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. It is a little known fact that Delphiki aims to be permitted into the Melee Back Room. He is also attempting to become a moderator on Smashboards.com.
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.
