AbsentPage is a smasher who is well known for being one of the quickest Melee and Project M players to make his State Power Ranking in the United States. AbsentPage is also one of the best Fox/Sheik players in the Midwest, and is also the top smasher in Minnesota. He holds wins over 8 of the top-100 ranked players from 2016: Phil, Trulliam, Drephen, Lovage, Eddy Mexico, Kels, lloD and KJH. AbsentPage also had close sets against Kage (1-2) at The Big House 6, MacD (1-3) at UGC, Amsah (1-2) at GENESIS 4, and n0ne (1-3) at Smash 'N' Splash 3.
His notable placements include 17th at Smash 'N' Splash 2, 3rd at Kings of the North V, 25th at UGC Smash Open, 65th at GENESIS 4, 17th at Smash 'N' Splash 3, and 25th at EVO 2017 - where he outplaced 20+ top-100 players. AbsentPage has also been extremely dominant in his home state of Minnesota, winning 38 tournaments in 2017 alone (and 97 tournament wins in his career).
Having begun playing competitively in August of 2014, he first appeared on the Minnesota Power Rankings in April of 2015 (ranked 6th) - only 8 months after attending his first tournament. AbsentPage earned the #1 rank almost exactly a year later (becoming the first player to take the top spot from Slayer in over two years), and has been ranked as the best smasher in Minnesota for the last 4 'seasons'. He has said that he was inspired by Mew2king, Hax and Dark.
As of the June 9th, 2017 Minnesota Melee Power Rankings, he is ranked 1st. He is also on the Minnesota Power Rankings for Project M, first appearing at #8 in August of 2015, and briefly reached the #1 rank. As of the July 21st, 2017 Minnesota Power Rankings, he is ranked 2nd. Has has since quit Project M to focus on Melee. Now, he enters very rarely, and will likely miss the next iteration of the Minnesota Project M Power Rankings due to inactivity.
AbsentPage was mentioned in an article by Peek&Co as one of the top 3 smashers from the 'doc kid' generation to look out for, along with Captain Faceroll (who also recognized AbsentPage) and Zain in late 2016. Darkatma said that he was "someone to watch out for." This was also echoed by Hungrybox, who said that AbsentPage was "a player who really impressed him at UGC." Tafokints stated that he "wouldn't be surprised if by 2017 he makes the SSBM rank top 100", and that he had "one of the best under the radar runs" after an impressive 25th place finish at EVO 2017. The Moon and D1 consider him a "really strong player." He was mentioned on episode #15 of The Reads, where Phil praised him and said that he was "like Syrox, but less known." AbsentPage was mentioned as one of the players to look out for at Shine 2017.
He is currently ranked in the Top 100 by SmashBoards (68th) and Smash.gg (93rd) - being ranked in the top 100 since May 2017.
He was signed by Panda Gaming in 2015. On July 21st, 2017, he left Panda Gaming.
