Smurfs in Apex?
I just started ranked games and i'm in bronze. Very often, especially late night, me and my squad encounter another squad that kills us in 4 seconds. I notice that the players are insanely skilled,...
@DoYaSeeMe Even if you have really good aim, the mechanics at first can be pretty overwhelming. You can't expect someone really new to get familiar with looting system, positioning etc in one session even when you play with friends. I watch some random streamers here and there who have good aim but are relatively new to Apex and they genuinely struggle a lot. That's why a level cap is necessary so that they can familiarize with core mechanics first.
As for rank escalation similar to how Riot does in Valorant, I think it will be a good addition(if they do it). It will solve the problem of 'tier demotions stacking up' to some extent. Like if someone drops 15 kills, 3k dmg in Bronze you escalate them to maybe Gold(silver?) , it's not possible for a true newbie to post that high of a score unless you are Shroud lol
There is a high percantage of players smurfing at ranked!
I guess 90% are smurfers!
They play much much much better than me!
Since there are 0% new players all players at bronce are rerolls or smurfers...
