Tea (てぃー, Tea) is a Japanese Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Pac-Man player with a Kazuya secondary who is considered to be the best Pac-Man player in the world and one of the most consistent players in Japan alongside ProtoBanham, Zackray and Shuton. He is currently ranked 3rd on OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse Japan, 6th on both the OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse and Experimental Smash Player Rankings, and 12th on the Fall 2019 PGRU; he was also ranked 5th on the discontinued Japan Player Rankings.
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, he is considered to be one of the best Pac-Man players in the world along with Sinji. He is mostly known in Japan for his mastery of Pac-Man's trapping abilities, which led him to getting a 9th place at Sumabato Niconico Qualifier. Tea has taken sets off of players such as KEN, Abadango, Kameme, Elegant, falln, Raito, Earth, and Rizeasu. He is currently ranked 21st on the JAPAN Smash 4 Power Rankings.
On February 21st, 2020, both Tea and Kome were signed by SUSANOO GAMING8.[1] On July 1st, 2021, SUSANOO GAMING 8 and KURENAI GAMING were merged to form the gaming team GUREN (now known as Revo). [2]
Playstyle
Tea is a Pac-Man player who excels at combo games and usage of various Bonus Fruit items. He prefers to use Galaxian in lower percentages and Bell in mid or high percentages, using them as a kill confirm in many situations. Off-stage, Tea utilizes Pac-Man's impressive recovery options to recover from unexpected places. Another hallmark of Tea's playstyle is that he often utilizes Fire Hydrant to block opponent's movements, charge Bonus Fruit and edgeguard opponents.
However, Tea struggles when he deals with players with long-ranged attacks, due to the fact that he can't land his signature kill confirm with his Bell. This is evident in matches between MkLeo, Sparg0 and KEN when latter switched his character to Sephiroth.
