Hey guys! Jolteon here with this week's AMA.

For those of you who don't know me, I'm a Brit and a part of the PMDev Team. I went to my first Melee tournament (Anarchy Rules) back in 2006 when I was 13 years old, but didn't really join the scene until 2008 when JP Brawl had released. My interest for PM grew with 2.0's release, the UK had been keeping tabs on its development for quite some time and we all decided to give it a shot, aiming to pick up new/revamped characters and develop an entirely new metagame. Needless to say, most of us loved it from the get-go and it became a staple of our bi-weekly series at the time. Since then, I've traveled to several tournaments across the world (Beast, Apex, TBH4 etc.) to compete in PM/Melee.

My interest for PM lead me to want to help further the development of the project in late 2012, and thus I applied as a playtester. Since joining, I have playtested various builds extensively, created character builds of my own and wrote blogposts. I am also a member of our internal balance committee, who help guide the rest of the team on hotly debated balance issues. My main character focuses have been Toon Link and Meta Knight, but I was also fairly involved in the development of 3.0 Game&Watch, 3.0 Roy, 3.0 Ivysaur and 2.6 Ike.

That should suffice as an intro, ask away!
