Maggie's Fireball is going to be INSANE. Throw it into a room full of enemies, now they're burning AND stunned?! Finally Maggie's ult will be good for something. And the thermite doesn't just damage enemies, it damages their equipment too. A building locked down by Caustic and Watson? Chuck the ball in there, and destroy all their traps.
@@Kfettiiino they won't but the original comment mentions watson specifically so in the situation they describe of caustic and Watson holding down a building the ball will be destroyed by wattson ult
I’ll be honest, I feel a lot better about this update after hearing you explain how it all works. The shield thing had me very worried but it actually makes sense and most of the ability upgrades aren’t too crazy
Some are crazy tho... Maggie literally exterminate a small room with her ult and caustic covers a whole end circle with his ult. Also if u checked ramparts perk with the faster reloading behind amped walls. You can basically non-stop shooting
I’m really excited for this update since it shakes up strategies from previous metas. It makes you think more strategically on how to approach enemies as they could have upgrades based on their armors. It also encourages getting into fights and being a team player with using your passive.
I don't think this is going to do anything to the game, players left for other games and Apex was like "oh no better change everything to get the players back!" now people who planned on returning like me will decide nevermind
@@pinktr_eeyou’re an outlier buddy. i’m and old player myself and haven’t plaid in a year. these changes are definitely gonna make ppl return. you just want the same game😭 but somehow want it to get better
Honestly this update is probably what makes me come back to the game after a year hiatus. I played it on and off before and not really playing seriously but the more games I played the more I just got stomped more and more by sweaty players and kinda just gave up, but this update with all the changes add a nice bit of flavor into the combat and overall gameplay flow which I really like.
At just personally don’t handle change well, I hate learning new things when I’m so comfortable with how things were. But after Kandy explained all of it I am more excited than I was before lol. I just feel like there’s gonna be wayyy too many things for my brain to worry about and think about.
I like the shield update. Simplifies things while keeping much of what was good about it like rewarding armor swapping. I’m a little unsure about the crafter changes, but everything else in this season looks absolutely awesome.
Thanks Kandy for making some of the best apex content I hope you and boom continue to bring us amazing videos. When I feel alone and depressed your videos cheer me up you're bubbly personalities are awesome
I agree 100%. I run the Eva with Maggie so getting a knock and the instant reload is MAGICAL. Gonna be dangerous. That increased drill size is sweet as well. Honestly the whole setup for her is gonna be dangerous. Finally some love for Maggie mains.
Haven't played since the girl with the bat launched, and I'm looking forward to playing Apex again with this update as revenent the most. His playstyle suits me the most, and I absolutely love the idea of jumping around and killing everyone all the time and never slowing down. Sounds like heaven honestly
I like the new shield update. You can swap and not worry about someone coming up on your armor and it possibly being grabbed by an enemy while swapping in a fight. The seeing grenades is trash lol
I think Pathfinder should be able to pop cells or batteries on a zipline. Damage reduction is cool, but, I think that wouldn’t make Pathfinder better. He'd be the only one using the “popping shields on a zip” perk and should be exclusive to Pathfinder. I mean, since Pathfinder literally uses ziplines the most and is a robot.
I think the DR buff is actually aimed at competitive play. It sounds like he temporarily charges the ziplines on initial placement, giving both him AND teammates DR for safer rotation
So as a crypto main that 50% extra EMP range is both good and bad, extra range obviously but that means you have to drive the drone further if you want to emp right in front of you and not be hit. But calling out squads in the area isn’t useful since you already do that with the banners. Will be interesting to experiment with
haven’t plaid apex in like a year and this is really interesting. i think it makes players have to actually think rather than just spamming shield swaps
8:33 if you can drop your core to your teammates, maybe a decent idea sometimes to give it to teammates that are a lower level. Like before a fight you know of, but have time, drop your red to your teammates with say blue, and then use a battery on yourself before pushing the fight. Depending on how long the timer is before the bonus armor disappears, could be good. Also means batteries are a good bit stronger and more valuable (assuming that I'm right abt how it works dropping shields for teammates)
@@derkschot4865 a lot of people were just talking about how anything changing was bad without giving good reasons. But new players having difficulty understanding it is a good reason for why the change might be not that great.
I like the amount of changes they made but idk about the perk thing for when you level up your shield, I feel like that adds a lot more unnecessary things you have to account for in fights now
Mirage is lowkey going to be a problem! He can essentially have unlimited clones with fast ult charge AND the bamboozle bonus! Good thing i play him, Lol.
one thing i was wondering with watsons ult, if your teamate throws a hability and it gets eaten by the pylon, will it spawn a arc star? a fuse could cheese this out by throwing Qs at the pylon and spawning endless arc stars
Catalysts perks arent really upgrades, the ult meant to be 73 meters with the upgrade instead of 55, now just 40 instead of 55m and 55m are in the perks.
it would suck to use a crafter and then need to craft banners and not be able to, because you're in end game and happened to use a crafter in that zone already
@@glenthebutcher4184nah i think u cant craft again only on the crafter that you used, if another crafter spawns in i think you could craft another two items again
What does "extend nox vision" even meaning? does it work after enemies leave the gas? because if enemies need to be in the gas for it to work nothing changes.
Love how people are praising how this reduces ratting and generally rewards aggression (like the game actually needed any more incentive) while ignoring the reality of most pubs matches that will just mean pub stompers can now stomp even more as they get the most upgraded legends possible. Not enough to have a trio of triple red armour tea coming at you, they now have reduced cooldowns and all what have you. :-/
Don’t get how people are saying they don’t like the shield changes it’s literally nothing but up side. Especially since now when you swap in a hectic battle you don’t lose your hard earned shield whereas before if u gotta swap your purp out of a white in the middle of a fight then relocate there goes your purple shield.
Possibly, but i just see it as choosing your perks based on the how the game is going. Maybe one perk would be more useful in that game but not in another. Idk, guess we just gotta see
If this is true about the shield update I’m out. Apex legends needs to upgrade their servers for stopping cheating. It’s getting old we all don’t get to play lan games with campers…
Im wondering how vantage's passive would work with this shield change. Would it tell you the enemy has red shields even though they really have blue or would it be red and you just assume it's not temporary?
Not caytalyst upgrades just being what she lost in nerfs lol, im not complaining tho, the apex community is known for never being happy, but I’m gonna give it a good shot

wattson's ult kills the ball though
@@havenloss8107ok… everyone in the lobby isn’t running Watson right?
@@Kfettiiino they won't but the original comment mentions watson specifically so in the situation they describe of caustic and Watson holding down a building the ball will be destroyed by wattson ult
Imagine with caustic gas range tho... fucking hell
The ball has always destroyed traps doors etc… 🙄😭😭😂
In a sense, respawn took notes from Apex Legends: Mobile, like the Legend ability perks and integrated it into the main game
Monarch titan had these types of perks in TitanFall 2.

thanks for watching! I'm glad my video can provide some comfort
As a Maggie main, I can’t wait! I feel that unfortunately her shotgun upgrade for reloading might be more beneficial and come into play more often…
I agree 100%. I run the Eva with Maggie so getting a knock and the instant reload is MAGICAL. Gonna be dangerous. That increased drill size is sweet as well. Honestly the whole setup for her is gonna be dangerous. Finally some love for Maggie mains.

I hope that eventually, after every season, they pick a few legends and give them 2 new perks that you can randomly get every level up
Love this!! Seeing your excitement and joy when hearing new music is amazing!! ❤
It's nice seeing my mains (Pathy/Mirage) get some love 😊
As a wraith main. I always say if I could have got my phase off half a second faster I would’ve got out. So I’m very happy with these buffs
Path is gonna be a good legend to pick honestly…
Thanks for the showcase!!! I’m so hyped for the new season and keep up the good work!!!🔥🔥🔥

I love the intro of deleting a bunch of random friend requests 😂😂😂
mirage is going to be everywhere what the ahahaha
Bro ive been a mirage main since season 1, im too excited
if the care package insight gave those xp bonuses like it does for the regular class then it could be pretty useful for getting put to purple evo.

"My wall was definitely longer than her wall" Oh Kandy :)
with ash its meh because it looks like you can still break the tether. it'd be cool if instead it slowly pulled them in or something
I feel like this might make Apex really complicated for beginners, because it already has a LOT of mechanics.
Finally a good take instead of “noo new things the horror of something i am used to changing”
@@eleonarcrimson858 So in your opinion the change is good? (sorry, i didn't really understand your comment. This isn't meant in a mean way
@@derkschot4865 a lot of people were just talking about how anything changing was bad without giving good reasons. But new players having difficulty understanding it is a good reason for why the change might be not that great.
I don't care. Long time players were always thrown under the rug, new players can take the hit this time
'I do not care who makes the kill. As long as I can observe it die.' as I trap people in rooms with me and heal myself in my gas.
As a previous LL main she will be dope to play with her new kit. Self revive and 20% revive speed is going to make her annoying in the right hands
Dude, I’m so excited for this next season
7:13 bruh for a moment i thought that catalyst could summon 2 walls at one go. That would be insane, she would become moses
This whole shield thing just makes the skill ceiling higher and is gonna make my friends not want to play even more than before. Kinda sucks ngl
The armor makes sense if you think about how batteries work
Already miss the old armour swapping lol. But keen to try these new abilities, it’s just nice to have something new for a change
I like the amount of changes they made but idk about the perk thing for when you level up your shield, I feel like that adds a lot more unnecessary things you have to account for in fights now
Mirage is lowkey going to be a problem! He can essentially have unlimited clones with fast ult charge AND the bamboozle bonus! Good thing i play him, Lol.
Mirage main since season 1 bro, Im high masters, will prob dominate and go predator this season
devs: nerf tap strafing
Octane: Hold my nade
I wonder if Smoke Healing can stack? Pop both smokes and heal quick?
It does
Same with caustic. It’s better with him in regards of him having like 5 or 6 gas cannisters and a gas grenade. Free med kit or syringe if needed
one thing i was wondering with watsons ult, if your teamate throws a hability and it gets eaten by the pylon, will it spawn a arc star? a fuse could cheese this out by throwing Qs at the pylon and spawning endless arc stars
I’m assuming they’ll make it be like only enemy stuff. But not sure, as a fuse main that would be goated
Fuse andWatson would be a really good combo.
Catalysts perks arent really upgrades, the ult meant to be 73 meters with the upgrade instead of 55, now just 40 instead of 55m and 55m are in the perks.
Straight shot just basically a mini Royale from PUBG. I'm a huge fan of bite-size Battle Royale.
I think it’s funny that a lot of the upgrades are just pre nerf forms of the legends but you can only get one
The one time carfting seems to be their solution for people camping outoff the ring in ranked
the switching between past end present is pretty confusing without transition
New season looks amazing we’ll done apex
it would suck to use a crafter and then need to craft banners and not be able to, because you're in end game and happened to use a crafter in that zone already
Yeh i dont get this one
U may get a battery then later in game u need banners and then it just impossible??
@@glenthebutcher4184 You can use every crafter on the map once
@@glenthebutcher4184nah i think u cant craft again only on the crafter that you used, if another crafter spawns in i think you could craft another two items again
True. Maybe they could put it on a timer, or have them refresh after a few zones.
Imagine traping 2 people from different teams with Ash's snare xD
I don’t know if it’s just me but the levelling up reminds me of Fortnite with the power ups they did last chapter
You can definately tell they were really careful to not give the legends that are strong right now to much buff or to good of upgrades.
So straight shot ltm is the apex version of resurgence .🔥💪
these new game modes are going to make regular pubs so much healthier. at least in theory
My boy mirage gonna be great
Bro, that wattson arc star perk is op, play with a fuze Q, and u get unlimited arc stars.
What does "extend nox vision" even meaning? does it work after enemies leave the gas? because if enemies need to be in the gas for it to work nothing changes.
Season 20 wtf! I remembre playing season 2 like it was yesterday... the game changed so much i don't even think i could ever get back into it
4:40 I though the wingman wasn’t in the care package…
Devs had one job just make ash ult longer and actually land on the right place
I have a feeling that they will nerf the revive points. Teams will camp in ring to allow to heal
wish he showed the wraith Q time reduction
Im down for no more armer on the ground part of it but im not sure about the upgrade system we will have to see
imagine a rampart behind wall while his ballistic teammate has its ult activated
It would be cool if you could pick between gold or red armor
Gold is removed but maybe they do that in future🤔
"Death crap hole" is what I heard 😂 @11:19
This update finally gives me a reasom to pick it up again

Cryptos emp range is insane wtf
This season looks like it could actually be pretty good
super hyped for it
Hyped is understatement for me man, this looks amazing.
Lol, loba with a gold bag grabbing 9 shield batteries and turning them into shield cores for swaps.
I just one question: Wouldn't be good to have the perks selection in the lobby?
Possibly, but i just see it as choosing your perks based on the how the game is going. Maybe one perk would be more useful in that game but not in another. Idk, guess we just gotta see
As in have it so you can choose which perks you want the game to automatically select for you? Yeah that might be nice actually
Ballistics ultimate needed a buff in the perks
So the upgrades stack, or when you go to next lvl you change to that lvl upgrade?
If this is true about the shield update I’m out. Apex legends needs to upgrade their servers for stopping cheating. It’s getting old we all don’t get to play lan games with campers…
*KANDY CONTENT OH DELICIOUS*
🔥🥵😮💨🤙🏻🤤😵💫🥸
mirage is gonna have some funny clips just keep throwing boozles
You're probably the first person I've seen show what happens if you pick up a lower tier armor core when you have say, red armor
So I want to know is gold knockdown gone?
Imagine valk did 5 x 5 ....woulda made viper proud
I've gotten what I've wanted SOOOOO LONG for mirage I can't believe it BAMBOOZLE BOY MAINS ITS OUR TIME
Im wondering how vantage's passive would work with this shield change. Would it tell you the enemy has red shields even though they really have blue or would it be red and you just assume it's not temporary?
I honestly dont even care about the perks im just happy with the shield changes thats the whole reason ill be playing this season
Before I died I used to drop my shield so enemies can’t shield swap haha
As a Crypto main. I can get down with that
League of Apex Legends! lol some cool changes though
the shield upgrade is coming in pubs or ranked?
I feel like the update for shields were unnecessary
If you have red armor and pick up 2 whites, does it give you 100 shield? Or maybe pick up a blue and a white and be full red?
They don’t stack
Not caytalyst upgrades just being what she lost in nerfs lol, im not complaining tho, the apex community is known for never being happy, but I’m gonna give it a good shot
Mad Maggie whith bigger drills and the ball update will be good combo
This determines whether or not I reinstall
You got to play early W mans ❤
Only true OG players will know rhat you used to be able to place 3 wattson pylons all at once normally.
Shield update looks fun
