Did The Pros Get Bangalore's Kit Ruined? - Apex Legends Season 22

[@MxhitShxrma]

I think it's stupid to cater the meta to pros since the majority (99.99%) of your user base are the non-pros.

[@Thirdleg4sale]

That and all the supposed pros are almost all cheating. If your a solo player without a team makes this game even worse to play. That is why I stopped playing after season 4. Solo play is impossible if you are a casual player.

[@thenapols6483]

They ruined the kraber as well

[@WerdnAGK]

I feel like they nerfed the kraber to 140 body shot just to piss me off in gun run

[@MtHermit]

Honestly, the "pros" have ruined most of the core of Apex. I still play it, but mostly for what it was than for what it is

[@markwilson2421]

I've been playing since season 1 and every season gets better and better.

​@@markwilson2421I have as well and I don't agree.

​@@markwilson2421 You must play a different game 😂

[@MtHermit]

​@@markwilson2421yeah we may have more than 8 legends and 1 map but quantity doesn't mean quality. This game felt far more polished on release and hit its peak in season 3. After that it's been a ton of up and down with balance issues, bugs, shitty servers, constant audio issues, cheaters on all platforms and pros dictating the changes in this game.

[@panzer00]

They should balance the game around pubs/ranked and ALGS individually. Give the "pros" a version specific to the ALGS.

[@crod79]

Being able to see inside smoke literally makes no sense tho lol

[@mogiman8324]

For the life of me I don't understand how Activision of all companies is the only ones to get this right. Make a pro league mode for them to scrim and play in which allows you to not fuck up the base game for the rest of us

[@romarioortega86]

what happened with the gold shotgun bolt at 8:35 ?

[@kratos255255]

I'll go ahead and blame the pros! Thats all respawn cares about, is catering to their money makers that complain!

[@TheN2pster]

catering to pros in any game does not end well for casuals:D Maybe only in full esport games like counter strike.

[@cameronreyno7175]

Her passive is insane IMO. It's like a free Octane stim every time you get shot at. At least for Octane to go fast he's gotta sacrifice a little HP. Bangalore just flies around like a maniac every time I fire at her. I also find her smoke to be particularly annoying because I hate low visbility. I have the same issue with Caustic gas, Horizon's black hole, etc. anything that prevents me from seeing properly. Bangalore's ultimate isn't great but can cover a lot of ground and if you do happen to catch an enemy in the blast, the stun effect lasts a long ass time so it's potentially a free kill.

[@Tekknight007]

Some things I feel about Buffs and Nerfs With proper effort and training, regular players can pull off some of the techniques that Pros pull off It should be once goal to get as good as they can add a game that they take seriously. If you're not taking a game that seriously, not only should you not care about winning or losing that much, but you probably aren't good enough to be as affected by changes as you think you are. If a character has a weaker kit that is hard to balance without overpowering more fun should be added into that kit.. I usually look at fighting games as the basis of how the Buffs and Nerfs can work. In that genre it is easier to see the effects of slight changes. The overall goals should be balance and Justified pick rates. On top of that. The idea is that regular players either by watching the techniques of the pros, or just buy perfecting their own skill will eventually play at a level similar to pros. In which case imbalance truly shows.

[@ScarletSesh]

The "pros" derailed any and all enjoyment I had for this game with their demands making drastic changes that seem to be much more important to the developers than the casual fan or player.

[@KorrilaNHS]

I did not get the jump into PS5 part until it literally cuts into the building😂

With the LOL Worlds on at the moment, what team do you support or follow? Love the vid.

[@felixcortes5005]

Her slight buff made her just a bit better. Taking her down a notch makes no sense. Bang is one of the most balanced legends.

[@saintrubes8346]

I was a bang main since the very beginning, but when they took the damage away from the smoke it broke my heart and now she’s always highlighted in her smoke so what is she for then??? I stopped playing since last year it’s just sad…

[@nickbrungs7347]

The pros shouldn't have anything to do with how the game is done what so ever

[@mini941]

to be fair, is there really a "bad" legend ? i feel like if you hv the gun skill it doesnt really matter who you play

[@josephm3994]

I agree with u bro...all these ppl in here complaining because they're just ass at the game lmao don't play it then if it's so "bad". Nerds just love to complain hahahahaha

[@MtHermit]

@@josephm3994 a lot of these "nerds" that are "ass at the game" are in fact not ass at the game and are complaining because the core of game has changed so much since launch. All while the majority of the issues the game has had are still big issues. For example the sound is still fucked and the servers are still 20 tick servers. Every time they update the game, it breaks. So a lot of us "nerds" are pissed about a game we love. Get over yourself kiddo

[@walkermott1750]

I don't understand the nerf to her passive tbh.

[@veemoose]

No, the pros got Bloodhound's kit ruined 😢

[@total_gabroni_3]

BH is my original main. What did they do?

[@Mechtardedidiot]

Agreed, BH has a horrible kit with the changes made. Just revert it amd tune it down slightly should be the fix. Really has so little viability as he is now.

[@veemoose]

@@total_gabroni_3 Not sure of the full extent of the nerfs, but they took away the ult highlighting working through smokes, they made scanning birds charging ult a perk instead of a built-in ability, and the addition of all recon legends getting enemy highlighting on ADS was sort of an indirect nerf to BH ult Also I'm pretty sure they removed knocks in ult adding to the timer. Basically just a ton of ult nerfs over time 😅

[@MtHermit]

​​@@veemooseand being able to scan every few seconds while in ult. Now it's maybe 2 scans per ult

[@withmywholesoul]

Whilst I understand the pros having some weight on the meta because yes we are on the message boards and reddit pages, but the pros have massive audiences. That being said, allowing the majority of your players to suffer for the sake of the few, pretty shit business model

[@wildmantattoo433]

Rich, love the content, still! It’s sad to me how much negativity there is in all the Apex comments with people wanting the game to die when there are 18 million daily players in 2024. I quit Cod years ago because of the half a second gunfights, and honestly, there is no other fun game for me, out there, right now. Valorant looks like a pc game from early 2000, cod is still cod, Fortnite is kids play, Finals has no depth past the one game mode type, etc. etc. I love the depth and skill ceiling of Apex, and have yet to see anything that will even come close to pulling me away. Keep it going, brother!

[@jakeatarashigames]

"of course they HAVE to make changes to characters that effect the best players." No they don't. Thats a stupid way to balance a game. The best players are a tiny percentage of overall players. Less than 1% of 1%. They shouldn't make ANY changes to the game based on a player sampling of that size, even if they are the best players. beyond that, the best players in the game have concerns that are completely out of whack with the rest of the player base. its absurd to make changes that effect the entire player base to serve the absolute smallest number of players. The game would be better off with pros and their input.

[@iTemp2]

Assuming those players only ever play against each other, which is obviously not the case.

[@YeldStuff]

@@iTemp2 That's not even a factor.

Loba Q*

[@Stewiecookie]

Everyone loves to blame the pros for balance changes while simultaneously ignoring that everything that’s done in competition and on stream bleeds into the casual playerbase. Meta’s start at the top and trickle down into ranked then to pubs 100% of the time. Catering to the pros makes more sense for the overall health of the game than catering to the casual players. They don’t want to hear that though.

[@MtHermit]

And that's exactly why they are to blame for the state of the game. It's catered to the pros and the casuals have to deal with it.

[@Stewiecookie]

@@MtHermitif everything that pros abuse and metas they created stayed around for casual players this game would be insufferable. You complaining that changes they make based on higher level play is simply ignorance. Every broken meta that pros have ever used immediately became a cancer in pubs and that’s why it gets changed. You only benefit from those things staying in the game if you suck.

[@MtHermit]

​@@Stewiecookieyou understand that you're saying something very similar to what I am right? The pros are cancer. You said it, I agree. Every shit thing that happens in this game starts with them taking advantage of some broken balance issues or complaining about RNG or the ring or the kraber, etc. The ALGS and Ranked should have no merit on how the pub game is balanced. Apex is a shit state and it's the cancer the pros bring to the game

[@Stewiecookie]

@@MtHermit if this game was balance around casual players it would be the most disgustingly horribly balanced game in existence. You’re saying pro play is a problem to balance around, I am saying it is the best way to balance the game. There’s nothing similar in what we’re saying at all. You can’t reliably see how something is balanced on a group of players who have skill levels all across the board. If you have a large group of very good players then you know that individual skill is having minimal impact while the balance of legends and weapons are having a noticeable impact. If every good player is using the same legend/weapons that is a clear indicator that those are giving them an advantage and thus are stronger(unbalanced). I don’t want unbalanced crap in my casual or ranked games so I’m glad the pros highlight it.

[@MtHermit]

​@@StewiecookieHaving a wide variety of skill levels to use for balancing is clearly the best way to balance. You get a much better sample of your player base. Having a small sample size of the very best players makes no sense at all. Why use the data from only the best players and disregard 99% of your player base? It's dumb.
