The Most Stacked Free Agency in Competitive Apex Legends History
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 січ 2023
- Competitive Apex has reached its midway point of year 3 and with the Split 1 London LAN many are looking towards the teams that have qualified... but what about those that didn't?
Plenty of big-name free agents could jump back into the fray before Split 2 begins and could dramatically shift the landscape of competitive Apex moving forward...

Where do you think some of these players will end up signing?
EDIT: Rocker has retired so he is no longer a free agent. Best of luck to him in whatever comes next!
Love this stuff man keep it coming!! Really clean work on this man 🔥
i think mac joins clg
@@Senjin233 mac with clg is a good fit i agree
Mac needs to redeem himself
One thing worth noting:
Mande trialed and was offered a spot during his time at Alliance. They'd already had Effect lined up to be their new player, but Mande worked so well with them that they offered him the spot. Mande said he didn't take it because he didn't want to take the opportunity away from Effect (him being only 17 and escaping Russia and whatnot).
Class act by Mande.
Didnt know that. Truly an awesome move by Mande
That's why he's the GOAT. *THE GOAT!*
Effect might not be able to get a visa now tho so mande might be subbing for them
Wow mande is pure class
I think Mande will play with them at the Lan
I think this is the first creative ALGS video on youtube other than reaction or clips. It gets people talking and definitely help the community growing. Well done dude
Appreciate it! I love watching and following ALGS and noticed there wasnt much content like this so I figured I'd give it a shot
@@AyeJHawk keep making videos I was looking for this of content for apex, if you keep at it and when Apex eventually peaks in popularity again like it usually does at certain points i think you’ll have a top apex channel
That would be crazy
@@AyeJHawk be the tacticalrab of the apex scene, dude is an absolute beast and deff makes a living covering the cod scene and drama
@@iBobbyFPS maybe I’ll be making a video about you one day 👀 keep grinding bro
Mande hands down imo one of the most underrated pro (I guess ex-pro now?) His snipes are insane and a great support player, MILES ahead of everyone else.
Elite entertainer and a beast of a pro
We def need more comp apex content like this. Soooooo good!
I got more coming!
honestly apex should hire you to make these for the algs channel like the style you edit them in would fit perfectly and would genuinely go so far to make the esport more accessible to everyone, not everyone has the time to check twitter and reddit every hour, so your videos definitely help people to be interested in the scene
Having a job inside apex or even just esports in general would be a dream
Need more videos, enjoyed this one and the optic breakdown. Imma need see that faze breakdown next!!!
Keep up the good work. I personally really like your use of the music during certain points in the video. It really hypes up the moment youre driving home.
Very clear and focused breakdown of the topic, good job. Would enjoy similar videos regarding the reasons why certain top tier teams didn't make it to LAN (Furia, OpTic etc.).
Yeah I'm hoping to make some breakdowns like that before LAN! Then if all goes well cover a bunch of LAN content right after
Loving the content. Such a nice change of pace rather than just channels actually uploading clips
please keep up these videos. really great info and production quality
More to come!
Keep up the amazing content! Highly enjoyed both vids
Great informational vid man. With the edits and transitions n everything.
What a channel! this channel will blow up for sure
great vid! would love the analysis type vids, but these are wonderful too. looking forward to future vids.
I got an optic analysis video already out and Furia coming this weekend!
@@AyeJHawk hell yeah!! will check it out
Lou deep down is a great dude. He has so much understanding, also a great player.
He’s 100% one of my favorite players. Can’t wait to see him dominate again.
Love esports in general and this video is great! hope Apex starts working again in their content, hate to see the community so divided now
Very cool you used the ALGS music in the background of this video!
The plan is to always use ALGS or Apex music in all my videos!
These videos are very well done. Thank you sir
Glad you like them!
Wow! Competitive Apex Journalism is not a subject we see very often on UA-cam and you've done it well. Good job 🙂
I noticed only a few have touched on it in the past and there werent any active people that were really doing essay style content so I figured I'd give it a shot!
Nice video dude, I know I’d love to see Mande back in the comp scene but I have my doubts.
I hope so too
Great video man!! Always looking at ALGS stuff. It be great if you could touch on LG and their rise since i haven't seen anyone else do that, again great work man!!
LG is a team that I think could be a dark horse to win the London LAN. Definitely keeping an eye on them and might make a video soon
Agreed, Yanya is such a beast! Can't wait for the next vid
Great content. Appreciate the work you put into this..
This is good content and well edited, good job bro!
Appreciate it! Took a long time to edit so that means alot!
Just hinted all your videos lol so good dude keep it u😊
Preciate you for real!
I like this content. Keep it up dude, much success coming your way ✨
Appreciate it!
Thoroughly covered my dude. RESPECT! annnndddd SUBBED.
This is one of the most interesting video I ever seen abt the Algs scene
Thanks so much! More to come
Good video, this kind of content is missing from Apex
Love thee fact that mande subbed and played unreal for alliance in split 1 playoffs lol absolute goat.
Mande a legend
100% easily the most intricate andknowledge put into an apex channel and i appreciate it
i like to know what teams are zone teams or what
Zone teams are essentially teams that try to loot way lessss and rotate to try and hold one of the best spots in the map early so they can try and guarantee placement
Updated comment here… re-reading that im now realizing you are asking WHICH team are zone teams. Lol my bad.
The biggest N.A. zone teams are teams like 100T, The Guard, OXG, XSET (kind of, they are really good at swapping to play edge as well), NRG and TSM are both sort of zone teams that will flex to edge depending on circle pull, etc.
Yo dawg super interesting videos keep it up
Great informative and edited video
these videos are so well produced
Only watched ALGS because of Mande, havent watched since he was first on Scarz and won that tourney in 2021 so its weird seeing him in free agency. Gonna get back into it, why not
I love how this video is so dramatic, like it's actual events in real life, but then you realize it's just a video game :)
I’m a sucker for a dramatic video
Though it is a video game, it's still the career of most of these players. Hal is pretty much the only pro who makes far more through streaming even while being one of the best and highest tournament earning players of all time.
Really liked this video amazing idea
I'll be honest, mande, lou and Alb can be great just like xset, tsm, the guard. If they're allow to play along with each other. All 3 are great 1v1 players, good in bubble plays, all 3 can be anchor, can be fragger, mande is great support as well for both alb and lou.
Yeah if it ever happened it would be crazy but so far doesnt look like it. Plus Mande lives in the EU right now so he would have to move to NA if it was to happen
Waiting for mande in action again!
also i like the thumbnail
thanks dude! I hope Mande comes back soon. One of the most enjoyable players to watch
Crazy watching this now in 2024 and seeing how much rosters have shifted since then. Players like Naughty, Chaotic, ZachMazer, Dezign all finding success while others like Alb and Lou still bouncing around
to be fair Lou is on Complexity who just had a great split and is heading to LAN
@@AyeJHawk True true I forgot they picked him up, him and Monsoon been poppin off recently
I remember I started watching Mande right after Scarz won algs. Almost 2 years later and I'm still subbed to him on twitch. Best streamer I've ever watched and arguably one of the best players in the world when it comes to raw mechanics.
100% one of the best players in the world. I wish he was on a permanent team competing!
@@AyeJHawk He's been doing amazing as a stand-in for Alliance. But yeah I agree he needs to come back to pro play full time
Brooo I love videos like this I wanna get these videos pushed soooo bad
Lou was playing for br demons in oversight
Great vid! Ez sub
Lou is such a goat man I love that watching that dude have fun
elite vibes
Respect, smoll channel but perfect edit video
such good content!
Maybe video about what happened with NA'VI?
I have to say, I feel truly sorry for all the S-Tier M&K fraggers (like Mande, Lou and Alb) because, unless the meta shifts heavily, they either have to be a solid IGL, or teams just don't want them, because they can simply sign some 17 years old roller demon for less and with equal or better results. As a controller player myself, I don't think this is fair, if you have a competitive scene, you can't just jeopardize the livelihood of 50% of your competitors, the ones getting views on your tournaments and game, based on their input, it is a gross and obscene showing of greed over integrity.
roller aim assist NEEDS to get turned down. it's getting too much.
It doesn't matter the views the garner if roller players get nerfed into the ground as that's the majority of players. It's a tuff spot be in
Lou and Alb may find it hard but Mande definitely won't.
He's been the most consistent and dominant member of Scarz since forever.
Taisheen may have outperformed him a few times but Mande has always been consistent.
And his skill has only gotten better.
So I'm sure that if he WANTS, he can join any Team in the World that is looking for a player no matter how many Controller players he has to compete with.
@@tfulookinforbro People that blame aim assist for losing fights are generally trash
@@bacardim390 my gamer tag is Swaroop629 on xbox. AA is completely busted and I know from experience.
nice video i love it keep it up :D
Great stuff
Dude i love your videos and its like the head news/ politics of the game
Thanks!
THIS CHANNEL NEEDA BLOW UP
Bro your videos are fire
Thanks so much
Ooooooh this is good fr apex. Ur the first 🗣️🙏
Mande, Lou, and Chaotic would be filthy.
honestly zachmazer and snipedown on the same team would be hilarious. mazer moments combined with snipedown going braindead from time to time lol
Would be comedy for sure 🤣
Can we throw Rpr on that Team just to really set it off? 😂
Really great video first off. I think Faze will go for Mazer but Snipe has to figure out how to stop overriding his IGL. It didn’t work on TSM and if it’s him and Mazer it could get interesting 😅
Rumor is they will pick up Phony and Lewda from ESA. No clue if that’s true or not but that’s been the rumor recently
and with also saying this lou naughty and Osivien placing very well in other tournaments so they could become the next big team
That team would be so fun to watch
It’s so funny how the FTX thing just destroyed SO many orgs. They all vaguely cited the economy but we all know how much crypto the average org was holding, lol. Sad that apex seems to have born a lot of the financial burden.
Yeah Esports orgs getting in bed with the crypto companies has really hurt esports as a whole. And that unfortunately is why we got teams pulling out of Apex right now... :(
Lou and Sens were absolutely demonic at their peak. I remember when Sens punched out Hal, good times
Prime sentinels was the most entertaining team to watch. Really wish they were still running through the lobbies 😭
Prime Sent was like Prime Furia, taking a clean 3v3 vs them was a death sentence
Was My Favorite Team!!
Great video
I'm gonna need some of these guys to take a shower
Nice report , thank you
I smiled hard when Zach said he was the best igl on the market, but honesty he’s been grinding and maybe there’s a truth to that
Aaaaaanndd Mande got assigned to TSM as a content creator.
Lets hope he’ll get the chance to play comp though
yeah I dont think this affects him for ALGS. Alb is still signed to TSM as a content creator but has been on like 4 different teams
Zach, Mac , and Lou would be cool to see or naughty for Lou since Zach would wanna be igl
I also don't understand hardecki situation, he's insanely talented but seems like he doesn't want to leave his teammates and that's risky, idk
also rumours that monsoon is too now, incredibly underrated, lou and Mon both free agents at the same time the return of flyquest?
Zach Mazer used to play with Mon and Lou and is a free agent as well!!
I’m very exited to see mande play with TSM
He is just a content creator for them so he won’t be playing on their comp roster
Ur vids are amazing.
Glad you like them!
I was literally thinking imagine alb Mande and Lou teamed up
Mechanically that team would be NUTS. No controller player though which is sadly a must right now
@@AyeJHawk no igl either, would be messy but definitely a menace on fights
@@Ottoni174 Alb would inevitably force his way as the IGL. He can’t help but talk about all the macro mid game at this point 😅
@@Ottoni174 Lou has Igl experience not much but he could learn and alb is a good fighting Igl imo
@@name-ln4zl funny enough, this would be a trio where all the players were champs for different teams, and yeah, Lou was the igl but with the meta shift he didn't found as much success, i would pay to see this team happen but i think this is just a colective dream lol
All ima say is Resultah needs to be put on a solid ass team for him to show his true potential, bro is such a good support player no fakin
Super underrated
Yeah these vids are good quality apex content
you should do a DZ on how they went from top 1 team to barely qualifying or a C9 video on why they failed
I briefly touched on C9 in my first video about the current Free Agent class!
mande, lou, alb would be insane
Mande with alliance made it pretty high up on the leader board in the algs split 1 playoffs as a free agent. (As a sub tho)
5th overall in the world! Dude is incredible and so are the Alliance guys
Super good video.
I’ve been playing in PLQ and got to semifinals, and I’ve never seen more people who are pro league ready and so incredibly skilled.. if algs teams ever need new people that’s where to look…
So much talent in the scene. Hope EA keeps growing ALGS so we can see it all over the years
what is PLQ?
@@FPS_Xanamide pro league qualifier
@@AyeJHawk thank you
@@FPS_Xanamide Pro league qualifiers. its for up and coming teams to qualify for ALGS
although i may be biased because im from dk, imo mande has to be the most talented player in the apex scene rn
Well as someone from NA, I agree with you. Can’t wait to see him back in action hopefully soon
Good call to end it before it ended the friendship good for him.
Definitely a smart call
Of all the esports pro scenes I think apex has the most non toxic scene. Apex pros never made it personal.
Facts, and they all play with each other in between tourneys
I love how americans are so aggresive but at the same time so delicate.
The ammount of time americans apologize and also say “dont give hte to them” is just halarious
They kind of have to say that cause fans on the internet decide hating on people is the best route forward when people part ways
Fall of c9 vid would be lit. Shows dropping knoqd was one of the worst roster changes in apex history and how the team didn't preform As well at all.
Yeah sometimes an “upgrade” isn’t actually better at all
All 3 previous Gibby players.
I want to see lou albralelie and mande on a team or instead of albralelie staynaughty
As a retired cod pro, I don’t understand.
We played pro league, and finished with a dominant 27-16 finish.
Including two championship wins pick a team stick with it and when it’s time to retire do it together and go out with a bang.
Can you make a SECOND part to this video with foreigners too? 😇
I’m not familiar enough with the other regions tbh or I would
its crazy cuz mande just joins tsm
He joined as a content creator so that won’t affect his ability to compete in ALGS with other teams (like Albralelie does)
Nice content
THIS IS AWESOME
Hyped for TSM_Mande
The TSM vibes would be off the charts
i think OpTic will drop Dooplex because of his poor performance in PL, if they pick Lou or Mac that would be scary
Imagine a team of Alb, lou and chaotic. That team would probably be the most mechanically gifted team of all time.
Yeah that would be crazy
Chaotic is not mechanically good Mande is much better
alb chaotic and mande, or Alb chaotic or zach
@@foxboi4132 Well the old sentinels roster has shown us that a team needs a controller player if they want to win a 3v3 off drop. They got shit on by tripods for christ sake and they were considered the most mechanically gifted mnk squad.
@@oyunboldboldbaatar5519 no way you call them the most mechanically gifted mnk players when none of them are russians.
Rocker is not a Free Agent, brother.
He put out a Twitlonger on Jan 11 titled "Quitting".
This is a part from the Twitlonger :
"
From grinding as a complete random at the start of the game with nafen, to playing on a stage in front of thousands of people, it's been surreal and I have no regrets. I'll still be around here and there in streams and stuff, but yeah no more apex for me.
Thank you to everyone that has supported me through the years, it means the world
this video came out on January 8th hence why he was included at the time
@@AyeJHawk Damn, I didn't even notice the date since I felt like I read that Twitlonger so long ago. 🤣
Well, this comment might help any future viewers.
yeah no worries. I though about attempting to cut that bit out in the youtube editor but didnt manage to make it work. Unfortunate timing
@@AyeJHawk Yeah, that feels like too much work to edit this one thing out.
What you can do, is edit the Pinned Comment and add this info there, so any new viewers that come will know about it.
good idea
true title
Im thinking that Mande is waiting for the right team, particularly an NA team. Every team could benefit from picking him up
I have always wondered if Mande would consider moving to NA. Depending on the org/team I think he might
@@AyeJHawk yeah, i know hes said he wants to stay home w his dad, but wouldnt be suprised to see the whole fam make a move
Lou, Alb, and Mande on a team could potentially be nasty as hell
need a controller
they need at least 1 controller player tbh
3:13 how is this music called?
Its called "Champions" by Jez Pike, Bob Mitchell & Jimmy Kaleth

i hope all the C9 bois find a place, i hate that they targeted Furia last year so hard but i still love them as a team/players. Mazer i also believe to be one of the best if not the best IGL in the game as long as he doesnt have a derp (mazer) moment.
