Marss is an SSBU Zero Suit Samus player with strong Mega Man, Snake, Ike, and Captain Falcon secondaries from Cranston, Rhode Island who currently lives in Massachusetts. He is considered as the best SSBU Zero Suit Samus player, and one of the best Mega Man, Ike, and Captain Falcon players in the world. Marss is currently ranked 1st on both the New England Ultimate Power Rankings and the Massachusetts Smash Ultimate Power Rankings, as well as 5th on the Fall 2019 PGRU.
In Smash 4, he is considered the second best Zero Suit Samus player in the world, after Nairo. He has taken sets off of top players such as ZeRo, Salem, Nairo, MkLeo, Dabuz, Tweek, Larry Lurr, VoiD, tamim, Cosmos, and Ally. Marss is currently ranked 1st on NER 2017-2018 and 16th on the Panda Global Rankings 100.
Marss is also a very talented doubles player. He usually teams with Light and the pair are considered the best Ultimate doubles team in the world, notably placing 1st at Pound 2019, Low Tier City 7, Super Smash Con 2019, GENESIS 7, and Frostbite 2020. However, he also has lot of success with other partners, such as placing 1st at Frostbite 2019 with Tweek, 1st at Full Bloom 5 with Cosmos, and 2nd at MomoCon 2019 with MkLeo. As a result, he is considered one of the best doubles players in the world.
On March 22nd, 2019, Marss was signed by Panda along with Coney.[1]
Playstyle
Marss is quite known for his very quick and aggressive approach and punish game. For many of the characters that he uses, he noticeably takes their aerials and special moves to create out-of-the-box edgeguards, mix-ups, and setups, or he'll take some of their more situational moves in their toolkit and use them to take out his opponents stocks. When either of these are successfully executed, they bring much hype to the audience witnessing it. Additionally, due to playing Zero Suit Samus, Marss is known to go incredibly deep for edgeguards due to the character's strong recovery.

Trivia

- Marss sometimes says the phrase "True Combo" when he gets a combo that isn't true.

- Marss' Incineroar is infamous for its usage of forward tilt, dubbed "Cheeto Fingers".
- One of Marss' favorite video game series is Fire Emblem, with Path of Radiance being among his favorites in the series.
