He has also eliminated Westballz at The Big House 7 and defeated Axe at Full Bloom 4. After his breakout performances in 2017, Ginger became an active Twitch streamer and is known for playing high level Anther's Ladder and later Project Slippi Ranked matches and for his catchphrase "zoinks" on stream. He has also been nicknamed the "SFAT of Falco" due to his extremely orthodox play style.

Trivia[edit]
- On September 10th, 2021, a tweet from sponsor Luminosity (which advertised his "Ginger's Smurf Show" netplay series) depicted a Fortnite-esque render of Ginger alongside a Navy sponsorship.[6] The nature of the sponsorship, combined with the "WarHero" pose, have led to Ginger becoming the basis of a running gag depicting him as a war veteran.
