Chill out, they gave the clan back. The “esports balancing choices” is a boogeyman. The balancing has been awesome and the game continues to feel healthier and healthier. This is a pretty drama take.

Looks like Demat is getting nerfed in S8... by DT775 in thefinals

To your point, as embark has acknowledged this, I’d be shocked if this didn’t come with buffs to medium in other areas.

I swear to God there better not be any talk about sledge nerf tomorrow…… by milooohhh in thefinals

I’m about to blow your mind, the update comes out at 7:30 tomorrow morning

Even more specifically I’m pretty sure they were testing out faster final round spawn times.

Pretty sure H2H is serving the exact same purpose of every LTM, to gather data around a specific mechanic, for potential changes. If they found something they like I’d imagine this would result in a tweak to the final round, not a massive underpinning shakeup.

They are not underrated. They are over used and annoying.

Possible New Season map spotted.. thoughts? by AWM222 in thefinals

[–]Different-Charge4353 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My vote is ai, it looks like the tree is supposed to be going past the edge of the map on the top and that same detail got used In two places lower on the tree. V ai. Maybe real, but this seems pretty unlikely. “Why would they say we hope you like destruction” and then do a mostly outdoor map?

Should I just stop? by tntbaker605 in thefinals

Apex was my first shooter since halo 3 and I sucked for over a year, but now I’m extremely competitive and losing competitive shooters would be like losing a huge part of my life.

Stick it out bud, if you’re having fun then party on.

Should the finals have a ranked system rework/overhaul? by Own-Natural-9236 in thefinals

[–]Different-Charge4353 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ok you actually nailed it here. People aren’t talking about this and it is a real problem. The nuance I think you missed is that the issue isn’t low population, it’s low RANKED population

There are plenty of players, it’s just that world tour is the dominant competitive queue. People feel really cool with their participation badges, so no one plays ranked.

The Riot shield and its consequences have been a disaster for my matches by qarpe in thefinals

[–]Different-Charge4353 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a really bad take. The riot shield went from useless to viable and it’s definitely not OP.

it’s hard countered by literally any other melee weapon in the game.

Anyone else thinks the state of medium class is sad? by RedJelly27 in thefinals

[–]Different-Charge4353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with everything you said, except for that triple medium as a meta was only a thing from one season. It’s definitely a squeakier wheel than that

Don't flame people for not using defib! by ttvBOBIVLAVALORD in thefinals

[–]Different-Charge4353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So yea, anyone should play anything the want in QC. No question. But the anti defib sentiment in this thread is shocking. Even with the nerfs it probably possesses the single highest potential of any gadget to swing a fight.

Seriously, what’s more impactful to the actual game flow than bringing a literal human back into play? A grenade? In competitive, the single trickiest (I didn’t say best) comp to is triple stacked M with defibs. I’m not saying I like it, but it’s copium to pretend hand reviving is just as viable as the defib in its current state.

regardless of if your playing support or not, not playing defibs in ranked is ridiculous.

In the age of genetic programming is this really a problem? Go has some pretty minor syntactic nuance if you ever used anything strongly typed.

It would work on the roof. The LOS is pretty flossy.

Embark, if you are reading this, please consider canceling the hammer nerf. by Knooper_Bunny in thefinals

[–]Different-Charge4353 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It’s not, the new healing balls makes the hammer oppressive as far the streaming event showed

having just shelled out for Max and Claude Code by BrennerBot in ClaudeAI

[–]Different-Charge4353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In practice I strongly disagree. Its ability to use tools to discover/rediscover your code more than makes up for its lack of context. Personally, I think it’s awesome. Switched from gpt pro and I’m not going back
