Octane’s Stim Tactical Ability gives players a 30% speed increase, but it requires health to use and, like Bloodhound’s Ultimate, it’s noisy. Contrast this to Bangalore who can move more quickly when taking damage and doesn’t make additional noise leveraging this ability. Typically, a Bangalore can also hide their exact whereabouts in smoke for an added layer of protection. And, while Octane’s on-demand speed boost can be useful in situations, such as getting loot at the start of the game, the 10% health reduction may not be worth it to the average player—particularly when players can use Pathfinder’s grapple for similar purposes while taking no health l

Players looking to take fights early in the game should run this comp. Lifeline and Conduit can replenish the team's shields and health. Ballistic can take point as his revamped kit will serve those with a knack for gunfights better. On that note, Ballistic’s smart bullet deals slightly more damage. More notably, his Sling weapon now levels up with a player’s shi

This squad is all about smoke. Caustic creates smoke that hampers enemies' vision, damages their health despite their shield condition, and slows them down when inside a building. Bangalore has her own smoke capabilities that create a veritable blanket of smoke no one can see through. Making matters more interesting, Apex Legends has removed the Digital Threat optic from ground loot. As such, the only real counter to Bangalore’s smoke is using a recon legend, like Bloodhound or Cry

Each legend in this comp wears multiple hats. Pathfinder, for instance, can scan for zones as well as enemies. Alter can bait enemies into taking her Tactical or Ultimate and Loba can craft banners, ensuring no player is left beh

Some of these rumors include the idea that Bloodhound is super rich and is simply bored with life while others think they're a bloodthirsty murderer. There's also a crazy rumor that they're a half-bat, and another that suggests the lack of identity is due to them being a former sl

If you were to design your dream character for a sort of Hunger Games event, Bloodhound would check most if not all of the boxes on your wishlist. Most people dislike dynasties, so it's likely Bloodhound is losing fans, but gaining bandwagon follow

One assumes that there are always projects like new Legends in development, however given that we have only seen two DLC characters added since the launch of the game earlier this year, it does seem like a rather long list. Below is a mock-up of what a roster could look like in the near future, and a list of every datamined Leg

A few months ago, additional backpack space would not have been a big deal, but the recent nerfs to shotgun ammunition capacity would have people eyeing this Legend carefully. The ability to find nearby loot is always going to be valuable as well, and Nomad would likely earn a spot in competitive squads quite eas

This Legend standouts for the sheer amount of camping potential that could come from using them properly. This seems counterintuitive in terms of Legend design, Headshot Changes at least from the perspective of offering compelling and exciting esports coverage. Imaging a full map of teams doing nothing but camping and waiting for everyone else to make the first move. Not exactly riveting st

This Legend is the stuff of nightmares. Area denial and the constant threat of being firebombed would drastically shift the meta, likely demanding that mobility take a front seat in selecting characters. This Legend had better come with a skin for The Trashcan

One of the main things these characters have in common is that their abilities frequently give away their exact locations at range, either through sound or visual cues. Contrast that with characters like Wraith or Bangalore, whose abilities serve to obscure their locations, and it’s easy to see why the characters outlined above are inferior choi

When people first hear about Apex Legends , they most likely assume it's a game about characters shooting guns, and though that isn't an incorrect assumption, Respawn Entertainment has crafted a gameplay experience with a lot more depth than that. A primary example of that depth is the healer legend Lifel

A potential leak through datamining has revealed what Apex Legends may look like in the future, with new abilities and a number of Legend characters. These may be old concepts that have not been developed, or they may be far al
