*FOR REFERENCE OF THE LETTER, LOOK AT MY AVATAR*

I recently saw a vieo of S2J playing and he had his tag as "n0ne" but what he used for the E, I could not figure out how he got it. I am more than certain it was "ghayn" from the Arabic alphabet, but after multiple extensive searches on the vanilla options for the tags, I have been unsuccessful in locating it.

My search did reveal that there is a japanese character that looks veryyyyyyyy close to "ghayn" but I don't believe that was what I saw. Unfortunately, I cannot remember exactly when or what even I saw this tag at. All I think I can remember was that S2J was playing doubles at the time.

Is there some way to add to the alphabetical selection on 20XX, or is there some console settings I need to change in order to access these characters?

I'm pretty sure that was just a Japanese character that looks similar to that one. There are no arabic characters on there that I am aware of.

My guess is that you saw と or ど, since that's the kana that resemble غ the most. I also vaguely remember seeing the tag N0Nと somewhere, and possibly と used as an "e" in other tags.

If someone had modded an Arabic character set/font into Melee, then you'd most likely know about it already (since it'd be posted in the Melee Workshop). I haven't heard of it, at least.

:/ Yeah that's what I've been trying to convince myself for the last few days. I think I saw just the majority of the symbol and got over-excited that ghayn was possibly in the options for the tags.
