'''Elegant''' is a Smasher from Irvine, California who is currently residing in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is regarded as one of the most well-known [[Luigi]] players in competitive play, having used the character to great success in both {{forwiiu}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. | |||
Elegant is best known for his tournament performances in ''Smash 4'', where he was widely regarded the best and most successful {{SSB4|Luigi}} player of all-time, as well as one of the best players in [[SoCal]]. In addition to being the only Luigi player ranked on multiple [[PGR]] rankings, peaking at 11th on the [[PGR v4]] and ranking 27th on the [[PGR 100|all-time ranking]], Elegant's performance at {{Trn|GameTyrant Expo 2017}} marked the closest a Luigi player came to winning a ''Smash 4'' major, as he was only one game from winning Grand Finals reset. Elegant's performances improved Luigi's reputation in competitive play, leading the character to rise greatly between the third and fourth tier lists. In addition to singles, Elegant is also proficient in doubles: he was initially {{Sm|Aarvark}}'s teammate, with the team being considered one of the best doubles teams in the world, however towards the end of ''Smash 4'' he began to frequently team with other players to great success, winning {{Trn|Get On My Level 2018}} with {{Sm|SuperGirlKels}}, {{Trn|2GG: Hyrule Saga}} with {{Sm|Stroder}}, {{Trn|Low Tier City 6}} with {{Sm|Samsora}}, and {{Trn|The Big House 8}} with {{Sm|Scend}}. | |||
Elegant | Elegant is also known for his {{SSBU|Luigi}} in ''Ultimate'', where despite initial underperformances, he established himself as the best Luigi player from 2019 to 2022, becoming Luigi's primary top-level representative during this time. At his peak, he was ranked 14th on the [[OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse]] and had several top 8 major finishes, including placing 3rd at {{Trn|Mainstage 2021}}, the best Luigi major performance at that time. He has since left competitive play due to controversies and his rankings and results have been overshadowed by {{Sm|Raru}}, however he remains the second-best ''Ultimate'' Luigi player of all-time. | ||
==Playstyle== | |||
Elegant's playstyle remains mostly the same from ''[[SSB4]]'' to ''[[SSBU]]'', and is highly characterized through his potent punish game, his quick movement, and unpredictable choices in neutral. He has a mastery of {{SSBU|Luigi}}'s combos and recovery, making use of his powerful grab and combo game, and offsetting the character's exploitable recovery by recovering in different and unusual ways. Due to the amount of combo starters Luigi has, Elegant uses these to frame trap and [[DI]] mixup his opponents, doing massive amounts of damage and potentially pulling a [[zero-to-death combo]]. | |||
Elegant was also well known for his ability to [[button mash]] efficiently. This skill was especially evident in his ability to [[spike]] opponents with [[Luigi Cyclone]] in ''SSB4'', which is only possible if the player mashes enough to make Luigi rise and prevent the attack's final [[hitbox]] from connecting. As Elegant was proficient as this technique, his [[edge guarding]] ability was on point, allowing him to [[gimp]] players at low percentages and make comebacks off of a single neutral win. Additionally, he would make great use of Luigi Cyclone to mix up his recovery, as his proficiency in mashing allowed him to gain significant height from the move. Although these effects were removed in ''Ultimate'', effectively worsening the move by taking out its ability to gimp and removing its recovery potential, Elegant makes use of Luigi Cyclone's newly added trait of having [[invincibility]] frames within the startup of the move to combo break his opponents, kill off the top of the stage, brute force his way through an opponent, or cover the ledge. Elegant also makes use of Luigi's newly added [[grab aerial|tether]] to create [[space]] between him and his opponent, start combos, and edgeguard. | |||
Elegant is also known for his upper body shake he does before sets, which he has dubbed the, "Elegant Shake" which he claims gets rid of nerves he may have before a set. | |||

==Drunken behavior controversy== | |||
On September 5th, 2022, Shannon, a former friend of Elegant, posted a TwitLonger discussing Elegant's poor behavior when drunk. In the TwitLonger, she noted how there were two incidents where Elegant's drunken behavior had affected her. The first incident was at {{Trn|Collision 2022}}, where both of them were drunk and had sex, a moment which despite haunting her, she decided to try and let go, as she believed she had handled the incident irresponsibly. The second incident took place after {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2022}}, where she was slightly intoxicated but Elegant was inebriated. Despite Shannon telling Elegant that due to what had happened at Collision 2022 his drunken behavior made her feel uncomfortable, Elegant still preceded to hang around her, hug her, and even asked her to stay at his place, as if he was oblivious to her complaints, leading Shannon to lose all trust in him.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://pastebin.com/d79303xZ|title=Shannon's TwitLonger, archived into Pastebin}}</ref> During the TwitLonger and in subsequent Tweets, she highlighted that her purpose of posting the TwitLonger was not to "cancel" Elegant, but to give him a wake-up call to a problem that he has.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/_Shannoniganz/status/1566960293607088130|title=Shannon on her TwitLonger's purpose}}</ref> | |||
Elegant initially wrote two TwitLongers detailing his side of his story. He conceded that the two were drunk and had sex during Collision 2022 but was adamant that both parties had consented, a point that Shannon was assuming as well.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/_Shannoniganz/status/1566950780602662914|title=Shannon on consenting}}</ref> He also thought that he and Shannon were fine after the situation as they seemingly didn't show ill-will towards each other. On the second incident, although he admitted he didn't remember what took place, he conceded that he had a drinking problem but believed he had gotten better about it.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://pastebin.com/QM6MuP8Z|title=Elegant's TwitLongers, archived into Pastebin}}</ref> Elegant eventually deleted both TwitLonger in order to write a more detailed one, which in addition to what was explained before, he also added how the two did talk about the first incident following the end of Collision 2022, which led Elegant to believe the two had talked everything through, and that despite being surprised at Shannon unfriending him, he gave her space by not interacting with her prior to the second incident.

Elegant is a Smasher from Irvine, California who is currently residing in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is regarded as one of the most well-known Luigi players in competitive play, having used the character to great success in both Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Elegant is best known for his tournament performances in Smash 4, where he was widely regarded the best and most successful Luigi player of all-time, as well as one of the best players in SoCal. In addition to being the only Luigi player ranked on multiple PGR rankings, peaking at 11th on the PGR v4 and ranking 27th on the all-time ranking, Elegant's performance at GameTyrant Expo 2017 marked the closest a Luigi player came to winning a Smash 4 major, as he was only one game from winning Grand Finals reset. Elegant's performances improved Luigi's reputation in competitive play, leading the character to rise greatly between the third and fourth tier lists. In addition to singles, Elegant is also proficient in doubles: he was initially Aarvark's teammate, with the team being considered one of the best doubles teams in the world, however towards the end of Smash 4 he began to frequently team with other players to great success, winning Get On My Level 2018 with SuperGirlKels, 2GG: Hyrule Saga with Stroder, Low Tier City 6 with Samsora, and The Big House 8 with Scend.
Elegant is also known for his Luigi in Ultimate, where despite initial underperformances, he established himself as the best Luigi player from 2019 to 2022, becoming Luigi's primary top-level representative during this time. At his peak, he was ranked 14th on the OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse and had several top 8 major finishes, including placing 3rd at Mainstage 2021, the best Luigi major performance at that time. He has since left competitive play due to controversies and his rankings and results have been overshadowed by Raru, however he remains the second-best Ultimate Luigi player of all-time.
Playstyle[edit]
Elegant's playstyle remains mostly the same from SSB4 to SSBU, and is highly characterized through his potent punish game, his quick movement, and unpredictable choices in neutral. He has a mastery of Luigi's combos and recovery, making use of his powerful grab and combo game, and offsetting the character's exploitable recovery by recovering in different and unusual ways. Due to the amount of combo starters Luigi has, Elegant uses these to frame trap and DI mixup his opponents, doing massive amounts of damage and potentially pulling a zero-to-death combo.
Elegant was also well known for his ability to button mash efficiently. This skill was especially evident in his ability to spike opponents with Luigi Cyclone in SSB4, which is only possible if the player mashes enough to make Luigi rise and prevent the attack's final hitbox from connecting. As Elegant was proficient as this technique, his edge guarding ability was on point, allowing him to gimp players at low percentages and make comebacks off of a single neutral win. Additionally, he would make great use of Luigi Cyclone to mix up his recovery, as his proficiency in mashing allowed him to gain significant height from the move. Although these effects were removed in Ultimate, effectively worsening the move by taking out its ability to gimp and removing its recovery potential, Elegant makes use of Luigi Cyclone's newly added trait of having invincibility frames within the startup of the move to combo break his opponents, kill off the top of the stage, brute force his way through an opponent, or cover the ledge. Elegant also makes use of Luigi's newly added tether to create space between him and his opponent, start combos, and edgeguard.
Elegant is also known for his upper body shake he does before sets, which he has dubbed the, "Elegant Shake" which he claims gets rid of nerves he may have before a set.

Drunken behavior controversy[edit]
On September 5th, 2022, Shannon, a former friend of Elegant, posted a TwitLonger discussing Elegant's poor behavior when drunk. In the TwitLonger, she noted how there were two incidents where Elegant's drunken behavior had affected her. The first incident was at Collision 2022, where both of them were drunk and had sex, a moment which despite haunting her, she decided to try and let go, as she believed she had handled the incident irresponsibly. The second incident took place after Super Smash Con 2022, where she was slightly intoxicated but Elegant was inebriated. Despite Shannon telling Elegant that due to what had happened at Collision 2022 his drunken behavior made her feel uncomfortable, Elegant still preceded to hang around her, hug her, and even asked her to stay at his place, as if he was oblivious to her complaints, leading Shannon to lose all trust in him.[1] During the TwitLonger and in subsequent Tweets, she highlighted that her purpose of posting the TwitLonger was not to "cancel" Elegant, but to give him a wake-up call to a problem that he has.[2]
Elegant initially wrote two TwitLongers detailing his side of his story. He conceded that the two were drunk and had sex during Collision 2022 but was adamant that both parties had consented, a point that Shannon was assuming as well.[3] He also thought that he and Shannon were fine after the situation as they seemingly didn't show ill-will towards each other. On the second incident, although he admitted he didn't remember what took place, he conceded that he had a drinking problem but believed he had gotten better about it.[4] Elegant eventually deleted both TwitLonger in order to write a more detailed one, which in addition to what was explained before, he also added how the two did talk about the first incident following the end of Collision 2022, which led Elegant to believe the two had talked everything through, and that despite being surprised at Shannon unfriending him, he gave her space by not interacting with her prior to the second incident. He concluded the new TwitLonger by agreeing that he should be held accountable for his actions and that he would no longer drink after Smash tournaments.[5]
Further accusations have since been levied against Elegant from several others, including Elegant's ex-girlfriend.[6][7][8] Despite taking place in different tournaments, all the TwitLongers highlighted Elegant's behavior after becoming drunk and dismissed his claim that he had been working on his behavior.
In response to his actions, Elegant would be banned indefinitely from all events in multiple regions including, but not limited to SoCal,[9] Texas,[10] and Las Vegas, Nevada.[11]
