The list is Halo-heavy, which matches his competitive history: his first local tournament at age 4 was a New York Halo event, and his best-known results come from Halo competitions.

Controller settings

  • Sensitivity: 4–10
  • Button layout: Bumper Jumper
  • Inversion: Non-inverted

If you want to try the same setup, the practical steps are:

  1. Open your Xbox controller settings for the game you're playing.
  2. Set look sensitivity within the 4–10 range and adjust to taste — the page gives a range, not a single fixed number.
  3. Switch the button layout to Bumper Jumper (jump mapped to a bumper instead of a face button).
  4. Confirm the vertical look axis is set to non-inverted.

Expected result: your aim and jump inputs match the configuration LiL Poison is documented as using. The main snag is that Bumper Jumper changes muscle memory, so expect an adjustment period before it feels natural.
