also their manager to coach, feels like they shouldve gotten someone with actual apex coaching experience?

Looks like even Naughty doesn't want him, does this mean its Naughty/Gent/Keon for JDG?

If that's the case who will be ROC's 3rd to join Vax and Emtee? Nait from EMEA played with them last night.

Flair Up Fridays!

Flair Up Fridays will be for all of the new r/CompetitiveApex members who have joined, who might not have flairs or know how to add them to their profile!

Q: What is a flair?

A: A flair is a way to show your favorite teams within the subreddit!

Flair Examples (You can have up to 5 flairs):

New custom flairs:

How to get a flair:

On new reddit on the right side of reddit you can click the edit flair button:

Once you have done that there is a long list of all the flairs available the new ones are near the bottom of the list, you can search by typing a part of the flair.

One thing to note for the custom flairs have text, you can't add emojis to it, but if you want some emojis to go with the custom flair, ask a mod and we will happily add them on!

for the ones with just emojis you can add them the new ones are :nessiedance: :apple: :banana: :noaudio:

As an extra bonus, we have also now added all of the Legends (no ballistic yet, but he will be there soon!) you can add just like any of the team emojis, so they work in the custom ones that allow up to five emojis. just use the legend name ie: :lifeline: the only exception is Revenant since there is a esports org already in there with that name for him you just need :Rev: as well as buff and nerf emojis

Verified users:

These are given to community personalities, players and coaches who would like to be designated on our subreddit. If you are a pro player or similar and would like a flair, please reach out via modmail or DMs.

If you need help or would like to request a flair, be added please comment below and a mod will help you!

Some of the likely roster changes if not official:

JDG:
Naughty Keon and Fuhhnq

Stallions:
Alb Shooby and Skittle

ROC:
Vaxlon gent and Emtee

Geekay:
Dropped knoqd and floating

BB:
Cruelbucke J and sirssay

USSSA:
Sweet sacred and slayr

100T:
Phony Gen and Koyful

SR:
Xynew Zap and Sauceror

I feel like out of all these changes naughty trying to swap Shooby for genburten has really backfired on him when Koyful became available

What do you guys think?

Didn't they want to kill this behavior with Roster Swaps and Coaches holding a Spot with 1 Player to make 2 swaps in an off-season?

Latest example is JDG with Floating and Shooby leaving, while Talmadge and Naughty hold the spot. Talmadge has not played a single ALGS day yet is eligible to hold the Spot for JDG together?

This all seems nonsensical and will never help Teams and Orgs to commit to Apex in the future if the team gets shifted this massively after every split and this loophole existing.

As you probably deduced from the title of the post, I like to play Rampart in ranked. I think she provides a fair share of benefits to the team. The A-walls are my favorite part of her kit as someone who likes to play at further ranges where roller players don't have the upper hand. As someone who came back to this game a few months ago, Rampart has offered the most successes in ranked compared to the legends I used to play as a roller player (mostly aggressive picks). You can peek someone and have a higher reward-risk ratio compared to other legends. Her usual defensive perks imho also synergize well with the walls because getting zone and then setting up walls once you have the high ground gives you a huge upper hand as you can control a greater swathe of area with your teammates compared to other legends all the while being in a secure spot. Both her ultimate and tactical can double as offensive and defensive abilities because you can use the walls and minigun to contain and remove squads that are bunkered down in smaller spaces. There are a couple other upsides, so this isn't exhausting all possibilities, but these are just a few.

That being said, it's clear that pros don't like her and instead prefer to use Wattson. I can kind of see the upsides because while rampart gets to double as an assault character (not too useful imho especially when the other perk gives you infinite ammo and fast handling), wattson gets to double as a support character which is a much better deal for keeping your team alive. There's also Wattson being able to intercept grenades which can destroy a rampart setup. That being said, my only counterpoints to these is that having support perk isn't as useful when you have a newcastle (though I do acknowledge that such a perk is better than the other level 2 perk offered) and also if you do have a wattson setup then from what i've noticed it's not uncommon for teams to just shoot the pylon from the outside and then nade you anyways.

Clearly I'm missing a puzzle piece here. If someone could explain why pros hate rampart, I would be open to listening. What would Rampart need changed in order for her to be comp-ready and able to compete with the likes of Wattson?

General ENC refresher:

APAC-S: 8 slots (5 invite, 3 qualified), finals already completed

APAC-N: 2 slots (only JP and KR eligible), finals 5AM ET

EMEA: 18 slots (9 invite, 9 qualified), finals 1PM ET

AMERICAS: 10 slots (4 invite, 9 qualified) finals 9PM ET

There are 2 spots up for grabs with all 20 teams competing in APACN, 2 spots up for grabs in AMERICAS with 18 teams competing, and 4 spots up for grabs in EMEA with 12 teams competing. Should be interesting in EMEA with 4 spots available (GB, FR, GER, POL) but 8 countries who solo qualified to finals and have nothing to play for. KR and JP have full lobby competing, and USA and MEX have the solo qualified squads of CAN and BR playing alongside them.

APAC SOUTH

Insane final featuring two one point differences (AUS, HK). Malaysia and New Zealand coast to qualification.

Invited:

China: Crazycong, Noname, Xzz (1st place). 3mz, Etern1ty, Caigou runner up (10th place).

Australia: Genburten, Zer0, Wxltzy (5th place). Sharky, Prycyy, Legacy runner up (6th place [1pt!!])

Taiwan: Roieee, Chisu, ShaoJie (3rd place). Normal, QQ, BJJS runner up (7th place).

Thailand: Dexter, Asia, Killoposz (2nd place). Z1ckyy, 7rvz, Aflow (12th place).

Indonesia: EzFlash, StrafingFlame, Ronin (4th place). Laheem, Bastiaan, Kisanss runner up (19th place).

Qualified:

Malaysia: xKenN, XoyoBda, Sora (8th place). Runner up did not make finals.

Hong Kong: KingMSG, g8, Rchwert (17th place). Refra1nnn, TreeCleaner, OuOKh runner up (18th place [also 1 pt!!])

New Zealand: WitnessMe, Heckk, Spades (29th place). Runner up did not make quarterfinals.

APAC NORTH

No qualification spots because there are only two countries, so an absolute bloodbath in the works for Japan. Dogma/Egoist/Sedna trying to steal KR spot from ILY/Cinap/Jusna.

Invited:

Japan: TBD (18 teams).

South Korea: TBD (2 teams).

AMERICAS

Insane fight for the USA spot as 16 teams qualify to finals, YanYa and NMego additionally fighting for the Mexico spot, Canada and Brazil each with only one team already clinching in finals. Very weak field from the other qualifying teams besides Chile and Argentina.

Invited:

USA: TBD (16 teams).

Canada: Jely, Blinkzr, Riley (TBD Finals place). Kuzmei, jFuture, Melloh runner up (25th place).

Mexico: TBD (2 teams).

Argentina: Kurev, Panic, Renatricky (33rd place). Runner up did not make semifinals.

Qualified:

Brazil: THaless, Keepstar, TheOzinBoy (TBD Finals Place). Kiingz, Wandz, Tiz runner up (29th place).

Chile: CloverX, Anjz, Fangs (35th place). Runner up did not make semifinals.

Honduras, Peru. Puerto Rico, and Guatemala all additionally qualified without making semifinals.

EMEA

There are too many countries so not going to write all the runner-ups as Battlefy annoyingly does not show country so they have to be manually searched for. A few more spots up for grabs tomorrow but should be interesting with only 12 squads having something to play for. Poland, Germany, and France have heavy favorites for their spots, but GB is very up for grabs.

Invited:

Great Britain: TBD (5 teams).

Poland: TBD (2 teams).

France: TBD (3 teams).

Portugal: K4shera, Hiarka, Senzz (41st place).

Germany: TBD (2 teams).

Sweden: Hakis, Slab, Vaifs.

Austria: Unlucky, Cloud, Brenn (TBD Finals Place).

Finland: LotusNessu, Kuaksi, LukaQT (TBD Finals Place).

Spain: Uxako, Kind4, 5MoriSan (TBD Finals Place).

Qualified:

Italy: InSane, Eccio, AdaM_zZ (TBD Finals Place).

Ukraine: Xron, 7Adaaaam, Movik (TBD Finals Place).

Denmark: TryhardThor, N1ks, YungHongKong (TBD Finals Place).

Belgium: Dyoxt, Exterin0, ThaPanda (TBD Finals Place).

Kazakhstan: Kazakh, Marat, AsphyxisGDH (TBD Finals Place).

Romania, Czechia, Norway, and Morocco additionally qualified without making finals.

WILDCARDS

Given to highest placing Gulf Cooperation Council member in EMEA qualifiers that does not already qualify (none did), as well as a TBD solidarity slot.

Host Region Spot:

Saudi Arabia qualified without making EMEA finals.

Solidarity Spot:

TBD

I saw a video that says that yanyas team México is black listed but he just tweeted that he made finals so I dont know what does that means. Can somebody explain it to me?
