondorf secondary. He is considered one of the best Project M players of all time, and was generally considered to be the definitive best throughout 2015 for his dominant and consistent record. He went on a hiatus from the game after Olympus, and has made infrequent appearances since.

Junebug is also known for his performances in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and is currently ranked 27th on the SSBMRank Summer 2024. Initially playing Sheik and defeating players such as Zain at The Big House 7 and Colbol at Royal Flush, he later shifted his focus towards Melee's mid-tiers to collect information and clips for his YouTube videos. He became especially known for his Donkey Kong, whom he began playing in 2023. He not only established himself as the best Donkey Kong player in the world, defeating players such as Magi and Ginger at The Big House 11, but also became the leader of the "Donkey Kong" renaissance, with his success, alongside an upswing of results from other Donkey Kong players, spurring discussion on Donkey Kong's true potential. His ranking of 45th on the SSBMRank Summer 2023 marked the first time a Donkey Kong player was ranked in the top 50 in a modern Melee global ranking.

Junebug was a Lucario player in both Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4; in the former, he was once considered the best Lucario player before Trela's rise, notably having wins over Mew2King and DEHF.

In addition to competitive play, Junebug is also notably proficient at analyzing the metagame and its competitive mentality; having succeeded in multiple Smash games for over a decade, he has a unique perspective when it comes to Smash and competition. He has coached notable Melee top professional Zain to massive success.
