Being Pro at Apex Legends

November 9, 2020 | Posted in Video Games | By

Do you want to be more pro at Apex Legends? Read this post. Watch the embedded twitch video. The author of this post is level 226 at Apex Legends, Gold IV in ranked. He’s not “good”, definitely not “pro”, he’s simply a guy who has played the game a lot, especially on King’s Canyon and World’s Edge. Quit dropping new maps, do you notice how your daily players Decrease when you drop a new map?

Dropping from the Airship

If you’ve never played the game before, drop Immediately. The more reps one Practices in what amounts to Extremely Quick Combat, the better one, in theory, will get in the Combat Dynamics of Apex Legends.

Lifeline’s rez you with her healing drone With a Shield is OP’d. She’s mandatory in ranked matches and, apparently, Watson. If becoming Apex Predator is which team of three hides in a building with Caustic, Watson, and Bloodhound the Best, well, I’m never going to be Apex Predator. That, and I’m not good enough to progress past Gold.

Learn the jump step. I’m not trying to show you how pro I am in these embedded Twitter videos, I’m trying to show you how quickly the Combat Mechanics operate. As a new player, the best thing you can do for yourself is drop immediately. Use your game time practicing picking up gear and engaging in Combat. Once you have a gun and a shield, start looking for the enemy. A second gun is nice. Look for the enemy, don’t loot boxes, unless it’s for the shield. Pick up all the ammo even if you don’t have the gun, leaving less ammunition for your opponents.

The Jump – Ranked

When jumping in ranked matches, rotate your view 360 degrees and watch the teams drop. The strategy is different, you’re trying to finish in the Top 10. This post isn’t for competitive gamers, the post is for people who enjoy playing the game and desire to be better. Watching Ninja being pro at Apex Legends doesn’t help me become better. Reps in the game help me become better.

Look to jump 180 degrees (to the “sides”) opposed to along the drop ship flight path. Be patient. After watching the teams jump, because you rotated your view 360 degrees, and observing 180 degrees, you’ll find “space” in the map on either “sides” of the drop ship. Drop in that “space” and work your way to a Top 10 finish.

Don’t be a loot whore

On a “hot drop”, meaning you’re jumping Immediately, or jumping the “blue circle”, finding the enemy is more important than gear once you have a gun and a shield. Being a loot whore leads to poor team spacing. The simplest way to gear in Apex Legends is wining the Combat Mechanics and eliminating enemy squads. On a “hot drop”, two extra magazines of ammunition is enough. Share with your teammates. Three stacks of ammunition is enough until you get purple backpack and are one of the last three teams.

When Lifeline rezzes you after eliminating an enemy squad, fix your shield and health, then Loot the boxes. Lifeline is in the rear with the gear in squad spacing.

Ranked Ideal Comp

Bloodhound, Lifeline, Caustic. Don’t @ me.

Bloodhound leads the charge, Caustic throws gas and traps, Lifeline is in the rear with the gear in case someone gets dropped. Combat occurring inside structures can be easily identified with the enemy easily marked every six seconds during beast of the hunt in the fog of Caustic Haze.

Five ways to be better at Apex Legends

  1. Learn the jump step
  2. Learn the map and use the Environment
  3. Be on top of things. Buildings, boxes, vehicles, walls, etc., etc.
  4. Be mildly thirsty for the kill
  5. Don’t be a Loot Whore

New England v New York Jets

Week 9 of the 2020 NFL Season (COVID edition) concludes with the New England Patriots visiting the hapless New York Jets on Monday Night Football.

We like to publish about the NFL Draft and NFL Predictions.

This week, the spread is double digits and had we followed our adage of laying action on a NFL spread because it is double digits, always taking the points, we would have gone 2-0 in those games instead of 0-1.

Instead of wagering on the spread, we wagered on Under 42. New England 27, New York Jets 10.

Some AmazinglyLeet Call of Duty WWII Videos

September 16, 2017 | Posted in Video Games | By

What are the best guns or best gun in Call of Duty WWII?  I played Beta Labor Day Weekend and made some videos.  Below, a view of the guns, attachments secondaries, lethals and tacticals available through Level 35.  This beta run didn’t give a preview of max level gear.

 

 

What’s different than previous releases?  They changed the game with ExoMovements in Advanced Warfare and now, in WWII, they’re doing away with the perk system, replacing them with a combination of 5 Division Choices, each with different Abilities, and Basic Training Choice.  These two facets completely alter the game.  Plus, no exomovements.  Below, a video showing the different Division Choices and capabilities.  What’s the best division in Call of Duty WWII?  I really liked Airborne and was frustrated I wasn’t able to learn the Classified SubMachine gun for this Division.  What is the best SMG in cod wwii?

Also, below, a video about the different Basic Training Choices.  What’s the best Basic Training choice or option?  Want to shoot down the plethora of Spy Planes in cod wwii?  You’ll have to take Launcher as your Basic Training to carry one of three Launcher (secondary) options.  You’ll practice leading the enemy spy plane with the launcher, there was no lock-on in the 1940s …

 

What’s the best Basic Training Option in cod wwii?  I liked Hustle.  Reload faster.  CoD WWII … this is how you get the perk known as Dexterity (Infinite WarFare), Sleight of Hand (Black Ops) … reloading faster has always been one of the most popular ability choices in the Call of Duty Franchise.

What is the best SMG in COD WWII?  I liked the PPSH-41.  One of the cool things about CoD wwii is the actual weapon names were utilized … their correct historical game … and let’s face it, we all needed a game where it was boots on the ground, I’ve already started practicing the drop shot.

Below are a couple videos Call of Duty:WWII featuring PPSH-41 game play on four different maps.

And hey, if you read this far and clicked on the videos … could you like them?  And if you didn’t like them, then subscribe and tell me.

CoD Infinite Warfare Master Prestige Grind

January 30, 2017 | Posted in Video Games | By

 

Want to make levels in CoD Infinite Warfare?  Always be working on challenges which require you to change your class and be outside your comfort level.  Scavenger and Tac Resist are hardly my first choices for Perk 2.  Complete the challenges and never have to use them again is my philosophy.

What game mode offers the best XP?  A winning game of Domination worth 33,490 XP.  Okay Team Deathmatch lovers, show me Your evidence your preferred Game Mode offers better XP over the course of 10 prestige levels. Factors like winning the match and performance (Score Per Minute) are huge factors … running around with the same gun and the same perks and the same attachments and the same Scorestreaks putting up 35/10 with 4 captures and 6 defends every game and you’re going to make prestige levels quickly.

I’m an average player in performance.  Nothing special, currently .92 K/D,  1.0 Win/Loss Ratio, mostly because I’m making these prestige levels solo.  Playing match after match after match of Domination, the best XP game mode Regardless of CoD Release.  It always has been.

In the video, 33,490 XP in a single game of Domination … I finished Tier 5 of Scavenger with the HVR, maybe the best gun in the game, certainly at the top of the SMG tier although the Erad is far sexier because it’s an energy weapon.  You want to make prestige levels … neither one of these guns are going to leave you feeling shorted.

In the second half of the game, I switched to Akimbo Kendall 44s.  During this half of the domination game, I’m working on several challenges simultaneously.  Career pistol kills … sigh … 750 … a K/D ratio takes a hit completing these challenges, although I was 24/16 in this particular game.  I got 2 Nosebreaker Medals, Akimbo and Auto Sear Attachment Kills, to go with Cold Blooded Perk 2 progress and continuing to try and progress on Tac Resist.  Not a lot of players using the “stunning” tactical equipment, it’s by far the most difficult challenge of the tier.  I need more Death From Above Medals because jumping and sliding AND killing … Let me tell you why it’s difficult … it requires a gaming “rotation” to execute … jumping, aiming, And shooting … it’s difficult to do 3 things at the same time and move your left thumb … improving at jumping and sliding is going to improve your K/D and SPM, you’re going to make prestige levels faster.

I’m just someone who likes to make Master Prestige in CoD games.  Why not write about them and make YouTube Videos?  I already have the channel with Azeroth Content.  I’ll always be a gamer and look forward to seeing how my content Ends Up in Google Page Rankings.  GreenGoblin HD, you have sexy hits.  You’re sharing Beta a month before the release but you don’t have the “blog” to accompany.

I want to get clicks because the content is relevant and helpful.

CoD Infinite Warfare Best Guns

January 29, 2017 | Posted in Video Games | By

What is the best Gun in Cod Infinite Warfare?

Theories and opinions will always vary greatly.

My opinion … it depends on play style and the game mode of choice.  I’m a rusher having played approximaely 1,000 games of Domination reaching Prestige Level 7.  I play Domination because there’s an objective and spawns are somewhat controlled.  Team Deathmatch, or Team CampMatch as I prefer to call it, doesn’t suit my play style because the games are too short.  I want to play for 15 consecutive minutes, rack up 30-40 kills, and have ample opportunity for ScoreStreaks.  I end up with around 10,000 XP when I win.

Above is an opinion on the best gun in CoD Infinite Warfare.  The Erad.  “Rusher” play style favors SMGs and ShotGuns over Assault Rifles because of movement speed.

 

Above, the SMGs currently available listing the HVR and Erad as the two best.  Shotguns?

It doesn’t get any better than the Rack 9 Smoothbore, phenomenal range, usually one shot, one kill.  I wouldn’t recommend missing and I prefer to call this Gun the Rage Quitter.

So there you go, an opinion on the best guns in CoD Infinite Warfare.  Now google, page rank me.  Watch my videos.  Maybe you can “like” them.
