A lover of video games through and through, his passion for games began at an early age when he fell in love The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. After honing his skills with years of practice, Martin competed at a semi-professional level in World of Warcraft, both in PvE and PvP. He now enjoys all things esports, from VALORANT and Counter-Strike to League of Legends and StarCraft II. A writer at heart, Martin majored in English Literature before finding that the best way to combine his two passions was to start writing about video games. Also happens to be a bit of a sucker for stats and traditional sports. Martin currently works as an editor and writer for Strafe Esports, while also writing for TheSpike when he has the chance.
