Re: Its all the time who got the nice position who won the game

@HarmoniumxivIt happens but how is it any different than dealing with a Caustic who has the only building trapped? You can't win that unless you have a ton of nades or seriously outskill the Caustic team...

I'm okay with legends being able to gain advantages based on their abilities, even in end rings. You have advantages with your legends.

I have been bang with a digital threat in final ring I smoke it and the enemies are spinning in circles as I down them. I have been caustic and trapped people inside of buildings.. I have played as Path and zipped to the high POI.. It's part of apex legends and the game dynamic. Yeah it kind of sucks when it goes against you. But it's awesome when it plays into your favor.

@Harmoniumxiv So perhaps you're good enough to play in those lobbies? But he's not? Are you sure they are current preds? Lots of people don't even make it into the lobbies with the preds.. They see old pred trails from Season 2 and 3. If you're in a top tier lobby you'll see tons of the purple and red trails coming out of the drop ship, not just 1 or 2.

If he's not good enough for lobbies spend time with him in the firing range improving his skill or he can grind with randoms. I played most of Season 7 with randoms. My in game skill has sky rocketed because I constantly had to carry them.

I often kill caustic before the gas kill me.

@Harmoniumxiv Plenty of forum users who would happily play with you. Join one of the AHQ clubs or make a thread in the looking for a squad.

Ramp is a legend that a team has to play into. They have to play for positioning and setting up.. They have to go for high ground POI. So you need one of two things.. A team who will play for positioning and not kills or you need teammates who can help you brute force push the more desirable locations.

You also need teammates who will watch your flank when you are on Shelia. Don't forget to put a wall up behind you when you put Shelia down. Even if you have teammates covering your back you're a stationary target so while they might be able to provide some cover fire for a bit. They won't be able to protect you entirely.

I'd be happy to play some rounds with you here and there and play into her strengths. But I tend to be a more aggressive player who likes to look for and push fights.

That is how you can tell its time to improve. Paying attention to your surroundings and positioning is very important in the game just as aiming and moving. This is something if you work on will help you over come as you will have the position well before they will once you see circle being some where and or it being high ground.

If there’s one thing I learned from the Obi Wan vs Anakin Skywalker fight is that having the high ground is always an advantage. Lol.
