ken complex

This is a phase in life when you feel as though that you are at the top. As a result, one suffers and constantly has this burden to stay the best for a long time. Effects may include loss of excitement and no showing of emotions. Named after the professional melee smasher Ken, he maintained the title as the "King of Smash" which put this big load on his back to carry for a long time.
