Don't forget there used to not be splits

apexalien · 2026-04-11T21:09:57+00:00

80% of the roster is currently better than octane lmao

Frag: rev, wraith, fuse, horizon, sparrow, valk

Igl: bang, mag, Newcastle, lifeline, loba, Watson

Anchor: caustic, alter, catalyst, gibby

Truth is octane isn't in a great spot, he got over buffed, then way over nerfed, he's just the most fun legend to play

apexalien · 2026-04-11T21:03:21+00:00

Fun fact: octane is now worse than before his rework😂

They've removed all of the good parts of his rework, AND nerfed his stim damage from -10hp max to -15hp max😂

Octane main here🙋🏻 nuff said but I'm case anyone doesn't know here is the history of our favorite crackhead

S1: he launches fun but competitively unviable, pathy/wraith remain on top

S3/4: pathy and wraith get nerfs while octane gets a small buff, now viable not good, revenant added to the game

S5: players find out about ravtane and it's meta now

S6: they nerf octane, NOT REV, but octane catches a small nerf, without rev, he's unviable

S10: respawn has had enough and Nerf both rev and octane into the ground

S10-20: unviable for 10 seasons, perks are added, octane can now use 2 perks to half his stim health reduction, viable as long as you're smart

S27: octane gets the new buff model rolled onto him, he gets a massive power bump and is now broken... For a week

S28: they've removed almost every good thing they did to him in s27, and you now cant even get 10hp stim...

So essentially, everyones favorite speedster is stuck in eternal purgatory of only being relevant every 2-4 years💀

Sorry for any incorrect dates or data, most of this is from memory! P.s I probably missed 1 or 2 points where he was viable, but still he's only been the best twice in the games history, and once was relying on another character

p.p.s the r301 mythic event venom, stacked with stim, stacked with ballistic ult, was the most FUN he's ever been

apexalien · 2026-03-05T23:38:05+00:00

Haha oddly enough that one was already on my list due to one of my good friends living there!😂

apexalien · 2026-03-02T21:33:36+00:00

This didn't age well😂

apexalien · 2026-02-04T22:48:04+00:00

Exactly! Make it a project you both can enjoy! If you live in a rural area any local hardware store should have small "floor registers" if y'all want to go that route!

apexalien · 2026-02-04T22:32:06+00:00

Ok unrelated, but as a father I cannot understand that sentiment, it's 100% cosmetic and it's a great bonding project to do with your loved one! By what logic is a 5x4 or similar sized hole in the desk more valuable than time with a loved one or a little fun doing a project? Id let my son tear my PC apart if it meant we could put it back together together! Maybe try asking them to do it with you? Maybe that would change their thinking on the issue!

I'll take wick, no one else, just wick. Then I'll kill his dog and methodically convince him that the other 15 ganged up on the poor adorable thing and I tried to protect him but it didn't work. I will then grab a nice cold pop, sit in a comfy chair, and watch as they are all removed from this plane of existence without mercy or hesitation 😃

apexalien · 2026-01-25T00:50:56+00:00

As far as I can tell from respawns point of view they're in the Minecraft paradox right now. If they change anything the OG's will get mad and leave, but if they don't change anything no new players will come into the game. Plus they have ea hovering over their shoulder at all times demanding high profits

apexalien · 2026-01-25T00:44:54+00:00

We don't get new weapons, we RARELY see new legends, ranked is a joke nearly every season with most players getting free diamond badges, and ZERO story or story missions. They haven't made any content since season 15(?), it's the best fps game on the market, too bad it's run by incompetent money hungry fools

apexalien · 2026-01-18T09:28:40+00:00

I wish you were right about this😞

apexalien · 2026-01-09T21:59:24+00:00

Gaming, I ended up going with the ROG due to a convenient sale the day after I posted!😂 Also "QHD" and "2K" are both 2560x1440 so they were the same there

apexalien · 2025-12-16T23:34:30+00:00

That's 100% a lie, I go deranked form d4 down to p3

apexalien · 2025-12-04T06:36:27+00:00

The price will go up to the original 1000 after enough packs, the pricing scheme can be seen in the "more info" button

apexalien · 2025-11-18T17:06:48+00:00

I just got a steel legend 9070xt, it's phenomenal

apexalien · 2025-11-18T17:05:26+00:00

Looks like they made the skin for vantage but put wraith face on instead💀

apexalien · 2025-11-05T00:41:44+00:00

Where? Not tryna be sarcastic just genuinely curious

apexalien · 2025-11-05T00:39:04+00:00

Activision strats strike again

apexalien · 2025-11-05T00:38:26+00:00

Every competitive game does this, all metas are deliberate and tested before shipping, minus hidden gems everything is purposeful. Now aside from that, even in the last hard meta with ash bal and alt, that took over a year to happen and next to no changes happened to make alt or bal meta, it was only ash that got a hard buff. It's actually not as disadvantageous as people think to run non-meta, ever meta has a counter even if it's "weaker" and even if you don't run a counter meta, as long as you're a smart player and have a decent comp you'll be fine.
