Yei (pronounced "Jay") is a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Meta Knight player from Costa Rica with a variety of secondaries, most prominently Palutena. He has defeated players such as Maister, Mr E, Meme, Joker, Chag, Cloudy, Javi, and Nanon. He is currently ranked 2nd on Costa Rican Power Rankings, 54th on the OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse North America, 90th on the OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse, and is considered the best player in Central America.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Yei was known to have mastery over multiple characters, but mainly played Lucina and Marth. His breakout tournament was at Smash Factor 7, where he defeated Rox and Cloudy before losing to ANTi in a close game 5 set, placing 9th.

Playstyle

Yei is a versatile player, able to switch playstyles quickly when necessary. His most consistent approach, however, is to maintain an aggressive, yet calculated and patient neutral game. From his aggression, he will go for deep edgeguards, juggles, and early kills.

For Palutena, he pairs a strong neutral and consistent punish game, and often uses Palutena's tools to go for quick kills or capitalize as much as he can. For Meta Knight, he plays for combos, spacing, and quick edgeguarding, while also using Meta Knight’s jumps to make his landings difficult to punish. He is highly proficient in Meta Knight's ladder combo, able to consistently ladder and finish off his opponents even at higher percents when the combo is DI-prone and much harder to complete.
