Career
aMSa was born in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan, on October 27, 1991.[1] He stated that he has been a fan of Yoshi since his childhood and that, since the release of Super Smash Bros. Melee, Yoshi was his favorite character. Yoshi is considered a bad character for competitive play due to aspects such as his large hitbox, poor defensive options, and lack of recovery when knocked off stage. For a time, he was considered the fourth worst character in the game.[2] aMSa started his professional career in 2013, having decent results, including a win against Mew2King, ranked third in the world at the time. In 2014, he finished ninth place at Apex and, next year, finished fifth.[2] In 2019, due to aMSa's performances, Yoshi went on to be considered the twelfth best character in the game.[2]
In February 2019, aMSa signed with Red Bull.[3] He moved to Vancouver, Canada, in 2022, to compete in more North American tournaments.[4][5] On October 10, 2022, he won his first major tournament, The Big House 10, after beating Mang0; this was considered one of the most "stacked" tournaments of MeleeШаблон:'s history. This was the first time a Yoshi won a major in the history of Melee.[6][7] By the end of the year, he also won majors Apex and Scuffed World Tour,[8] and was considered the second best Melee player as ranked by SSBMRank.[9] In March 2023, aMSa joined esports organization Golden Guardians.[10]
