| | '''Daniel Kish''', also known as '''KishCubed''', was an Indiana [[Sheik]] player. His first tournament was in St. Louis, where he immediately made an impact by getting second place over already respected smashers [[Joshu]], [[Ignatius]], and [[Snex]]. He was generally considered the best member of the [[Ship of Fools]], except for the occasional loss to KishSquared. |

| '''KishCubed''' (August 16th, 1985 – January 15th, 2005), was a {{SSBM|Sheik}} player from Indiana. His first tournament was in St. Louis, where he immediately made an impact by getting second place over already respected smashers {{Sm|Joshu}}, {{Sm|Ignatius}}, and {{Sm|Snex}}. He was generally considered the best member of the [[Ship of Fools]], except for the occasional loss to {{Sm|KishSquared}}.
| | Even as KishCubed went through open heart surgery and a heart transplant, his tournament career continued to flourish, often taking Top 3 prizes until his final tournament at [[Flame of Bowser]] 3, where he placed 1st, going 2-0 the whole tournament against such players as [[DieSuperFly]], [[Eddie]], and [[Drephen]]. |

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *KishCubed once went on a quest to eliminate all avatars on [[Smashboards]], with {{Sm|Darkrain}} in particular being one such person to have been affected. However, since Darkrain didn't have an avatar to remove from, Cubed was crestfallen and gave up on his pursuit.
| |
| **The night before {{Trn|MELEE-FC1}}, {{Sm|Ken}} insisted his {{SSBM|Luigi}} could not be defeated, with Cubed ending up defeating Ken and told him to change his avatar to {{Sm|Azen}}'s. Despite Ken's shock, he followed along and did so for a month.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/ajhdod/origins_of_jv_stocking/|title=KishCubed's avatar elimination quest}}</ref>
