Unknown522 is a Canadian smasher and Fox main who was formerly ranked 1st on the Ontario Power Rankings and is widely considered one of the country's best Fox players. Unknown522 was also ranked as the world's 15th best smasher on the 2013 SSBM Player Rankings. However, Unknown522 has led a controversial career as a Smasher; he was banned from Melee tournaments in Canada for one year starting in November 2013, primarily due to his sometimes violent conduct at tournaments. He has also been banned from the Apex tournament series starting with Apex 2013, following an incident where he placed American smasher Inui in a choke-hold in response to his constant heckling at NEC 13. Additionally, Unknown522 caused further controversy with American smasher Mew2King in the semi-finals for Revival of Melee 5, in relation to splitting and accused bracket manipulation. In March 2015, it was decided that he would once again be able to participate in events in Ontario.
