Alpharad, the online persona of Jacob Rabon IV, has become a staple of internet culture through his highly edited gaming videos and unique brand of ironic humor. Most Alpharad memes originate from his Super Smash Bros. Ultimate gameplay, particularly his obsession with the 'Forward Aerial' move, or his expressive reaction faces during his various 'Challenge Mode' videos. Fans use these templates to represent moments of feigned intellectual superiority, chaotic gaming strategies, or self-aware irony. As a central figure in the gaming YouTube sphere, his likeness is frequently paired with captions about niche internet subcultures and 'big brain' maneuvers that are actually just lucky accidents.
