Oro is an original member of Team Ben. No longer active in Melee competitive play, they once competed alongside HugS and Wes for the title of best Samus main in the nation.
Oro, a devout fan of the Metroid series, has played Samus for as long as they have been playing Smash. Their first tournament was Live or Die, where they were able to play dittos with Samus legend JTanic. Oro developed a hunger for success, and they were able to achieve top 25 status along with their teammates, Husband and Wife.
Oro has never had a consistent teams partner, and never really enjoyed the teams format. They did excel in singles, however, displaying lots of tricks and style when they played. Oro shows impressive recovering ability, staying calm off the stage and keeping their opponent guessing.
At GS2, Oro played a match of epic proportions against their rival, Wes. The match was so intense it practically sent Oro into a breakdown when they won, exemplifying their passion for the game. Despite a long run of dedication to the game, Oro lost interest in the competitive scene during the 2006 MLG season. They still play the game for fun with their teammates and friends.
