And that tweet with all-new sauce by Respawn: “Lining them up just to knock them down😌”. Geeeez, the mood. Anyone who’s been grinding for Apex Legends Arenas KNOWS the vibe. That dopamine-high feeling you get from wiping an entire squad alone or planting that Kraber shot winning the round for your team. But the other kind of pain- the “I’m hurting from being full-butt-pound cblood-bathed; left to die because my randoms were busy looting death boxes” sort of pain.
Kickoff of the Arenas was around Season 9, and it would have been complete Chaos League since then. No more random loot; barely any third-partying; just your pure gun skills and brain plays. You either love it to the fullest or are still upset, thinking about that one least match where your teammate bought a Mozambique three rounds running; don’t remind me.
That tweet shared a smug feeling: “Yeah, Respawn knows they cooked something with this mode.” And the clip- oh, brother! That is probably an inhuman 1v3 with the Wingman for the sake of… well, it is. But here is the real question- ARE YOU THE CLUTCH IN ARENAS, OR ARE YOU THE ONE GETTING LINED UP AND KNOCKED DOWN? Be honest.
Certain players are built differently- they thrive on the structured chaos that is Arenas. Those-other-ones… Let’s just say, they miss the comforts of climbing up in a tree in World Edge till there are just two squads left. And that’s okay! Sort of. Maybe.
Those who are still finding their feet: do not buy the Longbow every round. Please. For the love of all things holy, just grab an R-301 and stick close to your squad. Or don’t. It’s your Lone Player, not mine.
Those were all teasing tweets by Respawn, and you KNOW that they’re paying real close attention to the stats, right? So maybe ranked mode for Arenas is actually happening? Or new maps? Or-hear me out-a way to mute those teammates who never shut up about their 4K badge while going 0-7 in rounds. A legend can dream.
Bottom line: Arenas is here to stay, and whatever you’re up to, being the fryer or the fried, there’s really no better time than now. Just make sure to premade one, maybe, if you like getting hurt. And if you haven’t been introduced yet… well, what are you waiting for-a written invitation? Go. Report back when you have either popped off or uninstalled. No judgment.
(Okay, slight judgment.)
