Stephen Myers, who goes by the alias of “Sandstorm” is a professional player. Sandstorm was born on February 03, 2002, in Pennsylvania, United States. He began playing Brawlhalla competitively in 2017 and has since become one of the most dominant players in the community. He might have secured his spot among the top players of Brawlhalla today but back in 2017, he was very new. Despite that, Sandstorm had the ultimate potential for climbing to the top.

Before joining Brawlhalla professionally, He was known for playing Geometry Dash. It is the reason that he goes by the name of GDSandstorm on his social media. Before gaining fame in Brawlhalla, he gained recognition in the Geometry Dash community for his skill in conquering extremely challenging levels.

Sandstorm became a part of the Wildcard Gaming eSports organization on January 21st, 2019, and remained associated with them until January 7th, 2020. Subsequently, he and his 2v2 teammate Boomie joined the eSports organization Tempo Storm on January 21st, 2020, where they played until January 20th, 2021.

Sandstorm Brawlhalla decided to take a break from competitive play after the Winter Championship in 2022. However, he participated in the Mid-season Championship LAN later that year. In this event, he declared that he would be retiring from Brawlhalla competitive play. However, he announced his comeback in 2023 on November 11, 2022.

Sandstorm’s In-Game Controls

Almost every fan who follows a professional player becomes quite interested in knowing their in-game settings. Not just the in-game settings but a lot of these fans also want to know the in-game controls of that specific professional player. This is the reason that I have included Sandstorm’s in-game controls in this guide.

According to Cosolix on Youtube, Sandstorm’s Brawlhalla Controls are pretty much the same as the default controls. However, a lot of players do not feel comfortable with the default keys. So, you don’t need to be using the same controls as Sandstorm if you are a huge Sandstorm fan. I believe that every player should follow the key binds with which they feel comfortable.
