While Apex Legends pro players can practice their mechanics, gun skills, and strategies in Ranked, it\u2019s still a completely different environment when compared to competitive matches. As a result, a lot of teams organize scrims which allow pro squads to come together and practice against each other as a collective. These give teams a chance to test out unique strategies, contest landing spots, or just work on their coordination. While a lot of pros see the value in scrims, FURIA star HisWattson explained on stream why he thinks they\u2019re useless and don\u2019t help teams improve. HisWattson claims ALGS scrims do not improve teams During his stream on January 26. HisWattson explained to his viewers why scrims in Apex Legends will \u201cnever be good\u201d for helping teams improve. According to him, as Apex is a battle royale that hosts 20 different teams in a single lobby, it\u2019s possible to \u201close, and it genuinely not be your fault\u201d. This is different for 1v1 games, where it\u2019s easy to identify your mistakes. As a result, he argues that some Apex pros \u201cuse that as an excuse\u201d and don\u2019t look to improve their gameplay. Instead, choosing to blame their losses on problems in matches that are \u201cout of their control\u201d. In his experience, most \u201cpeople don\u2019t lose scrims and go wow, we should play better\u201d, they prefer to say \u201cwe got griefed\u201d or \u201cthis team contested us, they\u2019re stupid\u201d. For him, this attitude towards scrims where the majority of teams \u201cdon\u2019t care\u201d about the result, makes them a poor environment for improving as a squad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends pro HisWattson explains why ALGS scrims are useless Respawn Entertainment\/Twitch: HisWattsonFURIA pro Jacob \u2018HisWattson\u2019 McMillin believes that Apex Legends scrims will \u201cnever\u201d be good for helping ALGS teams improve.
