With Diddy Kong, Tweek maintains an extremely execution-heavy playstyle, which relies on an overall patient gameplan, waiting for his opponent to make mistakes before unleashing an explosive punish game that is unique amongst Diddy Kong players. He is known for his incredible creativity with Banana Peel in all aspects of the game, whether it be ledge-trapping, edge-guarding, combos, or disadvantage, Tweek has taken the core aspect of Diddy's gameplan to a higher level.
