Welcome to Entropiq. Please give us a brief introduction of yourself.

Hi I am Akima Michael “Fully” Byron and I am a professional FIFA player for Entropiq, I’ve been a professional for 4 years now.

‍

What's your gaming background? Have sports games -- and FIFA especially -- always attracted you or did you start with other games?

Tbh I’ve played every game under the sun, before FIFA I used to play Pokemon quite competitively, then I moved on to fighting games such as Street Fighter 4 and so on. I also play shooting games such as Call of Duty, Resistance etc., but I’ve always enjoyed FIFA because I do enjoy football.

‍

When did you start taking esports seriously?

I started taking FIFA seriously at the start of 17 where I decided I wanna go pro.

‍

How did you come up with your nickname?

My nickname is kinda like one that just stuck with me, it’s like a London term.

‍

Tell us about your esports accomplishments. Which of them do you value the most?

Over the 4 years of competing, I’ve qualified for so many events and been to so many places. For me qualifying to the Madrid regionals my first event ever in 17 was a great feeling.

‍

What do you think of FIFA21? Can you compare it with the previous editions?

This year I really enjoy FIFA, I like it. FIFA 20 was the worst for me to be honest.

‍

How many hours per day do you practice?

It varies. I don’t like to put a limit on things but roughly maybe 5 hours sometimes 10.

‍

What does your practice entail? Do you focus only on playing or do you study tactics and opponents as well.

I play games and then depending on how I felt in the game I record them an analyse them for example. I play a game and it finishes 0-0 I look why didn’t I score? And also what things did I do well in defence.

‍

What are your main goals for this season, both short- and long-term? To be the #1-ranked player in the world?

Long-term goal is to make the playoffs and fight for a FEWC spot and short-term goal is to improve myself everyday even just a little bit.

‍

What is your favourite football team?

I’m more of a football fan to be hella honest, however it would be Barcelona

‍

Have you ever played football for any team? Or just for fun?

I used to play football very seriously. I was accepted in the Boremhamwood center of excellence but I turned it down due to how far it was from my home.

‍

Now you've joined Entropiq, a Czech esports team. Do you know any Czech football teams (don’t use Google)?

Hmm I know Redstar Belgrade is that Czech (it isn’t – editorial note) and Sparta Praha.
