Axel submitted his first times in [[Perfect Dark]] in March of 2010 and had actually never played PD before then. He has since achieved a decent amount of times enough to place him 18th on the [http://rankings.the-elite.net/perfect-dark World Rankings], his point-peak being 4665.

One of Axel's favorite levels used to be [[Mr. Blonde's Revenge]] (before [[Trent]] came up with the [[Defection]]-like strat) and he even managed to secure a leaderboard position (7th, to be exact) on that stage, despite barely being in the Top 100 at the time. On April 28th 2015, Axel obtained his first untied WR in Normal Mode in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_rwyP0q1K0 MBR PA 1:22] and was briefly ranked 1st on that stage, having swept it with the-then WRs 1:10/1:13/1:22. Axel also earned himself a sweep on [[Duel]] in October 2013 and later appeared on the [[Escape]] and [[Pelagic II]] leaderboards. Axel considers [[Extraction]], one of his better levels, to be his favorite level in either game.

Axel is the pioneer of 100% runs and held the original [[World Record]] of 1:23:11 achieved on July 2nd, 2008, years before 100% runs became a phenomenon with twitch and streams. He was also the first to use the "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pi_Ti4RDYUo Depot 00A Pause Strat]" which has been used by other players since. One of his last GE PRs, [[Aztec]] SA [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsyJMV_zNlQ 1:39], saw Axel use the Agent guard lure, another strat first executed by him. It remains the fastest time achieved with a grenade used in the exhaust bay, though other top players has since used a modified strat of the infamous Agent glass lure; [[Rayan Isran]] even untied it with [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYnW6yKm--U 1:34].
