CAOTIC is an American-Australian Peach player from San Diego, California currently residing in Sydney, Australia. His continued contributions to competitive smash across multiple continents continues to fuel the game's tournament scene into the present.
Background
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 one of the most global tournament to date of the 2000s, Zero Challenge 2, 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.

Trivia
- CAOTIC was one of three Bowsers to participate against the unfortunate victims of OC2's "Bowser Challenge" matches which pitted an opponent on a team against MagnuM, Gimpyfish and CAOTIC on Fountain of Dreams.
- In addition to playing Bowser, CAOTIC also forms one half of the team "Peaches on Ice" as Peach with Wobbles.
- CAOTIC's obsession with the terms 'Boozer' and 'Cute' (usually spelt with multiple u's), proliferated in the community. Gimpyfish's video Boozer Cute, was titled after these obsessions.
- Aside from these two words, he has begun using the term "Woxy" as a nickname for both himself and Fox.
