Added in a description after getting permission from Astro. To be fair, the header doesn't allow two mains in one.

AstroNinja first saw ARMS when it was shown off during a [[Nintendo Switch]] Presentation on January 12th, 2017, though he didn't gain a heightened interest in the game until he played it at a demo event later in the year. This exposure, combined with the hype that the late YouTuber Etika surrounded the game with, intrigued Astro enough to pick up ARMS. In the early days of ARMS, he mainly played [[Min Min]], but later switched to [[Dr. Coyle]] once she released with [[Version 5.0.0]]. During this early stage of the community, he was also a member of the team Neopunch. Despite not being very publicly recognized, Astro managed to get 5th in the Customs bracket at [[Smash'N'Splash 4]], defeating many notable players including, [[Para]], [[HESS]], and [[Kholdstare]]. | AstroNinja first saw ARMS when it was shown off during a [[Nintendo Switch]] Presentation on January 12th, 2017, though he didn't gain a heightened interest in the game until he played it at a demo event later in the year.

Almost 2 years later, he started to co-main Misango after he gotten tired of other player's opinions on Dr. Coyle. | ||
Somewhat later in his ARMS career, AstroNinja was a part a short lived team Nightmare Enterprises (NMe) which was essentially made for ironic purposes. He also joined Kanji Krew, a more serious crew, some time after leaving NMe with this partnership lasting a good while. In February of 2019, Astro attended [[Heart of Battle]] and placed 1st which many see as a premonition to his transformation from good player, to the best player. This was definitively showcased with another win, this time at [[2GG: SwitchFest 2019|SwitchFest 2019]], in late Summer of 2019. Soon after this victory, on September 19, 2019, AstroNinja was signed on to Illuzion Gaming for ARMS.<ref>https://twitter.com/gamingilluzion/status/1174858429287915521</ref> The two aforementioned wins were to many's surprise as prior to this Astro was not a very prominent name to most of the community, but after these wins his name has since become nearly synonymous with competitive ARMS especially with his performances in 2020. | Somewhat later in his ARMS career, AstroNinja was a part a short lived team Nightmare Enterprises (NMe) which was essentially made for ironic purposes.
