Max always has a smile on his face and some good words for those who need them. He is gentle and patient, but always enthusiastic. When something gets him down, he never fails to bounce back quickly. In the beystadium, Max is almost the antithesis of Tyson, battling with the brain. His is a strategic and defensive style of play.

Max was given a Bitbeast named Draciel by his grandmother, but he never realizes just what he has until he's dueling Kai during the National tournament. A loss in the first round find his blade damaged and the necklace containing Draciel broken. Max puts one and one together and figures it out, and Draciel's strong defensive abilities have been a fitting match to Max's style of blading since.
