Who is Evan Verhulst?

In the world of Twitch streaming, it is extremely hard to crack into the upper echelon of gamers; even seasoned veterans find it hard to make it to the top. However, in the case of one young Apex Legends playing star, that isn’t the case. 

Enter Apex Legends teenage sensation Evan Verhulst. Evan is a nineteen-year-old streamer who has been tearing up the land of Apex since he stepped onto the scene. 

Initially signed up to ESA gaming, he switched to Team Solo Mid at the very end of 2021. 

He terrorizes people under the alias of Verhulst, bringing pride to his real last name, a commendable act if we don’t say so ourselves.

Gameplay Settings

As far as gameplay settings go, Verhulst has pretty regular gameplay settings. One thing you will notice when seeing the settings of Verhulst or any top streamer is that they will always have an option between “Toggle” and “Hold” as the latter, e.g. Jetpack Control.

Movement / Aiming

Verhulst does not use Advanced Look Controls, i.e., ALC. Though you can adjust how you look and move quite a bit, Verhulst prefers the standard settings as most people do.

Video Settings

Even as a streamer, Verhulst puts his performance above all else. As such, he does not play the game at high graphics settings. He does not keep the screen too bright as it affects visibility when he suffers sudden attacks, especially flash/stun grenades.

Audio Settings

Standard audio settings, although having the master volume at 25% might be low for some people. However, with a pair of high-quality headphones, 25% is much more effective than it sounds, and Verhulst has found a sweet spot for it.

Conclusion

Evan Verhulst is one of the best Apex Legends players in the world. At the ripe old age of 19, you can make a safe bet that he will only get better with time. Although he may not have the biggest following yet, it’s only a matter of time before this kid becomes a household name
