Zone damage to strong
Unfortunately the zone does too much damage. In no game have you died through the zone more often than in Apex. In addition, zone phases that are too short.

But why are you dying to the zone? Myself, in 9/10 times the zone is the reason why I am eliminated from the match (directly or indirectly) are:
- because I get too greedy for loot, like jumping far away to the edge of the map and get am unfortunate, far first circle and loots my way towards it, way too long and way too greedy.
- because I just dont pay attention or care about the circle and possible choke points to my way there.
- Because I sometimes is to "scared" to do what I have to do, i.e compete for the circle or even position to have an advantage to take a new positon inside the new circle .
- I do stupid stuff like prioritizing looting a box outside the circle instead of just running, or thirsting a kill instead of running etc
I think the game gives you enough time see the next circle and to plan your approach to it for it to not be something you can really blame on if you die to it =). I would hate if they make the circle so insignificant so that those teams who actually prioritized taking the new circle would get half the lobby coming in from behind to third party them long after the circlr has shut
