HisWattson explains why Apex Legends pros always call out enemies for cheating Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends pro Jacob \u2018HisWattson\u2019 McMillin has explained why high-ranked players immediately call out their enemies for cheating whenever they\u2019re eliminated from a match. As with any multiplayer FPS, Apex Legends suffers from cheaters who gain an unfair advantage by using third-party software. While these hackers appear in every mode, they\u2019re particularly common in Ranked as climbing the ladder and hitting specific tiers can be extremely challenging. As a result of this, a lot of pros and streamers in Masters and Predator often call out their enemies for cheating as soon as they\u2019re taken down in a fight. This doesn\u2019t always go down well with viewers, who believe they\u2019re jumping to conclusions. Well, HisWattson addressed the issue on stream and explained why so many pros are quick to label their opponents as hackers in Ranked. HisWattson reveals why pros call out so many enemies as hackers During a recent stream, one of HisWattson\u2019s viewers asked him why he always thinks his enemies are cheating in Ranked. In response, he revealed that pros don\u2019t accuse opponents of hacking because \u201cthey\u2019re mad or malding, it\u2019s because there\u2019s an insane amount of cheaters in high-elo\u201d. According to Wattson, there have been \u201ccheaters that have finished as number one Pred\u201d, so high-ranked players always have to be suspicious and have their guard up. Not only that, he reminded his viewers that pros \u201cplay against the best players in the game almost every single day, [so] they know what a real player looks like\u201d. HisWattson did concede that streamers and pros are \u201cnot going to be right every single time\u201d, but he argues in most cases, they\u2019re accurate with their accusations. Either way, this discussion highlights how much of a problem hackers are causing at high ranks and with HisWattson being one of the most vocal pros about the issue, it\u2019ll be interesting to see if Respawn improves their anti-cheat anytime soon. Without a doubt it\u2019s one of the most requested features from the community, so we\u2019ll have to wait whether the devs have any upcoming plans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
