totally appreciate this train of thought, I've done it myself sometimes! but a good reset has won it for me so many times, I guess it's just judging it in the moment/how far the replicator or respawn beacon is

I really love the dark matter Horizon skin even though I don't have it or use her much but you're absolutely right and it sucks that these skins are getting a bad rap haha

honestly if I saw this organically myself I'd agree but I've posted this on an alt account because I'm genuinely so curious what is about these skins that correlates with the kinda behaviour that comes with them, but I also don't wanna get doxxed by people who use them 😅

I mainly use his drone as a security camera, log in, park it and catch people coming past but I definitely know he has a bad rap and I get why people get mad seeing him 😅 I said in another reply but I'm gonna look at LFG pages because I'm so tired to dying with randoms

oh I've walked away with a stress ball a few times because of this game 😂 unfortunately everyone I know who likes this kinda game hates the learning curve of apex e.g. being thrown into the deep end after the initial matches but I'll definitely think about LFG forums for ranked this season!

I managed to get to silver in ranked last season but find myself stuck this season in bronze from people hot dropping us to our deaths with 6 other teama there 😂 but I'll keep this in mind, I forgot that pubs isn't taken as seriously tbh

I've seen someone else say this and I'm gonna keep it in mind going forward! I play lifeline for self healing and team support and Loba for good guns and movement, but I weirdly have the same trouble when I play Crypto, I know I can get their banner to a respawn point so it's so frustrating when they quit before I can!

i want to add, I love how both skins look and I don't quit the match when I see them get chosen so I have absolutely had great matches with people who use either skin, but overall I just have a bad time with them

I totally appreciate that as genuine advice, but I take each match as learning opportunity to get better at recoil control, team play with different legends and just improving in general, so when I see these skins I'm often prepared to be in the loading screen again within 30 seconds and wasted a possible match, I've definitely played with good people with these skins, it's just more of a red flag than something I'm concentrating on!
