4-year-old Apex Legends player embarrasses opponent with execution A proud father took the opportunity to show off an Apex Legends highlight that came from his four-year-old son, who showed off equal parts patience and ruthlessness on the World\u2019s Edge train. As competitive gaming and esports continues to grow heading into the new decade, it becomes more and more viable to get the kids started early on a pro gaming career. One dad from Poland is already got a future legend in his household, who\u2019s fragging enemies and making highlights before they\u2019ve even gotten to kindergarten. Reddit user sleepek showed off his four and a half-year-old son\u2019s latest \u201chilarious but kinda brutal\u201d elimination, as they surprised a Crypto player just trying to heal themselves inside of a train car. The son of sleepek watched from above as two teams fought each other near the door of a stationary train car, and picked his moment perfectly as leapt down and entered the train behind them. The Crypto player was caught completely off guard as he lowered his weapon and began injecting himself with a medical syringe, allowing sleepek\u2019s son to drop him with three up-close shots of the P2020 to the head. For the young player, his skills appear to be growing rapidly, as just days prior his father posted a clip of the boy\u2019s very first kill ever, in which he downs an opponent with the Triple Take just before succumbing to a grenade. According to the dad, the four-year-old plays on console, and he\u2019s not concerned about his young son playing a \u201cviolent\u201d video game. Some members of the community commented on the title of the father\u2019s original post, which says the son \u201cthinks it is a great feeling to kill another player,\u201d and he responded. \u201cThere are some clear double standards here but I don\u2019t really care,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI mean how hilarious it is to be killed by such a small boy in such a fast-paced game. I don\u2019t need any of your parenting advice cause I know what is best for him and I know that I don\u2019t do any harm.\u201d While Apex Legends does fall under the shooter genre, it is significantly less violent and bloody than some other games in the same genre. Most of the \u201cviolence\u201d is very cartoonish, and the \u201cgreat feeling\u201d that the dad describes is the rush of dopamine that comes from succeeding in any video game. Unfortunately for the young player, he will have to wait a while until he can begin his competitive career. The upcoming Apex Global Series requires competitors to be at least sixteen, so we should mark our calendars for 2032 for when we see his professional debut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
