Albralelie explains why he\u2019s finally planning switch to controller in Apex Legends EAApex Legends star Mac \u2018Albralelie\u2019 Beckwith is considering finally giving in and swapping over to controller, saying that there is \u2018no reason\u2019 for anyone to stick to mouse and keyboard in competitive play. The debate between using a controller and mouse and keyboard has raged on in games for many years, but when it comes to Apex Legends, things have gotten increasingly fiery over the last few months. Many of the top pros \u2013 including TSM\u2019s ImperialHal, who won the Stage 1 playoffs and claimed MVP honors \u2013 have switched to controller because of the aim assist benefits they get from it. Some critics have likened the aim assist to a \u201csoft aimbot,\u201d whereas controller players have criticized just how much of an advantage KB\/M players have when it comes to movement. There have been a number of notable holdouts among popular players, however, Albralelie is planning to finally make the switch to controller as he believes there is \u2018no reason\u2019 to stick to mouse and keyboard. Albralelie planning to finally switch to controller for Apex Legends The former longtime TSM pro, who now represents the orgless \u2018LANimals\u2019 squad, addressed the potential switch to \u2018the dark side\u2019 on his May 14 stream, noting that it\u2019s too tough for mouse and keyboard players right now. \u201cI just don\u2019t see a point to stay on MNK because it feels like everybody I fight is on \u2018roller, so I\u2019m at a natural disadvantage anytime I peak into anybody,\u201d he said. \u201cI just don\u2019t see a point. Movement just doesn\u2019t matter in comp. It just straight up doesn\u2019t matter.\u201d Albralelie noted that he \u201cshould\u201d make the switch if he\u2019s focusing on competitive play as it\u2019s \u201cmore consistent\u201d but if he competed outside of Apex, he would using mouse and keyboard. Though, it\u2019s \u201cunlikely\u201d he\u2019d compete in anything other than Apex. He even echoed those sentiments on Twitter, as he tweeted: \u201cCan\u2019t think of a reason as a competitor to stay on MnK. For casual play MnK is fine, but to compete? Idk man, I think roller is just better in every way if you\u2019re capable of playing it. Probably gonna hang up the keys and swap in this 2-month off-season we\u2019ve got.\u201d It remains to be seen if there will be a further exodus to controller, but for now, it looks like mouse and keyboard is losing one of the last big holdouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
