Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}} player who is considered the best Banjo & Kazooie player of all-time and is currently ranked 54th on the [[LumiRank 2023]]. Initially known as a successful player in Japan's online scene, he broke out in the offline scene with his 9th-place finish at the Golden Week supermajor {{Trn|Maesuma TOP 12}} with wins over {{Sm|MuteAce}}, {{Sm|Ron}}, and {{Sm|Umeki}}. His results would continue to improve throughout 2023, culminating in his run at {{Trn|Maesuma TOP 14}} where he became the first and only solo-Banjo & Kazooie player to place top 8 at a major. In 2024 he found greater recognition internationally thanks to his 5th-place run at {{Trn|Battle of BC 6}} where he dominantly 3-0d {{Sm|MkLeo}}, as well as his run at {{Trn|Kagaribi 12}} where he upset {{Sm|Sparg0}}. These performances led many to consider Toriguri one of the best "mid-tier heroes" in ''Ultimate'' and sparked discussion over Banjo & Kazooie's true potential. | ||
