Nyani is an American smasher from New Jersey. While she began competitive play in the early days of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, she began to improve most noticeably in the 3.02 release of Project M.
Background
Nyani began playing Smash competitive at 15, upon the release of Brawl, maining Mario. She primarily played with Inui, as they attended the same college, and attended Montage's series of local tournaments. Due to her favorite character having generally poor matchups, and the pressure of competing with the top-level players that New Jersey was home to at the time, she grew frustrated with the game and retired for a few years.
In early 2014, Nyani reappeared in Project M. At this time she met with Chibo and began training with him. She eventually became a staffer, and then a member of Chibo's team, "CLASH Tournaments." She has since become a regular feature of the CLASH Tournaments stream and a respectable Mario main in Super Smash Bros for Nintendo 3DS.
