This is an interview thread, not a GD GD thread. (The 2 GD's are intentional.) Take it somewhere else so I can archive interviews more efficiently (When I FEEL like it).

MX, If you wanna learn ROB, come to Utah for a while, we have 3+ of themand Colorado is right next door and has a really good one as well. One of our ROBs is insanely good and at SIN2 entered dubs with X and went to Grand Finals using a Sonic/R.O.B. team. Losing only to M2K/FOW. That is his only out of state so far and he didnt have money to enter singles :( He also is our 4th best on the Power Rankings.

The other ROBs are all decent as well, and one of them is even my brother. I fight him all the time so I could give a few tips on ROB.

Do you have some sort of obsession with piss?
Why do you think yoshi can aircamp (he can't btw)?
Do people often ask you for fried chicken?
What a top yoshi main should be able to do in your opinion?
Does Poltergust shower?
Thoughts on the yoshi ditto?
If you could pick any color yoshi to be in the game, what would it be, or if it already exists (piss), why?

Damn, I saw these questions coming from 100 miles away. What's next, METHbusters, or some other Kentucky-related joke?

1) Do you have some sort of obsession with piss?
Well, taking a piss has found to be quite relieving. Gotta go R. Kelly on 'dem hoes.

2) Why do you think yoshi can aircamp (he can't btw)?
He has a little of everything that is required to be able to air camp, yet he lacks the right amount of aerial acceleration and other crap. All in all, Yoshi's air game is highly vital for resetting positioning and then regaining control of the fight.

3) Do people often ask you for fried chicken?
Nope, no one really likes KFC anymore, and didn't they change their name to Kitchen Fresh Chicken or some sh*t not too long ago?

4) What a top yoshi main should be able to do in your opinion?
Beat people that know the MU, have an OUTSTANDING ground an air game, be able to punish landings as well as any Olimar, be able to zone and set up combo bait with egg toss (tosses that will initiate what Scatz calls "The Set-Up"), have flawless techskill, go further with DR than what anyone has presented thus far (goes towards ground game), NOT MAKE ANY EXCUSES for anything pertaining to difficulty of MU's, or ATs; think outside the god damn box and quit exaggerating ratios. Dan doesn't even have as worse ratios as I've seen people spit up in here.

5) Does Poltergust shower?
As much as he makes sense on the boards, I presume.

6) Thoughts on the yoshi ditto?
It's okay, but I'm one of the ONLY people to have to play it where the f*cking thing actually matters (death pools and 2nd round of winners...).

7) If you could pick any color yoshi to be in the game, what would it be, or if it already exists (piss), why?
Gold, BLARG, or a Saints Yoshi.

8) How's it feel to be the 13th person interviewed? Perpetuating the 13th tradition?

CURRRRRRSESSSSS

9) Why Piss Yellow?
Well, I guess it started out because I was growing tired of Cyan, and wanted to pick a color that not many other people picked. Now I just want it to be gold. =\

10) Why [is Scatz] still the go to Yoshi these days for approval?
[Scatz has] a more level head than everyone else, and the other level-headed Yoshis are overlooked (i.e. Celes, Shiri (overlooked nowadays because it's so god damn hard to contact him), etc.).

11) How far do you think Yoshi players will go before trying something new?
They won't. They have to see something new work before they actually put some effort into it.

12) Favorite Yoshi idols (Melee and Brawl)?
Melee: Vectorman and Fumi.
Brawl: ............. Why look up to someone if you're seeking to surpass everyone?
Now, equals that I seek to for opinions (which are just a select few) and enjoy watching: Scatz, Fingerp@ss, Zudenka, Slice, Karamity, Mr. Clutch, Bwett, Ace, other old Yoshis, etc.

13) Michael Jackson?
THE EXPERIENCE. (That game is too fun)

14) Future Yoshi players that could cause an impact?
I honestly haven't gotten to look at many of the newer yoshis, but the "bigger names" just seem to be plateauing, imo.

15) Why do you think these boards are dead?
Trolls, meat-riding, biases, and the lack of experimentation, free-thinking, and branching out.

16) Do you think [Scatz's] Let's Play series will be good?
If you rid your mic of that terrible background noise, then yes, I believe it'll do well.

17) Do you have some sort of thing for piss? hahahaha
Do you have some sort of thing for gender-confused ninja princesses?

18) How well do you honestly think people know the yoshi MU?
Well, let's think: How many people believe that breaking out of Egg-Lay as soon as possible is the ONLY viable strategy to approach the situation? How many people are STILL afraid to go offstage against Yoshi? How many people still can't figure out how many eggs Yoshi can throw on the ledge before he must return to the ledge, or at least a way to deal with the situation? HOW MANY PEOPLE STILL THINK YOSHI IS GOOD ON THE LEDGE? How many people STILL don't know how Yoshi's Heavy Armor works?

My answer is 5. I don't know who every person is, but there must only be 5 competent non-Yoshi players.

19) Why are you soo good??????
>___> Because I stock-cancel like a pro. My egg lays, their follow-ups, my egg placements, and my DI are good; I am not.

20) Ouch, cold shoulder?
Relax, I didn't list the people I seek opinions from besides Scatz.

21) How would you approach the MK match up?
Very carefully... Seriously though, land egglays often, since they're the equivalent of a knock-down in a fighting game, zone with eggs properly, go for grabs when he only does stuff that is obviously unsafe (i.e. nadoing on your shield while to close to the ground), and get him banned.

22) Snake?
Egg lays. Eggs. Punish landings. Don't stale uair between 70-150%.

23) Diddy?
Egg lays. Eggs. Separate him from his bananas. Get him off stage and CG him when able to.

24) ZSS?
Don't fight air-to-air. Abuse heavy armor in early %'s and against stun crap. Egg roll seems to work against aerial Zss's for some reason... o.O

25) What do you think of Deltacodding?
Needs more beating top level players. Jk, I've never actually thought about it.... It's ok?

26) Favorite stage? (National Ruleset).
All of them.

27) Ban MK?
Only in our dreams. =(

28) Top yoshi mains?
Going to keep saying this: there aren't any.

29) Why is diddy so free?
He's f*cking fun to fight against, and most of them don't know how to fight without their bananas.

30) Why do you lose to sheik?
Losing to Judo=/=Losing to Sheik. No one knows how to fight Yoshi better than him, plain and simple. If you would like to know why he beats me with Sheik, I can list it:
-He's the f*cking encyclopedia of Brawl
-He knows more about Yoshi than the majority of the Yoshi boards
-He knows every option Yoshi has because I play him every single day, and I personally go through several different phases with him
-He plays the character that is the 2nd best at gimping in the whole game, and he knows every single one of Yoshi's recoveries
-His Yoshi is very solid
-He knows Yoshi's double jump mechanics

Must I go on?

I disagree with any comment about not staling up air. Its not like its usually replacable, and a hit is better than not hitting with anything

ANSWER MINE

Boxers or briefs

Well, being a more egg lay oriented player than others, it's my best option in terms of following up egg lay, since the other options simply do not have as much reach, and I stale the living sh*t out of nair like it's mah jerb. Idk, it's my personal preference for killing, and I haven't worked with fair in a while. =(

31) Boxers or Briefs?
Boxers.

Holy freakin' crap, at this rate, I'll have more questions than Scatz...

32) You know I love you Airborne, right?
Love you too, big guy.

33) Why're you Airborne, Is it some kinda christian Magic to allow you to do this witchery?
Nah, I'm just fly. :awesome:

34) Why Piss Yoshi?
-See earlier questions-

35)No longer going to tournaments or taking a break?
Actually prohibited from going to tournaments. =\

36) Off the top of your head 3 Worst Yoshi mains that're active.
Haven't been watching them enough to actually rate them.

37) Favorite Fruit?
Apples, Oranges, or Lemons? Idk, been more of a juice guy than actually eating fruit. Ingesting the fruit in its original state would be apples.

38) Highest Placing in tournament?
In a legitimate tournament: like 13th probably. (CURSES)

39) Most Fancy (AT's)/Careful Yoshi
I'm a fancy Yoshi, but preferably I'd say some sort of compromise between the two.

40) Why does my school refuse to give me a Snow Day despite it having snowed constantly for the past 18 hours?
A) The snow's not affecting the roads
or
B) Y'all have had too many snow days and they don't want to rid you of your Spring Break.

41) Can I send you a birthday present?
I guess? o.O My birthday isn't for another like 7 months.

42) Do you ground pound?
On the slopes, on the ledges, out of Jab.

43) Egg roll momentum cancel?
Occasionally. I live long enough without it, but I still try, and then I don't make it back to the stage. =(

44) Are you good with your tongue (something all Yoshi mains should be good at)?
From what I hear, kinda.

45) Dtilt or Fsmash?
DR->Dtilt->DR->Dtilt->DR -repeat-

46) Fav MU?
Snake, Falco, Diddy, or Marth I'd presume.

47) Most hated MU?
Olimar and maybe King Dedede.

48) Fav non-smash game?
The whole Castlevania Series.

49)Did you like yellow in the other smash games?
Nah, I was a blue/green guy back in the day.

50)Are east coast yoshis going to keep losing to t1mmy every time he goes over there?
Hmmm.... East Coast... Well, I suppose Delta and Sharky have a chance; he's not that outstanding of a player. Also, this Midwest Yoshi would like to have a rematch.

51)How many pocket knives do you own?
zero.
52) Are there any sunglasses you're dying to own?
Not really. My dad buys sunglasses like a woman buys shoes, and he gives a few pairs to me.

53) Do you have any seagulls in kentucky?
Not that I'm aware of.

54) Do you have any bagels in kentucky?
I guess so?

55) Which kind of restaurants are more common, chinese or mexican?
Hmmm... good question. I'd say there's an almost even ratio out here.

56) How often do you see dogs in your neighborhood?
VERY. LOVE DOGS. <33333

57) How early do you wake up usually?
Between 6 and 7 a.m.

58)Do you call them totes or grocery bags?
Grocery bags.

59) Is it coke, pop, or soda?
I'm used to soda, I've said coke often before, but I think I'm stuck on fountain drinks due to working at Donatos. o.O

60) Can you change diapers?
I believe I still can. Haven't had to in like 5 or 6 years...

61) Have you ever been in a car accident?
Nope.

62) Ever visited Hawaii?
Sadly, no.

63) Seeing as you use the piss Yoshi, is your favourite flavor Airborne lemonade?
Well, see, I don't normally drink piss... However, it'd be the best beverage for survival if I'm out in the woods for days with no nearby bodies of water.

64) Peanut Butter and Jile?
Better than Peanut Butter and Jelly!

65) Dair to Uair combo yay or nay?
Yaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

67) Why do you get so much questions without being female?
I'm secretly awesome.

68) Why do you hide the fact that you're really a female?
I don't want people thinking that your mother is lesbian.

What do you think the next big step is for me and other yoshis to improve (besides getting the competitors drunk)?

What are you currently doing to get better (or what were you doing when you could play)?

Are you coming back to tournies after this school year or...?

HoN?

I laughed at the polt comment, then felt bad a little, then shrugged it off and laughed again. Then I wondered if you think I'm stupid too...? =/

Is it weird if I care more about your opinion of me more than any other yoshi's?

Do you wish you could toss teammates into the air sometimes?

Hey, I beat Scatz in number of questions, and it's only been 25 hours... o.o

69) What do you think the next big step is for me and other yoshis to improve (besides getting the competitors drunk)?
Listen to new ideas, experiment often, keep an optimistic outlook for every match you play, learn every AT even if you don't think they're that useful, challenge Yoshi taboos by taking another good look at them, etc.
The reason none of us are doing well is because we're trying to make old ideas still work. Branch out! :yoshi:

70) What are you currently doing to get better (or what were you doing when you could play)?
Well, the thing that I've been told to work on is to work on using the best option for every situation. I have an incredible mix-up game due to the fact that that's all I used to have before I finally found a base style, so I need to get more staple ideas that work.

71) Are you coming back to tournies after this school year or...?
As soon as possible. I'm not stopping until I'm the best Yoshi; I'm not sure how much I've said that, but I'm sticking to it.

72) HoN?
Friday or Saturday night perhaps? I get off work both days at 9.

73) I laughed at the polt comment, then felt bad a little, then shrugged it off and laughed again. Then I wondered if you think I'm stupid too...? =/
Not sure which comment you're referring to, but you're okay. You do have your moments though. =P

74) Is it weird if I care more about your opinion of me more than any other yoshi's?
Idk, maybe we just get along better, and our debates often end in a satisfying agreement. I'm not really sure why. o.O

75) Do you wish you could toss teammates into the air sometimes?
Yes, if Gauntlet or Electrician could. I'm not a very good Pebbles. =(

76) Yaaaay Yaaaaay =D ?
YAAAAAAAAAAAY I don't have that mount anymore. =( 10 days been ova.

77) Did you ever get that texture you wanted?
The Saints Yoshi? No. T___T

78) How black are you on a scale of 1 to 10?
SHIIIII HOW BLACK DO U THIN I AM I AN'T TRYNA BE BLACK I JUS IS
.... 3.5

79) Do you like waffles?
LOVE EM, yet love pancakes more.

80) Ness or Lucas?
Ness. He has a better AIR game and his PKT mindgames are too good.

81) If Scatz is Grampz whats that make Shiri and Jile?
Jile is Beowulf and Shiri is Perceus. (sp?)

82) Favorite non US Yoshi to watch?
Zudenka; I feel like we're on the same track in terms of stylistic things, mix-ups, and obsession with egg-lay.

83) Favorite non US player to watch?
Any top European player.

84) How do you feel about Scatz learning to breakdance and challenging you to a 3v3 crew dance battle?
BRING IT! Jk, I can't dance, but it's something I wanna learn. =(

85) Are we ever gonna do that Yoshi Tech Horse game?
I really want to, but can't record anything right now. =\ We need to start it over soon though. Oh, and the video can't have mess ups. I think we should set a time limit to get the feat performed and recorded to make it fair.

What do you think yoshi's best move is? (btw its totally egg lay lol).

Why don't people stick c4 onto people with snake its the funniest thing in game?

Why so serious?

You think Egg lay is the second best airgrab in the game or do you think koopa klaw slips above it?

86) ...So [Poltergust] only makes sense once a day? @_@
I guess if that's how you interpret it...


87) Air, why you surprised you got more than [Scatz]?
Well, I thought that I was one of the least popular. XD

88) What do you think yoshi's best move is? (btw its totally egg lay lol).
That, Egg Toss, or Double Jump. XD

89) Why don't people stick c4 onto people with snake its the funniest thing in game?
Because people don't know that that's the best option against Yoshi when popping out of egg lay.

90) Why so serious?
Mark Hamill still has the best Joker of all time, even if he's only a voice actor for Joker.

91) You think Egg lay is the second best airgrab in the game or do you think koopa klaw slips above it?
Well, Egg Lay is the only air grab that puts the opponent in something similar to a knockdown, therefore it has some of the best follow-ups. It also has better range and has a chance to completely cancel which is a free hit, or another egg lay.

92) Favorite gemstone mineral?
Sapphire?

What's your favorite videogame song?

What brand of shoes do you wear?

What sort of toppings do you like on Pizza?

How did you decide to pick Yoshi?

Favourite Yoshi taunt, favourite taunt overall?

If you were to change 1 thing about Yoshi's moveset, what would it be?

So you're picking up Fox as a secondary, how is your Yoshi experience affecting that?

101) What's your favorite videogame song?
Uhmmmm.... Probably the Chrono Trigger Theme. That or that one song that's on Castlevania: SOTN. Y'know the one that you can ACTUALLY listen to by literally playing the 2nd track on the disc in A FREAKIN CD PLAYER.

102) What brand of shoes do you wear?
Mainly Asics because I have weird feet, but sometimes it's best to strap on yo' Nikes.

103) What sort of toppings do you like on Pizza?
Pepperoni Sausage and Bacon.

104) How did you decide to pick Yoshi?
He's my favorite character in the Mario series and he sort of just clicked when I picked him up during my days as a Falco main.

105) Favourite Yoshi taunt, favourite taunt overall?
Up-Taunt. Yoshi's Up-Taunt.

106) If you were to change 1 thing about Yoshi's moveset, what would it be?
Hmmm... I'd say give dsmash some legitimate kill power or give him his OoS options back (i.e. parrying, jump OoS, etc.)

107) So you're picking up Fox as a secondary, how is your Yoshi experience affecting that?
Well, it hinders my aerial mobility, so I have to work on my ground game some more. However, that actually will help me in the long run because Yoshi needs a powerful ground and air game to have a chance at top level. Also, I have less options at the ledge, forcing me to mix-up how I recover onto the stage more often. And, Fox doesn't have an air grab. =(
Edit: As for MU's, it probably doesn't really do much. XD
Love all dat speed! <3








EDIT EDIT: Alright, guys, my surprisingly long interview has come to an end. Didn't realize people desired to ask me so many questions (about piss... oh, wait, I already saw that coming). Time to start voting for Round 14!

I have a spliced vote between Sharky, Torr, and Silent Beast. Whoever has the most votes will get my vote.
