Trivia
GimR was commonly mistaken to operate GRsmash 's YouTube channel, though this was declared false by GRSmash.[3]
GimR is victim of a meme, where he is blamed for killing Project M .
GimR is associated with the phrase and meme "The GimZ always WinZ", due to his upsets among certain players, such as Silent Wolf at Smash the Record 2015 .
