Re: so a 100% pickrate in the ALGS is fine?

i honestly watch about half of ALGS matches, mostly NA and APEC South so i am not sure what is happening in EU or APEC North but the majority of matches i see have at least 18 bangalore's, also watch a lot of scrims similar story(however scrims is just more NA so maybe that doesnt count) and i do hope with the removal of digi on smg's that her pickrate will go down.

reading the links you provided especially with the general pickrates(not ALGS) is very interesting though while i was mostly talking about the ALGS because i only recently came back to playing apex legends so while my experience in the past few days has been a lot of bangalore statistics prove that its not really the case, just the meta in algs has become so stale so that is really my main concern but hopefully the new update changes some things

@reconzeroNo I don’t mean their needs are irrelevant, my point is that their pickrate is influenced by factors that have nothing to do with how good a legend is.
A pro team will ignore such factors, they play what's the best not what they like the most.

on top of that I believe games should get balanced on top lvl and not for avgandy, and most games get balanced like that for example Dota. If a hero is strong and has a high pickrate in a tournament usually he gets nerfed after.
