Re: How Ranked Leagues Will Work in Season 2 of Apex Legends

Camping is getting harder and harder on higher level.

1. Bronze : Most players are noobs, I can easily hide to top 3.

2. Silver : Most players are so so, I can easily hide to top 5 or 3.

3. Gold :Camping getting harder since you can't get spot at all or you risk to die early. They start to struggle to get top 3, but still can get top 5.

If they get top 5 (4RP but cost 2RP), they will get 2RP. It start getting become grinding considering huge amount of time needed 10-15 min to get only 2RP.

4. Platinum: Camping style really struggle here since most hiding spot already identified by top player and once spotted, directly die. They will struggle to top-5.

When you have to pay 4RP to get maximum 4RP(top-5), you get NOTHING, then you start questioning yourself what I'm doing here, doing nothing for 15 minutes??

Only stubborn "mole" stay persistent here.

5. Diamond : Calculate and aggressive style only.

6. Predator : Calculate and aggressive style only.

@asukojo It's nice in theory man - but even the most paranoid player isn't checking under every building and behind every boulder. If someone is dead set on camping all they have to do is play pathfinder and grapple into a tree and stay still. Plenty of players were happy to do it - look at all the elite streak badges.

We'll just have to see how good/bad it is when the dust settles.

I know that trick, there's youtube video discuss it in details 🙂
But It's not my playstyle and my kid hate it :
- dad, you're chicken
- you're so boring
- are you a man or woman?
- I want to play as well
- you're wasting everybody time
- what is the point of this??
....etc :P
Note:
As time flies, most experience player knows all the hiding place and they will start looking for campers to get the points.

Pleased to say that I was totally wrong in my pessimism before ranked started. I've not seen anyone camping in the same way as they were doing for the elite streak. People are just playing. I can only speak for what I've seen which is xbox OCE, and before I had guests arrive with us I was playing a little bit ahead of the curved in ranked so I don't know what the situation is behind me - but so far so good.
