Just yesterday, Respawn Entertainment announced the _ Apex Legends _ Iron Crown Collection Event, which will coincide with a limited time Solos Mode. But because _ Apex Legends _ has its roots in team play, some people believe this is an unusual option for a battle royale that thrives on a team dynamic. But, for those ready to jump in, Spitfires blazing, here are TheGamer’s top picks on which characters to use while aiming for that cr

Canonically Bloodhound is a 4x Apex Games champion in the years leading up to the beginning of apex current gun Meta Legends . Considering they're a famous tracker and hunter it would make sense that their skills would allow them to hunt down other people and come out as the best of the b

Much like the Hemlok AR, this SMG fires in controlled bursts, but puts out five rounds instead of three. It's incredibly difficult to manage without modifications, as the accuracy isn't great to begin with. Compounding it with an awkward burst setting doesn't do it any fav

This type of speech has a lot to do with Bloodhound's beliefs and purpose and tie directly into why they decided to participate in the Apex Games. It also explains why Bloodhound's companion happens to be a mysterious ra

In a Solo Mode gunfight, phasing during a bullet battle allows Wraith to survive long enough to find cover and shield the character from damage. This ability also means her character can avoid taking damage in the storm for short periods of time, which can sometimes means the difference between outliving an opponent as players race toward the safe z

This Legend is the stuff of nightmares. Area denial and the constant threat of being firebombed would drastically shift the meta, likely demanding that mobility take a front seat in selecting characters. This Legend had better come with a skin for The Trashcan

Players looking to take fights early in the game should run this comp. Lifeline and Conduit can replenish the team's shields and health. Ballistic can take point as his revamped kit will serve those with a knack for gunfights better. On that note, Ballistic’s smart bullet deals slightly more damage. More notably, his Sling weapon now levels up with a player’s shi

Taking the dubious honor of this list's bottom entry is this unremarkable semi-auto pistol. The magazine size is best described as claustrophobic and it has the weakest damage output in the game, barring maybe the melee attack. But even that has redeeming qualit

This Legend standouts for the sheer amount of camping potential that could come from using them properly. This seems counterintuitive in terms of Legend design, at least from the perspective of offering compelling and exciting esports coverage. Imaging a full map of teams doing nothing but camping and waiting for everyone else to make the first move. Not exactly riveting st

The Alternator SMG really only ranks above the P2020 because it fires in full auto, dishing out a little more damage, and doing it faster. But the damage output is still pretty low and the tiny magazine is likely to leave you unable to finish the job at the most inopportune ti

In the current state of the game, Wraith is easily one of its most valuable players. Her ability to quickly reposition using Into the Void, paired with a Dimensional Rift portal that allows her and other characters to travel longer distances in the blink of an eye, will also prove valuable in solo com

Representation in entertainment isn't only about the color of the skin or the facial design of a character. Fully fleshing them out as three-dimensional people with a cultural and societal depth that adds to inclusiveness separates those who attempt it and those who commit to it as a development philoso

Talk about the potential for controversy and frustration. A good sniper can often make it feel as though one has not played a game, they merely ran along until the sniper spotted them from a distance. This is an extreme, but one wonders about the reception to squads with this Sniper toolkit and a competent Pathfin

Apex Legends is a battle royale game that wasn't only designed and developed to take advantage of the new hot video game genre, but it seems it provided developer Respawn Entertainment with a chance to spread their creative wings. The game launched with a selection of legends who vary in skills, backgrounds, and personalit

Now this is a creative character that would likely be more entertaining than competitive viable. Burglar’s Best Friend is always welcome for its mobility, while the rest is simply for getting the best loot to help

Yeah, yeah. I know, this list is for weapons. And really, the melee option isn't fantastic in terms of damage. But it has a few utility roles that often get overlooked or simply undiscovered by new players, making it largely more useful than the preceding collection of subpar weapo

​Mobility with stealth infiltration sounds like a nightmare to unorganized groups. An entire minute of having one’s location revealed is terrible news, especially in the late game. As always, disabling abilities can swing a fight entirely, so this Legend might be far too powerful in a coordinated gr
