Apex Legends pro Albralelie explains why Ranked rework is healthier for the game TSM\/RespawnApex Legends pro Mac \u2018Albralelie\u2019 Beckwith delivered a harsh assessment about the previous state of Apex Legends\u2019 ranked system, stating that the recent revamp has given some home truths to players. The Ranked part of Apex Legends has always been the go-to mode for players wanting to prove their skills and rub shoulders with some of the best around. Though, the previous system drew plenty of criticism as players were able to skyrocket up the leaderboards and then hog the top spots. That has since changed with the release of Apex Legends Season 13, as Respawn have reworked the Ranked system entirely. The changes have proven to be pretty popular with players, even if some complaints do linger. For TSM\u2019s Albralelie, he believes the new system is good for the game because the previous iteration was like a \u201cparticipation trophy\u201d with players getting to the top ranks fairly easy. The Apex Legends star addressed the new system during a stream, saying that players haven\u2019t \u201cgotten worse\u201d at the game, but they were \u201cmisled\u201d by the previous Ranked setup into believing that they were better than they are. \u201cThe system caters to you being able to actually improve as you climb, not just \u2018I\u2019m going to play and I\u2019m going to rank up\u2019,\u201d he said, pointing to how some players may have been diamond and above previously, but are now more in the silver and gold regions of ranked because of the changes. \u201cDon\u2019t get defeated because you\u2019re like \u2018man I was masters last season now I\u2019m stuck in gold, f**k this game\u2019. No, that\u2019s not the mindset. It\u2019s like, damn man, that shows me how bad the ranked system really was.\u201d Albralelie also followed up with a lengthy comment on Reddit addressing his own thoughts. \u201cThe overall point I was trying to make, was to not be discouraged by this new ranked system because it\u2019s one that will actively turn you into a better player,\u201d he added. He also claimed that the matchmaking is \u201chorrendous\u201d at the minute for gold and platinum players because they are regularly being matched up against Apex Predator lobbies. \u201cIt\u2019s not fun for you guys to fight us and vice versa, you guys get negative RP and we don\u2019t get rewarded either, it\u2019s a lose\/lose.\u201d On the matchmaking issues, Respawn have already stated the mixed lobbies are \u201cfully intended\u201d but should only happen at times where it is a struggle to populate the lobby. As things move forward, Ranked may undergo some other tweaks to address some of the lingering complaints players have, but plenty are on board with Albralelie\u2019s direct take on things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
