An emotional iStudying during his set with ESAM at B.E.A.S.T. 6.

iStudying is a professional Dutch smasher who plays Greninja in both Ultimate and Smash 4. In Ultimate, he was considered one of the best Greninja players in Europe, along with Tarik, and has defeated players such as Mr.R, Tilde, Stroder, quiK, NaetorU and eMass. He is currently ranked 6th on the 2022 Dutch Ultimate Power Rankings, and 27th on both the OrionRank 2022 Europe; he was also formerly ranked 15th on the European Smash Rankings and 27th on the PGRU v3 EU.

He is widely considered to be one of the best Smash 4 Greninja mains in the world and a great Diddy Kong player in Brawl. At B.E.A.S.T 6, he made a very long run through losers bracket after losing to Light 1-2, while also defeating top American players MVD 3-1 in losers semis and ESAM 3-2 in losers finals consecutively, proving both his global skill as a player and Greninja's potential as a fighter, having defeated characters unanimously considered superior to Greninja. He also upset Ally at UGC Smash Open and Rich Brown at Syndicate 2016.

iStudying is currently ranked 3rd on the Dutch Smash 4 Power Rankings, 10th on the European Smash 4 Power Rankings and was formerly ranked 42nd on the Panda Global Rankings v1.
