Matt

Matt (マット), is a fighter who participated in Red's 2nd LSW tournament, who would later lend his aid from preventing Erk from destroying all of Pixtopia.

## Appearance

During Matt's first appearance, he light blue eyes, standard skin color, average height, and a defined physique. Matt kept his brown hair down, giving himself a ponytail, a red shirt, gray pants, black shoes and a black jacket.

When the 3rd tournament was occurring, Matt let his hair loose, gaining spiky back hair, also wearing a traditional red and white striped gi, alongside standard red martial arts shoes, black and red stripped armbands, a black belt, and his gray pants.

As of the current 5th tournament, Matt has grown his hair to be even spikier, retaining his red shirt, jean pants, and his armbands. Matt wears cat ears headphones, a chain, black, red, white shoes, and a similar matching colored sleeve-less jacket.

## Personality

Matt is shown to have a serious and focused mind during combat. He doesn't seem to get overconfident or arrogant about his abilities. When Matt lost in his second match, he was shown to have good sportsmanship, willing to wait till the end of the tournament and be at the ceremony, paying his respect towards Silver, who became the 2nd LSW champion. Matt showed a good level of teamwork, easily able to work alongside others even during intense situations.

Matt shows a good level of friendship and loyalty towards his friends, as he's known Boris and Coal for a long time even before he entered his first tournament. Matt does show a bit of cockiness and sense of humor, willing to mock his partner Boris for losing his guard down, possibly thinking he's superior than him as well. Despite Matt does the right thing when it comes to saving the world, he does have a perverted side. Matt hoped that should he had won the 2nd tournament, he'd be able to use his fame to get the harem he'd dreamed of. Even by the 5th tournament, Matt still tries to make that dream a reality, much to the annoyance of Boris and Coal.

## Biography

### **Background**

Not much is known about Matt's past. At some point, Matt trained under an unknown master. Matt eventually met his friend Boris when they both joined Coal's gym, both later becoming students under Coal. When Red announces the 2nd LSW Tournament, Matt chooses to partake in it.

### **Red's 2nd LSW Tournament Saga**

Introduced alongside the other fighters prior to the first match, Matt eventually battles Shaun. While Matt was shown to evenly match with Shaun, he would be able to hold on long enough to tire out Shaun from using too much energy, allowing him to throw him out of the ring, winning his first match. During the tournament, David and Fernando informs Matt and the other fighters about Red needing their help. Matt agrees to help out as well, once the tournament ends. Matt then faces off against Ivan in his second match. Despite taking the match seriously, Ivan would slowly overpower Matt, slowly getting damaged in the process. Ivan would then succeed in knocking Matt out. Although Matt would be able to beat the countdown, he would later lose conscious again, ultimately losing the match. Despite losing his Match, Matt would still continue to watch the tournament as the final match unfolds. In the end, Silver would be claimed as champion, with Matt showing his respect during the ceremony.

The Ceremony would get interrupted, as a monk named Erk, who was possessed by Rah's Sword of Command, appears with his army of Neo-Pixel Fighters. Planning to destroy all of Pixtopia, Erk first wishes to eradicate the fighters who participated in the tournament. Red appears and asks the assistance of Silver and the others. They all agree in taking down Erk and his army, starting an all-out battle royale. Matt battles multiple Neo-Pixel Fighters on his own. Despite all of their efforts, Matt and the other fighters fail in taking down even one Neo-Pixel Fighter. It was only due to Erk Copy, a Neo-Pixel copy of Monk Erk, that stopped the army, by killing Erk while he let his guard down, also causing him to lose Rah's Sword of Command. Although Silver possessed Rah's Sword of Command and turned evil briefly, Red and the others saved him from it. Erk Copy then gains Rah's Sword of Command, where Matt and the fighters have one final clash, where they all perform an energy wave at Erk Copy. In the end, Red takes down Erk Copy at the cost of his life. With the defeat of Erk Copy and the Neo-Pixel Fighter Army, Matt heads out on his own to continue his training.

### **Red's 3rd LSW Tournament Saga**

Although Matt would not participate in the tournament, he would be shown as part of the crowd, watching and cheering his friends from the previous tournament.

### **Red's 5th LSW Tournament Saga**

Ever since the defeat of Evil Red happened during the 4th tournament, one final tournament was announced as a way to pay tribute to Red and the heroes of Pixtopia. In hoping to get one final chance to win the tournament, Matt decides to meet up with his old friends, Coal and Boris, hoping to make a team so that he can join and battle the strongest fighters in Pixtopia. Labeled as Team 3, Matt waits until he gets to fight in his first match. Matt was shown cheering for Boris, alongside with Coal, only to be very disappointed to see his partner losing on his first match.

## Power

Matt, being able to participate in Red's 2nd tournament shows that his level of power was worthy to potentially challenge Red's abilities in battle. Matt was given an official power level of 590 and 690 during his two matches, making him stronger than a Skray and a Neo-Pixel Fighter. During his battle with Shaun, Matt showed little struggle in handling some below his level of power. Without needing to get serious, Matt easily throws Shaun out of the ring, showing a significant difference in power.

When Matt faced off against Ivan, he was shown to struggle the most. Although Matt was shown to have a higher level of power, Ivan was much faster than Matt during combat. With Ivan holding back his true power, as well as being able to knock out Matt, to the point of unable to stand any longer, Ivan was likely more stronger than Matt thought he would be.

Matt was capable of fighting on par with many Neo-Pixel Fighters, with an individual Neo-Pixel Fighter given an official power level of 500. it's worth noting that due to Monk Erk possessing Rah's Sword of Command, it's likely he was able to amplify the power of his Neo-Pixel Fighter Army in comparison to a regular Neo-Pixel Fighter. However, even when Matt was able to go all out without being restricted by tournament rules, none of Pixtopian fighters, including Matt, were capable of defeating even one Neo-Pixel Fighters. Matt's energy wave was easily held back by Erk Copy, even with the help of everyone else attack at the same time, showing the massive gap in power between them.

After training for several months by the time the 3rd tournament was occurring, Matt has gotten much stronger than before. Matt was one of many fighters who helped out in defeating Rah's remaining demon army, some demons possibly including Targons and Executioner Class demons. By the time of the 5th tournament, Matt has gotten considerably stronger after a couple years of training. It was even noted by Zymon, who was the 1st LSW champion, that Matt was much stronger than he was leading himself to be. Zymon even implied that Matt is stronger than Boris, as Zymon confirmed that Boris has no chance in ofating him in their match, which turned out to be true during their fight.
