mYinsanity’s foray into the competitive Smash scene begins with Mustafa “Ice” Akcakaya, who is regarded as the best German player and previously as the best “Sheik” player in the world, before switching his main character to “Fox”.
Ice began playing competitive Smash in 2008, and in 2013 gained international acclaim as he placed 7th at EVO 2013. Ice is also listed at #17 in the top 25 Smash players of 2015 provided by “Melee It On Me“, a well respected bi-weekly podcast that discusses news and headlines within the Smash community.
Ice had this to say about joining the mYi family…
“I’m really happy to join mYi. I’m looking forward to representing the team to the best of my ability and I will make sure to improve a lot while doing so.”
Stefan “PengWin” Mott expressed his excitement on expanding into Smash and the signing of Ice…
“We’ve been big fans of Smash here at mYinsanity for a long time, and so we’ve been talking on and off about picking up a smasher to represent us. Finally, we’re able to welcome Ice to the family, and I’m thrilled that we’re making our step into the smash scene with him. It seemed only fitting that as a European team we’d look to one of Europe’s finest to lead the charge in this new venture, and I can’t think of anybody better to do so than Ice.”
Be sure to watch Ice debut for us at Dreamhack London, which is from Sept.19th-20th at the Copperbox Arena! He will also be competing at Dreamhack Winter where he will look to finish the year off strong and head into a very exciting 2016!
