Delphiki is an Ice Climbers player from Rancho Cordova, CA who recently helped give rise to the crew Nova Complex. He uses the monikers BEAN and DELF in play, with all three names stemming from the character of Julian Delphiki (not to be confused with J_DELPHIKI) in the parallel series of Ender's Shadow novels by Orson Scott Card. He is the younger brother of DRGN.
Characters
While he mains Ice Climbers and Pichu, he also occasionally uses Falco and Link.
His Climbers style relies heavily on desynching, and he in fact desynchs much more than most professional Ice Climber players. Once he was quoted as saying "I main Popo, but my secondary is Nana." He is also one of the top three NorCal Ice Climbers, the other two being choknater and Sidefx.
He has yet to make a name for himself in tournament play outside the Sacramento Area, but he is a regular attendant/organizer of local competitions. Also, he hosts and organizes both the Sacramento Biweeklies, and his own Delphiki Games. He attended NCT2 but did not make it past pools due to time constraints.
Vids
Delphiki's only videos to date, come from a Smashfest at TeamScape leader ender's house on November 11th, 2006. It is rumored that Delphiki aims to produce a combo video showcasing his Ice Climbers.

Contributions
Delphiki has written a guide on competitive smash play which focuses on the fluidity and nature of the metagame. It explains the nature of the metagame as related to characters, tournament rules, the community, and the individual player. Also, most tournaments in the Sacramento Community are organized or co-organized by Delphiki and TC1. These tournaments include the Delphiki Games, the Sacramento Biweeklies, and Tyde's Manly Smashfests [1], which feature Nova Complex and many other players in the Sacramento Area. Delphiki is also an adminstrator on Nealdt's Tia.
