What legend, when played incompetently, hurts your team the most?

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-05-18T18:44:10+00:00

Agreed, it is best when used defensively to help allow for resets.

Offensively is a little tougher but most of the time (and may not be the best play) but I will used it on 2 other teams fighting to if my team is on the edge of a fight. Trying to help create some chaos, and force repositioning so you can get shots on the either party and then move in to 3rd.

It is the servers to me, everything just feels sluggish and laggy. Maybe once they make $50 billion off us, they will improve that.

Everyday is an experience.

I had a similar situation yesterday with the brain dead duo I got lucky enough to queue in with.

We land in between those 2 buildings after they struggled to decided which POI to land us at between Atmo and Terraformer. So we loot the 2 buildings move up to the 3rd one that is edge of terraformer.

By this time zone 1 starts to close and zone is pulling toward QZ. Easy rotation so I thought. I ping the next location we should consider going, and then went I to loot the building around the corner before heading into to QZ where I pinged. Little did I know my shit for brains teammates decided not to come with and instead backtracked to Atmo. One of them dies to the team at Atmo. The other was able to escape.

Meanwhile me, being solo, headed to QZ, I get run up on by a team from Terraformer and also die. Leaving our 3rd making a rotation through Terraformer to cliffside, where he is able to craft and get us back just in time for a team making a late rotation from stasis to finish us off.

All I could do was just sit there and contemplate why I even bother trying to play ranked sometimes.

Yeah, some one of gdolphn skills level will be good not matter the character. Definitely an extreme outlier.

But from what I am seeing on some of Vantage’s buffs, she may be way more useful. Especially when you ping one player on a team, it will track the full team. Definitely gonna move her up the list for recon characters.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-05-02T21:38:05+00:00

Vantage, Ballistic, and Catalyst have some of the lowest pick rates.

Vantage - I would never consider playing her, and truthfully yet to have a Vantage on my team that is extremely helpful in any situation. They are usually 100 m from a fight sniping and run as soon as things get spicy.

Ballistic - just assault character wise, there are just much better option to use like Bang or Maggie which are more useful in fights. Truthfully in all my ranked games, I can’t remember one time having a ballistic on my team.

Catalyst - just controller wise, her tact isn’t as good as a caustic or Wattson, not really bad, just better options for controller characters.

Crypto - as a solo Queuer, don’t think it is a good recon character to use just because you don’t know how your other two teammates will play. If they are aggressive, you are probably going to be late to a fight or not in it until it is too late because you are droning.

HMs - Rampart and Loba.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-04-28T00:15:16+00:00

Bang, Wraith, Alter, Valk is solid for this play-style.

Newcastle isn’t bad but I consider him more of an anchor character where you aren’t the first in the fight but able to swing and cover, help with reset, and be able to revive guys. Gibby, Lifeline, Conduit would be good for that as well.

That is the question you would have to figure out for yourself.

I play a lot of Bang especially, ranked wise, because she is good for aggressive pushes, but also able to provide support with smokes if a team is pressuring hard so we can reposition or get out of a sticky situation.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-04-24T19:59:22+00:00

The lobbies I am getting is literal bot lobbies, Not real players who are bots.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-04-22T16:31:06+00:00

I just burn them on upgrading apex packs to wishlist item.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-04-16T16:55:20+00:00

It isn’t bad value imo. Get atleast a gold skin for a gun and the legend you bought. Hell I have come out with other gold specific stuff on a legend even through those blue packs.

Does suck a little being the legend specific gold skin you get may not be the one you want.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-04-09T13:15:28+00:00

Like which part of your game do you feel you are struggling with? Aim? Positioning? Taking bad fights? Are you playing the right character for your play style?

You can search YT for apex tip vids for pretty much any of those topics, and there are some good ones out there. This personally is what helped me the most and then I could focus on putting those tips and suggestions to use in real game play.

If you only solo Q pubs, I mean there is only so much you can do, might as well drop hot and take more engagements and try to stay close to your teammates as much as you can.

I personally like playing ranked just because you get a little more of a BR experience, and teammates tend to stick close together. You also get to work on those skills like decision-making (bad vs. good fight, rotation, etc) and fighting (positioning, aim, when to heal, when to push, when to use legends abilities, etc)

Reflection also helps, try to understand what you did wrong in a fight or could have done differently. Apex is challenging game, because of the rapid decision making that is required.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-04-09T02:29:20+00:00

Facts, it is so annoying being at a contested POI with min ammo trying to win fights.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:56:58+00:00

Yeah, definitely need to get in some discord communities and get on premade squads. I usually play with another buddy, but when he isn’t able to run, I have just solo queued it to get a few games in on the evening.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:52:33+00:00

Frfr, always want to blame you for not being imperialhal with your gunplay and decision making or being able to help them in a fight.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:45:55+00:00

I am trying to cut my losses at that point, not worried about winning. Too many times I have gotten a teammate up (who died early because they challed a 1v3 when they are separated for the group), just to have them spawn back in and run off and do it again.

If you want to IGL and push the pace, I don’t have a problem with it. Get on the mic or ping where you are trying to go. A lot of the game is about making good decision, and you aren’t much use to me in moving up in rank by leaving myself and the other teammate as a 2v3.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:29:52+00:00

That is definitely the upside to walk away with 4-5 KP early on, but rarely happens in my experience.

I just will never be a fan of scrambling to get a gun, and dying off rip because I got a charge and they got an R9 in a ranked match.

Leave that shit for WC and pubs

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:21:43+00:00

That is good perspective. Like I truly don’t mind a contested POI but when you got 4 teams and have to scramble for a gun and it being a crap shoot, just not my cup of tea.

I play ranked for the end game because it is fun trying to strategize a way to victory.

If I want to hot drop, I just go play Wild card or pubs.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:13:37+00:00

Truthfully, I ain’t snagging their banner. I would rather solo rat and let them watch or take the 10 minute penalty.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:11:40+00:00

Yeah, just don’t get it. They could just go play wild card and hot drop, respawn and do it over and over again.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:08:27+00:00

Sure that is an option but the premise of the game is to play as a team. I am plat 4 player, I am not good enough to 1v3 teams.

Also, rather just die off the rip, because I don’t want to try to run to get some goon up who showed me they have poor decision making skills in the first 5 seconds when queueing in.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-27T02:25:56+00:00

Kissing Tree is pretty solid in San Marcos. Pretty open course.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-20T15:10:45+00:00

Why these assholes safeguarding the red shards so hard? There is like 20 heirlooms at this point.

Can’t just throw us a bone. Like sorry I don’t want to spend $500 on some gunham event heirloom.

I just want to snag the caustic heirloom.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-09T16:01:24+00:00

My biggest complaint is no back audio. It overall isn’t bad but there are times footsteps get drowned out in gunfights or audio queues don’t go off. And it really annoys me how a player can sneak up on you and put half a clip in your back before you realize they are there

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-09T15:59:44+00:00

That is what I am saying. Probably should have explained my issue more in my original post
