This is where I set off on a goal to help guide my fellow casual players who are always looking to challenge themselves in competitive game modes. I try to respect my viewers time by getting straight to the point, so that the content meets your expectations.
If you don't have the time or desire to be watching steams in your spare time (which is one of the best ways to absorb game knowledge these days) then I hope through my guides, tips and strategies to come out on top, you'll find a home here.
Ill also be looking at covering the ins and outs of competitive/enthusiast communities that surround the gaming space such as niche peripherals that are designed with gaming in mind.

I may be mistaken but I saw the rampage charge up once you used the ultimate. This happened to me once with the sentinal and I think it’s worth a mention. This is cool.
i was on the fence before i watched this review, and i want to say 2 things. 1. I will get it, you made it sound fun. 2. for a first review, you did pretty good, not going to lie. keep up the good work sir!
I’m an OG Pre-Season Caustic Main and the amount of changes is Caustic Main have gotten is unbelievable. The devs have to be careful about buffing and nerfing our legend since he can be too strong if changed too much.
I would never recommend this game to anybody. The game is not enjoyable and seems like all the company cares about is money. They use manipulative tactics to keep their players playing and buying their packs. They don’t fix crap on the game.
Award for fairness? sorry that's a joke, Apex matchmaking is garbage and anything but fair, it forces you in to sweat lobbies and then gives you absolutely garbage teammates when you solo que. Far far from fair
Hey m8 thanks for sharing your thoughts, I think its hard to judge matchmaking based on the team mates you get in a game like this. Gameplay is so varied its so easy for an aggressive player to think their team mate is garbage for playing safe and the safe player to think the agressive player is garbage for running in and playing aggresive, couple that with the fact everyone seems to think everyone is garbage except for themselves I just dont think that's a justifiable argument for bad match making. People tend to get to the rank they are at eventually fairly comfortably, yes your team mate that plays completely different to you can mean you squad wipe early but if you adapt to different playstyles it will work in your favour, its literally the same for every competitive game. Its a meme at this point that everything is your team mates fault, if you struggle in gold for example then how do plat/diamond/master players always make it back with relative ease? They are just good enough to overcome the obstacle of having varied team mates. This mind set is not a match making issue its a player issue in my opinion. I appreciate your viewpoint however and im sure there will be many others that agree with your POV too.
I fully understand what your saying and in a perfect would I would full agree, but the matchmaking gives you noob players that are low level like 1-18 for example, while I'm level 800, I don't mind new players but most dont even understand the basic functionals of the game because they literally just installed the game and started playing that day nearly, meanwhile we're up against veteran 3 stacks, and all I have is my own skill and 2 teammates that are way way underskilled in comparison, also some random teammates just do thier own thing and go off on their own and then die and quit and leave the game leaving me handcap all because the guy went down no fault of mine, so then I have to either 1v3 everyone myself and babysit the whole time keeping myself and my noob teammates I'm forced to play with alive. I truly feels like I'm forced to babysit noobs, sorry. All so they can get carried by me to have a better starting player experience from EA instead of just letting them play with people that are the same level as they are. But EA is are throwng them with me in to sweat lobbies with no hope of survival unless I carry them 1v3'ing every team we encounter, this gets worse when noobs just what to hot drop all the time too, makes the whole game last like 2 mins or less because everyone dies instantly all the time because they get dropped by the experienced players instantly nearly the second they hit the ground. Repeat this 50 times a day and it gets to be absolutely madding. I 1000% blame the garbage matchmaking.
Absolutely not for casual player due the bad MM , with master and predator running since silver and gold lobbies making impossible to rank up ! Clear not only kind of SBMM in background but something else as EOMM because never reset the algorithm even you get smash 10 game in a row by first team 3 rank up to yours. Full of cheaters destroying the game without EA support with anticheat that is not working because even clear aimbot is not detected. Without speaking about 6/7/9/12 - manning running around making even worst the game experiences ! Classic example of REALLY GOOD GAME being destroyed by cheaters and bad support in this case by EA with incompetent security patch against cheaters , hacking account/smurfing etc..! That's the true about current status !!!!
As an Apex OG (who still considers myself a casual player), when I see someone introduced to the game it feels sorta like watching someone take hard drugs for the first time. You'll probably think "man, he's done for" lol . Dying to cheaters in what seems like most of my games only to hop back on later because the gameplay is addicting, is truly the Apex experience. The game has also been out for 5 years now so there's also plenty of good players on there too. Don't let that intimidate you though, imo good players = good fights. 🔥
Refreshing someone to speak positively about this great game. Imo comunity somehow gotten somewhat negative, yeah there are cheaters and what not, but for pubs I no longer see them, so I guess thanks maters and preds for "containing them" :D
@Andrew-xc2qi - This video was made back when survey beacons showed the location of the next circle, it was later changed to reveal the location of enemies in season 16. Unfortunately I don't yet have a time machine to edit old videos after a future patch comes out to preserve my credibility.
One tip for advanced path players it to purposefully break your grapple with crouch when grappling the floor. If you don’t break the grapple, you will continue to swing into the ground and you will lose a lot of momentum. This can also be done by flicking upwards which is why you might see pros flick up when grappling.
A lil bonus tip about patchy is that him and crypto both have that circle around their dead zone cross. It’s kinda cool cuz it personally helps me with aim
my experience was completely different, the combat feels slow and clunky, jabs and tackles dont function properly, the cameras field of view is way to narrow, lag, counters dont counter anything because people can just block before your counter lands. All the weapons feel the same. The game unplayable for me.
Another really big thing is don't be afraid to use these in a fight. Practicing in the firing range is a good start but to get it down to muscle memory you're going to have to use it in an actual fight. I promise, you're going to fail sometimes. I still do and I'm at 1200 kills with Pathfinder. That's not a lot by typical standards but that's enough that I've got his mechanics down enough to where i dont have to think about what I'm doing. Yet i still mess up sometimes. Don't be afraid to lose so you can practice getting his movement down. Id start in the firing range, move over to control/tdm/gun run and then go into BR. Applying pressure to yourself helps further cement the mechanics into your muscle memory.
