Phantom of the Server (often abbreviated to PotS) is a Portuguese M.U.G.E.N creator best known for making conversions of characters from Capcom vs. SNK 2 and the infamous Rare Akuma, as well as his expertise regarding the technical specifics of traditional 2D fighting games and general willingness to help other creators improve; he also made a large array of stages and a number of bonus games, along with updates to Reuben Kee's three characters to take advantage of M.U.G.E.N 1.0's features.
The majority of PotS' characters were made in what is commonly referred to as 'PotS style', which is primarily based on the gameplay of Capcom vs. SNK 2 with different mechanics pulled from each of the game's Grooves, such as the A-Groove's Custom Combo, the P-Groove's Parry, and the S-Groove's Power Charge, as well as mechanics from other titles such as EX Specials from Street Fighter III, though each character may also feature mechanics that were borrowed from their source games, as demonstrated by the Darkstalkers characters being able to perform Chain Combos; the moveset of each character is often a combination of movesets from all iterations of said character, typically featuring every move they had ever used. Though the style may seem simple in practice, very few creators have been able to accurately recreate it, with many imitators simply using the style's aesthetics and basic mechanics instead of accurately replicating it.
He made a surprise return to M.U.G.E.N in 2022, releasing updates to his main characters, eventually releasing Ikemen GO versions of them later that year, alongside a few add-ons later down the line and various contributions to the engine itself.
