I've played Stalcraft for over 8,000 hours on the NA server, mostly in high-tier competitive subdivisions. During that time, I spent a lot of my own time figuring out how to get the most out of my gear. I used my background in software engineering to build Stalcraft Meta, turning those calculations into tools others can use. You can find me on Reddit, YouTube, Twitch, or the official Discord (milkdud.).
