Apex Legends pro Albraelie wants Respawn to rework Wattson AlbralelieTSM streamer Mac \u2018Albralelie\u2019 Beckwith shared some thoughts on Twitter about Apex Legends\u2019 Wattson and potential changes that could be made. Respawn Entertainment recently announced that Wattson, one of the least popular characters in Apex Legends, will be receiving a buff. This buff will be accompanied by a substantial nerf, as the devs have previously called Wattson \u201cvery powerful.\u201d Wattson continues to polarize both the professional and casual community, as she has the potential to dominate matches, but is very rarely seen doing so. Enter TSM streamer and former pro player, Albralelie, who has made a long tweet-thread full of suggested changes and potential reworks for Wattson. Wattson changes and rework idea Albralelie\u2019s 10 tweet long thread goes into extensive detail about some of his concepts for Wattson going forward. The first of his extensive list is a relatively simple, but effective buff: \u201cfirst basic buff idea: HP increase to fences so they survive a crypto EMP. Super simple buff, wouldn\u2019t change a whole lot when it comes to her effectiveness and is more of a quality of life change more than anything for Wattson players.\u201d First basic buff idea: HP increase to fences so they survive a crypto EMP.

Coming out of a respawn ship you\u2019re essentially not a character, just a gun.\u201d Third basic buff idea: Reduced cooldown to fences without ult being placed could be 10-15s, fence node cooldowns are absolutely terrible without gen especially after just being respawned. Coming out of a respawn ship you\u2019re essentially not a character, just a gun. \u2014 TSMFTX Albralelie (@TSM_Albralelie) July 14, 2021 Albralelie also has multiple ideas for a Wattson rework, the first one bringing changes to how her fences work. Wattson\u2019s fences are one of the strongest parts of her kit, making her a solid chokepoint defender, especially in tighter areas. Making the fences stronger in any way would be a direct buff to her Legends identity. Second rework idea: We’ve seen this around on reddit a lot over the years and lots of people have talked about it, make her gen mobile by activating the one on her back which would remove her ability to place gens all together. Effects stay the same, lasts for 45-60s reduced cd. \u2014 Albralelie (@TSM_Albralelie) July 14, 2021 Some of the rework ideas shared are clearly more drastic than just slight alterations to her already existing abilities, but they are still fun to ponder. Soon we will see what Respawn has in store for the changes coming to Wattson, and if any of Albralelie\u2019s ideas made the cut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
