I Followed The Tips In Ninja’s

I Followed The Tips In Ninja’s "Get Good" And Got Gooder

He offers suggestions on how to act on stream, which essentially amounts to a heightened version of oneself: "Smile a little bigger, be a little louder, wave your arms a little wider." He highlights building a community, something I’ve inadvertently been doing anyway through my obsession with this g

22ISC_Public_Event_WM-068.jpgIn worst-case scenarios in an Apex Legends match, Revenant can deploy a Death Totem (Ultimate) in an area that allows him to get a "second life." Any teammate who activates the Totem gets a "shadow mode" that gives them a free revive in the Death Totem’s location after death. In clutch moments, even Apex Legends Pistols can help Revenant’s team provided they’re in Shadow M

These thematic Battle Pass skins are intriguing as they play into the Jekyll-and-Hyde aspect of the trailer. Skins sometimes connote a nod to the game's lore, such as the Wraith Voidwalker skin. While it may be a stretch, it's possible that the two-faced theme may end up with Lifeline, Wraith and Wattson usurped by darkn

What separates a bad player from an excellent one in Apex is their understanding of the movement mechanics in the game. Learning how to slide, crouch, jump or climb over walls can establish a clear and explicit gap in skill between your competit

It's not unusual for Respawn and Electronic Arts to put subtle teasers into their trailers. A recent tweet from the official Apex Legends Twitter account showed correspondence that alluded to the fact that Caustic was becoming soft. One hypothesis is that this sets up a Caustic Town Takeover on Worlds Edge this season, similar to past takeovers for Wraith, Octane and Mir

Death Totem (Ultimate): Revenant releases a Death Totem that can give its users the means to fight death. The first time a teammate gets downed or killed while using a Death Totem will have them reappear in the Totem’s spawn point, practically giving them a second l

In this chapter, Ninja offers tips on pimping a stream to make it seem more professional. Recently, TheGamer invited me to do some product reviews. With a green screen backdrop, a nice LED light and more desktop space due to a wireless mouse option, I felt so good about my setup that I'm now convinced I'm the next Ninja (have you seen the header image on this stor

Climbing buff is ridiculous: Revenant’s climbing speed gets buffed in that he can climb up to eight (8) stories tall, which is 6-times higher than the ordinary Legend. This means he can climb shorter walls much fas

Weeks later, I invested in a gaming PC and revisited the chapter in the process. His advice impacted how I think about accessories. For Ballistic Kuben Blisk son example, I learned all about mouse DPI (dots per inch, for those of you who were are clueless as I was) and the relative benefits of different mouse pad sizes (big movements require a big pad). I learned wireless accessories can cause latency issues. I studied the pros and cons of different monitor sizes. I currently have a 30" monitor, but he posited a strong argument as to why I might choose a slightly smaller one in the future (essentially, something too big makes it hard to follow everything that’s happening on the scre

A good Apex or even battle royale player will never stay in the same spot for long periods of time. This goes for long-range and short-range fights, as staying in the same location for too long will spell an untimely death for a player. Be sure to always move around even if you hold an advantageous position over an enemy squad, as it may be the right amount of movement to avoid an enemy t

This isn’t the game’s first Season 4 teaser — who could forget Forge's untimely death or Revenant’s role in a brutal bloodbath ? — but it’s players’ first look at what they can expect when they drop into Worlds Edge after the season beg

_ Apex Legends _ recently introduced a Firing Range where I can apply these tactics. Typically, I’ll spend 20-30 minutes at the start of each session exploring recoil patterns or experimenting with different sensitivities. Once I’ve tired of that, I’ll then head into games with dedication to specific weapons or weapon clas

One of Revenant’s special traits that sets him apart from other Legends in Apex Legends would be Stalker (Passive) . This skill allows Revenant to crouch-walk faster and climb much higher, encouraging stealthier plays in close range that is perfect with Apex Legends SM

Just after the trailer introduces the totem, Revenant shoots some kind of grenade out of his arm. From the gameplay video alone, it’s hard to tell how, exactly, this will work. However, it appears his grenade tactical ability may have some kind of arc or stun charge, which manifests as the orange glowing ball in the image be

You would not want to play Gibraltar the same way as the illusive Wraith character, who's playstyle is about flanking enemies. Her elusive abilities make her an excellent choice for a player who excels at a harassing or assassin style of p
