Yeah I learned this when trying the akimbos in the firing range on day one with ballistic 😭 it seems balanced but ppl just think you need movement abilities to succeed
@@rubrtt Movement is always top-tier, reason why Flash is inconsistent with his power level because speed is OP. But yeah, even though Ballistic has no movement I still think he's pretty damn good.
I started playing ballistic this season because of you. I feel like he is actually pretty good for people like me, who tend to choose team legends but end up losing 1 vs 1. Now I'm consistently winning every 1 vs 1, so even tho the character does not help the team itself, it feels like I win more and have better games because I can actually just win fights.
I literally pick only 3 people... Ballistic, Crypto, Caustic- Your channel has been such an inspiration to me working on getting better at playing Ballistic's kit
Rowtide has the potential to be a big apex content creator, big kill grinder, and great apex player and is still unknown by a lot of people you deserve at least 100,000 subscribers with how well put together these videos are put together keep it up man.
I started to play ballistic in season 19 and I agree that he's very slept on. When I play with friends they are surprised how good he really is and when we play customs they are not happy about getting Q'd every time (at 5.8k kills as of now)
Honestly WHY ISNT ANYONE TALKING ABOUT HOW HIS Q IS THE BEST ANTI-MIRAGE-ULTIMATE. The tactical ability just shoots towards the true mirage and keeps the heating symbol above him even in ULT so no more bamboozle
As a new player Ballistics is the first legend I’ve bought and I’m enjoying him so much. I don’t have movement abilities or recon abilities to crutch on so I have to learn good positioning and enemy recognition and his abilities help me in the fights immeasurably
I think Ballistic is a little under-rated this season. They say he has "no team utility" but Q's and ult do tend to tilt team engagements in your favor, I doubt we'll see him in ALGS but a solid legend.
I picked up Ballistic end of last season after discovering you and got about 600 kills by the end of it and am almost at 1000 with him currently, also Happy Birthday 🎂 🎉
I too am a ballistic main, love the grind man. Wish I was even a tenth as good as you, but I’m a roller player 😢. Happy Birthday and God bless brother 🎉🙏🎉
I think Ballistic is pretty good. I’d give him some sort of passive buff that changes based on his weapon he has equipped. I wish his ult had a shorter cooldown but that would break him I guess.
I think you should put Ballistic to the real test by playing ranked and reaching masters/pred, to really show the Apex Legends community how viable he can be in ranked and not just general pubs :)
number 2 ballistic for kills last season here i did not know you had a youtube channel LOOL also you should of said in the opening of the video SO i got a gun and started shooting LOL
Rowtide and any ballistic mains I am thinking of him being my next ledgendary unlock I have tried him in the firing range and he seams like my cup of tea do you think he is an enjoyable legendary in pubs and ranked (all ranking ledgends videos put him in bad for ranked and pubs)
I wont lie and say OMG HES THE BEST, 20S EVERY GAME, cause no legend is like that! At first Ballistic will be a bit of struggle but when you get to grips with his kit, what I can promise you is he is SO FUN! In the right hands he is super effective and makes the player and his team a tanky team with the ult! I really recommend you give him a try! Don't imagine you will immediately understand his kit, but give it some time and you will see his potential!
Since Ballistic was released i've been conflicted, main Maggie or Ballistic? Ballistic's my only 20b legend also favorite and Maggie's amazing when her abilities work. Sell me on Ballistic, why main him over Maggie? Appreciate any responses, really curious to see what's said
@@MrSweetBeaks both are really good picks and I play a lil bit of Maggie and a lot of ballistic (2nd highest kills) both can be aggressive but the amount of times I can secure a kill because I Q someone with ballistic is insane. If one of my friends says "he's actually one" that guy is getting Q'd. The overheat is okay wish it would actually kill but I can't still secure a kill because sometimes they'll have to do the overheat animation then reload. His ult is one of the best imo. Fast reloads and depending on the sling (preferably havoc, re-45, rampage or anything with a hop up or a charge) is really useful.
@@pha3er642 I guess it goes like this for me, imo Ballistic is better then Maggie with both his passive and ult but her drill is SOOO damn good, i don't know if the drill alone out shines his ult and passive. I guess it's just a matter of preference but I wish they would buff Ballistics Q
@@MrSweetBeaks really in pubs just play who you find fun, in ranked if you play it I do play ballistic just because I find it easier to play who I'm comfortable with but Maggie is better in ranked then ballistic. Also the only thing they can buff about his q is letting the overheat kill. Because if they buff it's damage then he'll become too strong.
@@pha3er642 I can think of a couple ways to buff it other than damage. Overheat animation duration, slow on impact, was thinking of a flash but theres enough bs visual clutter, audio disruption or maybe a damage over time effect? There's definitely options, they gotta give him something with that pick rate lol
@@MrSweetBeaks the animation could go on like .5 seconds longer imo but all I want is over heat to be able to kill. But I don't think you should be slowed or flashed because that's just almost the time seer first released.
Yup, ballistic is pretty busted. He will be nerfed at some point, people just dont see it yet. I do understand his ranked flaws, but id still say he is really strong there too.
@@rowtide I'm honestly with you on this one, I don't understand why more people don't play Ballistic, I'm a Caustic main (aggressive, not defensive) and I know what it's like to play a legend that hasn't been meta for years, and Ballistic doesn't feel that way. A trio of Ballistic, Revenant and Ramprad can melt a lobby
@@VerbiGereando Legit, Ballistic may not be a legend like Horizon (now or in her peak) but my GOD is he strong, everyone who fights a good Ballistic or playing Ballistic says so, but no one plays him
Real. The statistics don't match AT ALL how it is to actually play him. I'd never want him to be TOO meta (cause the normally results in nerfs) but he needs some more love!
We’re Ballistic mains, we defy the meta saying “Nah, I’d win.”
Fr ☠️
As a new ballistic main I can confirm I believe that I’ll win any fight w his kit idk what it is but you feel powerful
@@StarMunch9😂

Fun fact about Ballistic this season: if you put a single p2020 or Mozambique in your sling it will automatically give you akimbo.

@@rubrtt Movement is always top-tier, reason why Flash is inconsistent with his power level because speed is OP. But yeah, even though Ballistic has no movement I still think he's pretty damn good.
@@Myth-Enjoyer yea in The Flash he would win if the writers didn't nerf him in speed every fight
I’m legitimately surprised people aren’t playing Ballistic this season. His sling perk and getting auto akimbo makes him so good.
Shhh 🤫
Yeah dont encourage, we need the secret ballistic tech to be kept that way
Agreed
Yea ballistics really bad he needs a buff right😅
You don’t want a Ballistic meta. Trust me

Happy birthday by the way
Dude wtf, thank you man. This really means a lot! You've made my day man thank you
@@wadirt6702 Thank you man
your gameplay is why i'm picking up ballistic as a secondary main
I started to play ballistic in season 19 and I agree that he's very slept on. When I play with friends they are surprised how good he really is and when we play customs they are not happy about getting Q'd every time (at 5.8k kills as of now)

Fun fact: in this season, with the added akimbos means that Ballistic can carry around SEVEN guns (2 akimbo mozam/p20 in each slot + the whistler).
Happy early birthday bro

happy early birthday rowtide
Thank you Ryan!
@@rowtide np love the vid
Happy birthday Rowtide!!!🎉

Thank you dude
Yo I’m try a make apex content like u but i don’t rlly have the best recording settings could u make a quick vid of them or something?
I too am a ballistic main, love the grind man. Wish I was even a tenth as good as you, but I’m a roller player 😢. Happy Birthday and God bless brother 🎉🙏🎉
Appreciate you man, no talking yourself down, I bet your amazing
I would love to see if you can be the 1% in pred lobbies pls do a road to pred soon
I think Ballistic is pretty good. I’d give him some sort of passive buff that changes based on his weapon he has equipped. I wish his ult had a shorter cooldown but that would break him I guess.
rowtid love your videos man also my kill grinding is going great tbh and its fun also when is your birthday mate?
It was last Friday! Recorded this the week leading up!
Maining the DILF of apex
I think you should put Ballistic to the real test by playing ranked and reaching masters/pred, to really show the Apex Legends community how viable he can be in ranked and not just general pubs :)
watching this now mr tide!
ur intros are top tier love the editing
Appreciate you goat

that would be NUTS
Can u push rank I would love to see how far u get
Yup, ballistic is pretty busted. He will be nerfed at some point, people just dont see it yet.
I do understand his ranked flaws, but id still say he is really strong there too.
bro treated I'm self getting 1600 kills when i have 100 hours + and my career kills is 329
How many games have you played with Ballistic?
I believe 17K!
i wish i can get kills like you lol, im only around 1k kills on alter and average 100 kills a day, while you get 400, its not fair lmao 😂😂
Tier lists are dumb ballistic is good and I don't even play him that much anymore.
WAIT you can sling the AKIMBOS??? dude thats broken 😐😐😐😐😐😐
SO GOOOD!!!

yo rowtide can u stop 3 stacking on my servers, thanks!

ballistic isnt the worst hes not fun to fight like rev and horizon thats why people dont play him
Real. The statistics don't match AT ALL how it is to actually play him.

Dont care, make caustic twrk off
