  34. ==Playstyle==
  35. Dark Wizzy was mostly known for his extremely potent [[punish]] game and his "touch of death"; he had a mastery over Mario's combos, where he'd regularly lead each hit into a highly damaging combo that goes beyond the typical Mario fare, making getting grabbed by him an extremely threatening prospect. Since Mario typically finds ease to combo into KO moves, Dark Wizzy had a knack of finding various ways of leading his hits into a forward aerial or one of Mario's smash attacks for an early KO.

  208. ==Trivia==
  209. *Being comparable to {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} as a smasher of a very high skill level despite their young age, Dark Wizzy chose his tag at the suggestion of {{Sm|PB&J}}, being said to be the "black version" of Wizzrobe.
  210. *Dark Wizzy significantly preferred playing doubles over singles, and at tournaments usually opted to play doubles friendlies over offers for 1v1s.
  211. *Dark Wizzy had a deep hatred for [[Sonic]], and had the opinion that nobody should ever try to play the Sonic matchup as Mario.
  212. *Dark Wizzy considered fellow Most Valuable Gaming player {{Sm|Salem}} to be his bracket demon, having had a very poor record against him.
  213. **In addition, Dark Wizzy struggled against {{Sm|Marss}}, who was 6-0 against him.
  214. *While Dark Wizzy is considered the best {{SSBU|Mario}} in ''[[Ultimate]]'', his record in the [[mirror match]] is noticeably worse:
  215. **At {{Trn|GENESIS 6}}, he went against {{Sm|Prodigy}} and lost in a close 3-2 set, placing 17th.
  216. **At {{Trn|EVO 2019}}, he lost 2-0 against {{Sm|MastaMario}}, placing 65th and was tied with {{Trn|Frostbite 2019}} as his worst placement in a tournament outside of DQs.
  217. *Among Dark Wizzy's other hobbies include ''Terraria'', of which he was an avid fan of.
  218. *A consistent joke in Dark Wizzy's fanbase is calling him a furry, which he repeatedly denied.
  219. *Dark Wizzy was known for being very vocal about supporting trans rights, often times playing Mario's pink and blue alternate costume as a representation of this support. At {{Trn|GENESIS 7}} he wore a Transgender Pride flag as a cape on the main stage.
  220. *Dark Wizzy has been joked about [[SD]]ing a lot, which he tends to do in majors. This has led to a joke of a curse, where people playing Mario SD.
  221. *Dark Wizzy was known about his love for Mario and the series overall, with this being expressed by tweets where he just stated "Mario" gaining traction quickly.
  222. **This is also expressed by his [[Twitch]] layout being Mario themed, and his subs being claimed as "Mini-Marios".
  223. *Dark Wizzy considered Green Mario to be his worst Alternate costume, having had a strong and vocal dislike toward the alt.
