... that Marss, who has used Zero Suit Samus across three Super Smash Bros. titles and is considered the best player in the world with her, picked the character because "she just looked cool"?

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. The image is freely licensed, but the coloring is weird. Both hooks are verified and cited inline, but I think you could do better. The source for ALT0 says he wears "pajama pants", which unless he is going bare-chested is different from "pajamas". ALT1 is too wordy and unclear to someone who doesn't know anything about the tournament. I think it's interesting the way you express it in the article that she gives him more speed and mobility, rather than she looks "cool". Could you suggest a different alt? QPQ done.

- The coloring of all of the images of players at commons:Category:Frostbite_2020 is blue because of the lighting at the event space. Getting photos of Smash players has proven surprisingly difficult.
- ALT2: ... that professional Super Smash Bros. player Marss is known for his aggressive, unconventional style that capitalizes on Zero Suit Samus' superior mobility?

- @The Squirrel Conspiracy: Ooh, that's great! We just need inline cites for the "aggressive" and "superior mobility" hook facts. Yoninah (talk) 21:07, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
