Discussion: Apex Legends Cipher adds Legend bans, Akimbo Wingman and Strongholds on November 3

[GAMER2GO Newsroom]

Respawn’s Season 31 update introduces Legend Banning in Diamond+ matches, a dual-Wingman variant, new Strongholds, and major tuning for Crypto, Lifeline, Revenant and more.

Read the full story. What do you think?

Legend bans in Diamond+ are the biggest competitive change here for me. If the voting works well, it could finally force teams to prep more than one comfort comp instead of autopiloting the same must-picks every lobby. The scary part is whether it turns into target-banning annoyance picks instead of actually shaping the meta.

"target-banning annoyance picks" is probably going to happen, at least at first. People always find the easiest way to make a new system feel bad before they learn the real value of it.

I care more about Strongholds than the ban system honestly. Free capture loot plus airdropped cover could make mid-game fights way more interesting, especially if one drops near a team that already has height. It also sounds like a nightmare if your squad is late and gets forced into a bad zone.

[FeralLlama]

The loot package on a Stronghold is exactly why I'm skeptical. Care Package weapon, gold guns, amps, corrupted attachments – that is a huge swing for whoever wins one clean fight, and Apex already snowballs hard enough.
