Sasha Italia Sullivan, known by her gaming handle Magi, is an American professional Super Smash Bros. Melee player from Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Sullivan began her competitive gaming career in 2015. Mainly using the character Falco Lombardi,[1][2] Sullivan's improving tournament placements led her to be ranked as a top 100 Melee player in the world by 2018, according to power rankings presented by Red Bull and esports team Panda. She is the first woman to appear on formal power rankings of Melee players.[3][4]

Sullivan was sponsored by the esports team Beastcoast from 2021 to 2023, and was briefly sponsored by Counter Logic Gaming prior to its dissolution in 2023. Panda ranked her as the 21st best Melee player in early 2022.[5]
