Formerly a cpm player in Quake 3, Andreas "Andeh" Wahl was convinced by his friend Sweden LocKtar, whom he had known essentially since birth, to play QuakeWorld instead of Quake 3 in the mid to late 2000s. Reluctantly, he tried the game on LocKtar's request and LocKtar ended up destroying him on dm4 by a score of ~60-0. Demoralized as he was, Andeh still recognized the beauty and depth of the game by analyzing what LocKtar did in order to win and decided to start his grind to become a good player.

While first aspiring to follow LocKtar's footsteps and becoming one of the greats in 1on1, Andeh eventually came to prefer 4on4 over all other game modes, citing the incredible depth of strategy and potential of QuakeWorld 4on4.

After quickly gaining skill as a newcomer to QuakeWorld and making friends with other Swedish players, most notably Sweden bps and Sweden Trash, Andeh was invited to join team Sweden Suddendeath in late 2008.

In 2012, the QuakeWorld scene lacked commentators and streams for its official tournament games. Andeh, not afraid to speak in front of crowds of people, took the job upon himself to try and provide the best coverage QuakeWorld could get and as a member of team Sweden Suddendeath, he founded the channel SuddenDeathTV.

He has since appeared in many ArenaFPS-related projects outside of SuddendeathTV, such as TastyspleenTV, Organ Grinder, DOOMBRINGER, QHLAN and QuakeCon, providing everything from commentary and hosting to producing and organizing.

During the covid-19 years, Andeh also picked up interest in development of QuakeWorld which led him to start - and fund - the entire development of an improved QuakeWorld netcode that allows for a more seemless transition from low-ping play to high-ping play, and helping transatlantic games be much less painful than they were in the past.

To this day, Andeh remains a keen personality, talent, and player, within the QuakeWorld community.
