Like many of its other FPS rivals, Apex Legends has been caught in the middle of the never-ending debate between controller and mouse and keyboard, with each side complaining about the other. Some MnK users have suggested that controller is akin to a \u201csoft aimbot\u201d in the battle royale, as it has become the dominant peripheral in competitive play. TSM\u2019s ImperialHal recently claimed MVP honors at the ALGS Season 1 playoffs after his switch to \u2018roller, becoming the first player to win an event with both inputs. Even with the rise of controller, the two inputs are still being pitted against each other in pro play, which is a surprise for someone like shroud, has constantly chimed in on the aim assist debate across numerous titles. Shroud believes Apex legends should split up controller &#038; KBM in separate events The former Counter-Strike star made his return to Apex during a recent stream and quickly discussed the age-old topic of aim assist after stating that he wishes the battle royale had a little more \u201cfinesse\u201d at long-range. \u201cIt\u2019s all in the close. In the close range, it\u2019s sick, when you\u2019re bobbing and weaving and shield swapping,\u201d he said. From there, his pals noted that the controller pros have been \u201cowning\u201d in the mid-range fights. \u201cThat\u2019s f*cked. I can\u2019t believe they still have competitions in the same\u2026 with rollies and mouse and keyboard together. I still can\u2019t believe that. How many more years is it going to take to segregate those two?\u201d he asked. Timestamp of 0:24 The Twitch star added that he thinks it\u2019s \u201ctotally fine\u201d to split the two up and have separate tournaments for each input. That\u2019s something that would likely become difficult to accommodate on Respawn\u2019s side of things when it comes to balancing the battle royale, but maybe they\u2019ll throw in a few more aim assist nerfs?
