'''iBDW''' is a ''[[Melee]]'' [[smasher]] from Queens, New York, previously having attended college in Rochester, New York before graduating. He originally began competing out of curiosity for how far he could progress in late Spring of 2015, but after having difficulty finding practice in person he began grinding on Anther's Ladder, where he quickly rose to the top of the rankings. His play style makes heavy usage of {{SSBM|Fox}}'s up-air for juggles, his tilts and mobility for zoning and approaching, and quick out of shield options to create openings or end stocks.  
'''Cody Schwab''', formerly known as '''iBDW''', is a ''[[Melee]]'' [[smasher]] from Queens, New York who is currently considered the best {{SSBM|Fox}} player in the world, and was considered the best ''Melee'' player in the world in 2023. He originally began competing out of curiosity for how far he could progress in late Spring of 2015, but after having difficulty finding practice in person he began grinding on [[Anther's Ladder]], where he quickly rose to the top of the rankings. His play style makes heavy usage of Fox's up-air for juggles, his tilts and mobility for zoning and approaching, and quick out of shield options to create openings or end stocks. He is also famed for his heavy use of fulljumping to find openings and beat out approaches.


He has wins over players such as {{Sm|Hungrybox}}, {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|aMSa}}, {{Sm|SFAT}}, {{Sm|Swedish Delight}}, {{Sm|HugS}}, {{Sm|Westballz}}, {{Sm|Shroomed}}, {{Sm|lloD}}, {{Sm|KJH}}, {{Sm|Hax$}}, {{Sm|Fiction}}, {{Sm|ARMY}}, and many others. He is currently ranked 1st on the [[NYC Metropolitan Area Melee Power Rankings]] and 34th on the [[2018 MPGR]].
He is currently ranked 2nd on the [[SSBMRank Summer 2024]], and was formerly ranked 1st on the [[New York City Power Rankings|New York City Melee Power Rankings]] and 3rd on the [[SoCal Melee Power Rankings]].
 
In pools of {{Trn|Smash Summit 8}}, Cody Schwab went 0-3 losing to Zain 1-3, {{Sm|Spud}} 2-3 and {{Sm|Ginger}} 1-3, earning himself the bottom seed in main bracket, but once in main bracket he would go on to beat {{Sm|S2J}} 3-0 before losing to {{Sm|Trif}} 2-3. In losers, Cody Schwab would beat {{Sm|moky}} 3-2, Mango 3-1, {{Sm|aMSa}} 3-0, and {{Sm|Hungrybox}} 3-1, before finally falling to {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} 1-3, placing 4th.
 
In September 2021, after almost a year of exceptionally strong performances online, Cody Schwab would claim his first ever major tournament win at {{Trn|Riptide}}. He defeated Hungrybox 3-1, and then {{Sm|Plup}} 3-2 and 3-1 in two back to back sets to win the tournament without dropping a set.
 
Cody Schwab would later win his first supermajor at {{Trn|Smash Summit 12}} in December 2021. He notably defeated Hungrybox 3-1, {{Sm|Leffen}} 3-2, aMSa 3-1, Zain 3-2, and Mango 3-0 to win the tournament without dropping a set, claiming his first set win over Zain in the process and finally defeating every player that was ranked above him on the 2019 MPGR.
 
After a series of victories rivaling that of Zain in 2023, Zain, Cody Schwab, and {{Sm|Ludwig}} organized [[The Match|a first-to-10 match]] between him and Zain, the winner of which would be automatically given 1st on the [[SSBMRank]] 2023 rankings. He defeated Zain 10-7, firmly cementing his place as best in the world.
 
Cody Schwab was sponsored by {{Team|Eggdog Esports}}, an endeavor of YouTube video creator zamsire, for the duration of multiple tournaments, including {{Trn|Battle of BC 5}}, {{Trn|Ludwig Ahgren Championship Series 5}}, {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}}, and {{Trn|Shine 2023}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230708010422/https://twitter.com/iBDWSSBM/status/1659640043093344257|title=Cody Schwab's BOBC5 sponsorship}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230708005715/https://twitter.com/eggdogesports/status/1677366539006222344|title=Cody Schwab's LACS 5 sponsorship}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230829005621/https://twitter.com/EggdogEsports/status/1688641605295845376|title=Cody Schwab's SSC 2023 and Shine 2023 sponsorships}}</ref> In a similar fashion, he was sponsored by Nestlé's Canadian chocolate bar Coffee Crisp for the duration of {{Trn|Get On My Level 2023}}.<ref>https://twitter.com/iBDWSSBM/status/1682141742223507456</ref> For {{Trn|GENESIS X}}, he was sponsored by 69% Apparel.<ref>https://twitter.com/69PercentSmash/status/1756768697363099729</ref>

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*When he was younger, his Xbox tag was "iBDoiNWorK" which he then shortened to iBDW upon coming into the competitive smash scene, though some have mistaken it for "i Body Deez Weebs." At this point, it likely stands for nothing, and iBDW usually prefers people refer to him by his name, Cody.
*When he was younger, his Xbox tag was "iBDoiNWorK" which he then shortened to iBDW upon coming into the competitive ''Smash'' scene. He confirmed that it stood for nothing, and he usually preferred for people to refer to him by his name, Cody. He officially changed his tag to his real name, Cody Schwab, following {{Trn|GENESIS 9}}.
*Cody Schwab is colorblind, being a protanope (absence of red retinal photoreceptors, making him unable to see red and several shades of other colors).
**Despite having trouble distinguishing between green and red Fox, Cody mains green Fox instead of white or blue (either color would guarantee he can distinguish himself from his opponent in Fox dittos)
*Cody Schwab has defeated all of the [[2019 MPGR]] top 8 in offline sets, defeating {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|aMSa}}, and {{Sm|Hungrybox}} at {{Trn|Smash Summit 8}}, {{Sm|Leffen}} at {{Trn|Shine 2019}}, {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} at {{Trn|Smash Summit 9}}, {{Sm|Axe}} at {{Trn|Smash Summit 11}}, {{Sm|Plup}} at {{Trn|Riptide}}, and {{Sm|Zain}} at {{Trn|Smash Summit 12}}.
*Cody Schwab is the first solo {{SSBM|Fox}} player to be ranked number 1 in the entirety of ''Melee'''s history.

Cody Schwab, formerly known as iBDW, is a Melee smasher from Queens, New York who is currently considered the best Fox player in the world, and was considered the best Melee player in the world in 2023. He originally began competing out of curiosity for how far he could progress in late Spring of 2015, but after having difficulty finding practice in person he began grinding on Anther's Ladder, where he quickly rose to the top of the rankings. His play style makes heavy usage of Fox's up-air for juggles, his tilts and mobility for zoning and approaching, and quick out of shield options to create openings or end stocks. He is also famed for his heavy use of fulljumping to find openings and beat out approaches.

He is currently ranked 2nd on the SSBMRank Summer 2024, and was formerly ranked 1st on the New York City Melee Power Rankings and 3rd on the SoCal Melee Power Rankings.

In pools of Smash Summit 8, Cody Schwab went 0-3 losing to Zain 1-3, Spud 2-3 and Ginger 1-3, earning himself the bottom seed in main bracket, but once in main bracket he would go on to beat S2J 3-0 before losing to Trif 2-3. In losers, Cody Schwab would beat moky 3-2, Mango 3-1, aMSa 3-0, and Hungrybox 3-1, before finally falling to Wizzrobe 1-3, placing 4th.

In September 2021, after almost a year of exceptionally strong performances online, Cody Schwab would claim his first ever major tournament win at Riptide. He defeated Hungrybox 3-1, and then Plup 3-2 and 3-1 in two back to back sets to win the tournament without dropping a set.

Cody Schwab would later win his first supermajor at Smash Summit 12 in December 2021. He notably defeated Hungrybox 3-1, Leffen 3-2, aMSa 3-1, Zain 3-2, and Mango 3-0 to win the tournament without dropping a set, claiming his first set win over Zain in the process and finally defeating every player that was ranked above him on the 2019 MPGR.

After a series of victories rivaling that of Zain in 2023, Zain, Cody Schwab, and Ludwig organized a first-to-10 match between him and Zain, the winner of which would be automatically given 1st on the SSBMRank 2023 rankings. He defeated Zain 10-7, firmly cementing his place as best in the world.

Cody Schwab was sponsored by Eggdog Esports, an endeavor of YouTube video creator zamsire, for the duration of multiple tournaments, including Battle of BC 5, Ludwig Ahgren Championship Series 5, Super Smash Con 2023, and Shine 2023.[1][2][3] In a similar fashion, he was sponsored by Nestlé's Canadian chocolate bar Coffee Crisp for the duration of Get On My Level 2023.[4] For GENESIS X, he was sponsored by 69% Apparel.[5]

After these series of short-term sponsorships, Cody eventually joined fellow New York Fox Aklo on Nouns Esports on March 1st, 2024.[6]

Trivia[edit]

  • When he was younger, his Xbox tag was "iBDoiNWorK" which he then shortened to iBDW upon coming into the competitive Smash scene. He confirmed that it stood for nothing, and he usually preferred for people to refer to him by his name, Cody. He officially changed his tag to his real name, Cody Schwab, following GENESIS 9.
  • Cody Schwab is colorblind, being a protanope (absence of red retinal photoreceptors, making him unable to see red and several shades of other colors).
    • Despite having trouble distinguishing between green and red Fox, Cody mains green Fox instead of white or blue (either color would guarantee he can distinguish himself from his opponent in Fox dittos)
  • Cody Schwab has defeated all of the 2019 MPGR top 8 in offline sets, defeating Mango, aMSa, and Hungrybox at Smash Summit 8, Leffen at Shine 2019, Wizzrobe at Smash Summit 9, Axe at Smash Summit 11, Plup at Riptide, and Zain at Smash Summit 12.
  • Cody Schwab is the first solo Fox player to be ranked number 1 in the entirety of Melee's history.
