Steelhead first discovered ARMS upon its initial announcement on January 12th, 2017. With excitement for the new game, he and fellow Smash Bros. player Guts, created a Discord server for ARMS. Despite initially being somewhat of a joke, the server grew to a large size and eventually outclassed many other ARMS Discords. After gaining some help from the Pokken community for moderation, as well as partnering with the r/ARMS Discord Server, the server was renamed ARMS Central. This server's goal was to be a hub for most, if not all, other ARMS communities while also being a community itself. To this day ARMS Central is still utilized by many players and community members. | Steelhead first discovered ARMS upon its initial announcement on January 12th, 2017.

On February 4th, 2018, Steelhead formally announced that he was leaving the ARMS community as the game was bringing out the worst in his emotions. He often engaged in arguments or drama with other players which didn't promote a positive environment. However, the final straw in his decision to retire was when he broke a controller due to anger caused by a [[Ranked Match]]. Steelhead still occasionally went to locals and supported the community throughout his retirement, even running a small tournament known as "The Steel Trap" in August of 2019, but did not fully come back to the community until early March of 2020, just before the announcement of an ARMS character in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]. After coming back from retirement, he continued to show his prowess by placing high in numerous online majors including [[Bamboo Battles: Hibernation Arc]] and [[Quarantined Rapport 2]]. | On February 4th, 2018, Steelhead formally announced that he was leaving the ARMS community as the game was bringing out the worst in his emotions.
