Mirage has quickly ascended to be the poster child of the game in many ways, thanks in large part to his over the top personality. It should come as no surprise that he received a brand new skin in Season 5 that's pretty stel
The theme of Season 5 seems to be centered on exploration, discovery, and riches. Loba's Huntswoman skin has the skilled assassin looking like a Victorian bounty hunter. The forest green and cream outfit is accented by the dark brown leather of her accessories and brings the entire look toget
Her scarlet red hair and matching eyeshadow do a great job of contrasting her outfit and making her face become the focal point of the entire thing. You better hope that you're not her target because you don't stand a cha
It's meant to resemble the bloodstains on her eyes when she witnessed her parents being murdered at the hands of Revenant. It's a reminder of her past, while at the same time giving her a spark of flair that makes her stand out even m
This skin does the impossible and makes her look regal and elegant, while at the same time not taking away how composed and capable she is. Bangalore is a boss, and it's only fitting she has a skin that exudes that same ene
The Cage is more of a large tower and it is highly populated as well with everyone landing on the topmost part of the tower for the most part. If this is the destination of choice either landing on the top of the tower, expecting a fight, or landing on the outside of it, where there's tons of loot in the small bunkers, avoiding contact, can be a preferred play here. It's one of the rare locations that going into combat is a choice rather than a necessity but in the endgame, being on the top of the tower is where everyone would love to
Most teams still feel the need to have one member use Lifeline, but that may change as more and more people get used to Loba. There comes a point when healing isn't good enough and teams will need additional abilities Lifeline doesn't have to turn the fight in their fa
Some may scoff at this entry as both the skin and weapon seem to not be befitting of this list at first glance. The Hemlok has come into favor in the Season 5 meta, so it belongs on this list in some capacity. As for the skin, it's a tougher sell. Is it easy on the eyes and heavily desired? No, not really. It does however feature an organic looking design that makes it look unique and also plays into the lore of the franchise as a whole. With all of that considered it seems that the #7 spot made all too much se
The master of the hunt, Bloodhound, has been seeing a slow and steady set of buffs that have slowly made the hunter better and better with every passing season. Battle royale games place a heavy emphasis on information gathering and Bloodhound is one of the few legends who makes that part of the game an active part of their abilit
Not only did Season 5 bring with it a host of new changes, but it also introduced the new legend named Loba. She has a long history with Revenant, as she was the daughter of the man who Revenant killed in his introduction to the g
In Season 5 the Wingman still isn't a top tier weapon in the game, but it is nice that it saw some love via skins. Every season the game tends to end the battle pass with a pair of skins for a specific weapon. The most notable was when the R-301 Carbine received a pair of rhinoceros inspired skins, with one being gold and the other silver. The Wingman received the same treatment and its Precision Caliber skin happens to have a flashier golden design, whereas its counterpart which we'll get into later is a lot more sub
Players are first introduced to Loba when she is barely 9 years old. At the time her name was unknown, as she was an innocent victim during Revenant's introduction video in which he murders her parents. Now that she's entered the fray of the Apex Legends Control Legend Games, she is no longer a little girl, but now a woman at the age of 34. It's been 25 years since Revenant changed her life forever, and since then she's lived a life of crime where she established herself as one of the greatest living thieves in existe
For the longest time, the Hemlok was seen as a burst assault rifle that should only be used as a last resort. In Season 5, however, it has quickly ascended in the meta to be a clear and decisive top ten choice. The Retrofitted skin makes the gun feel even more high-class and pairs nicely with the numerous new legend skins the season introduced. Whenever you pair a maroon color with gold and black accents you're already playing with house money in regards to creating a design people will want to acquire and eq
Lifeline is still far and away the best support character in the game as her healing is invaluable. The problem is that Loba was introduced and her Ultimate Ability makes Lifeline look trivial by compari
The Triple Take is an interesting sniper rifle that seems useless until it's used by someone very skilled. Scarab's Bite is the Season 5 skin for the Triple Take and it feels like an homage to Widowmaker of Overwatch . Purple and black are the primary colors of the design, which happens to have speckles of red sprinkled throughout. You may not be using this gun much in Season 5 as it isn't a top tier weapon, but it may be neat to roleplay as Widowmaker in the odd chance it's the only gun you h
