In gaming, "flanking" describes the process of using the terrain to exploit an enemy blindspot. Frequently, in Apex, this means traveling the perimeter of the circle to reach the opponent rather than taking a direct p
However, in cases where this is simply not possible, find cover and try to anticipate opponents’ moves. The majority of time, due to the circle constraints or simply the desire to take down their opponents before the final circle ends the game, they’ll drop from the high-ground position. Be ready for it and take advantage of the situation by having shotguns on h
On the surface, Mirage may look like a self-centered guy who only cares about himself. It turns out that he's quite thoughtful and his fear of his mother losing her only remaining child ate away at him constan
With the announcement of the Iron Crown Packs, players seem to have hit their limit of consumer exploitation. As a limited-time event, players only have a small window to collect that cosmetics that they may want, of which there are 24. Each player can complete a set of tasks to be awarded two of these packs, but the remainder cost about $7 each in real mo
The kindest way to describe the current state of Apex Legends is that it has destroyed its own potential in its pending death by a thousand cuts. One indicator of a game’s popularity is its viewership numbers on Twitch , which tell a story of how interested people are in watching the game's content. Although not representative exactly of the number of players in the game, we can see a steady decline over the past six mon
The game's objective is to get wins, so it’s impossible to fault anyone for choosing to learn and play this character. The major problem is that Respawn Entertainment has developed a universe of interesting characters with unique abilities, but none of them can effectively counter a Pathfinder’s speed and height advanta
Caustic was born on the planet known as Gaea. It was home to Humbert Labs, the premier manufacturer of pesticides for the Frontier crops, and Caustic's future employer. Gaea is located in The Outlands which means Caustic's venture onto Solace and into the Apex Games wasn't too far of a space t
Though his career may have started with his mind in the right place, he was ultimately driven mad. It's unclear whether he has always that way and it finally came to light, or the exposure to the chemicals severely affecting his brain functi
Some people say that a team's reliance on the Pathfinder character is fine because every team can choose to have a Pathfinder on it, which makes it fair to all. This isn’t inherently wrong, but it's still problematic. The Slg game Updates is designed to allow different team compositions to have different tactical advantages when playing together. The fact that teams so frequently rely on Pathfinder signifies an imbalance in the meta at a fundamental le
If you've ever been to a bar and had a good experience with the bartender it was likely due to how outgoing and welcoming they were. The life of a bartender suited Mirage pretty well and it was exactly what he did before entering King's Canyon in hopes of competing in the Apex Ga
Within the game's meta, with some major exceptions, there are few character abilities that can’t be replicated by some other means. For example, Gibraltar’s and Bangalore’s ultimates function similar to a supersized grenade barrage. Digital Threats give guns the same red highlights visible in Bloodhound’s ultimate ability. All characters can heal and regain shields, and Wattson and Lifeline simply have means to help players do it more quickly and efficien
In Apex Legends Mirage is the Bugs Bunny of the group. His joking personality and willingness to always have a good time is praised and welcomed by several people. It also has a way of rubbing some people the wrong way and coming off as fake or disingenu
Mirage is from Solace, which is the planet in which the Apex Games take place.
