Who are the best characters in Apex Legends? Top 3 Legends

3. Horizon

Horizon is one of the most effective characters in the Apex Legends, as her kit is extremely powerful for individual and team mobility, making her and her teammates hard to hit.

Further, her Ultimate is extremely powerful for forcing enemy teams out of powerful positions and exposing them to well-placed throwables and friendly abilities such as Gibraltar’s Defensive Bombardment.

2. Pathfinder

Pathfinder has consistently been one of the most popular Legends since the game was released, as he was among the original character list when the game first launched.

The reason this character is one of the best is due to his mobility, which can help the team get into better positions and rotate across the map effectively.

1. Wraith

Taking the top spot for our Apex Legends Season 18 tier list is Wraith, as she continues to dominate in terms of survivability and mobility.

On top of Wraith’s great Tactical ability, which allows her to escape damage for a short period of time and relocate, her Ultimate is an extremely important tool for either the purpose of being aggressive or defensive, making her well-rounded as a Legend and a great team character.

Who is the best character for ranked?

The best characters for ranked include Seer, Valkyrie, Loba, Newcastle, Gibraltar, Bangalore, Caustic, Pathfinder, Horizon, Wattson, Crypto, and Lifeline.

In Ranked Leagues, it’s all about team composition and catering to your play style. Depending on the characters that your teammates are playing, you may want to balance defense, offense, support, and recon.

However, keep in mind that it all depends on how you play and what you can do for your team, as most Legends are viable so long as you play your role.

Who’s better, Bloodhound or Seer?

Currently, many are choosing Seer over Bloodhound due to his efficiency at tracking down enemies, knowing exactly where they are, and being able to track their movements with his Ultimate.

Despite being nerfed slightly in Apex Legends Season 16, Seer is still great at tracking enemies down.

Who is the best solo Legend?

The best solo Legends are those with excellent movement and great survivability, so Horizon, Valkyrie, Octane, Wraith, Pathfinder, and Vantage are all great options.
