Game Ending - Which do you prefer?
I watch a fair amount of Apex on twitch. Quite a few different people, many that play ranked at a high level. If you do not know, ranked this season has taken on a pretty large change. Because KP is unlimited, many players are 3 stacking, roaming zone edges looking for kills. The valk, horizon, seer meta is also making this more possible. People in general play ranked a lot more aggressively. This makes the lobbies die off a lot faster than they used to. This is even happening in some tournaments. A lot of pros that have been playing comp for a long time hate it. Some, who are used to early rotations and waiting for end game are getting killed by these aggressive team. Sometimes these aggressive teams get 3rded and also die. The games almost never get down to the zone fully closed. So my question is this-
Which type of game do you prefer-
1 - Older traditional Apex, with multiple teams waiting for end game.
2 - Newer Apex with all the aggression.
I myself am torn. I liked the old way because the chaos at the end resulted in some pretty cool plays but it almost always felt a bit RNG to me. Yes, you could do things to reduce the RNG by playing Caustic or Wraith or Valk and making a play at the end but that seems a bit wrong that a legend at the end has an advantage based on an ability. This is, after all a gun game first right?
I have been enjoying watching the aggressive play. You see more fights and less pointless wall bouncing as they wait 15 to 20 minutes for the game to progress. The best fighters with awareness usually win.
