It was announced today by Team YP that Jason "Bizzarro Flame" Yoon would be retiring from professional eSports to focus on his career as an attorney. Originally signed by the team in June of 2015, his stunning plays, hard reads, and undeniable style have been a pleasure to watch for many throughout his entire competitive career, as his Ganondorf is considered one of the best in Melee. Bizzarro Flame has this to say in the official announcement:

“It has been a wonderful and amazing experience working with Team YP. Unfortunately, there comes a time when a person has to prioritize on other career goals for the betterment of his or her own future. Nevertheless, I have learned so much from this team, and I could not have asked for a better sponsor. My involvement in the competitive Super Smash Bros. Melee community will be limited from now on, but I will still visit/attend events here and there to show my support for the community. I would like to deeply thank Team YP for providing me with opportunities to explore my potential as a professional player and providing me with the utmost support anytime I needed assistance. And I truly thank the team for completely understanding my decision to concentrate on my legal career.”

We wish Jason the best of luck in all his future endeavors. Have a favorite moment or gfycat with Bizzarro? Sad to see him go? Sound off in the comments below and stay tuned to Smashboards for everything in Smash news.

 

Good luck in your future endeavors Bizzaro!

 

Attourney, huh?

I wonder if that could mean he'd be a good source of insight on all the politics in the legal system, I mean, how easy would it be for smashers to ask him "what would *such-and-such* mean" should it relate to Smash?

I wish him luck in that alien world of [legal] politics, though...

 

Good luck in the future Bizzarro

 

Hope he has a very good future ahead of him! He's certainly made his mark as the most stylish Ganondorf in history.

 

Its always sad to see another player go. I hope everything works out for you Bizzarro Flame.

 

Biz is a true boon to the melee community. Gave so many great entertaining moments in the games lifespan, and I know his success will be guaranteed in the future, and I hope he comes back when he's hit the big time as a successful attorney.

 

Sad to see such a stylin' and profilin' Ganon go, but I guess life comes before Smash.

Still, I sincerely hope he'll eventually find the time to come back to competetive Smash even after he gets a professional career as an atourney; I mean, an atourney who can style and profile on the best is an atourney I'd want.

 

Best of luck in the future Bizz!

 

Attorney?

Well, I guess he has to defend himself if he gets sued for up tiling

 

Bizz was one of my favorite Melee players. So sad to see him go ;(

Good luck out there, man!

 

He wants to be an attorney so he can make that "EAZY MONEYYY!"

 

It was so much fun to watch Bizzaro play, I hope his legal career goes well. The next event he attends though I hope he lists his tag as Bizzaro Flame: Ace Attorney.

 

Can't delete, removing all my posts for privacy.

 

He's gonna make them hard reads in the game and real life, good luck bizzaro

 

As much as I would love to see Bizzarro continue his Smash career, I respect his decision to pursue his Attorney position. It's heartbreaking to see such a notable figure leave, but that's nothing I can change.

Good luck, you living legend! Come back to visit, soon!

 

rip bizzy, died from 5-0

 

Bye Bizzaro

 

So much of the way I play Ganondorf comes from Bizarro Flame; he was a bigger influence on me than Kage. If he's as good an attorney as a Ganondorf then he must be swimming in cash right now, so I understand his departure. Good luck, sensei.

 

One of my favorite players.

I wish him success.

 

We will all miss Bizzarros Ganon

 

Man this is so sad. He's my favorite. Good luck Bizz.

 

Good luck Biz, hope to see you come back to style on them high tiers. Truly one of my favorites to watch.

 

Good luck with the career! IF I'm ever in a legal bind ill make you my first choice ;p Tomorrows game of smash I shall play Ganon in a sending out of a great player

 

Hey Bizz, at least you took a game off of Armada :D.

 

He always such a DARING Guy. Hope he does well in his future endeavors.

 

"Kage is a fraud"

 

Thank you Bizz for all the gify cat moments

 

Good luck with becoming an Attorney, Biz. You were one of my favorite Melee players and it's sad to see you go, but we'll continue to support you.

 

Well, I guess it's Ganon's time to return to the Shadow Realm and reap on everybody's souls. Bye Bizzarro. This community wont be the same without you

 

Good luck gifycat lord. You will be missed.

 

Good luck to this guy on his future. Let's be real: for most of us, Smash alone won't pay the bills.

Get that money.

 

I will always remember the time he uptilted the oranges, they got bodied

 

Bizzarro Flame is one of the great Ganondorf players like KagetheWarrior.

 

Dang I was never much of a Melee players but your games were hype. Good luck in the future.

 

RIP the bizz jug, he will never tell us what was written on it D:

 

Welp, only one true video to end this...

(In all seriousness Jason, I wish you luck in the future. Being an attorney must be some hard-a** s**t.)

 

One of the most entertaining players to watch. I wish him nothing but happiness in whatever career he pursues.

 

I'll missed bizarro especially his personality that he reflected upon the smash community. Lol

 

Goodbye based jason ;A;

Bizzarro Flame is one of the great Ganondorf players like KagetheWarrior.

We don't speak of his name here ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
