'''Lima''' is a | '''Lima''' is a Smasher from Dallas, [[Texas]], who is one of the best [[Bayonetta]] players across two different ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' titles, and one of the best ''Smash'' players from Texas. | ||
Lima made his debut in {{forwiiu}}, where he first broke out onto the global scene by placing 9th at {{Trn|EVO 2017}}, then following it up with a 2nd-place finish at {{Trn|Canada Cup 2017}} and his first major top 8 at {{Trn|2GGC: MkLeo Saga}}. He found even greater success in the following year, when he notably won {{Trn|EVO 2018}} in a controversial grand finals, where he and {{Sm|CaptainZack}} were accused for treating their sets in an unprofessional manner. Nevertheless, this victory, alongside several other top 8 major finishes, established Lima as one of the best {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} players in the world in the game's final year. | |||
Lima continued to play {{SSBU|Bayonetta}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', but he saw limited success in the early metagame, in part due to the severe nerfs Bayonetta received during her transition from ''Smash 4''. Nevertheless, Lima stuck with the character, and thanks to update patches that buffed Bayonetta, he saw improved results in the post-[[COVID-19 pandemic]] metagame, placing top 8 at several majors during this period, including placing 2nd at {{Trn|Litvitational 3}} and {{Trn|Cirque 4}}, and winning a major at {{Trn|GSM}}. As such, Lima is often considered one of the greatest Bayonetta players of all-time, alongside {{Sm|Bloom4Eva}} and {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}, and one of the players responsible for Bayonetta's rise in the metagame. | |||
On December 6th, 2017, Lima was signed by EarthRoot Gaming, which he left a few months later on May 25th, 2018. | On December 6th, 2017, Lima was signed by EarthRoot Gaming, which he left a few months later on May 25th, 2018. | ||

Perfectly spacing Bayonetta's aerials alongside mixing up with After Burner Kick to get 0-deaths and to simply just rack up damage, he is also known for how he plays the neutral game, having an excellent game plan as well as respecting the options his opponent throws out; if they whiff out an option, Lima will use Witch Time, and use this information to understand what unsafe option they threw out which puts his opponent in a terrible position, either their stock being taken or in disadvantage half the time. | ||
