The Zelda Interview Thread - Ask Kisamealex3 questions.

[Kataefi]

mhm DM seems a little busy. I'll give him a few days to respond here but if not would anyone be willing to take this thread? [assuming we still wanna do interviews]

 

[Darkmusician]

I'll gather the questions and send them to sniperworm. After I post the answers I'll post the next interviewee.

 

[sniperworm]

Err, Bobby, did you send me the questions? If you did, I didn't get them.

 

[MrEh]

Who are you? Get back to work!

 

[Darkmusician]

Err, Bobby, did you send me the questions? If you did, I didn't get them.

I'll send them again.

Seventh Victim: sniperworm
Apparently he plays really different from DarkM...

Half Split Soul
How did you come up with your username?
I used to play sniper paintball in starcraft. I got invited to a clan, so I combined the mandatory sniper with my old name.


Have you played Worms much?
Not even once.


How actively do you play Brawl nowadays?
Um, never...


Why don't you post more?
Busy and there isn’t much that needs posting.


Why don't you use an avatar?
Because a picture that small couldn’t possibly represent me.


Why are you The Candy Man?
Because I give out sweet delicious candy to everyone that plays me. Coincidentally, I also used to bring bags of candy to school when I was little and I’m the heir to a vending machine business.


Is your eyesight truly as bad as you once said it to be?
What did I say? Most likely no. Odds are that it’s worse than I said it was.


Did you truly teach DM to play Zelda?
Of course not. DM always knew how to use Zelda.


Is Hawaii as awesome as MrEh makes it out to be?
Yes it is.


What hobbies do you have?
You mean besides video games? I enjoy running, learning, sandbagging, and losing.


What's your profession?
I’m a project engineer for a general contractor. We specialize in wastewater treatment facilities and fuel tanks.


MrEh
What is the most glaring problem with Zelda players' playstyles?
The fact that they keep picking Zelda on the character select screen.


Do you think Zelda players solely focusing on doubles and other side events is detrimental to her tier placement?
Yes, but only to a certain extent. Zelda is still Zelda, so she won’t go much higher regardless.


FMA?
Always.


ScaryEd
Is Mr Eh a real life troll?
He was trolled in real life…


Is there a relationship between MrEh and Italian Spiderman?
Yes, second cousins.


Are we the innovators of Zelda/Sheik?
Naturally.


I heard you don't play seriously, how come?
Because sandbagging is an art and nobody else is doing it right.


What do you think of all the Zelda players on SWF?
That they are brave, brave souls for using Zelda.


If I came down there, can I has teachings?
Of course.


Why CLUF?
Because that is my true name, given to me by my late master.


Do you favor Sheik or Zelda more?
I prefer Zelda, but Sheik is better and generally fits my playstyle better.


What do you think of Out of Country Brawl metagames (Japan/Europe)?
I honestly know nothing about them. I simply assume they’re amazing because I have no definitive proof otherwise.


AyatoK26
Who's your favorite Zelda main?
MrEh


Anime?
I don’t watch much. Mostly mainstream mecha stuff and always the English dub.


Paper or plastic?
Paper. Lots and lots of paper.


Is Zelda really that bad on paper and in practice?
Yes she really is that bad on paper. In practice, not as much. It probably helps if you can see the future.


Justin Timberlake or Justin Bieber?
Justin Gold


Can you do Michael Jackson's Moonwalk?
Can I? Of course, but will I do it is the real question...


What was your recent tourney placement, if any?
I’m pretty sure the last tournament placing I had was tied for last (double forfeit).


Favorite past time of all time?
Research, because knowledge is power.


Least favorite matchup with Zelda?
Ganon, for obvious reasons.


Kataefi
Current opinions on Shelda.
The character is okay, but not a truly tournament viable character.


What would you say to aspiring Shelda mainers?
If you’re serious about learning Zelda/Sheik, then focus on learning Sheik. There’s a lot to know about Sheik, things that you won’t learn just by playing. Zelda, on the other hand, is straight forward and just requires you to out play your opponent.


Are you considering any OoS trips?
No, I don’t like traveling. I get airsick, seasick, and motion sickness when I ride in ground vehicles. I even had a free round trip ticket to anywhere in the US, but I didn’t use it. However, if there was somewhere OoS that I could run to, I’d be all over that.


What are some of your notable brawl moments? notable achievements? etc etc...
Target Test 2 Miracle Cracker Launcher Shot
Lucksack (aka Psychic Shield Cleave)
Zelda UpB Kill
Reflecting a Gordo Drop attempt


Why do people insist that Zelda players insist that Zelda is good?
Because someone has to. And it certainly isn’t going to be everyone else.


Favorite Film/Music Artist/Kid's Cartoon?
Movie – Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm
Music Artist – Yuuka Nanri
Kid’s Cartoon – Yugioh


MAC DADDY PANCAKES --> have you tried one?
No I have not. I don’t know how anyone could finish those.


If you could speak any language, which one?
American


If you could go traveling, where to?
I’d like to travel back in time so I could revisit my past.


Mikachiru
What's your favorite Dr. Seuss book?
Green Eggs and Ham


Valkenhayn and Carl are gonna team up in BB3 (calling it now). Agree/disagree?
Sure. There are so many alternate paths in that game, I’d be surprised if they didn’t.


Do you prefer a manly woman or womanly man?
Manly woman.


Last good Sonic game?
Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine. If the game has to have Sonic in it, Sonic Heroes was my favorite.


Best NES game?
Mega Man 4. The introduction of the best character in Mega Man – Eddie (aka Flip Top).


JigglyZelda
What Wii game do you play the most often and why?
Right now? NBA Jam or TMNT Smash Up. NBA Jam takes me back and is hella fun with an even number of players. Smash Up is just an incredible fighting game. It relies not on fancy combos or ATs to win, but on outsmarting your opponent. Individual punishes do small amounts of damage, the key is executing successful mixups off of resets and tech chases.


Why did DarkM pick the picture for you?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ-uV72pQKI
Embrace his words as my own and you will begin to understand.


What's your fav flower?
The rose of course. Roses are symbolic, beautiful, and expensive, just the way flowers should be. On a somewhat related noted, one of my favorite characters in FMA is Rose Thomas and “Beautiful roses have thorns you know.”


Have you ever google imaged yourself?
Never for pictures. I’m googled myself to see what was out there; used to be a lot, not so much now.


Do you go to college? which one?
I used to go to the University of Hawaii. I graduated a few years ago though.


Do you have multiple friends w/ the same name? if so, whats the name?
Um, yes. Just to name a few off the top of my head: Jonathan, Matthew, Robert, Justin, Kimberly, Sheri-lynn, Erin, and Jennifer.

 

[MrEh]

Movie – Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm

Yes. Yes. Yes.

 

[Darkmusician]

Thanks to sniperworm for taking time out of his busy schedule of bagging sand to answer everyone's questions.

Ok so for the next interview I'm going to make it first come first serve. If you want to be interviewed next please send me a PM requesting. You don't have to say why.

Also at this point I'm not sure if I can pick witty pictures anymore, so if you have a picture that you think best represents you please submit that as well.

I will update the first post soon.

 

[Half-Split Soul]

That was a good interview. There's been quite a long time since the previous one, too.

Is your eyesight truly as bad as you once said it to be?
What did I say? Most likely no. Odds are that it’s worse than I said it was.

You said you hate certain stages

Spoiler

(after checking: Jungle japes, Frigate, Lylat and Final destination)

because you can't see anything.

I have no idea why I remember things like that...

Oh, is that what you were referring to. In that case yes, I can't see on those stages. I can only play on those stages because when Brawl was still new, I had my character move around on those stages so I could figure out the shape and size.

And you remember those things because they are important (counterpick FTW!).

 

[Darkmusician]

First Zelda user to PM me was Kisamealex3.

Updating first post. Ask Kisamealex3 questions.

I'll be compiling all of the questions in about 2 1/2 weeks. Go for it.

Again everyone else that sent me PMs don't sweat it. You will get priority after this interview is finished.

 

[Kisamealex3]

Ohh hey, I actually sent the message first..

So um, ask away? haha

 

[Fluttershy]

1. Kannst du sprechen deutsch?

2. What is (was) the hardest thing to do with Zelda iyo (in your oppinion)

3. Would you prefer Zelda to be with Link
to be continued...

 

[Kisamealex3]

1. Kannst du sprechen deutsch?

to be continued...

Ich kann spreche Deutsch...

It's funny because I just joined a German class at my high school. I'm still learning the basics though. I am the BEST at saying ausgezeichnet (I hope I spelled that right haha). It's SOOO FUN.

 

[-Mars-]

TMNT Smash-Up??? Really??? What a stupid game.

 

[NAKAT]

Jordan questions now!

1. What are zelda's few matchups that are actually in her favor and what top tier does she do the best against?

2. Why did you choose to main her? Did you ever think about dropping her at one point?

3. What are some traits that people overlook about Zelda?

4. Do you truely believe she deserves to be next to the famous ganondorf in the tier list? Where do you think she truely belongs?

1. Ganon, Jiggs, and Yoshi are in her favor imo.

She gets ***** by every top tier but if you ask me, I feel as if she does best against Snake out of S and A tier...though he still "*****" her. Zelda likes it .

2. I chose to main her because she was better than her Melee form at first. I mained Sheik in Melee (I had no idea what a tier was..I was so terrible), and I always liked Zelda but she was too slow. The conversion to Brawl made her like 10x better. She was so much stronger, cooler looking, fireballs were badass, many many more.

Yeah, I've dropped Zelda maybe...2 or 3 times before in the past.

3. She is strong as ****. Everybody just sticks with "Ohh, she's trash. Blah blah." I do agree that she is somewhat trashy but, she's not that bad.

4. Zelda being next to Ganon is stupid to me. She isn't the second worse character.

Zelda belongs in A tier, DUHH.

 

[Fuujin]

...why are we asking him questions?

 

[JigglyZelda003]

...why are we asking him questions?

6. what do you think about school? (idk how old you are/what school you are in)

7. anime? whats your favorite one?

8. do you read? if so, whats your favorite genre?

9. you've only made 1 thread why not make more lol

 

[Half-Split Soul]

Kisamealex3, I can't say for sure but I think it would be much easier for DM to compile the interview if you'd hold off answering the questions until the deadline and then answer them all at once.

And now some Q's:

Wie alt bist du?
Finden Sie, dass es schwer is, Deutsch zu lernen?
What other languages do you speak?
Is your real name Alex? If not, what is it?
Where is the picture in the OP from and why is it so scary?
Who is your favorite Zelda board resident?
Have you ever played Melee or Smash Bros 64?
How did you join SWF?
You've been a member for over two years but only became really active now. Why is that?
If you could change single one thing in Zelda, what would it be?

 

[Darkmusician]

x3 please hold off on answering questions until I send them to you via PM.

 

[KayLo!]

Why haven't I seen you at a PA/NJ tourney yet? When're you gonna make your official debut?

How many people have tried to convince you to switch characters, and which characters have they suggested?

Has Nakat ever hit the dougie on you? How did it make you feel?

Kisame alex.... I'm guessing you're a big Naruto fan, so: Have you played Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 yet? How do you like it? (Lee ftw, eff the Sage Narutos and Minatos. )

Are you okay with Zelda being a bad character and very underused, or would you prefer her to be top tier and massively overplayed like MK?

 

[Kisamealex3]

...why are we asking him questions?

x3 please hold off on answering questions until I send them to you via PM.

Ohh...

.__.

 

[NAKAT]

Ohh...

.__.

He is definitely mad.

 

[#HBC | Scary]

So when you gonna make that debut on our results page?

Have you played the new Donkey Kong?

Do you like Sushi?

How would you describe your playstyle?

Do you ever find yourself fishing for kills and taking too much damage in the process?

If you came to FL with NAKAT, how would you do against me and my Fox partner Trump lol.

That is all for now.

 

[sniperworm]

TMNT Smash-Up??? Really??? What a stupid game.

I can understand why you would feel that way. Most people have not dedicated the time and energy to truly learn the game and everything that you can do. As such, people either are not aware of the true experience that the game can offer due to a lack of exposure or they simply cannot comprehend it.

And even once you reach that level, it's still not for everyone. The style of play that the game favors is not enjoyable to many people as most people prefer instant gratification via huge damage or amazing combos, none of which are available in Smash Up. Zoning and spacing, while still important, are not the primary focus of each match like how it is for Brawl. Instead the game is all about oki setups and yomi which is quite different from what most people prefer.

Regarding Kisamealex3's interview I have one question:

When you play Brawl, what is it that you see?

 

[KayLo!]

Regarding Kisamealex3's interview I have one question:

Damn, why you gotta be so deep..... ;____;

 

[NAKAT]

Yo Kaylo I don't know how to do the dougie >_>!

 

[-Mars-]

But can u jerk???????? that is the question

 

[KayLo!]

Yo Kaylo I don't know how to do the dougie >_>!

Lmao, you have noooo idea how funny that car ride home was after you beat Terrence.

 

[NAKAT]

Lmao, you have noooo idea how funny that car ride home was after you beat Terrence.

Please elaborate tell me everythingggggg. Mainly what that bonehead Tac was probably saying.

 

[KayLo!]

Haha, it wasn't anything bad. He just swore he saw you do a dance when you beat Terrence, so he kept sayin you did the dougie on him. It was mostly funny because of how mad Terrence was getting.

& every time T would say something, Steph's answer would be "But did Nakat hit the dougie on you" rofl.

 

[Kisamealex3]

Damn, why you gotta be so deep..... ;____;

Lol, I feel like I have to create a thesis and support it with a bunch of **** lol.

Yo Kaylo I don't know how to do the dougie >_>!

I don't either, it's okay, Tyrell.

But can u jerk???????? that is the question

...well, it depends...what kind of jerking?

but yes, I can jerk..although that question probably wasn't for me. Lol that's ironic because this is an interview thread for me..and you asked a question..that wasn't for me. LOLOL.

Anywho, I'm bored. Answering the questions as they went along was so fun haha. Now I just sit back and lurk in the shadows until it's time to strike...

 

[NAKAT]

Haha, it wasn't anything bad. He just swore he saw you do a dance when you beat Terrence, so he kept sayin you did the dougie on him. It was mostly funny because of how mad Terrence was getting.

hahaha he is such an idiot. I don't do those ridiculous dances good thing I got to talk to Squall.
