'''Quincy''' is the top [[Australia]]n ''[[Smash 64]]'' player, his rise to dominance beginning in 2018 after winning both Australian majors that year. He has lost four console tournaments in the country since then (three of which came at the hands of international players), with his lowest placing being 3rd. | |||
Having picked the game up competitively as a 14-year-old during a time where there were (and still are) no active players in his city, | ==History== | ||
Having picked the game up competitively as a 14-year-old during a time where there were (and still are) no active players in his city, Quincy had to rely almost purely on [[Project64k]], [[Training Mode]] and [[Online play]] to improve. He cites {{Sm|wario}}'s performance at [[GENESIS 3]] as inspiration for picking up {{SSB|Pikachu]}}, but plays a variety of characters outside of tournament, and is similarly inspired by the likes of {{Sm|Jouske}}, {{Sm|Isai}}, {{Sm|Kurabba}} and {{Sm|DSC}}. His dedication to his craft is exemplified through sheer time spent playing the game, especially in both 2016 and 2017, going as far as playing during class while in high school. | |||
Quincy's first console tournament appearance came only a year and two months after having began playing competitively, at the renowned [[Battle Arena Melbourne 9]], with the presence of the entire Australia scene and {{Sm|SuPeRbOoMfAn}} adding to the prestige. | |||
Quincy's appearance at [[Super Smash Con 2022]] marked the 5th time (and 4th person total) an Australian has travelled to the US to compete in ''Smash 64'', managing to place 17th in singles with wins over {{Sm|Czar}}, {{Sm|lord narwhal}}, {{Sm|Loto}} and {{Sm|Killer}}. Teaming with lord narwhal in doubles, the two finished 7th with wins over {{Sm|Darkhorse}} & {{Sm|Josh Brody}} and {{Sm|Take}} & {{Sm|Prince}}, and managed to take a game off eventual champions {{Sm|Isai}} & {{Sm|tacos}} in pools. A year later he would return to [[Super Smash Con 2023]] and make Division 1 pools in singles while not advancing, having to face the fiercest of opponents such as {{Sm|KeroKeroppi}} (4th place) and {{Sm|Isai}} (winner). In doubles he would team with {{Sm|Shears}} and place 13th with losses to great teams such as {{Sm|Queso}} & {{Sm|heny935}}, {{Sm|Paco}} & {{Sm|Shihman}}, {{Sm|tacos}} & {{Sm|Alvin}}, and eventual runners-up {{Sm|Take}} & {{Sm|kysk}} | |||
Quincy donated $2500 AUD to the 64 League to help contribute to the growth of the game. Funds for the game have been dispersed internationally, as {{Sm|wario}} confirms his attendance for the upcoming [[Inka Fest 2]] | |||
