Hey guys! My tag is Cob and I'm currently ranked #2 in Kentucky. Over the past year I have wins over players such as Colbol and Abate and have several good doubles placings.

Genesis would be an amazing opportunity for me to level up and gain experience. Being from a small town in Kentucky I have to drive around two hours one way to just get friendlies with players on a similar level. Genesis would offer me the chance to learn from and play with a variety of players that I currently don't have access to.
 
Despite a decent 2017 resume, I haven't been able to attend many major tournaments due to both finances and location. I am  an undergraduate student in college and money can be a bit hard to come by. I am asking a relatively low amount compared to other opt-ins and would love to get a chance to compete in California. 

Notable 2017 Wins: Colbol, Abate, 4%, Nightmare, King Momo, Michael4100000, Rik, Reeve, Atomsk. 


Placings:
TBH7 - 129th
FB3 - 33rd
SnS3 - 33rd
Bad Moon Rising - 13th
Fight Pitt 7 - 9th
Kill Roy 3 - 2nd

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Super Smash Bros. Melee is the second installment in the Super Smash Bros. series and the follow-up to the Nintendo 64 title. It includes all playable characters from the first game, and also adds characters from franchises such as Fire Emblem, of which no games had been released outside Japan at the time. Super Smash Bros. Melee builds on the first game by adding new gameplay features and playable characters: it's major focus is the multiplayer mode, while still offering a number of single-player modes.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is the fourth console-based entry in the popular Super Smash Bros. series of fighting games. With an even larger roster of fighters than its predecessors and the introduction eight player battles, Smash for Wii U continues to add to the formula that gamers have loved since 1999.

Super Smash Bros.

Super Smash Bros. is a crossover fighting video game between several different Nintendo franchises, and the first installment in the Super Smash Bros. series. Players must defeat their opponents multiple times in a fighting frenzy of items and power-ups. Super Smash Bros. is a departure from the general genre of fighting games: instead of depleting an opponent's life bar, the players seek to knock opposing characters off a stage. Each player has a damage total, represented by a percentage, which rises as the damage is taken.

Rivals of Aether

Rivals of Aether is an indie fighting game set in a world where warring civilizations summon the power of Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. Play with up to four players locally or up to two players online.

Splatoon 2 is a multiplayer third-person shooter in which players control characters known as Inklings and use colored ink to attack opponents and clear goals. Inklings can alternate between humanoid form, during which they can fire ink with their weapons, and squid form, which allows them to swim through ink of their own color in order to move quickly and replenish ink supplies.

Dance Dance Revolution Extreme

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will feature a variety of exciting and accessible single player modes and rich multi-player content for new players and longtime fans alike. In addition to single player Arcade, Training and Mission modes, a visually stunning and immersive cinematic Story Mode will put players at the center of both universes as they battle for survival against a sinister new threat. Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is being built to highlight a combination of iconic locations and fan favorite characters from both universes, including Captain Marvel and Iron Man from the Marvel side, and Ryu and Mega Man X from Capcom.
