It's safe to assume at this point that Loba's biggest character flaw is that she suffers from severe childhood trauma that led her to develop crippling trust issues. Not only does she not trust robots, but her love of animals comes from their lack of ulterior motives. On top of that, she currently isn't in a relationship, which seems like something she struggles with due to said trust issues. It may not make sense but she trusts herself so much that she believes that she can make the right decision in trusting certain peo
In a world that's somewhat grounded, the introduction of an ability that resurrects people is quite head-scratching. Tom Casiello, a writer for the game, was asked to provide a canonical explanation for the ability, but couldn't due to the explanation being tied to a future leg
Loba happens to carry around a staff with her that has the head of a wolf on it. This was a gift she received from her father, which given her name, was likely the animal he most connected with. Her parents seemed wealthy, which was likely a result of their thieving ways. Her mother seemed to be very loving as she referred to her daughter as "cachorrinha" which translates to "puppy" in Portuguese. It seems her family has always been tied to the wild canines that survived in packs but were also known to thrive as lone hunt
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 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
Loba's name was a really smart choice because it serves a dual purpose with both its traditional meaning and what it means in slang. The name traditional means she-wolf which makes sense considering she's an independent woman who is fierce and willing to do what needs to be d
It's great because more games need bisexual representation, but it doesn't define Loba, just like someone's sexual preference isn't their defining personality trait. She has a quip where she says "Man Eater and Lady Killer" which expresses it, which was further confirmed by writer Tom Casiello on Twit
Revenant's base design is so striking and visually interesting that it seems almost impossible at this point for Respawn entertainment layoffs to make a skin for him that isn't cool. The Death Etching skin players receive for purchasing the Season 5 battle pass follows this trend as another skin worth using. It very much echoes the same Egyptian and Middle Eastern fortune vibe that the other two skins its paired with display. Black on gold will never not look amazing, and the subtle red accents throughout make the skin truly outstand
Living in New York City, which was an unfortunate hotspot for the virus, I’m now three months into our city’s stay-at-home order. It finally appears the worst may be over, but our reality will be much different moving forward. Since Friday, March 13, I’ve left my apartment a grand total of six times. Even as my community reopens, we're a long way from the massive open-air concerts and outdoor drinking debauchery that are hallmarks of New York in the summert
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
"You don't really focus on trying to get recognized. You really just focus on your craft and focus on growing your own platform and your own brand," he says. "I always tell people by the time a team is ready to pick you up, you don't necessarily need the team anymo
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
When the COVID-19 crisis suddenly began ravaging communities around the world, national governments could offer little assurance to anxious citizens. We were lucky if we got anything more than contradictory instructions about masks, some vague instructions for handwashing and orders to "stay ho
Wraith is one of the 3 legends who have a skin that is gifted to players once they purchase the battle pass for Season 5. The other two are Revenant and Bloodhound, and out of the 3, she sadly has the least interesting skin. It shouldn't be too much of a bummer as Wraith has plenty of rock-solid skins, and her skin for Season 5 isn't too shabby itself. There doesn't seem to be a lot of rhyme or reason for the way it's colored and that lack of cohesion makes the thing feel messy and less interesting over
