Amazing art by Magnum
Approved by UU moderation & inspired by Feliburn's project
OP & Art ripped from Moutemoute's
Welcome to the first of many "UU Player Interviews", a project where you'll be able to discover or re-discover some well-known players in the UU community. Those people may be known thanks to their high-skilled level, their achievements on the strategic scene, or thanks to their dedication to the tier or within the community.

To start off, how are you?
I’m pretty good thank you! Just woke up from a solid good nights rest and a good breakfast, how about you?
Great! What did you have for breakfast?
Just some cereal, nothing too fancy haha
Cereal is good! So Magnum, tell me a little bit about yourself.
My name is Magnum and I’m an avid UU contributor, participating in a wide range of projects and threads as well as hosting my own like the Team Bazaar and Matchmaking! I'm also a member of the VR team and a voice in the ps room, so either people are making mistakes with their decisions or I’m somewhat capable. As for myself in real life, I’m a 16 year old Australian male who’s planning to dive into the film industry once I leave school!
That's interesting. What inspired you to go into film?
It’s something I’ve wanted to do as long as I can remember, which realistically is probably when I was 5 or 6 years old. I just found it incredibly fascinating as a child and I still enjoy doing it! Also just being able to entertain people and make people smile, that’s something that’s important to me.
That's a noble reason for wanting to choose a career. Now, you're a member of the teambuilding lab as well, correct? Would you care to share some of your tips for teambuilding?
Sure thing! In all honesty, my biggest reference for teambuilding comes from analysis. While they normally go underlooked by the majority of users, they give you some really solid information to base your team around, even just looking up what a particular Pokémon works well with for reference can be helpful! aside from that, you shouldn’t be afraid of optimizing EV spreads or playing around with different coverage moves to suit your teams needs, these minor things can make a huge difference!
That's interesting advice, I may apply it! Before we end, is there anybody you want to give a quick shoutout to?
Okay, well, I’d like to start with two of the people I’m very close to on the site, Bandkrook and ausma. You two have helped me incredibly on my journey and area one of the kindest, caring, supportive people I know and I love you both very much. Next would be Lilburr for giving me so many opportunities to be where I am today and also being an incredibly encouraging person, so thank you! I also want to say thank you to all my friends and family (ily Juno) who’ve talked and helped me over the last 8 months, I value you all greatly. That should be everyone! I had to group a lot of people together in that last point otherwise this would have gone on for a long time.
Thanks for taking the time to do this interview with me!
No problem! Have a good night!
