Leo is a 15-year old Meta Knight main from Mexico. He burst onto the Smash scene when he won Smash Factor 4, Mexico's largest Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament ever, defeating Mr. R in grand finals 3-1, 2-stocking him in each game he won. Later in the year, at another Mexican tournament, True Combo, Leo defeated Vinnie in grand finals, further proving his capabilities as a player and creating more interest in the Mexican Smash scene as a whole. Due to his aggressive style and heavy punish game with Meta Knight and proving that his skills could potentially surpass those of top players at a very young age, some have compared him to Nairo's early Super Smash Bros. Brawl career, and he is also considered to be one of the best Smash 4 Meta Knight mains in the world, along with Tyrant, Ito and Abadango. He arguably popularized Meta Knight, a character having been seen as mediocre after his nerfs from Brawl, as many top players such as Abadango, Nairo and Mr. R have since used him against other top players. Leo is currently ranked 1st on the Mexican Smash 4 Power Rankings.
