| '''gav''', formerly known as '''Nova''', is an American [[smasher]]. He began playing on Kaillera in 2009 when he was completely new to the game, but over time he learned and improved greatly. He is not a very technical player but makes up for it with his good spacing and the ability to read his opponent well. He is currently ranked 2nd on the [[Georgia Power Rankings]]. In 2018 at console tournaments he has taken sets from {{Sm|Birra}} and {{Sm|B33F}} (who would go on to be ranked 56th in the [[2018 64 League Rankings]]) and the controversial {{Sm|Studstill}}, among others.

Was ranked 3rd on the '''Smashladder''' Smash 64 New Years Day Season(January 1, 2015 - January 31, 2016) with a record of 36-3.
