Omni (formerly known as InfernoOmni) is a Sheik player from Maryland. Originally a member of Team Arlington, Omni has since joined local crew Team Ben.

Omni made his debut to the Smash scene at MLG DC 2005, where he allegedly stepped on Ken's fingers in an effort to support an evil conspiracy plot. He has been a part of the MD/VA Smash scene since then, steadily getting better.

He began to take heavy beatings from PXTalon and RickR, slowly learning what it takes to compete in advance play. He then moved up to harder opponents such as Aho, Fonz, and Neo around the same time he was introduced to TA, otherwise known as Team Arlington. Omni joined TA late 2005 where he found his skill level increasing dramatically with so many high level players to compete with. In 2007 he continued training hard, and began pulling down some serious wins. In March of 2007, he attended his first national tournament where he could put his recent training to use, and he placed 9th out of well over 100 participants. He also is a student at the University of Maryland and works in real estate.

Omni is considered to have a very unique Fox. His solid tech game along with his above-par mindgames has allowed it to receive names such as "awkward" or "homosexually nuanced". Nevertheless, his style has a tendency of catching players off-guard. Additionally, Omni is known for his exceptional performances in crew battles, taking off 10 stock on two different occasions.

In Brawl, Omni mains Meta Knight, and is considered to be one of the best Meta Knight players in MD/VA. He is also known for the creation of the Omnigay, which is a technique that allows Meta Knight to kill Snake at any percent with his own grenade by grabbing Snake after he picks up his grenade and using up throw. The up throw takes both Snake and Meta Knight over the upper blast line, but Meta Knight will not be KO'ed if he has a higher port number than Snake.
