Nicknyte is a smasher from Arizona. He became a smasher after watching KillaOR play smash for money and since then, has done decently in the majority of the tournaments he attends. He helped run SAST 2 on October 13, 2007.
His main inspiration came from Forward, the Falco player. Having a grudge on him just because they have the same birthday, only a year apart, that he committed himself to try to be as good as him.
At first, he was an an amateur smasher at the University of Arizona that only hung out with the now retired Nogfu, Forward, and B-will while trying to get better at the game. He left the University in 2006 to Louisiana, where he got himself a name as one of the better smashers in the state. Now, he attends the University of Arizona as a sophomore as one of the best smashers at the University of Arizona.
His first main was Marth and dubbed Marth's Ledgehop D-air "The Nytespike." The state of Louisiana recognizes as such. He considers it his signature move. Since then, he has picked up Luigi, seeing that even lower tier characters can handle the big dogs, based on Luigi Ka-master's results at FCD. When playing Marth, he leans on the idea of spiking people opposed to forward smashing for kills.
He has an apprentice that goes by PXG. He is trying to teach him Falco, while at the same time, giving him competitive smash experience.
[edit] Trivia
Nicknyte main rival is Mr. Jaskolski from Arizona. He is also a Computer Engineering major and is a minor online Sonic celebrity from helping distribute Sonic X eps from Japan, and his Youtube Video "Sonic vs. Knuckles." People tend to assume that all of the spikes he does are called Nytespikes. This is not true.
His motto is "It's Nytetime!"
