Trivia
- Ludwig won a best of 1, $100 Money Match against Zain at Smash Summit 8, in which Zain started the game with 1 stock to Ludwig's 4.
- Ludwig has beaten Chillin's Mario at Smash the Record 2017 as HypedForSlicedBread, entering Top 8 on Winner's Side. This led to a First to 5 $100 Money Match at Mainstage. Chillindude barely won the money match.

- It's often joked that Ludwig's notoriety came from his friendship with Slime, leading to him sometimes being humorously referred to as "Slime's friend" instead of his name.
