“Shroomed isn’t only a skilled competitor, but also a player that consistently reflects the IMT commitment to holistic performance," said Immortals CEO Noah Whinston in a blogpost. "DaJuan’s focus on mental and physical wellness as keys to competitive performance made him an easy choice as Immortals’ SSBM representative.”
Shroomed is a top professional Melee player specializing in Sheik, with Dr. Mario as his secondary. Placing top 8 at multiple national-level events throughout the year, he is considered to be in the top echelon of competitive Melee, in the group of players right outside the 'Big Six'.
Author's Note: We at Smashboards congratulate him and wish him only the best for his Melee career and a great 2017 season. Stay tuned!
