Dabuz is an Olimar main from Nesconset, New York and is generally considered to be the best Olimar player in North America. He was the AllisBrawl 2009 spring ladder champion, defeating Ally to take the top spot. At the LSC Championships in Austin, Texas, he defeated Snake main UltimateRazer in a best of 7 $100 money match. He didn't start attending tournaments frequently offline until 2010 but consistently placed high, but was a dominant player on wifi, winning many online tournaments, AllisBrawl playoffs, and Gamebattles playoffs. His offline placings throughout Brawl's lifespan aren't documented well but he was considered the best player in the NY/NJ region for one power rankings season and generally ranked high on their power rankings. He retired from brawl in mid 2012, only attending tournaments very rarely in 2013. He is considered the 20th ranked Brawl player of all time according to the clash tournaments top 100 SSBB rank. He is also considered to be one of the best Smash 4 players, and widely considered to be the best Rosalina & Luma main in the world, taking first place at many tournaments in the Tristate Area and winning the Nintendo of America National Open Tournament, and has also placed high in major tournaments, including placing 2nd at Apex 2015, 3rd at CEO 2015, and 5th at EVO 2015. After quitting Brawl, he had a period of dominance in "Playstation All Stars Battle Royale", a Playstation 3 and PSP Vita game that was similar to Smash Bros. He was considered the undisputed best player of that game with his Evil Cole and Fat Princess (also crowned the "Father of All Stars"), winning almost every online tournament and offline tournament he entered, quitting after winning the MLG online ladder playoffs about a year after the game's initial release. Dabuz also won the Nintendo National Kid Icarus 3ds Championship tournament in 2012.

Dabuz is currently ranked 1st on the Tristate Smash 4 Power Rankings and was formerly ranked 6th on the Tristate Brawl Power Rankings.
