The best squad comps in Apex Legends

Legends has been around for almost two years and since then players have had a lot of time to experiment with different team compositions. Here we present some of the best squads.

Individual skill is still one of the most important factors in , but team composition also plays a big role. Today we’re taking a look at some of the best squad comps. Without further ado, let’s get started!


Bloodhound/Bangalore/Caustic
The main gimmick of this squad is blocking enemy vision and isolating an area. Bangalore and Caustic can use smoke and gas respectively, both of which restrict enemy vision. Also, Bangalore has vision in smoke, Caustic can see in his gas, and Bloodhound can see everyone with his Ultimate anyway. So you see everything, hopefully the opponents see nothing.

Gibraltar/Wattson/Caustic
This squad is probably the most hated. While it might be tough to make it to the Late Game, if you do, it’s Camping City. Each of the Legends has more than enough tools to make a small area nearly impregnable. Combining all three is simply a disaster, and the only way to get through it is probably Crypto. Needless to say, it’s almost never played.

Wraith/Pathfinder/Octane
This team is the exact opposite of the previous one, relying on high mobility and rushing enemies. Wraith can transport the entire team with a portal, Octane provides jump pads to cross obstacles, and Pathfinder’s grappling hook allows him to always reach High Ground.

Lifeline/Gibraltar/Bangalore
You could argue that Lifeline is one of the best legendaries in the game right now. It allows you to safely bring an ally back from almost certain death. Lifeline’s Ulti is quite useful, but draws a lot of attention from enemies. To cover this, you can use Gibraltar’s Shield. Alternatively, you can summon a package and use it as bait, then rain down hell with Gibraltar’s or Bangalore’s Ulti, or both?

Bloodhound/Mirage/Crypto
Another very mobile squad comp that also has a lot of utility, unlike the previous one. Crypto can startle campers with his E.M.P., Mirage can bait enemies, and Bloodhound is there to give you sight and intel. What’s not to like?

Octane/Horizon/Revenant
This squad works well together thanks to great synergy. Combine Octane’s Jump Pads with Horizon’s Gravity Lift to jump much higher. While high up, you can also drop a Black Hole and surprise unsuspecting enemies. Revenant provides the finishing touch with his Silence. Use his Death Totem before you jump off.

What is actually… “Apex Legends?

Within 24 hours, “Apex Legends” became the most-watched game on Twitch – after one week, over 25 million people were already playing it. What is the battle royale shooter about?

What is “Apex Legends” about?

Scenario: In a distant future, bandits, adventurers, and outlaws settle their disputes in a sporting contest to the death. The setting is a fertile, industrially developed valley on the edge of the galaxy.

  • Genre: Battle Royale shooter
  • Game modes: survival battle between a maximum of 20 teams of three.

At its core, “Apex Legends” is a classic battle-royale shooter: up to 60 players land simultaneously in teams of three on the game map called “Kings Canyon” – a densely built-up, fertile valley with many accessible houses, bunkers and towers. Once on the ground, unarmed players must search their surroundings for equipment and ammunition. The goal of the game is to stay alive until the end.

To prevent players from hiding all over the map and waiting to automatically be the last one left, the game area shrinks every few minutes. The longer a round lasts, the smaller the area where survivors can move and hide.

Apex Legends refreshes this now classic game formula with some ideas that are unique to the genre: For example, before starting a round, players select one of eight heroes, each of which has two special abilities and facilitates certain play styles.

Bangalore, for example, is the classic soldier who can conceal her position with smoke grenades and in an artillery strike in an emergency. The heroine Lifeline, on the other hand, can summon a drone to heal teammates – or directly order the delivery of high-value and equipment via aerial drone. This way, all players can find the right hero for their preferred course of action.

How can I play Apex Legends?

Platform: “Apex Legends” is available for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4.

Price: The battle royale shooter is a “Free to Play” title and can basically be played for free on all platforms.

In-game purchases: “Apex Legends” allows the purchase of cosmetic items and new heroes either by means of in-game currency, which can be earned for free in every round, or with real money. The real-money currency “Apex Coins” can be purchased in five different amounts: The smallest possible amount is 1000 Apex Points for around 9.99 euros, while the largest pack with 10,000 Apex Points content costs 99.99 euros.

The developer emphasizes that it is not possible to buy game advantages with the help of real money: You can only use it to customize the appearance of the heroes, it says, or purchase new heroes.

Age rating: “Apex Legends” does not have a youth rating (USK 18).

Which technical terms should you know?

Respawn Beacon: If a player is shot down, the team members who are still alive have the opportunity to bring the fallen comrade back into the game: Each eliminated player leaves behind a so-called Respawn Banner, which can be collected by the players of the own team and handed in at one of 28 Respawn Beacons, certain locations on the map. If this succeeds, the fallen player returns to the game.

Jumpmaster: At the beginning of the game, one of the maximum three players of a team always takes on the role of the jumpmaster. He decides when and where his team enters the game area.

Ping: Using the middle mouse button, players can alert their teammates to interesting locations in the game world or enemies. These pings are a valuable tool for communicating quickly and efficiently within the team.
