When i was 4, my eldest brother purchased super smash bros melee, back then i didn't even know what a smash attack was, and mained mario. I got salty frequently, and instead of smashing bros i would smash controllers. I broke 1. Flashforward to 2nd grade when i hung out with a friend of mine who had brawl. I went straight to meta knight because i thought he was an edgy kirby, i played a lot but was trash. Me and my brother beat the subpace emmisary in a day. When smash 4 came out this is when i tried hard to get good at smash and took smash seriously. When i plateaued and got bored at smash 4's gameplay my smash passion was revived when another friend showed me project m last year. I was wonderstruck at the depth and diversity of the gameplay. One day in a intermission of a school concert, the chorus kids set up melee and i got rocked by a captain falcon main. He gave me a lot of pointers and helped me join the competitive scene. After learning how to mod and some random events this same CF main informed me of melee netplay. I've been using it ever since, practicing marth and getting involved in the smash community. My love for smash will always move me forward.
