Trivia
- Dabuz can sometimes be seen with a Luma plushie at tournaments that he carries around for good luck and to steel his nerves. [1]
- Dabuz is often considered to be Hungrybox's equivalent in Smash 4, due to his overly defensive playstyle, his all-around nice personality, and with both sporting notable beards.
- As of Spring 2016, Dabuz is known to bring a laptop full of notes on top players to setups which he consults before sets and between games. [2]
- Dabuz commonly uses tags with motivating words of advice such as "CONCENTRATE" and "FOCUS!" in order to keep himself composed in tournament matches.
