Skorpio is a smasher from Minnesota who is currently ranked 18th on the Midwest Smash 4 Power Rankings, 4th on the Minnesota Smash 4 Power Rankings and formerly 3rd on the Minnesota Ultimate Power Rankings. He mains Robin and secondaries Diddy Kong in Smash 4 and mains Robin in Ultimate with Mii Swordfighter as a backup. He regularly teams with his younger brother, Shinjoebi, a Greninja player. They sometimes use the team name "Frog Sage".
At Nexus, a regional in Nebraska, he led Minnesota to victory in crew battles, helping them beat Chicago in grand finals. In singles, he placed 2nd, only dropping sets to Dabuz, beating notable names such as tyroy, JJROCKETS, Nev, and Sinnyboo242. He also placed 2nd in doubles with Shinjoebi.
At Midwest Mayhem 7: Mexico Invasion, he placed 3rd in singles, beating big_mak, tyroy, and Javi in top 8. In addition, he outplaced Ally. His run ended in Losers Finals, where he lost an extremely close set to Zinoto.
Dunga alter ego
Skorpio is known to occasionally enter locals with the tag Dunga, acting as a fictional Diddy Kong player from American Fork, Utah, who is ranked first on a fictional northwestern Utah PR.[1] As Dunga, Skorpio is hotheaded, aggressive and takes losses poorly,[2] popping off when winning sets,[3] while often becoming emotional or refusing a handshake after a loss.[4][5]
