Fly Amanita is an American smasher who uses Ice Climbers in Melee, and is considered to be one of the best Ice Climbers players in the world, along with Wobbles, Nintendude, and ChuDat. Fly Amanita was formerly ranked 10th on the SoCal Melee Power Rankings and is currrently ranked 30th on the 2015 SSBMRank.
At EVO 2014, Fly Amanita managed to place 7th in Melee singles. He defeated Ice 2-1 and Nintendude 2-0 in the winners' quarters pool before losing to Armada 0-2, and then defeated Chillin 2-0 in the losers' bracket to make into the top 8 bracket from losers'. In losers' top 8, he brought PPMD down to the last stock of game 3, but eventually lost 1-2. Fly Amanita's best placing ever was at Press Start placing 2nd losing 6-0 to Mango.
Fly Amanita is also a former member of the Project M Backroom, having assisted in the new redesign of the Ice Climbers. Despite this, he does not use the Ice Climbers in Project M tournaments, but rather uses King Dedede instead.

Playstyle
Fly Amanita has been well known to dislike wobbling. Instead he uses technical down throw setups and combos. His sopo is also known to be one of the best in the world, famously clutching out a win against Silent Wolf at Kings of Cali 3. He is also known for his prowess in the Marth matchup only losing to Ken, Azen, PewPewU, and The Moon.
