He’s been following the fighting game community for some time, but is getting his first taste of participation here at Apex 2013. But don’t write this low-tier hero off yet; there’s a good reason he’s known as “The Destroyer” at the ScrewAttack HQ. and it may or may not be because he breaks everything he touches.

As a giant fan of E-sports Sam keeps track of as many competitive gaming scenes as he can keep his eyes on. Having played in local Brawl tournaments before, Sam is looking forward to competing in Apex this year and will be live streaming training sessions every Tuesday and Thursday night at 7pm CST at twitch.tv/screwattack.

Because top tiers are for suckers!
