Just like many other multiplayer games, Ranked has been the go-to mode of players trying to prove they are the best of the best that Apex Legends has to offer. Though there have been complaints in seasons past that inactive players were hoarding the top spots. Respawn set about changing that in Season 13 as they dropped the Ranked Reloaded update. However, the changes have also come in for criticism, with some players believing it\u2019s now too difficult. Though, there are others that believe the changes are pretty solid too. Plenty of the complaints have come from players who solo queue and link up with random teammates, which NICKMERCS is a bit baffled by, even if he can sympathize with those players just a little bit. During his June 2 stream, the FaZe Clan star was continuing his climb up the competitive ladder when his chat wanted his opinion on the changes to Ranked. Some, again, noted that they run as solo players and find it extremely difficult. \u201cYou have to face people who are great\u2026 better, that\u2019s what Ranked mode is all about,\u201d Nick started. \u201cYou want me to feel bad for you? The only thing I feel bad about is that if you\u2019re playing solo and you don\u2019t have a team, I think it\u2019s really tough right now and they do need to make changes.\u201d The streaming star admitted he was unsure what those changes could be, but urged Respawn to fine-tune things. \u201cIt\u2019s miserable, it\u2019s so hard to play,\u201d he added. \u201cBut, putting that to the side, why are playing solo? I have questions man. The f**k are you doing playing solo man? Why are you playing solo? It\u2019s an honest question.\u201d Nick is not alone in questioning why some players run as a solo in Ranked, but at the end of the day, it\u2019s the only option that some players have. It remains to be seen as to whether or not Respawn will make changes to accommodate and address the complaints, but after such a big overhaul, they may not come quickly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NICKMERCS thinks Apex Legends Ranked is now \u201cmiserable\u201d for solo players NICKMERCS\/RespawnTwitch star Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff believes Apex Legends Ranked is currently \u201cmiserable\u201d for solo players, but also questioned why players are going it alone after the changes.
