If you tuned into the Apex Legends scene on its rise in the battle royale genre, there\u2019s every chance you\u2019ve seen a clip or two from Dizzy. He quickly became one of the most-followed personalities in the community due his extraordinary movement and sharp aim. However, his run at the top of the title quickly came to an abrupt halt in December 2019. With a newfound focus on streaming over pro play, this career shift soon saw the 20-year old step away from the internet altogether. After months of radio silence, dizzy is now back to streaming on a more casual basis, though Apex Legends isn\u2019t his main title anymore. In his first time playing the game on stream for Lulu\u2019s Throwdown event, dizzy explained what drove him to quit the title. Why Dizzy quit Apex Legends When asked why he stepped away from Apex Legends, dizzy had a simple answer for his viewers on Twitch: \u201cI just stopped enjoying it.\u201d \u201cSitting in a queue, landing, looting, you get sh*t loot, bad RNG, you die, you\u2019re back in the queue waiting again. It\u2019s very repetitive,\u201d he outlined. \u201cI feel like it\u2019s easy to burnout on,\u201d he said. \u201cEspecially if you\u2019re streaming 8+ hours a day.\u201d Dizzy still rates Apex Legends as the \u201cbest BR\u201d This process remains similar throughout the entire battle royale genre. Therefore, Dizzy made it clear that\u2019s where his issues lied, not with anything specific in Apex Legends. \u201cThis game\u2019s not bad, this game\u2019s good. It\u2019s definitely one of the best, if not the best BR game to play, but it\u2019s just exhausting.\u201d While he\u2019s back playing it on stream for this one-off event, there\u2019s no telling if it might reignite his passion for Apex.
