CAOTIC is an American-Australian Peach player from San Diego, California currently residing in Eindhoven, Netherlands. His continuous contributions to competitive Smash across multiple continents fuels the game's tournament scene into the present.
BackgroundEdit
CAOTIC hosted triweekly Smash tournaments in San Diego throughout 2006 and would ultimately become an influential personality in the overall Smash scene in southern California. He eventually became a panelist to develop the SoCal Power Rankings list which has since spawned many flattering imitations in various regions in the world.
He was instrumental in the conduction of Zero Challenge 2, one of the most global tournaments to date, and in the production and distribution of the accompanying DVD.
CAOTIC is recognized as a developer of Australia's Smash Bros. communities and has made large and notable contributions to it. He was ranked 13th on the SoCal Power Rankings before he moved to Australia.
