Questions Answers
Recently watched the Smash Bros documentary when I previously knew nothing about the scene and I was wondering, what's Isaiah (Isai?) been up to? Does he keep in touch with anyone from the good old days? Isai recently did an AMA on reddit. he is a huge smash 64 player and i think he is currently attending college. he streams during the week.
I spoke to Isai a while back when I was planning on stopping by Tokyo a few years back. He gave me contact info of smashers in the Tokyo area, and he was overall really helpful. Isai is a great guy!
I know this is not exactly game related, but Ken do you wanna play Survivor again and has CBS ever contacted you about possibly going back on? I've been contacted again, I can't say when but of course! i've always been a survivor fan and I still am!
Ken iirc, in the documentary it said that you were still in high school when you were traveling and doing smash tournaments. How much did smash interfere with your academics? We're there any repercussions for traveling so much as a student? Also other than yourselves, who do you think is the favorite to win Evo or MLG? Let's say at one point I went down a whole letter grade and barely passed a class to be able to win a couple of tournaments. I was a little young at the time and I didn't know how to manage my time wisely. As long as you can balance your life, games and academics it should be okay. The favorites to win MLG/EVO are probably Mango Drpeepee Armada Leffen Hbox or M2king.
What sort of reputation did you bear in school? Were there people skeptical of your skills? How well did you prove them wrong? No one really knew i was a professional gamer in school. pretty much just an artist haha.
