There's then a whisper that leads into a song. "Jekyll-and-Hyde-ing me," the raspy voice says as the trailer continues before the beat picks up. The song itself is a metaphor for a number of things in the trailer, not least of which is Revenant hims

Claptrap or CL4P-TP, was created by the Hyperion with a zealous personality. He frequently discusses his loneliness such as the time players attend his birthday party and no one else shows up. The little guy is a bit disappointed but manages to have a good time. It is so bizarre why no one would show up to his party even though pizza and music were pres

Borderlands has the funniest personality on this list. Claptrap is known for his humor and explicit language. Many were upset to hear the original voice actor would not be returning for the third installment. Regardless, the series will still be forever impacted by this annoying, yet funny ro

There are essentially 5 different weapon types: Assault rifle, sniper/long-range rifle, handgun, submachine gun, and shotguns. As you can imagine a shotgun isn't a very good sniper rifle and a sniper rifle simply doesn't cut it in short-range fights. Learning each weapon's optimal range of effectiveness will improve your success in the vicious world of Apex Legends DLC and may even improve your First Person Shooter skills as a wh

Overwatch is full of robots and Bastion is not the only playable one. The reason Bastion makes this list apart from the others is because Bastion has the most personality and the most interesting backstory from the others. Bastion was a front-line automaton before he was lost in the middle of a forest. Over time, the killer robot lost its programm

At the new incarnation of Geyser, which looks far more desolate than before, Revenant shows off the new bolt-action sniper rifle. Called the Sentinel, it purportedly has some type of charge mechanic, though it will be hard to understand how it differs from a weapon such as the Charge Rifle until players can test it on their

The trailer also shows off Revenant’s totem, once again reflecting this Jekyll-and-Hyde theme that shows players in two different physical states. Players who go near it morph into shadow versions of themselves. This is similar to what players saw during Halloween’s Fright or Flight event, which may have secretly been a test event for the shadow abil

Based on my Xbox data, it appears the top one percent of players still put in almost double the time of even those in the 98th percentile. Theoretically, the 98th percentile has spent half as much time in the game and would therefore still not be quite as good as the top one perc

The commercial teases a weapon rack, which is a new feature in the game. For the time being, it seems a new point of interest called Survey Camp will be the only place with weapon racks. They're meant to make it attractive to drop at an otherwise quiet landing area, according to Jason McCord , the Design Director on Apex Legen

Shadow Mode is helpful, but not indestructible: Anyone from the team who touches the Totem becomes a shadow for 25 seconds. However, Shadow Mode doesn’t have Shields and only has 50 Health upon returning to the Totem after death. The Totem’s time is extended based on the last person to become a shadow. Meaning, turning into a shadow when the Totem is only a few seconds from closing will extend the Totem’s timer for another 25 seco

The following is full of assumptions and made-up but easy-to-understand numbers. The goal is to illustrate the math driving the SMBB argument as there’s no accurate game data publicly available for these calculati

The reality is that current SBMM format affects only negatively impacts a minority of players, even if they’re the most active ones. Unfortunately, unbalanced matchmaking will cause less-skilled players to complain the game is "too hard" and play something e

The majority of people complaining about SBMM seem to be in the top echelon of players. Their complaints are valid. But it’s important to look at this as a mathematical challenge. The reality is that without SBMM, even middle-of-the-road casual players have an extremely high chance of being consistently matched with top players against whom they don't stand a cha

Mirage’s ultimate is not only a good escape tactic but also can be used to sneak up on an unsuspecting enemy while your team engages from another direction. Mirage makes the top half because of his ability to distract and maneuver around the enemy te

A walking tank, what Gibraltar loses in movement speed he makes up for in utility. In a wide-open field or the cities, his shield dome can save a team in distress. The combination of his dome and ultimate can push a team away or invite them into a close-quarters shotgun fight that Gibby will likely win with his gun shield act

Compared to other Legends in Apex Legends , Revenant’s toolkit allows him to be better equipped when dealing with extremely aggressive situations, especially when zooming in for the kill after disabling the abilities of enemies. As a member of the Assault Class , Revenant has access to more options to customize his weapons to eliminate his enemies much faster than before. Here’s what the Assault Class offers Revenant players as Season 16: Revelry launches in 2
