Kameme (かめめ), formerly known as Kamemushi (かめむし), is a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Sora player with a Mega Man secondary from Tokyo, Japan. He is considered the best Sora player in the world and one of the best Sheik players in Japan. Prior to using these characters, Kameme played Mega Man and Wario and was considered to be the best Mega Man player and one of the best Wario players in the world prior to the COVID-19 pandemic; both characters have since been relegated to secondaries. He is currently ranked as an Honourable Mention on the LumiRank 2024.1 due to his inactivity and was ranked 15th on the old Experimental Smash Player Rankings.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Kameme was a Mega Man and Sheik co-main and was also considered the best Mega Man player in the world. He was a pioneer in Mega Man's metagame, and his run at EVO 2016, where he defeated ZeRo and VoiD to place 2nd, helped improve Mega Man's position in the metagame. Kameme is currently ranked 9th on the JAPAN Power Rankings and 18th on the PGR 100.

On September 30th 2016, Kameme was signed by DetonatioN Gaming.^[1] They later parted ways on October 4th, 2018. On December 6th, 2018, Kameme was signed by RayRoad Gaming.^[2]
