No Skillz was a Brawl Marth player, who regularly competed in Upstate New York from 2012 to the demise of the region's Brawl scene. He was one of the region's best players during the twilight of the Brawl era, who, aside from his first few tournaments, consistently placed in the money in most of Upstate New York's Brawl tournaments. While No Skillz would have assuredly eventually made the Upstate New York Brawl Power Rankings, he never did as the scene would never have a formal power ranking again after its final iteration in April 2012, the point right before he would enter his prime. He additionally was a heavy wifi player on AllisBrawl, where lower leveled Marth players such as Striker_X, Shin, and Beekay looked up to him, with No Skillz often coaching them.

Upon the release of Smash 4 and the demise of Brawl's competitive scene, No Skillz's competitive activity dived. He entered a few local Smash 4 tournaments in the first few months of the game's life with some minor success, including once winning one of Pastime Legends' Smash 4 weeklies. But due to having no Wii U of his own while finding the 3DS version inadequate for practice, and not adapting well to the changes Smash 4 brought (such as Marth being heavily nerfed compared to his Brawl self in the earlier versions of the game), No Skillz stopped playing Smash; he hasn't been involved with the competitive Smash community in any sort of known capacity since early 2015.
