Her ultimate ability "rolling thunder" is a powerful airstrike which operates as a power area denial style move. Forcing enemy teams inside of buildings its an excellent tool to prevent enemies from approaching your team or using a common choke po

DUMMIEs Big Day (January 26-27): Nobody seems to know what this mode is all about. If we had to take a guess, judging by the fact that everyone seems to look like a brightly colored crash test dummy, it’s likely that this mode makes it so you can’t see which characters the other teams have chosen. It’s either that, or it may be the first mode that involves A.I.-controlled bots for players to shoot freely. Guess we’ll find out when the mode goes live on the 26

The master of Mobility, Pathfinder is the perfect champion for World’s Edge. He can zipline his team up high (where most gunfights are won) to shoot down on enemies. He can grapple in and out of fights with e

With void walking capabilities and Dimensional Rift at her disposal, it is not hard to see why Wraith ranks in at number two on a map that requires mobility. Gaining the high ground and escaping a disadvantageous fight is the name of the game on World’s Edge. Phasing out of danger or into a flanking position is where Wraith excels at the individual le

Destiny 2: Shadowkeep may not be the biggest expansion set in Destiny's history, but it has elevated Destiny 2 to a place players always hoped the game would get to. There is so much awesome content to pursue and such an interesting, meaningful grind. Two months later and my raid team is still getting together most nights to play crucible, run the Pit of Heresy dungeon, or raid. Even jaded vanilla Destiny 2 players have come back and found the game they always wanted. Destiny 2: Shadowkeep is the most fun I've had in any game this y

Some have suggested that instead of matchmaking based on skill, lower-skilled players should grind harder and play better in order to compete with top players. First of all, not everyone has 3,000 hours a year to put into a video game. But more importantly, I'm not really sure how a person can improve when they're getting clobbered every game. After a certain point, it probably wouldn't matter anyway because the player would eventually find a different game that's more fun for t

Caustic makes for an excellent "camping" character. Once set up it is near impossible to rush a good caustic. Make use of his oppressive nox trap and nox gas grenade to dish out high amounts of damage over time on his enem

LIVE. DIE. LIVE (January 16 - 17): As long as one member of your team is alive, the entire team will respawn when the ring closes, so make sure everyone you meet is good and dead or their friends might make a comeb

Top Apex Legends Strategy Legends players are making impassioned pleas for game developer Respawn to do away will skill-based matchmaking (SBMM). From their perspectives, it’s not fair that public matches feel as competitive — if not more competitive — than ranked games . This is indeed problematic, as ranked exists specifically so top players can compete at a top-tier level. Players who play public matches shouldn’t be subject to the same level of competitive p

Lifeline can be useful in almost any team comp with her healing ability and her passive. Add to that regular drops of purple armor and she is is a solid choice, even though her playmaking ability is limited. She shines as a support, but the reason she ranks in the bottom half is that she is rarely put to good

The event is on right now and will run until January 28, so if you want to get the fanciest skins that gaming can offer, then you’re probably going to want to log into Apex Legends and get involved in the Grand Soirée Arc

Technically now the "third" version of what is perhaps the perfect game, the Resident Evil 2 remake updates a classic and shows developers that narrative-driven content can succeed without the need for multiplayer and microtransacti

The internet is full of rumors of a live-action Legend of Zelda project on Netflix, but the majority of those appear to be based on speculation and rumors that turned out to be false . The most recent rumor claimed Castlevania producer Adi Shankar would be helming the series , but the project in question was acutally one based on Devil May C

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

Finally, Bloodhound's "Beast of the Hunt" increases his speed while allowing him to see through smoke and gasses alongside buffing his other abilities. The recent buff to this ultimate allows Bloodhound to use this move for a longer duration and gets it faster. This ability alone can turn the tides of bat
