| Summary: | |||
| Arguably the best pure Sheik main, KirbyKaze sits comfortably in a top ten position. Placing top 8 or better in every tournament for the past three years and holding the title of best Canadian player, KirbyKaze has proven time and time again that even U.S.A.’s best aren’t safe from him. His spacing, tech chases and punish game are near perfect. He is also known for popularizing the “Dynasty” combo, a series of moves culminating in the strongest part of Sheik’s up-smash. Unlike many high level Sheik players, he does not opt to play as Fox in the Jigglypuff match-up, and is the only Sheik player to have taken a set from Hungrybox. | |||

Feel like I haven’t seen KK play as much lately though – anyone know why? Or maybe videos just aren’t being uploaded…
KirbyKaze sort of went into a hiatus because of personal issues.
Ooh okay. Thanks! I’d been hearing about him taking a set off HBox recently so I was wondering what was up with that.
I’ve been fixing some things that absolutely needed to be fixed. Gonna try to be more active in 2014 after winter though.
Ah, sorry to hear that. Glad you’re figuring things out though! I’m a Sheik main and I draw inspiration from your tech chases (and M2K’s gimps!! I’m still awaiting the day you beat M2K in a Sheik ditto :D)
