Aaron's main character is [[Marth (SSBM)|Marth]], but he has been known to play [[Young Link (SSBM)|Young Link]] if he feels so inclined.  He will usually team with Alex "Ax" Schumacher (a [[Roy]] player).  When playing as [[Marth]], his job is to put damage on the other team and set up kills from [[Roy]]'s power moves, while also [[edgeguarding]] and spiking as appropriate.  When Ax plays [[Link]] Kirschner will use [[Young Link]] and flip roles.  As [[Young Link]], he uses the Dair as his primary move and has developed impeccable aim with it. Also, he will play [[Mr. Game & Watch]] when the [[SLAPAHO]] team is playing in [[Hyrule Temple]] and his partner is playing [[Samus]].  Here, the team makes good use of the [[Oil Panic]] attack (both [[The kamikaze glitch|glitch]] and normal).

When playing singles, Kirschner will use [[Marth]] in almost every situation.  He is a very opportunistic player, making good use of Marth's [[counter]] until his opponent reveals an opening.  He is also relentless with Marth's [[spike]].  His tertiary move is a combo invloving Marth's back throw into a forward smash, often followed by a spike.
