when is the next balance changes for characters?

i’m watching a lot of the professionally hosted competitions.  there are some legends that are unseen.  

when are they going to get buffed?  what’s the plan for some of these legends that aren’t seeing picks?

some may argue that not every character is not meant to be competitive, but that sounds kind of comical.  every character should be at odds.  

EA seems to be doing pretty well money wise, does it always take a whole season for changes?  many other companies tweak balance changes pretty fast and they are at no equal level of spending power compared to the host of apex.

  • i actually think it would be more fun to watch.  watching everyone run seer/valk and another character is kind of boring. 

    never said in the same way, just make them viable period.

    Personally, I feel like the balance in Apex is in around the best state it's been in for a long time, both weapons and legends.

    Oh ok.  was there patch notes for this split?  what did they update legend wise

  • @Voidraker There’s always a sticky thread on this forum on the latest notes. Can you name a legend/hero based game where every hero/legend is meta and viable? The ALGS now has more variety than ever when it comes to legend picks.

    @pandareno1999Agreed. They've done a decent job of balancing the roster of legends given how many they have at this point.

    When the new legend for S15 drops (Catalyst?) they'll probably tweak a few of them. For example, I'd personally like to see Lifeline get her revive shield back but with HP (powered by her KD shield like Newcastle?) this time and possibly resized or reshaped.
