Apex Legends flavour 12 is hitting the midway point of the season, and equally always, information technology has somewhat settled. Although many flocked to Mad Maggie at release, she has fallen in the pick rates quite hard, and Octane and Wraith keep to dominate picks. Of course, ranked Apex Legends players are likewise preparing for the setback that'll accompany the upcoming Ranked Split.

At that time, not merely will players be set up back in Ranked, just the map will as well change. For many players, which map is currently the focus of Ranked is a big deal. Because of the size, because of the popular drop zones, how well certain weapons play in an area, and and then on, the map can impact how Noon Legends matches go. A large change is coming with the Ranked Carve up.

Currently, players are on Apex Legends' Olympus map. This map is quite wide and open, allowing for ameliorate long-ranged combat and its spread allows players to play they desire to play, aggressively or otherwise. Indeed, Olympus may be many'south preferred map compared to Kings Canyon, World'due south Edge, and Tempest Point, and it stands in contrast to its replacement.

The Apex Legends Ranked Dissever Date is prepare for Apr five; information technology is possible the recent Kings Canyon bug delays this but not likely. Just as it is with every major Apex Legends update, players can look it to become live around 10 AM PT/12 PM CT. Players will too be migrating from Olympus to Kings Canyon, which is much smaller and tighter than Olympus. Non only does this impact the timing and size of many fights, but it's much more in and out of buildings and the like.

It'southward going to be a big change, but for many, Kings Canyon is their favorite map. It's the original map (even if information technology has had a few changes) and has a special place in many early players' hearts. As such, not but does it modify the full general gameplay approach, simply it may very well bring in many older players also. It'll exist interesting to run into how that goes, but Kings Canyon always draws eyes—one way or another.

Of grade, the second half of Noon Legends ever seems to become faster than the beginning half. While the Dissever Date is fast-approaching, Apex Legends flavour 13 doesn't seem far behind. Teasers will likely begin within the next few weeks, and there are no doubt rumors almost the new Apex Legends season xiii grapheme will start cropping upwards. For now, though, players may best spend their time preparing for Kings Canyon.
