NICKMERCS is certainly no stranger to Apex Legends\u2019 competitive scene and the popular streamer has now revealed which Legend he\u2019d ban.

NICKMERCS wants Horizon removed from Apex Legends \u201cI felt like a little kid playing Jumanji, getting sucked into the board game. I hate getting sucked in by Horizon, I can\u2019t stand it. That\u2019s the worst character in the video game,\u201d explained Nick. Horizon currently has a 6% pick rate in Apex Legends, making her the 6th most popular pick in the game. This popularity is largely down to her deadly ultimate, which creates a micro-black hole that pulls all nearby players towards it.
