Widely regarded as the top Cloud and Pyra/Mythra player in the world, and sitting comfortably as the second best overall player just behind MkLeo, this teenage sensation hails from Tijuana, Mexico. With a solid following of 30,000 on Twitch and a much larger presence of 70,000 followers on Twitter, Edgar Valdez has certainly made a name for himself in the competitive gaming scene.

Before all the fame and recognition, Edgar’s journey began like many others—his very first game was Super Mario 64 on the Nintendo DS. Even back then, it was clear he had a natural talent for gaming. He started participating in Smash 4 tournaments and consistently performed well, all before he had even turned 12.

Interestingly, just four days after celebrating his 13th birthday, Edgar received a ranking of 31st from Wi-Fi Warrior Rank v2. This achievement was particularly notable because it made him the youngest player ever to be ranked on any version of the WWR leaderboard.

For those who might not know him by his gamer tag, his real name is Edgar Valdez, and he continues to impress fans and fellow competitors alike with his skill and dedication to the craft.
