Battle Royale Games Ranked

One of the biggest challenges of Apex Legends Solos revolves around whether there’s enough character balance to prevent lobbies from being comprised of only one or two different characters. Recently, TheGamer shared its top _ Apex Legends _ character picks for players grinding toward wins in Solos . Now, it’s time to run down the characters that won’t stand a chance without major bu

In case you weren't aware, Apex Legends has absolutely no fall damage. It doesn't matter how high you are, or how low your health is when falling— you'll never get hurt from falling alone. This is an important thing to know, because it leaves the door open for all kinds of new and interesting tactics. With this game, you can jump off a huge cliff, all the way down to an enemy position and surprise t

After playing Apex Legends for a few hours, you quickly learn that this game is all about mobility, climbing, and quickly moving through whatever terrain and obstacles stand in your way. Often, the players that can move quickly through a town or large building are the ones who succeed. Sneaking around, taking alternate routes, and surprising your enemies is the name of the g

Bloodhound, the game’s mysterious gender non-binary tracker being, is arguably one of the most interesting characters in the entire _ Apex _ arena. However, their Tactical Ability is questionable for Solos, and their Ultimate Ability is simply not useful in this m

Perhaps most impressive about Fortnite is its cross-platform and cross-progression support. You can play with anyone who has the game regardless of what system you’re playing on. Oversaturation might cause it to become stale for many, but there’s no denying that it’s fun at least for a good time per

It’s a worthy endeavor, and introducing Solos as a limited time mode is ideal. In order to combat the potential for an all-Pathfinder or all-Wraith meta, Respawn could introduce some character adjustments beyond slight damage- and speed-related nerfs and buffs like the ones it introduced at the beginning of Season 25 Meta Changes 2 . Even with adjustments that increase incoming damage by 5% for Wraith, Pathfinder and Lifeline, this minor reduction didn’t appear to affect players’ choices at the competitive le

It’s fair to expect that non-Pathfinder solo players will use Pathfinder’s zip lines after the character has already laid them down. But, this is not always a strong strategy as the Pathfinder will frequently have an elevated line of sight that allows them shoot players who attempt to use these zip lines to ambush t

Gibraltar already has one of the largest hitboxes in the game. This makes him much easier to hit than characters with smaller hitboxes, such as Wraith and Lifeline. Pair that with the fact that both his Gun Shield and Dome of Protection abilities give away his location, and it presents real challenges in competitive Solo p

Move over Fortnite , there's a new king in town. OK, maybe it's too early to be saying stuff like that, but there's no denying the impact that Apex Legends has had on the gaming community. According to the latest report, the game has amassed 25 million players, but that number has likely expanded. It's also the top individual game on Twitch, and it has bumped Fortnite to third place (behind League of Legend

It happens in most games - a particularly overzealous player sees some specks in the distance, pings their location to their teammates, and starts shooting at them with an assault rifle. This is probably the worst thing you could possibly do. Sure, if you have a sniper rifle, then go crazy, but otherwise leave them alone. It's not only a huge waste of ammo, but it gives away your position to them and the squads in the nearby vicinity. Try tracking inst

Potential ideas include slowing down the regeneration of Pathfinder’s zip line, introducing a way to tear down the zip lines similar to the way players can break Wattson’s fences, or introducing a grapple gun-type tool in the environment that allows other characters to grapple a limited number of times. Wraith may be a bit tougher, but perhaps certain player attributes, such as Caustic's gas, can cause the character to still take damage while in the void. Of course, it's worth noting that players are likely to push back against such major nerfs to either of these favorite charact

Caustic's gas traps are one of the most frustrating things to encounter in the game. Finding yourself in the middle of a gas maze almost always results in elimination, and the traps can seem way too OP as a result. Luckily, there IS a way to counter the traps (aside from utilizing tactical abilities). Simply shoot the red portion of the trap (located near the bottom) in order to disable it, allowing safe passage for you and your team. Easy pe

Additionally, the character’s zip line ultimate lets players reach areas of the map that others can’t reach. As in most shooter games, high ground is extremely advantageous, particularly for both hiding out of the view of players on the battlefield and for landing headshots on oppone
