The Valkyrie and Horizon skins are great too

Glad the free skin is another cute Wattson one though

Maybe because the Volt has better iron sights so there's less need to upgrade it?

Volt is also better at midrange in my experience, and I think has faster reload?

Yeah round 1 3030, especially on phase runner, was just insanely good. You get 1 fully charged shot and a couple more before the other team can even react if you both went through the portal

I'm not watching all that

I'm proud of horizon though

Or sorry that happened

I don't think unplanned "teaming" is "cheating". If it is, then literally every time you third party you're cheating

I genuinely believe their SBMM "hates" certain people. I don't know what does it but you have people in this thread who get a bunch of games near their skill level and constantly get their teammates filled in and have fun matches and then you have people that get nothing but trash panda teammates in pred lobbies or fail to even get teammates at all. Don't know what flips the switch but it's there.

Lol

I only play Arenas now and in the past few weeks I've hardly ever had the "only one partner" bug. On ps4.

Update is 10GB. I’m very excited to play these old maps again.

On ps4 at least it should have actually downloaded yesterday. I found that a nice surprise. It just has an unlock timer on installing it

Hard agree. You get so many wild ambushes, it's like playing lazer tag in a proper big place

I like the Arena price changes, I'm using the RE45 a lot more and it's nice not having round 1 always be a hail of glowing red balls everywhere

Bots are very obvious and I've never seen anything in apex that can't be explained by the player just being a dumbshit.

I think the maps are just too cluttered with buildings and such to make even functional bots

I don't get the impression that Arenas is unpopular at all, in fact on ps4 it seems like Arenas is the dominant mode. It often takes a full minute to match me into a BR game whereas Arenas takes no time at all ever

Even when want to play BR Ill do some arenas for warmup. Its a really nice way to figure out a gun or practice a character.

Arenas is definitely a better Firing Range than the Firing Range

Horizon is busted on Skulltown arena. You get all 3 teammates to whatever roof you want instantly and just dominate.

It's a fun arena map too. Need more vertical based maps.

Agree and sometimes you get fun chases through the lower buildings

duos this season seems way harder than it used to

maybe all the bad players are in arenas, bolstering my bafflingly high for me 50% winrate

I think Arenas is like weed or alcohol are to mood. It just makes you more of whatever you already are. Good players are great in Arenas and bad players are really bad

The other night, and I'm sure I'll never pull this off again, I used a holo spray offensively. I threw it around the corner which actually worked in making someone shoot at it.

Bonus, it was the Wraith "looking for me" one. Ha. I really should have clipped that. Oh and if was in skull town. And it was the last kill of match point.
