Alex Anderson

Alex Anderson was one of the fastest-rising newcomers to The Elite when he arrived in 2004.

Goldeneye

In less than a year, Alex reached the Top 10 in Goldeneye, achieving several amazing World Records along the way. His activity may have waned from wheen he peaked in 5th place, but his skill certainly has not as he still plays occasionally to fulfil some unfinished personal goals. He was one of the first players to have proven all 60 PRs, and has many videos depicting easier strategies, which have been very helpful to newer players.

Alex developed a better route on Frigate Secret Agent and used a strat to manually open the double doors on Archives that have helped with lowering the existing World Records. When he tied Bunker 2 Agent 0:24 it was the longest standing untied at the time. He

In addition to Goldeneye, Alex had a brief Perfect Dark career that saw him enter the Top 100 and pick up the Defection Agent WR.

StarCraft

Alex has also held the title of Elite StarCraft Champion since August of 2004 (despite a number of retirements). He started playing StarCraft in Grade 11 of High School when he was 16 and competed on and off for pretty much the next six years until his final retirement in December 2007. During his active period he went undefeated against all Elite competition - very decisive wins.

Outside the Elite Alex played competitively, achieving 2nd in the provincial LAN and was asked to play for the Canadian B team a few times. He was a random player, with zerg as his best, and would be ranked around B+ PGT.

Misc

Alex spends as much time with his girlfriend as he can, and tries to live a more balanced life than just games these days. The infamous party lifestyle is now gone. Musically he likes Billy Talent, Bullet for my valentine and Electronic Music. He plays Guitar Hero and the occasional RPG for fun, but focuses mostly on playing Runescape.
