Your top 5 legends.

So we know there are plenty of lists out there telling you who the best legends are. But i would like to know what the communities top 5 personal favourites are, feel free to explain why!

I'll guess i'll get the ball rolling soooo....

  1. Wattson-great for area control,creating choke points, triple ult makes for a powerful support system in final circles.
  2. Wraith- i use her mainly for hit and run tactics, popping up in unexpected areas to wreak havoc in gunfights.
  3. Pathfinder-high mobility plus his use of survey beacons is great for anticipating circles.
  4. Mirage- great for playing mind games with the enemy, flanking and just causing general mayhem.
  5. Bangalore- extremely versatile, great in support and attack.

    1. Pathfinder: Almost perfect legend with the highest mobility in Apex. He's unpredictable in movement and the passive is very useful in high ranked games. His ultimate can relocate the whole team immediately in bad situation.

    2. Wraith: a self survival queen. Her ultimate is the 2nd relocation tool just after Pathfinder.

    3. Lifeline: Simply put, she's the queen of 1vs1 with smallest hitbox and fast recharge/heal.

    I still play abit of other legends when im bored. But this is my top 3

    My bottom 2:

    Octane: run run run, good for nothing.

    Mirage: boring

  • 1. Mirage - I mained Mirage since he was released but hated his Ult. Ever since the buff, he's been perfect. People still fall for decoys in fast-paced fights, so it really helps the team know where people are. And his Ult is good for charging or escaping. A very versatile Legend.

    2. Octane - He's quick with a smaller hitbox. Nothing too fancy, but he gets the job done.

    3. Wraith - Good for quick escapes. Also, her Ult is good for outrunning the circle. Combine that with a tiny hitbox and she's a good addition to any play style.

    4. Bloodhound - Didn't really care for him at first, but ever since they fixed his tactical, it's been great.

    5. Gibraltar - Didn't like him at first because of how big of a target he was. Now that they gave him the Fortified passive, I've started to use him more... especially with these challenges. He's got a different kind of escape plan if you can use his dome shield right.

  • 1. Pathfinder - Plays chess while other characters plays checkers. Wonky hitbox, simply the best.

    2. Octane - I like movement based characters so having stims whenever is right in my wheelhouse

    3. Caustic - So fun since the buffs. Always feel confident I can 1v3 a sqaud under the right circumstances

    4. Wattson - Playing support is fun change of pace sometimes

    5. Bangalore - Smokes are incredible

  • 1. Caustic - Didn't play him much until late into S1, by now he's become my clear favourite. I just love placing traps.

    2. Pathfinder - Dude's just swinging around like a mechanical Spider-Man, and I'm totally there for it. Also lovely.

    3. Gibraltar - Another big dude. I just like his look and his attitude... and his ultimate is simply the best. Sad I missed the Iron Crown skin.

    4. Mirage - I totally enjoy sending decoys all over the place, and he's just an entertaining character.

    5. Wraith - Only made this list since I got the Liberator skin. Now I enjoy playing her a lot more. Style > a lot of other things.

    Bottom 2 would be:

    Octane - Just doesn't click with me. "Faster faster faster!" just isn't my way of doing things.

    Wattson - She's both delight- and useful, but playing her just isn't as much fun for me.

    Gotta say i'm pretty surprised to see some gibbi's in these top 5s! He doesn't seem to get a lot of play time to be honest.

    I like playing as a the big dude on occasion, i tend to get a lot of kills with him but generally struggle to get the win as him. He's a fun once in a while for me. 😛

    Great thread. Pathfinder has the most nods, I guess everyone loves being spider-bot.

    Tied for least-loved are Wattson and Gibraltar.

  • 1.Mirage

    No greater satisfaction than an epic bamboozle

    2.Octane

    Stim,Stim and more stim, has amazing ability to get in and out of fights when needed

    3.Bloodhound

    Love at first sight,

    Great outfit

    Great accent

    Great abilities

    Was my main when I started the game,and still loving him

    4.Caustic

    IM IN LOVE WITH BUNKER

    5.Lifeline

    The only character who I feel needs no skills to play(change my mind)

    Whenever one of my teammates get downed,i normally love to revive them right away instead of fighting,so lifeline helps me there

  • @SS_Mabezan  lifeline actually takes skill to play.

    You need good situational awareness and on point positioning at all times.

    You have no ability to escape.

    Your ultimate is only really any good early game, and even then it's a dice roll.

    Which leaves you with one useful passive and one circumstantial passive.

  • @SS_Mabezan  yeah that ULT is essentially like firing off a flare gun too haha, anyone who spots knows exactly where you are. Blindly using it can bring down a sh**storm on you if you aint careful. 😛
