Ranked 10th on the latest Panda Global Rankings (PGR), Mr. R is known to be one of the most consistent players due to his consistent high placings. This includes 3rd at Apex 2015, 2nd at EVO 2015, 3rd at Super Smash Con 2016, 5th at CEO 2016 and 4th at The Big House 6. The Dutch veteran is widely regarded as one of the world's best Sheik specialists and the dominant force of the European Smash Wii U scene, winning every tournament in the continent except for Smashdown World in November of 2016.
False, also on the new PGR at #41, is an American multi-character specialist well known for his methodical and flashy playstyle. He is also a content producer, often uploading videos to his YouTube channel, Rush Hour Smash. On February 9, 2016, he launched a crowdfunding campaign for a documentary about the history of the competitive Super Smash Bros. Brawl community, which was successfully funded.
Elevate previously sponsored Larry "Larry Lurr" Holland and aside from their two new players, has Smash Wii U content creator Shofu as one of its members.
Author's Note: Elevate has chosen the right individuals to represent them at Genesis 4 and beyond. What do you think about this news? Are you excited to finally see Mr. R and False on a team?
