Ryo is an American smasher from the Atlantic South region of Gainesville, Florida who mains Ike in Brawl and Ike, Corrin, and Roy in Smash 4.

In Brawl, he is considered to be the best Ike player in the United States and possibly the world (as San had became inactive in the community), though this has yet to be solidly proven on an international scale. Originally a Melee Roy main, Ryo moved from to Brawl when the game came out and took up Ike when he learned that Roy was not on the roster. He is known for his performance at WHOBO 4; he placed 5th and defeated top players such as UltimateRazer, TheReflexWonder, and Shaky during his run in bracket. With his doubles partner, True Blue, he also took a game off Ally and Trela, the winning doubles team. Although they later lost the set, the set has become well-known in the community. He was formerly ranked 3rd on the Florida Brawl Power Rankings.

In SSB4, he is considered to be the best Ike player in the world, and one of the best Corrin and Roy players. He also occasionally uses other characters in local tournaments such as Palutena and Lucina. He is mostly known for his performance at The Big House 5 (the 7th largest SSB4 tournament of all time), where he placed 17th along with fellow Ike players San and Ryuga, and at MLG World Finals 2015, where he placed 7th. At Super Smash Con 2016, Ryo demonstrated his prowess with his former main in Melee, Roy by almost defeating Abadango and forcing him to counter-pick Rosalina & Luma before being eliminated at 9th. He is currently ranked 1st on the North Florida Smash 4 Power Rankings, right below Mew2King, who holds the 0 spot.
