Greatness, formerly Gnes (which is itself short for Greatness), is a smasher from Missouri City, Texas.

While he was no longer the top player he was in Brawl, he was formerly ranked 8th on the Summer 2016 Houston Smash 4 Power Rankings, before then becoming inactive in Smash 4's later life, with him rarely entering singles after 2016.

In Ultimate, he achieved solid regional-level results in the early metagame, maining Robin. He primarily plays in doubles, though since the end of 2019 he has been largely inactive.
