Marss is an SSBU Zero Suit Samus player who formerly had Mega Man and Ike secondaries from Cranston, Rhode Island who currently lives in Massachusetts. He is considered as the best SSBU Zero Suit Samus player in the world. Marss is currently ranked 1st on the Massachusetts Ultimate Power Rankings, 2nd on the New England Ultimate Power Rankings, 13th on OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse North America, A Tier on PGRUContenders North America, and 21st on OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse.

In Smash 4, he is considered the second best Zero Suit Samus player in the world, after Nairo. He has taken sets off of top players such as ZeRo, Salem, Nairo, MkLeo, Dabuz, Tweek, Larry Lurr, and Ally. Marss is currently ranked 1st on NER 2017-2018 and 16th on the Panda Global Rankings 100.

Marss is also a very talented doubles player. He usually teams with Light and the pair are considered the best Ultimate doubles team in the world, notably placing 1st at Pound 2019, Low Tier City 7, Super Smash Con 2019, GENESIS 7, and Frostbite 2020. However, he also has lot of success with other partners, such as placing 1st at Frostbite 2019 with Tweek, 1st at Full Bloom 5 with Cosmos, and 2nd at MomoCon 2019 with MkLeo. As a result, he is considered one of the best doubles players in the world.

On March 22nd, 2019, Marss was signed by Panda along with Coney.[1]

Playstyle

Marss is quite known for his very quick and aggressive approach and punish game. For many of the characters that he uses, he noticeably takes their aerials and special moves to create out-of-the-box edgeguards, mix-ups, and setups, or he'll take some of their more situational moves in their toolkit and use them to take out his opponents stocks. When either of these are successfully executed, they bring much hype to the audience witnessing it. Additionally, due to playing Zero Suit Samus, Marss is known to go incredibly deep for edgeguards due to the character's strong recovery. Despite his character's low weight, Marss is known for having incredible SDI, which allows him to stretch out his character's stocks longer and escape KO confirms that lower level Zero Suit Samus players may fall into.

Trivia

  • Marss's habit of rolling his controller's joystick and mashing buttons between matches has led him to be dubbed "The Clacker" by his friends.
  • Marss is known to wear pajama pants at tournaments.
    • During CEO 2017, Marss notably tweeted that if he were to make top 8 at the tournament, he would wear jeans instead of his signature pajama pants. He was able to do so from losers' side, and as promised, he wore jeans, which were highlighted during his entrance.
  • Marss is humorously known for the phrase "ZSS sux" on his Twitter, despite being the best Zero Suit Samus player and one of the best Ultimate players in the world.
  • Marss has stated himself that his reaction time is abysmal and he compensates it by guessing what his opponent is going to do.
    • His in-game tags "tendō" and "satori" are references to that and to the Haikyuu!! character Satori Tendō, who suffers the same problem as Marss.[2]
  • Marss keeps a whiteboard, colloquially referred to as "The Board", where he tallies every single time he JV four-stocks an opponent.
  • Marss is infamous for his flashy playstyle, frequently making risky plays to style on his opponents. Most notably, he often uses Zero Suit Samus's down aerial to meteor smash opponents offstage for a sacrificial KO, despite it being arguably one of her worst moves.
  • Marss's YouTube videos are edited to censor or blur out any mention of Shulk; this is mainly due to Marss jokingly saying that the character "cheats" and is not "family-friendly content".
  • Marss, in his streaming career, has developed many catchphrases based on Smash.
    • Marss sometimes says the phrase "True Combo" when he gets a combo that isn't true.
    • He has two catchphrases exclusive to his Donkey Kong, humorously named "Konkey Dong";
      • His cargo down throw is known as the "Skill Check" if used to stage spike opponents below the stage; if the opponent does not tech, they fail the skill check.
      • Marss's Donkey Kong's up special is referred to as "Big Monkey Swing", most prominently seen to KO opponents on the ground at high percentages.
    • Marss's Incineroar is infamous for its usage of forward tilt, dubbed "Cheeto Fingers".
    • In a situation where Marss wants to attempt to embarrass his opponent or if he is anticipating someone's shield being broken, he often says, "Don't let it be you!"
  • One of Marss's favorite video game series is Fire Emblem, with Path of Radiance being among his favorites in the series.
    • In his Twitter bio, he refers to his girlfriend, Okami, as his "S-Support", referencing the Fire Emblem series' relationship system.
  • Marss is also skilled in tabletop games such as Pandemic.
  • Since Marss's 33rd placement at Riptide, several pictures of him posing in result graphics released by Panda have become memes on Twitter.
    • The meme was extended to Panda tweeting an edit of WaDi's head on Marss's body for placing 33rd at Mainstage 2021.[3]
  • Marss has jokingly called himself the "best smash player in the world" on his YouTube channel and often makes jokes about how he plays the game as a content creator.
  • During Smash Ultimate Summit 4, a side-event was held that was a series of board games. As a joke, Marss threw the toy Penguin from Don't Break the Ice! across the venue and ended up breaking a large TV.
