Gaming Origins
ZeRo started playing Super Smash Bros. since Super Smash Bros. 64 released in 1999. Although he began participating in Super Smash Bros. tournaments in 2007, he soon took a break from it until 2010, when he primarily focused on Smash’s Brawl mode.
Professional Gaming
ZeRo continued participating in Smash tournaments into his adult years, when he started travelling to the US to participate in the Smash 4 melee tournaments there. He had to work $2 an hour jobs to pay for his tickets. He joined Tempo Storm in November 218 and remained with them until July 2020.
In January 2018, he announced his retirement from the tournament circuit in order to focus on a streaming career. He returned to tournament participation in November 2018. He has cited small prize pools and the long delays in payment of tournament winnings as one of his primary reasons for occasionally dropping out of the scene. Another reason was that he had already accomplished all that he could in the professional circuit.
