| '''LD''', also known as '''Fox''' and '''Blue Suit''' depending on the circumstances (previously '''Rainshifter'''), is a top level ''[[Smash 64]]'' solo {{SSB|Fox}} [[main]] and a member of [[TR3G]]. He notably plays using a Xbox 360 controller, but has also recently entered [[Smash @ Xanadu]] weeklies playing with the regular Nintendo 64 controller, where he usually places within the top 3 with {{sm|Nintendude}} and {{sm|Shears}} or {{sm|Bark Sanchez}}.
| |
| | |
| He is known for his intelligent and unique playstyle involving patience, use of [[Blaster|Fox's Laser]], as well as an unforgiving [[Punish|punish game]] and [[Edgeguard|edge game]], and has become notorious for being one of the best Fox players while not being particularly technical. He, along with [[The Z]] and a few others have also proven that Fox remains a strongly viable tournament character following the banning of [[Hyrule Castle]].
| |
| | |
| He has entered singles at [[Zenith 2014]], where he placed 9th after losing to The Z 0-2 and {{sm|Killer}} 1-2.
| |
| | |
| He more recently tied for 5th with {{sm|KeroKeroppi}} at the largest ever North American SSB64 tournament [[Apex 2015]] and is now considered to be one of the top, if not the absolute best Fox user in the United States (outside of Isai) and one of the best Foxes in the world.
