The Interview

• Have you ever left or rejoined?
  • “Yes, I tried to join again after KSI xKing 77 bought me Black Ops 4 and Black Desert Online from then on I knew this was were I wanted to be. I later had left and I rejoined in March 27th, 2019 a week before my 15th birthday but I had to leave due to my age.”
• What is your favorite part about being a Lieutenant?
  • “I like being someone that people see as their Mentor. I would rather see someone struggling and be able to help them than help myself.”
• Describe how you felt when you received your latest promotion to Lieutenant?
  • “I felt confused, because I didn’t realize I was noticed. It was very unexpected due to it being at the end of our squad meeting!”

  • “Currently I am not in any departments.”
• What do you consider to be your greatest accomplishment to date?
  • “It’s hard to pick just one thing but everything has been amazing!”

  • “At least a Captain or hopefully a General. I see the 7’s and how much work they put in and it just amazes me!”

  • “Friendly, caring, love to see others have fun and succeed, outgoing and persistent.”
• If you could change anything that youa??ve done in your KSI career, what would it be?
  • “To be starter about my decisions and listen more, take more advice that was given to me.”
• If you could change one thing in KSI today, what would it be?

  • “KSI Squeek 7, I would want to see what it would be like as a General.”
