Pick rate data can be valuable for players across all experience levels in Apex Legends. It\u2019s handy for anyone looking to switch up the main Legend they\u2019re using. The pick rate numbers are pulled from a database of 25 million players, so while it doesn\u2019t include the entire player base for the battle royale, it\u2019s still a big sample size that offers some great insight. Apex Legends Pick Rates Here are the current pick rates for each Legend as of August 7, 2024. Make sure to check back regularly as we\u2019ll keep you updated as the percentages change and various pick rates move up and down. Pick rate data via ApexLegendsStatus. The most used Legends in Apex Legends Season 22 As of the start of Season 22, Pathfinder is the most popular Legend in the battle royale. The movement specialist has sat high in the meta for a while and now reins at the top of the list. Octane and Lifeline are following just behind in second and third place respectively. While Mad Maggie had a big popularity boost in Season 21 thanks to her upgrades that drastically changed her entire kit, her pick rate has since dropped down the list. Finally, rounding out the top 5 pick rate placements are Wraith and Bloodhound. Most played characters A higher pick rate doesn\u2019t always equal a more effective Legend, but the current build of the game has seen the same few characters occupy the top spots for a while now. While mainstays like Wraith, Octane, and Pathfinder are still around, there\u2019s always a fluctuation in the order. Wraith Wraith was the face of the game back at launch, and it\u2019s easy to see why. Her abilities have yet to be replaced or challenged, even by Ash, with her portal allowing for smooth and strategic rotations. Alongside her phase, you can take more risks and still retreat with your life intact. Wraith hasn\u2019t exactly stuck around in the pro meta, and the slew of nerfs that have hit her over the years since she dominated when Apex was released have knocked her down a peg. However, she remains a popular and fun pick for most players. Pathfinder Pathfinder has slowly managed to reclaim his spot as the top mobility-based Legend in Apex Legends. Ever since Season 5, Respawn has continued to adjust Pathfinder\u2019s abilities while also giving other Recons Legends like Bloodhound, Seer, Crypto, and Valkyrie his original ability to scan for upcoming ring locations. Starting in Season 16, his speed on ziplines was doubled, and he can place his ultimate twice as far, which undoubtedly gave him another boost to his pick rate. Additionally, while the friendly robot can no longer interact with Survey Beacons as he is now classified as a Skirmisher, he can instead see inside of incoming Care Packages to shorten his Ultimate\u2019s cooldown. Octane Octane often finds himself in the top spot of the most picked Apex Legends characters. He is a consistently high-picked Legend in Apex despite the nerfs he\u2019s received since the game\u2019s release. His easy-to-use and highly effective abilities make for great solo play but also mean that he fits right in with team-based matches.
