Given that Apex Legends has different characters with unique abilities, there are plenty of playstyles that can have success in Respawn\u2019s popular battle royale. Many players like to drop hot and look to be aggressive, racking up kills, while others play on the edge of the zone, taking things slow. However, there are also players who use legends like Lifeline so that they can sit in the zone and avoid fighting others until the very last moment. These players are known are zone healers and they, quite often, spark backlash within the Apex community. It\u2019s happened again between longtime rivals ImperialHal and HisWattson as the pair disagree on punishing zone healers. ImperialHal &#038; HisWattson disagree on zone healers being banned It kicked off after it was pointed out that one of the top players currently in Ranked actively avoids taking fights, opting to stick in the zone and rack up placement points. HisWattson\u2019s point was that it\u2019s an annoying yet effective strategy, but there shouldn\u2019t be punishment. \u201cI see people saying that zone healers should be banned. You should never ban someone for their playstyle. Although it is giga-cringe and ruins the game for everyone else, you can\u2019t blame somebody for using a strategy if it works,\u201d the FURIA star said. Hal quickly disagreed with that, however. \u201cMan said it ruins the game for everyone else but they shouldn\u2019t get banned for it,\u201d he replied, attaching a laughing emoji at the end of his tweet. Some players quickly took Hal\u2019s side on the disagreement, but others also urged Respawn to fix things so that the strategy isn\u2019t viable. \u201cThey aren\u2019t using an exploit that takes specifics inputs to break the game. They are just using in game mechanics. They are really lame but this ones on the devs. Why should someone not breaking rules get banned?\u201d said one. \u201cRuining others game shouldn\u2019t be bannable, instead FIXING the issue should happen so one it can\u2019t be done and two other\u2019s games aren\u2019t ruined. Come on CEO,\u201d added another. Given that the strategy has been around for a while, it\u2019s unlikely to go away anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ImperialHal &#038; HisWattson clash over controversial Apex Legends healing strat FURIA\/Joe Brady (@JOEBRADYPHOTO)Apex Legend stars ImperialHal and HisWattson clashed over zone healing, as they apparently agree it \u201cruins\u201d things but they disagree on whether or not players should be banned for it.
