Changed my mind on Vantage
I was happy to get a load of games in before I made any serious comments on her, and I don’t like screaming nerf in the first day of release but she is frustrating the hell out of myself and friends ...

Yes this free charged Sentinel jusr easier to hit shots with is game-breaking especially when its abused by pre-mades. It makes pre-mades even more dominant.
I can clearly see where this game is going and Im afraid Im gonna have to pass on this one because I dont have a pre-made team and Im outnumbered or onehitted by Snipers mark in like 75% of my games.
I was thinking that Horizons ult is broken when used by pre-mades, its absolutelly nothing when compared to this little Kraber. I mean Vantage has a huge hitbox to make her somehow balanced in eyes of devs (or it atleast looks like it) but you wont get close enough to take advantage on that anyway so... :D
sound's like you have a much greater problem with premade 3 stacks than anything else.

I guess we can call it more like a matchmaking problem, but I mean like Vantage is overpowered especially for pre-mades, Ive already explained that. She may be even kinda bad for solos because of her large hitbox and random teams mostly dont just stay away and snipe, they mostly push or fight at closer ranges from what I can tell after 1300 hours in Apex.
Im just installing Warzone and talking here in meantime, I didnt mean for it to be looking like I have such a big problem with pre-mades that I have to spend hour on Apex forum. :DI like this game, but it just became too unfair. Especially when they buff pre-mades with mini Kraber as a third weapon for whole match. It was hard against pre-mades even before that. But I get it, this is a team based game. :D Like when it started to be super-hard for me in Gold2 it was a time to say something may be really wrong and because I like Apex a want it to be good as possible for everyone Im trying to tell something too and not just switch games. Id love to play Apex more than Warzone, but its just too hard already and wathcing them buffing pre-mades even more, its just goes against fair. Lot of people would love random lobbies only, or even only random (with duos too) ranking system soi they can get more fair games when they dont have friends to play with.
You have answered your own questions here.
EA did not buff pre-made 3 stack teams with the addition of Vantage or any other legend.
Pre-made teams have an advantage because they are playing as a team, communicating as a team, and have team strategies. This has nothing to do with a new legend or any other legend, they have to change their strat just as much as anyone else when a new legend is introduced.
Solo Q-ers are in fact at a disadvantage and again it has nothing to do with Vantage or any other legend.
Solo Q-ers are mainly at a disadvantage because they will not be familiar with the play style of their randoms, communication will be an issue, trying to get on the same sheet of music to play as a team will be an issue and most solo Q-ers are not in fact team players, most are out their to just get kills and do not care about winning a game.
In a team based game solo Q-ing is tough but is not impossible if one is lucky enough to get randoms that want to work as a team and win the game, the tough part is when all three players want to be the IGL and Rambo all at the same time.
