Marss is an SSBU Zero Suit Samus player with strong Mega Man, Captain Falcon, and Snake secondaries from Cranston, Rhode Island who currently lives in Massachusetts. He is considered as the best SSBU Zero Suit Samus player, one of the best Mega Man and Captain Falcon players in the world, and was previously one of the best Ike players in the world prior to dropping the character. Marss is currently ranked 1st on both the New England Ultimate Power Rankings and the Massachusetts Smash Ultimate Power Rankings, as well as 5th on the Fall 2019 PGRU.

In Smash 4, he is considered the second best Zero Suit Samus player in the world, after Nairo. He has taken sets off of top players such as ZeRo, Salem, Nairo, MkLeo, Dabuz, Tweek, Larry Lurr, VoiD, tamim, Cosmos, and Ally. Marss is currently ranked 2nd on the New England Smash 4 Power Rankings and 16th on the Panda Global Rankings 100.

Marss is also a very talented doubles player. He usually teams with Light and the pair are considered one of the best doubles teams in the world, notably placing 1st at Pound 2019, Low Tier City 7, and Super Smash Con 2019. However, he also has lot of success with other partners, such as placing 1st at Frostbite 2019 with Tweek, 1st at Full Bloom 5 with Cosmos, and 2nd at MomoCon 2019 with Mkleo. As a result, he is considered one of the best doubles players in the world.

On March 22nd, 2019, Marss was signed by Panda Global.[1]

Playstyle

Marss is quite known for his very quick and aggressive approach and punish game. For many of the characters that he uses, he noticeably takes their aerials and special moves to create out-of-the-box edgeguards, mix-ups, and setups, or he'll take some of their more situational moves in their toolkit and use them to take out his opponents stocks. When either of these are successfully executed will bring much hype to the audience witnessing it.

Trivia

  • Marss' habit of rolling his controller's joystick and mashing buttons between matches has led him to be dubbed "The Clacker" by his friends.
  • Marss is known to wear pajama pants at tournaments.
    • During CEO 2017, Marss notably tweeted that if he were to make top 8 at the tournament, he would wear jeans instead of his signature pajama pants. He was able to do so from losers' side, and as promised, he wore jeans, which were highlighted during his entrance.
  • Marss is humorously known for the phrase "ZSS sux" on his Twitter, despite being one of the most successful Ultimate players.
