History
The Z made his international debut in January 2014 at Apex 2014, where he beat YBOMBB (2-1) before being sent to loser's bracket by the Japanese player Merihim (1-2) and was later eliminated by tacos (0-2) to ultimately land at an underwhelming 25th place.
In March 2014, he participated at Polybash XIII where he beat notable American and Canadian players such as Sex (2-0) and Fireblaster (2-0), and notably defeated Mew2King (3-1) using Donkey Kong. He placed 2nd, only losing to KeroKeroppi.
In August 2014, he entered singles at Zenith 2014 where he placed 4th, defeating notable players such as Clubba (2-0), LD (2-0) and Nintendude (2-0), before losing to Wizzrobe in a Yoshi ditto (2-3) and KeroKeroppi (1-3). He also won the doubles bracket, teaming with SuPeRbOoMfAn.
On January 10, 2015, The Z traveled to Echo 2015 in Ottawa, arguably the most important Smash 64 event in Canada since many years, where he placed 2nd behind only SuPeRbOoMfAn, having double-eliminated Revan (3-0 and 3-2) and outplacing YBOMBB among other notable Canadian players.
