LD, also known as Fox and Blue Suit depending on the circumstances (previously Rainshifter), is a top level Smash 64 solo 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, often taking first place over many Baltimore regulars such as Nintendude, Shears and Bark Sanchez.
He is known for his intelligent and unique playstyle involving patience, use of Fox's Laser, as well as an unforgiving punish game and edge game, and has become notorious for being one of the best Fox players while not being particularly technical. He is very comparatively hard to edgeguard compared to most Foxes, due to his mixups with aerials and various Up B angles. While he is strong at most matchups, his mastery of the Pikachu matchup is most well known of; he has taken sets off some of the best Pikachu players in the world such as Dext3r from Mexico and Banze from Brazil.
Following his top 8 finish at Apex 2015 and Super Smash Con, LD is considered to be one of the very best Fox players in North America along with The Z.
