If you had to introduce yourself in three sentences to some SoulCalibur player who didn’t know you, what would you say?

Aggressive as f*ck
Funny
Unpredictable

What is the origin or meaning of your nickname?

It was a nickname from a long time ago created by my brother and the original nickname was Fanlee, we was so fan of Bruce Lee and he took inspiration of his name and created the nickname, also the character that I play has a lot of inspiration too of Bruce Lee. He also played the same character that I play myself so I’m like my brother’s legacy.

How did it happen that you ended up playing fighting games?

When I was a kid, my two big brothers have always played fighting games and I was always curious about it until the day they let me take a controller and play against them.
Competitively I have really started with Soulcalibur 6, my brother came third in a national Soulcalibur V tournament in Spain, I admired his way of playing a lot and I promised myself that I would surpass him and put my own name at the top, and that I would be in the top players of Maxi and of players in general, and I am happy to be achieving what I promised.
My brothers main characters was Mitsurugi and Maxi.

Who do you main in SC6 and why?

The most handsome and stylish character, Maxi.
Since SC2 I used Maxi, it’s my main for what I comment above, I love Bruce Lee, also the Wataaa screams! His speed, the incredible combos, his incredible story and design seem practically perfect to me. In any game which has these things, I will main that character.

What is your opinion regarding SC6?

I’m very happy that we had another Soulcalibur. It exceeded my expectations and it is a game that I really enjoy playing with friends and competitively. I think Soulcalibur VI is a very good game in all aspects, especially visually, I really like how the characters look.

If you could change one single thing about SC6 what would that be?

I would really change a couple of things, but what if I would prioritize would be the connection, we have been doing tournaments online for a year and the game really is very unstable with the connection and you cannot fully enjoy it as I would like. Among other things the track movements 🙂

What do you consider to be your greatest SC6 achievement and why?

The greatest achievement competitively has been to win the EVO 2021, it was a rush of adrenaline and excitement to see me how far I have come, but above all my greatest achievement has been to see my evolution as a player and how much I feel that I have improved, and what it still to improve.

Please answer a single question that you were not asked but you would like to answer!

Which character you would like to be back:
Li Long and for 100% Natsu!!!!! I love this character I really want her to be back but I’m sure will not happen, at least in SCVI 🙂

Thank you for the interview!
