MAIN: KEN

ORGANIZOR

Hey, I’m Zeus. I’ve always been the kind of person who loves competition—whether it’s gaming, sports, or anything that pushes me to be better, I’m all in. I’m a Try-hard, but that’s just because I love the thrill of giving it my all and seeing how far I can go. I’m always excited to welcome new players into the community. Whether they’re experienced or just starting out, I want everyone to feel like they belong. I remember what it’s like to be the new guy. I’m a fierce competitor and a good friend. That’s what I strive for every time I play.

HI I’M EDGAR!!!

Sorry that was kind of loud…

Hi, I’m Edgar.

I make funny skits about Smash Bros. with my Smash Bros. 

I like to take long walks on the beach and TRY HARD with my friends! I nerd out over psychology and philosophy because I love evolving. If you love improving yourself, congratulations! You just might be a TRY-HARD!

🔥805 TRY-HARDS ORGANIZER

What's good, y'all? NoMed here representing that TH from the 805, and I'm glad to be part of this community. I have overall been better than all my friends throughout the entire Smash series, so I decided to join the competitive scene for Ultimate in 2019. With my there's-always-room-for-improvement mentality, I'm curious to see how far my skills take me. Apart from Smash, I also occasionally do art and make music. Follow the team for events if you want to have a good time!
