Eric Wrona, AKA Snip3down, currently plays the flex role for Team Solo Mid in Apex Legends.
Snip3down is one of the most decorated and longest-lasting ESPORTS Pros competing in First Person Shooters. He began his career playing Halo and went on to rack up multiple tournament wins and championships.

Now playing Apex Legends for Team Solo Mid, he’s looking to write the next chapter in his legacy.

Snip3down lives with his wife Yasmin in Las Vegas, NV. They live just a short walk from TSM team members ImperialHal and Reps in order to build team chemistry outside the game.

This monitor shines as the portal into your FPS adventures with a gorgeous panel and outstanding mechanical design.

You can get one for a reasonable price. Do it, it will change your game!

PC

Lenovo Legion Desktop

Lenovo committed to Apex Legends big time by becoming their title sponsor. If you’ve ever watched the Apex Legends Online Global Series, you’ve certainly seen many ads for their Legion line of gaming desktops and laptops.

The legion 7i desktop model represents their esports tier offering from 2019. From Lenovo, you can expect a quality build, solid components, reasonable pricing, and good customer support. Lenovo mass produces pro-quality esports-capable machines that can compete with much more expensive boutique gaming PCs.

Snip3downs Lenovo Legion 7i Desktop Includes:

• i9-10850K
• Nvidia RTX 3090
• 32GB RAM

GPU

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Founders Edition Graphics Card

The NVIDIA RTX 3090 is currently the fastest GPU on the market. In a game like Apex Legends, where milliseconds can be the difference between winning a championship or just another death box, you definitely want to invest in this aspect of your build. Snip3down counts on his superior frame rates to put his crosshairs on the enemy in every frame. At the highest levels of competition, if you don’t have the best gear, you’re at a disadvantage. Better to spend more upfront, allowing you to focus on your skill, instead of wondering, “If I had a higher frame rate and lower latency, would I have won that fight?”

CPU

Intel Core i9-10850K Desktop Processor 10 Cores up to 5.2 GHz

While having high frame rates depends more on your GPU, you still want a CPU that can handle the load. Especially if you plan on editing videos, creating thumbnails, or plan to stream from your gaming PC. Extra cores allow you to run multiple processes without slowing down your gaming experience or affecting your framerates.

Peripherals – Controller

SCUF Prestige Custom Performance Controller

Snip3down’s controller of choice comes from SCUF gaming, which ups his game with the inclusion of custom back paddles that are remappable to any control. Being the only controller player on TSM FTX, Snip3down shines in close combat with SMGs (the Prowler being his favorite) as well as shotguns.

The smooth, editable response curve allows Snip3down to dial in his aim to perfection. To be sure, teams are on notice when they see Snip3down in the kill feed and desperately try to find out TSM’s location before they become the next victim.

Peripherals – Earbuds

Bose SoundSport in-ear headphones

While these earbuds are expensive, they allow Snip3down to directionally hone in on his enemy’s footsteps and gunfire, giving him the edge when he’s on the hunt. A lot of novice gamers underappreciated the value gained from audio cues, but once you incorporating sound cues into your gameplay, it will unlock a new level of proficiency.
