1)Please tell us your name and where it came from.
My real name is Sugiyama. I didn't have any plans on being famous and I had no clue about nicknames.
When I first met this one famous Akuma player named "ofc", I thought he was a Japanese guy born in some foreign country.

2)How many years have you been playing 3S?
I started when it first came out, but I don't know how many years that's been.

3)Where is your home arcade?
Shimura Newton. There are many people to play with, not to mention their motivations are always high.

4)Please tell us your first time playing 3S.
There were many strong SF2 players at my local arcade. I thought it would be fun playing against them,
but they were way too good so I just gave up on that. 3S was brand new at the time so I tried my best with that..with Ibuki.

5)Your main character and why you chose them
Necro. Chikyuu was the best Necro at the time, and a local player like me didn't even know his name.
One day, that Necro(Chikyuu) once did a neutral grab and combo'ed into st.MP. I tried it out and it worked.
The idea of something like "neutral throw->MP" was so ground-breaking to me, that I started having fun with him.

6)Players you respect?
- Nitto
One of a kind. A patient, strong and well-balanced player. I can still never forget the time when he
won 50 games at Nishi-Spo the day before the national tournament sponsored by G-up(Mester), and this was against
some of the best players around.
- Nuki
Charismatic. It's incredible how he manages to bring out the best in Chun. He doesn't just win by pushing with Chun,
but rather with his extensive knowledge of both Chun-Li and the 3S mechanics. He a 3S God that can also make any event
he goes to extremely hype.
- Xiao
I was playing both Ibuki and Necro at the time, but after I watched his beautiful playstyle I just quit Ibuki altogether.
I respect everything about him(except that he's an Idol Otaku).
- Mr. Matsuda
If there is someone else other than Nuki who deserves the title "3S God", it is him.
No other word comes to mind regarding him other than "respect".

7)Players you consider to be your rival?
I don't think there is any. I'm fine with playing against anyone who can make me better at 3rd Strike.
Anyone's fine, as long as that player doesn't make me worse at the game after playing them.

8)Players you currently have your sights set on?
Tamu, Ikeyama. Two Necros I feel excel at studying and practicing their stuff.
I don't have much experience playing Necro mirrors, so I'd love to play them once they get better.

9)Any memorable matches of yours?
When Mokomokofu beat me 10 games in a row during casuals.
He gave it to me bit by bit, at a time where I felt nothing but confidence against Ken.
It was nothing but the most damaging reversals. Nothing but despair.

10)If there is one thing you could change about 3rd Strike?
I feel that even one change would wreck the overall balance of this game,
and I'm having fun with this game as is so no changes are needed.
If anything, some sort of card system(like SF4/VF/Tekken) would be nice.

11)Self-analysis
If I get serious it's over,
If I get warmed up it's over.

12)What do you find interesting about 3S?
How it's hard to build a solid plan around your play.
Thanks to parrying, even if you're low on health, if you remain consistent with your movements 
you can make a comeback from any point in the match.

13)Will you keep playing 3S from this point on?
Yes, as long as other people are playing.

14)What are your tasks and goals down the line?
To be stronger than I was yesterday.

15)Last words?
I was down on my luck from being sick last year, but I never gave up my passion for 3S.
Now that I'm feeling better and able to play, I'm having tons of fun.
