King Funk is a smasher, tournament organizer and commentator currently residing in Copenhagen, Denmark, who is a member of the livestreaming group Salty Playground and the manager of the Karnage eSports Melee division. Formerly a SSB64 and Brawl player, Julius now exclusively plays Melee as well as a variety of other fighting game titles such as Ultra Street Fighter IV, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and The King of Fighters XIII.
King Funk started out with Brawl in Portugal in 2008, where he co-founded the competitive scene with Flayl and hosted the country's first few tournaments. In 2010, he moved to Denmark for his studies and quickly transitioned from Brawl to Melee as most players in Scandinavia favored the latter as their game of choice. Julius was also for a long time one of Europe's best SSB64 players until he quit the game in late 2012 to focus on other fighting games.
King Funk frequently commentates at European events and hosts local and regional tournaments (mostly the "Hive" and the "King Funk's Castle" series).
