Hopelessly obsessed with the Banjo-Kazooie franchise.
Main	Banjo & Kazooie
Secondaries	Enderman, King K. Rool, Min Min
Also enjoys playing	Terry, Piranha Plant, Mii Gunner, Villager
Skill	Knows some sweet Banjo & Kazooie plays and combos, and can put up a fairly decent fight with Enderman or Min Min, but that's pretty much it. Not really, really bad, but chances are, couldn't beat you. Prefers a competitive ruleset and setting, but has never participated in an actual tournament. Hasn't played any other Smash game for more than, like, five or ten minutes. Decided pretty quickly that 64, Melee and Brawl weren't for him, and hasn't touched 3DS / Wii U.

—Spamton G. Spamton, DELTARUNE

Um... all you need to know about me is that I am a nerd (I prefer the term "geek") who may have Asperger syndrome or ADHD (no official diagnosis yet). In person I'm shy, quiet, and very slow to putting sentences together, making social interactions extraordinarily awkward. On the internet is where I can accurately reflect my polite, knowledgeable, extremely loyal (and absolutely never narcissistic) self. I apologize in advance for any uncalled-for acts of vigilantism that will probably come about as I try to keep chaos at bay around me (I can't STAND disorder in information reserves like this). Oh, and just in case you're not sure, I am male and would like to be referred to as such.

I got into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate because of my pre-existing connection to Banjo-Kazooie. I started playing in December 2019, and I haven't found any interest in actually playing the other Smash games, but I would consider myself pretty well-versed in Smash knowledge. Unfortunately, most of the time other people beat me to adding technical info, so I often find myself elaborating, fixing formatting, reformatting, finding things for Admins to do that I can't, suggesting nitpicky changes, forgetting about Fox, or "bettering wording" in general. Run for Administrator? When Shrek gets into Smash.

Something else you should know about me as an editor is that I have an unhealthy tendency to closely monitor and scrutinise changes made to pages relating to universes I care about the most - specifically, you will notice this behaviour around Banjo-Kazooie, Minecraft, Cuphead and UNDERTALE info. Please don't worry too much about this, so long as you're not going to be careless with my precious articles - and after all, it's not like I can hurt you over it... right? (If you're interested in my connections to these franchises, see here.)

Here's a friendly reminder that Space Invaders, Frogger and Q*bert, some of the most important and influential video games of the arcade era and of all time, seriously need representation in Smash (also, Pac-Man and Galaxian could use a lot more).

And finally, a heads-up in case you want to accuse me of sockpuppeting: KirboBoi64 is my actual younger brother. He edits in the same house as I, and may make the same kinds of edits I tend towards, but he's not me. Making that clear.

I guess that's everything I really want you to know. But if you're interested in more about me, you can scroll down for random trivia.

Fighter comfort

“	Remember that video-game you and Asriel used to play? What was it called...? Super Smashing Fighters?[sic] When he was very little, he LOVED the green lizard from that.	”
—Toriel, DELTARUNE

How well I understand and handle every fighter in Ultimate. If you have a mouse, you can hover over a fighter's portrait for a quick explanation for their placement. There are two yellow tiers because both rows are of about equal importance. The last two tiers are ordered by fighter number; all other tiers are ordered by my "comfort," left > right.

Note that, again, I only play/have played Ultimate. Banjo & Kazooie alone in the top tier are for reference as my uncontested best fighter. (Enderman/Steve may join them soon, though..!)

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
My ability to play one fighter stands far above my ability to play the rest.
I play these fighters on a semi-regular basis (except for Enderman/Steve) with a respectable amount of skill.
I have plans!!! If all goes well, I will one day be poppin' off with these fighters, just like those in the tiers above them.
Purely casual picks that I'm fairly decent with.
I can play these fighters, but I never pick them unless asked.
I've picked 'em up once or twice, but the interest just isn't there.
Never touched these fighters, for one reason or another.
Haven't purchased these fighters, also for one reason or another.

My playstyle (how to beat me)

“	W-wow, Kris! Your passion is amazing!!	”
—Ralsei, after being told "gaming is my life" by the player, DELTARUNE

My biggest weakness is how slowly I tend to think things through. Even if I have something memorized, I'll second-guess the crap outta myself before going through with whatever it may be, if my opponent hasn't knocked me off the stage yet. Simply put, I don't allocate my brainpower well. That's why I'm so lucky to have a main that's well suited to me: Banjo & Kazooie, for a variety of reasons, aren't easily punished for slow thinking. They can escape light pressure easily, can camp and spam when I need time to think, and alongside being nice and heavy, they have one of the best recoveries in the game in case I make a careless mistake. However, don't dismiss me as another annoying "Banjo main." Nothing could be farther from the truth.

I'M AN ANNOYING KAZOOIE MAIN!!! HAHA GET REKT LOSERS!!!!1!!! TAKE THESE GRENADE EGGS TO THE FACE!!! FIFTEEN WONDERWINGS A GAME BAYBEE!!! BACK-AIR YOU TO HADES, SUCKERS!!!!!!!1!!!

Sorry, the negative connotation that the term "Banjo main" has really makes me sick. You don't have to play the duo campy and spammy, although it takes some work to get a "hype" playstyle down with them. Also, this term completely ignores an entire character - and the one actually responsible for the entire bloody moveset, at that. (And adding to the irony is the fact that Kazooie is directly responsible for the fighter's "annoying" qualities.)

And anyway, that was a joke. Actually, I have a more mindgame-oriented approach to playing with the duo than most of my peers. Obviously, if an opponent is leaving themself wide open, I'll go in for a powerful attack, but usually, baiting and punishing pretty much sums up my entire gameplan - that is, when I'm not facing someone insanely light on their feet and hungry for combos. Again, I can't think fast enough to counter that, so I end up in a more defensive and, well, annoying stance in those matches. Also, it's worth pointing out that I instinctually prioritize melee, up-close options when possible, and with the bird 'n bear, that's not always a good thing. But it's not like I don't know any combos or rushdown tactics with them! Ever heard of drag-down neutral aerial into rapid jab? Drag-down back aerial into forward tilt? Down special into down special into down special into back aerial? Down throw into pretty much anything? Forward aerial that kills at 90%? Back aerial against the bottom of Final Destination? Neutral aerial offstage? Seriously, why is no-one talking about Kazooie's neutral and back aerials? They're INSANE!

HOWEVER, with all that being said, it should be noted that as of my latest userpage edit I am not actively playing Banjo & Kazooie outside of super-serious matches. Until further notice I'm actually devoting my playtime to bringing up Enderman as a strong secondary. After all, I love the Minecraft franchise almost as much as I love the Banjo-Kazooie franchise, and everyone's gotta have at least one main that's widely considered competitively viable, right? Anyway, my Endergame is looking very promising already, with my win ratio with him almost as good as my B&K's ratio after only having played the former for half the amount of time I've played the latter. Ironically, despite being much lighter than my beloved duo, my Enderman tends to approach and mash at close-range a lot more than said duo, and it still works out because his normals are so safe on shield! (If Mr. Sakurai wants a balanced game, he really should nerf back aerial, but I'm not complaining...) Additionally, as time has progressed, I've discovered quirks and reliable setups that allow me to bypass the inherent weaknesses of playing a "glass cannon" with my slow brain, such as the stupid Minecart grab into magma block. However, I can't quite give you a complete guide to my Enderplaystyle quite like I can with the bear and bird, since I'm still learning to play this guy - my preferred options change on a regular basis.

So, in summary, I'm the the least toxic player in the world of the only all-rounder that's considered to be an inherently toxic zoner, and the most toxic player in the world of the only zoner who isn't considered to be inherently toxic. (Don't worry, it took my brother a few tries to understand it, too; it does make sense, trust me.)

You wanted to hear about my other two fighters? To be honest, I don't have much to say about them. As noted in the infobox at the top of the page, I usually abuse King K. Rool's "tank" attributes and go all-out on my opponent with him - I can't pick a legitimately clever option in neutral to save my life. Min Min has the exact opposite problem; I know exactly what I should be doing at all times (you're going to have to take my word for it), but my grasp on her control scheme is not nearly what it should be, and I'm not such a big fan of her to the point that I'll dedicate months to studying her, like I am with Enderman. Buuuuuut that doesn't really matter, since she's broken and her back throw to side smash KO confirm works on everyone at every percentage.

• Complete /Kazooie (SSB?) and /Yooka & Laylee (SSB?) (create "Attributes" sections)
• Greatly improve the "Attributes" and "Moveset" sections of /Gruntilda (SSB?) to be more accurate to actual fighter pages, and more descriptive
• Upload SamEndermanIcon(SSBU).png because yes
• Update File:YookaLayleeSymbol.svg to feature a Quill instead
