The Short Story

Michaelb


SMILEY-FACE

I'm michael99. I started to play SK May 31, 2011, about two days before the Snarbolax was released, so I can say I have a fair amount of experience with Spiral Knights. I have wandered up the ranks of the clockworks to he end of tier three. to the end of tier 3. And I'm awesome. And swaggy. Orange juice. :3

I like to fight Lord Vanaduke. I like to take fun screenies. And I really like to battle in player versus player(it's fun to fight people), and I REALLY like orange juice :D

I can also appear as Lummy-Wex.

I won third place as a runner-up in Tersakoff's fashion olympics and was Aquillion(a judge)'s favorite contestant.

The Long Story

Ok. So when I first started playing on... Lesse... May 31, 2011, I was very into the game, and I spent a lot of time in a huge mistake -- heating up my proto gear xD. Obviously I had no idea that there was a star system or anything, so I fully heated my proto gear and went to haven. Of course, most new players know nothing about getting support and the wiki or anything, so I didn't actually know that there were more weapons out there, or anything like it. I started off as a Swordie. I followed this path up to the point where I was ready to do Firestorm Citadel. Then I realized that swords are extremely mainstream and that they don't really work too well in EVERY situation. So I switched to bombing. Inevitable, I experienced difficulties crafting my bombs up and whatnot, there being a huge disadvantage to players who use low-star bombs for obvious reasons. It was around this point that I met most of my friends(Except Zenny), and I did my first FSC run with them. Naturally we died a lot and whatnot. Most friends went out and played different games around the time of the SL release, knowing that it was now very difficult to get further in the game without buying loads of CE. So I went, got bored, and met new people. One such person being Tersakoff. He has pretty much revolutionized a lot of my view of the game, so I am very grateful to him for introducing me to SK fashion. I now design and comment on costumes. I am in Valkyrie Knights, as stated before.
