The war between rival Warzone and Apex Legends continues to heat up, as the two swollen communities look to emerge as the number one battle royale. Warzone has taken a hit in recent weeks. A lackluster Season 4 launch stifled the Raven Software-helmed game\u2019s momentum, and saw an exodus of streaming stars like TimTheTatman, NICKMERCS, and more, many of whom have been leading advocates for the Call of Duty title. On top of that, Respawn is on the verge of dishing up what looks like another stellar content drop in Season 9, complete with a new Legend \u2014 \u201cSeer\u201d \u2014 as well as a huge slate of buffs and nerfs, and even map changes. Now, CouRage has twisted the knife even more. The 100 Thieves co-owner, who just hit \u2018Masters\u2019 in Respawn\u2019s franchise game, has made a bold claim: According to him, Apex Legends is \u201cway better than Warzone.\u201d CouRage, who\u2019s dubbed himself \u201cthe greatest Wraith player in the history of Apex Legends,\u201d returned to Respawn\u2019s battle royale on June 28, and quickly battled his way up the ranked ladder to \u201cMasters\u201d on July 29. The whole time, he said, he was having loads of fun; a lot more, CouRage added, than Warzone had been coughing up in the past few months. The difference, Dunlop explained, was Apex\u2019s ranked lobbies. On Warzone, skill-based matchmaking is met with disdain. In the Apex Legends community, SBMM is welcomed as part of the ranked ecosystem. \u201cWho would\u2019ve thought that playing in skill-based matchmaking lobbies with a rank would make people want to play more!\u201d he tweeted on July 29. \u201cMind-blowing!\u201d It\u2019s crazy to see how many people are talking about how much they enjoy playing Apex Legends ranked\u2026 Who would\u2019ve thought that playing in skill based matchmaking lobbies WITH a rank would make people want to play MORE! Mind blowing thought \ud83e\udd2f \u2014 Jack \u201cCouRage\u201d Dunlop (@CouRageJD) July 29, 2021 CouRage continued: \u201cIt\u2019s definitely the best battle royale available.\u201d \u201cNew Apex Legends season about to drop, ranked mode is so fun. Ranked arenas about to release, new legend coming, and huge balance patch about to happen,\u201d the 100 Thieves star continued. \u201cWayyyyy better than Warzone currently.\u201d On top of the huge ranked differences, CouRage admits he\u2019s \u201calways had a soft spot\u201d for Respawn\u2019s ever-expanding Titanfall-inspired battle royale. The YouTuber has been watching Warzone \u201cdecline\u201d for the past few months. Because of that, he began canvassing other titles to potentially jump ship to. Over the months, the Apex Legends community continued to pop up. It was an easy call, CouRage said, to make the swap. \u201cI\u2019m back on this game [Apex], in part, due to the love the community has always, always shown me on Twitter. Warzone has had its ups and downs, and I love Apex Legends\u2026 I\u2019ve always had a soft spot for it. I was at the venue when it f**king launched! There\u2019s such a dedicated community, it\u2019s crazy.\u201d He had one last Warzone barb too: \u201cI love Warzone, but damn. We get cheated on, we have stream snipers coming after us.
