Less begginer friendly game I've ever played. Any tips??

@Lyntur I agree that the matchmaking is making it hard for beginners like you but you have to be patient with yourself as well. We can't be good overnight and it takes a lot of playing and watching YT videos for me just to be decent. I'll list some aspects of the game that I think is important. It's not all about gun fighting.

-Know/Predict when the 3rd party will come. Know when to back out of a fight and sometimes you have to give up the sweet loot you just got from killing another squad just because of a potential 3rd party team.
- Loot faster and you have to know which guns you are comfortable with.
- Be sure to be updated with the patch notes. Way back in season 7 (I think) there was this major change that the last ring was changed to be signficantly slower. My friends and I knew that and used that to our advantage by not panicking to get inside the ring. The other 2 squads panicked to get in the middle of the ring and we easily won that game with a big Gibby ult.
- As a controller player, I watch youtubers who also use controllers with a similar playstyle as I am like iTemp, SooxFar, Jankz etc. The same with mnk, watch mnk players.
-I can't emphasize enough to master the map. You can only do this by playing the game.
-Apex's firing range sucks to be honest. You can toggle the dummies to move and shoot at you but their movements are not how real people strafe in-game. We need dummies that strafe left and right without firing back at you so that you can practice shooting first then practice strafing yourself afterwards.
-Unfortunately there are a lot of things that you'll eventually learn just by playing. There are some occasions that I would use my downed teammate to bait the enemy to go to my location and then kill him.
-Use doors to your advantage and know all the tactics in a door standoff. Sooxfar is good at this.
-Practice rope movement
- Get squadmates that use mics. There's a thread here where you can look for squadmates.
-Get good headsets. Audio is a big part of this game that's why it's frustrating that it works only 90% of the time. The gaming merchant made a video showing the different footstep sounds of all the legends. Knowing your enemy legends can be helpful in predicting what they can do in a fight.
- Be patient with yourself and temper your expectations. The game is incredibly frustrating especially for beginners because of the huge learning curve. In a 3-4hr session in a day, I can only win around 2-3 games. There are days where the game feels like it just wants me to lose.

Recently I much prefer to just shoot shoot shoot and don't care if I win the game or not. Enjoy the game and if you get toxic teammates, just quit that game. Don't waste your time with those types of people. If I can think of other tips other than "get good" and that are not commonly given in tips videos in YT, I'll post them here.
