Grim Tuesday is a young South Australian smasher. He plays Brawl, Melee, and the original Super Smash Bros. game. He is primarily known in the Australian community for his strong views on rule-sets. He is one of the few players who uses "Up" (Tap Jump) to jump. He uses the tag "Z28" in Melee (the name of a song by industrial metal band, Static-X) and "Grim" in Brawl.
He is ranked 5th on both the SA Brawl Power Rankings and the SA Melee Power Rankings. He teams with various players in Melee and Ghostbone in Brawl (GG).
He frequently attends and hosts tournaments at Valhalla and StreetGeek LAN Parties in Adelaide, and is considered primarily responsible for reviving interest in Melee in South Australia.
Characters
SSB:
Luigi (Blue): His former/current main. He is still using Luigi until he learns Fox.
Fox (Green): His new main, being taught by Blackshadow
SSBM:
Ice Climbers (Orange) : His current main until he is confident enough to use his other character as his mains. He uses Ice Climbers against Falco and Jigglypuff. He changes his tag to "1+1=" while using them.
Falco (Red): His new main. He uses Falco in the majority of match-ups.
Fox (Green): One of his secondaries, he bases his playstyle off of Mango's Fox.
Pichu (Blue): His low tier main. One of the most active members on the Pichu boards, his playstyle heavily involves the use of back-air spacing and Agility dashing.
Samus (Purple): His last secondary, he hopes to further develop his fast, aggressive Samus playstyle.
SSBB:
Meta Knight (Pink): His main. He is known for his very campy, play-to-win, style and using primarily 5 moves in every match-up (Uair, Dair, Mach Tornado, Shuttle Loop and Glide Attack).
Jigglypuff (Sleeping Hat): His secondary, his goal is to prove that Jigglypuff's position on the tier list is incorrect, and that she has the potential to reach mid tier if played properly. Also his character for Low Tier matches.
Mr. Game & Watch (Yellow): A secondary he is developing. Currently being tutored by Victorian G&W main, Splice.
