Hi there! My name is Zach "SPARKLE" Burgoyne, an Ultimate Hero player that has helped several other players improve their play to the next level. I have been competing since 2019 but I started pulling results around mid-2021. Here is my SmashData profile: https://smashdata.gg/smash/ultimate/player/SPARKLE?id=1318973&online=False. I have gotten top 64 at a couple majors and 65th at many other ones. I have won many locals and I consistently top eight them in a fairly strong region. I have been PR in Oregon every season since Fall 2021, except one where I was on break. I am commonly considered to be one of the best Hero players in the world. I think this makes me incredibly qualified to teach as I have put thousands of hours into Smash. I have been coaching people to the best of my ability since around 2020 but lately I have been helping many Hero players and even some non-Hero players improve their play to higher levels. I'm doing my best to help people get better at both Hero and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a whole. One of the people I've been teaching for a while, Aesor, has gotten a lot more comfortable in matchups and has ironed out his bad habits and has been doing incredibly well in his region. I have been told my several students that I have a very clear and concise way of explaining the game. My coaching method is very direct and it depends on what kind of lesson. For games in a battle arena, I play several matches with a student and write notes while we play. These notes are things I notice along the way during our games, which I also point out verbally. With vod review, I review every game in a set two times. The first time, I focus on what my student did right. The second time, I focus on aspects you could have improved upon. Then I make an in-depth summary of the game. I follow this process for as many games as there are in a set. I do this because it is almost as important to tell someone what they are doing wrong as it is to tell them what they are doing wrong. I also write up notes on the student's struggle matchups and I send in-depth explanations for general game and Hero-specific techniques. NOTE: I will not do online matches with long-distance connections, anything outside North America is too far to play in. Please have a wired Ethernet connection.
