Red Bull’s Friendlies Lets Humble Jack “Duck” Ma Quack about His Play

Most of the best Smash players get a lot of media attention. This is typically due in part to their high profile status allowing them opportunities to speak their minds a lot. Jack “Duck” Ma is an exception.

Playing an exceptional Samus in Melee, Duck has quietly and humbly risen up the ranks of the American Melee scene to become a well-respected player. Enough that Red Bull eSports has given him a platform to talk about himself.

In the piece, Duck talks about his origins, starting off his competitive drive in sports and music rather than gaming. However, once he started gaming, the others frustrated him due to “cutting into my video game time.” They also discuss the griminess of the Midwestern scene, and the uphill battle of playing Samus competitively in Melee.
