That's it, he's leaving Apex for Halo. Supposedly getting replaced by Verhulst of Team Intel.

Hopefully all the MnK players who seem to revere Snipedown as some sort of Oracle, claiming he's a "good controller player", however that's possible when he's playing with AA on and thus isn't even aiming himself, will now post Snipedown videos on a Halo forum instead.
@CCbathwateris your keyboard bigger than your table?
@CCbathwaterGz mate i also have a guitar doesnt mean i can use it...
But lets be real here, you do realise that you take half of the MnK device wich means just 1 hand vs a whole controller that you use with 2 hands?
So for the sake of your weird comparison lets ignore the right hand and mouse...
i have a ps controller here and i count 16 buttons if we count start/select and theese bumper thingys as mapable buttons aswell. That my friend is very grim and low for 2 hand usage... you actually need 2 hands to reach them all lol.
Now lets take a keyboard and for the sake of the comparison lets asume a small hand, you are at atleast 24 buttons that are all easy to reach...If we now use a normal sized hand... you are at atleast 35, that is ofc without any strg or shift + something combinations...
With mouse on top it gets even worse, i mean there is a reason why controllerplayers cry about all kind of movement techs they cant do or are to hard to do lol...
Btw if you really think a Keyboard is cumbersome and clumy, you might check out for fun how much avg apm a SC2 pro reaches and keeps up the whole match ๐
""Turn on the annual Major League Gaming tournaments and you see a different class of player. Watching professionals will quickly make you realize competitive e-sports players can perform 300 APM at any given time. And, during particularly intensive battles, their numbers can go up to 600. That's 10 actions every second. In these instances player hands become a blur, their keyboards emit a whirring hum""
Just a quick statement for you wich you ofc can check online, there are a crapton of clips over the shoulder where you see how 400+ apm looks like
Funfact btw, my gf has a razer naga mouse wich has 17 buttons...2 more if we count mousewheel up and down
@RevMainPlsYes, I need two hands to reach them all. I'm not vxin. Haven't had a lifetime of practice playing one-handed controller. Must say he's amazing though, pred lvl, playing controller Apex with only one hand makes you go "I've got two hands and he's still better, I should just quit now".
Nah, I don't think it would be much fun going through such clips. Watching the Caps game from last night anyway + migraine. But I'm sure it's impressive.
@BaldWraithSimpNot really. Last I used a keyboard was for a video of "One Man And His Droid", only uses five keys, but moving with the arrow keys was so sluggish that I almost had to stop and go buy a joystick.
@EREGDSOkay. Well, that's nice. I usually watch someone who has good gameplay, makes me giggle, and engages with their community. I don't usually base my streamer/pro top 10 on their choice of mouse pad or if they use a Xbox or PS controller. I don't really feel Team TDG's gameplay would be more or less exciting if I knew which mouse pad GuhRL uses in ALGS.
Snipedown left Apex for this!?!? It looks as lame as Battlefront, and this doesn't even have a John Williams score. Well, the new Battlefront games, the 2004 original was awesome. Halo ๐คจ Silly vehicle bs game.
I love how a even thread about a pro leaving the scene automatically turns into a 5 page circle jerk about controller vs. mnk. Keep on keeping on, fellow forumites.
