Sniper

Founder and editor of XPFeed

19 years gaming. Immortal in Valorant, semi-pro in Call of Duty and top 100 in Spain on Fortnite. These days: LoL (ADC) and CS2.

People call me Sniper, and I've spent 19 years glued to a mouse and a controller. I started like almost everyone —playing whatever came along— and ended up taking it seriously: I competed at a semi-pro level in Call of Duty, hit the top 100 in Spain on Fortnite, and there was a stretch where I put in 10 hours of ranked a day in Valorant until I reached Immortal. These days I'm pickier: League of Legends as an ADC main and Counter-Strike 2, the two that still genuinely keep me hooked.

That mix of shooters, battle royale and MOBA is what's behind everything I write. I don't theorize: XPFeed's guides come from real hours in-game, from changing my config a thousand times and wrestling with every setting until I notice the difference on screen. If I tell you to drop your shadows or how to set up a mouse, it's because I've tested it on my own PC, not because I read it somewhere else.

I built XPFeed for a simple but real reason: I was tired of jumping between ten sites, apps and channels just to keep up with the basics —which match is next, which patch just dropped, which deal is actually worth it. I wanted one place where everything lived, sorted by the games I care about. Since it didn't exist the way I pictured it, I built it.

On the technical side I come from IT: I studied it and work in it, I code (in fact I write a good chunk of XPFeed myself) and I'm now getting into 2D and 3D design. That side is what keeps the site from being just content —it's a tool meant to be fast and to work well.
