For anyone interested, I just made a new channel for yapping about life and random thoughts, if you wanna check it out, its here: www.youtube.com/@AshYapss : )
i think before they rework her they should just remove the sluggishness. reduce her tac cooldown to like 15 seconds, make her tactical activate significantly faster, make it feel much faster to enter and leave it etc - just make it feel snappy and smooth. if making her tac feel better to use doesn't move the needle on her, then they should try giving her two charges, and maybe not allowing enemies to follow or something.
Hey man, same here , it s been nearly 2 months since I ve stopped playing and it feels like heaven. My mental health is amazing , plus I m actually having fun playing games again ( currently back to playing Elden Ring and Sea of Thieves) which I never quite had with apex since season 14 . Have a great day man!
ive mained alter since she released and i mainly played her cause her character design is so cool, but one tip i have for her passive is you can open a box early before u get to it and then shield swap, for example you can also see what boxes are worth looting and what arent aswell, her q is mainly good for taking height and her ult is meh
One of my mates in my "main playing Apex" squad mains Alter and has done so ever since I came back to the game last season, so all of my Apex experience has been playing with a "pocket" alter at all times, to the point that when we tried to switch up to the new meta, we played WAY worse 'cus relying on Alter's kit was all we really knew how to do lmao. I don't disagree with the points made, she's definitely a gimmick character at best but fortunately we're gold/plat players so the gimmick is all we really need to win and having nexus as a fall back when none of us want to play support is a lot better than nothing.... Still praying for buffs tho
i have an idea, (the ult may be hard to understand, english is not my first language but i tried my best) passive: just dobble jump using her tail or give her a higher jump with her tail (just somthing movment related with her tail) Tac: give her 2 and cooldown to 25 sec and lasts 10 seconds Ult: make her and her team go to another dimension (the void), while there they can dash/blink in the direction they are looking 5 times (kinda like tracer in OW) and then exit the void. level 2 evo Ringmaster Void vision level 3 evo (cant do names): allows you to see and shoot through void passage (tac) (cant do names): add 2 extra blinks/dashes
Actually, shooting through the tac is a great idea. You should be able to throw nades through it too. But only Alter herself can see through the tac. And people following through the tac is fine, but they should remove the ability for enemies to follow you through it.
As an alter main with over 2000 kills, i gotta say alter is not actually bad. She is just a very high skill ceiling character. Playing her for one week is nowhere near enough time to really understand her. Her tac is effectively a more versatile horizon tac since it has invulnerability, verticality, and horizontal mobility. Her ult lets the entire team play separate with effectively no consequence, assuming teammates don’t put themselves in positions where enemies could take it and her passive has saved me many times when i’m out of heals or ammo. She’s not bad at all, you just don’t know how to use her.
Completely agree w the skill ceiling thing I recently realized I could use her tac for dropping knocked teammates down to me say if their a floor above or sm
Her tactical should teleport you faster. Her passive could be like Loba's with unlimited ammo taking and one fully kitted weapon or full slot health packs retrieval and her ultimate could use a bit more adjusting. Or also be deployed faster. Maybe have her hold her ultimate and let it charge before pressing it again to insta teleport and press and hold to teleport instead of needing a 3 sec animation to deploy.
I am so confused. Is this like a serious video or troll? Well i am gonna explain anyway. Short answer: YES, SHE IS DECENT (*SIGNIFICANT BRAIN USAGE REQUIRED) Long answer: PASSIVE is excellent for early game or late for getting extra ammo, heals, nades and else. Although you cannot get armor at a distance, when the box is close you can still grab it through walls, whitch saved my day many times. Even if you can take only one item you can check if the box has what you need and determine if they are worth the effort of looting. Not only that, the passive effectively gives you deathbox wallhacks, whitch is very useful for 3rd partying or catching people while controler looting (notice the color changing). TACTICAL is a bit more niche, but mostly better and more versatile wraith Q. It requires good map knowledge and gamesence and in close quarters combat it is great at singling out opponents, making unpredictable pushes or escaping. Even if the push doesnt go well, it is very easy to go back and player usually dont tend to follow me back. It is amazing for getting highground for whole team and is only really rivaled by horizon Q. Even when not inside a building, the Q can be placed through terrain in most places. The ULTIMATE is very useful for backing out of a fight or avoiding 3rd parties. It can also used to extract downed teammate and if enemies follow through, they can be easily killed on the spot. OVERALL as a former wraith main, i find her kit not only extremly useful, but also highly fun. There are only a very few things i find more satisfying then getting a portal clip. I played her since release and I found a lot of success with her in pubs as a stomping legends but also in dia/master ranked (full squad recommended). HOWEVER i do agree that this season, she is not the ideal pick, mainly thanks to the support meta everyone for sure loves (not really her fault tho, this meta literary made most legends unplayable). Another downside is that people dont usualy know how the ult works and will never use it. I do not agree that she needs a rework. Some quality buffs would be nice, but personaly i would help her by increasing the power of her upgrades, whitch are currently very bad. For example one could increase max Q depth to 30m, increase range on ultimate or health regen after using the ult. ALSO, she is my waifu, so if ur gonna talk crap imma ring on your doorbell in 60 seconds. (thats a joke) (or is it?)
Nah, she kinda falls short on all her abilities. -Her ult is too long and is way too unpredictable in deployment and positioning. -Class passive is the worst of them all. -Her passive needs something extra or to be switched. Either give her an ammo stack when you switch guns or switch it to a double jump. - Her ult should allow you to kidnap downed teamates as most people will never learn how it works.
A third gun slot because of her tail like Ballistic.. swap sheild core from a deathbox through passive… ability to kidnap a Newcastle,Lifeline,Rampart or Gibby through their tactical or ultimates.. I enjoy her current kit but it doesn’t give te “Skirmisher” feel ngl
Been maining alter for the past season and have 10k on her now, i can definitely say that after using her kit for a while there is a lot more utility for it than you may first think. Especially when threestacking ranked with people who know will take portals and ult with you it can make for some unexpected pushes (mainly due to no one playing her thus not expected to get portaled on). Im currently #2 worldwide for items siezed with her passive(huge loot goblin) and i find that this just speeds up how i play the game. I never find myself having to actually stop to loot after a fight as i just do it while running or during a fight if im low on ammo or meds. I 100% agree with things like an extra tac or a longer range or depth on the tactical however. And maybe making the ult use time faster
The rework that I actually enjoy is that the tac is quicker in when is launch and cooldown, but also that the tactic remove the shield momentarily. In lore is ok because the rift can do the damage but also make it better outdoors. A unpopular opinion, give her the void reflex perk, you can give limited uses and for make it not broken, in that moment still counts the storm damage.
As someone who mains alter and has 15k on her, my girl needs her well deserved buff 😭, also the tac (the way i personally use it) don't breach with it unless the exit is out of LOS to the enemy, with that damn bug where you don't phase it makes it nearly impossible to push with it at times
I love Alter, played her in ranked last season with my trio, and I found that she was actually really good. Her tactical was able to help us rotate through walls or in/out of buildings, and her ultimate helped us get out of a fight and reset. Her passive, whatever, I didn't get the chance to use it much. However, I did find that she is a very situational character, especially when it comes to using her tactical. Even though several of the buildings on King's Canyon and World's Edge are two storied and very compact (which would make Alter's tactical more useful, I still don't find Alter's tactical being that much useful, and that is mostly due to the amount of open space throughout majority of the two maps. I find Alter's tactical not being overly useful on those two maps compared to compared to other maps like Olympus, Broken Moon and Electro District. Also, with the buffs majority of the supports got, it also pushed Alter further into her "low tier" spot. Even though Alter isn't my main legend, I'm still very passionate about the character and enjoy playing her a lot, I do think she is rather fun and more people should give her a try.
I definitely don’t want her tac reworked, just tweaked - she’s the only legend that can take people through walls, and it adds so much more depth to the game (also, kidnaps are fun). I’ve found her passive to be really clutch for late-game rezzes or when playing the edge of zone where going out of zone or into the open to loot isn’t feasible. All in all I do think her kit is naturally map-dependent, tricky, and a little finicky, but with some slight changes it’ll be good enough to be a unique, albeit situational legend that might not be broken but allows for some cheeky and/or clutch plays.
I love having a decent alter on my team I have a freind that is really good with alter and her ult combos really well with support meta as his recommendation would be to make her ult charge faster and que faster and give her 3 take charges with a 20 sec cooldown each
Bro I lovvvvee the vid can you keep doing these skits cuz it's so funny ps I love watching you when I'm taking a shit like I was watching this in the bathroom and was laughing my ass off like my parents were asking me what I was doing in there ....................................................................................................................................................................................................................,................................................. ............................................. .................................................................................................................... Could you carry me and ranked like bro solo queuing does not work at all bruh I swear
I fully committed a few hours last month to playing her and trying to get good with her, she’s great in ranked for “safety” while pushing teams and that’s about it
I actually love alter… but i am such a cosmetic person and i love her aesthetics haha. So i do kinda play her mainly cuz i find her skins and voicelines fun. It does seem like im playing a character without abilities a lot of the time tho. Theyre just so niche that aside from free highground and somewhat consistent escapes if ur playing at big pois u just cant use her ult or ability often.
I liked her a lot on edistrict last season but with support meta i think her ult would be a good ultra mega reset, but could be done by other legends too or by just stacking more support on top pf support 😂 so yeah havent played her this season except mixtape
I only play mixtape and ONLY Alter on mixtape. So if that counts, yes, i main Alter, just not in battle royale. I even have several clips of me using her portal to have many satisfying kills too
I been playing her a lot more when the new map was released. She’s really good on E district but the huge open spaces of EVERY OTHER MAP make her kit less helpful. I got 400 kills with her. She is fun tho.
I really like alter but only for her ultimate, I feel ill her tactical is the only “skirmisher” thing about her, which is really strange, I’d prefer if the tactical got changed or her role to go to something else
She's my main yes. Alter is a hard character to master i guess? I love the stealing shit and her nexus is nice if there's suddenly 3rd parties or 4th parties. The portal through walls is so usefull if you're smart with it. But yes, please give me 2 portals Edit: If people still don't know how her ult works, that's just a skill issue... Btw i hate to be that person, but the "fix her" jokes are kinda weird considering she's confirmed ace
I hit pred with her...... She is not bad het kit fits het character thé only rework she needs is the timer on her ult (and yes you can get rid of that with her perk) but than you don't have a tac ready every time. So - infinite ult - maybe 2 tacs / shorter tac
I think alter is an OK character. She seems like a character that should be a fast paced move around quickly legend. But she feels a little clunky and slower than she should be I’ve played her for 300 games the last couple seasons so plenty enough games to get the character down. If they leave supports in the state, they are her ult needs a colossal buff. I think a huge buff would be able to place her ultimate remotely by clicking a spot on the map. I think the character upgrade that makes the ultimate last forever should just be standard for it as well. I think that would drastically increase how aggressive you could be as well as make the ultimate less situational. I think her tactile cool down could probably use the 10 second cool down reduction baked in and given a different character upgrade. As well as the seeing enemy health bars should be baked in to the character as well. So you could give her two whole new character upgrades. Her passive is extremely situational and I think it’s OK. Considering she’s a skirmisher I think giving her a better passive could help her more since all the other classes have significantly better class perks. Maybe give her a slightly higher jump like her tail boost her up if you hold down the jump button, it would charge up a higher jump. Similar to how you charge the revenant tactical. So in summary what I would do to fix the character first of all the ultimate would be able to be placed remotely via your map and it would last forever by default. The second change would be in addition to her current passive she would now have the charge up jump. And lastly, the tactical would cast quicker. Then the two character upgrades that reduces her tactical cooldown and gives her health bar vision while in the void would be baked in. I would remove the ring console perk and give her two new blue armor perks that’s would be a choice between 1. make it where when you teleport to your void nexus the animation only takes .75 seconds instead of the 2 seconds it does currently. Or option 2. Make your passive tail jump go 50% higher as well as be able to grab items from death box 50% further away. And then, lastly, the new purple armor perks would be. Option one double portal charges but you can only have one active at a time. Upon activating the second charge the first one disappears. (this would allow you to place a second one while closing the first one giving you a way to escape and not allow enemies to follow you). Then option two. Can grab two items from every death box and can grab an armor swap if it’s a lower evo than what you have.(this just means if you have purple armor, you can grab blue or lower. Or if you have red armor, you can grab purple or lower.) obviously this could potentially be way over the top. But what they did for lifeline in Newcastle and Gibby, this season this doesn’t feel like it’s that egrigus.
I play on alter, I'm not even joking. I think if you reduce the cooldown of the ability, speed up the process of creating portals, then the alter will feel better.
Alter is still the only legend who I was able to win as both kill leader and final kill multiple times so in my book she’s gotta be the best legend for me
i agree that alter really sucks. she deserves to be better since she's such a cool character and i feel like one of the best and easiest ways to make her better is giving her better perks (they're probably some of the worst in the game)
8:53 I call bullsh!t! Her Ult is Perfect for jukes and escapes, especially if your solo. The enemy’s run past is in their bloodthirsty craze for your soul. (Yes I’m the casual Alter main…)
as of minute 2:12, i dont agree, her passive is not a problem, is super nice to be able to take batteries, ammo, etc from any death box around you or that mag you needed, etc. The main problem with her is the tactical that can only be used in buildings, cannot kidnap people below you, just above you and you cant even see them to kidnap at least 1 but that last part if fair, just use a bloodhound for example and you can do that. So the tactical in theory is suppose to be used a lot of times, in practica you barely can use it because of the way it works. About the trail that lead to you, well, if you arent sure if someone will see where you are and you are scared of that, dont use it or use it later, that is the least of your problems i can assure you. The thing that anyone can enter the tactical portal indeed is a bit complicated, either you can use it to be safe or use it to kidnap people but not be safe. Tbh i think the only teammates can enter it is better, but as i say below, the other things are great too. About the tactical, i think the idea is good but it should have 2 mode, on that can go through walls, ceilings, etc and other that do something else idk, maybe a kick portal like ash ult but much shorter as a quick reposition, and usable in all directions, to climb a building, or whatever you want, with that i mean, you create a portal like 20 meters from you and can be placed even up in the air, not attach to the ground like ash portal do. Simple have an icon that turns red color or something like that meaning isnt attached to the ground and a blue color meaning is attached to the ground Then you have the ult, a revenant totem but no doesnt work like that and tbh i kinda think a good buff should be to instead of get knocked and then use it, just teleport at 1 hp or if not, make it so it doesnt create a portal to follow them, that way it could be more useful, as of now the ult is barely unusable, i mean, now with the support meta you can get knock, use it, get res heal passively to full hp while poping a batt and now you are full before they can get to you, but it will be close, the portal opens more or less when the knock player is up and while he is finishing the batt or mid way, so you dont have much time to spare, also, if there are 2 knocked players on your team it will be almost impossible to get both back up and ofc impossible to be both not even with a battery popped. So in summary, just make the portals stay closed for longer or just remove the portal.
Yeah, for me I think it was too much of a change in how I would play. And honestly I didn't really see too much of an advantage to it. Like I don't know what's on the other side of that portal most the time, I'd rather not. And enemies able to take her ult as well, I'd rather not as well. I think the idea is there though. Though I can't really talk, I'm a Vantage main and she's been at 1% since just about the start. Lol.
My thing with her is her ultimate why do I have to look at it and position myself correctly lighting myself up with the ultimate to activate it? Why can’t I just hold the button when I get knocked and that’s it and also her tactical is super situational
i love alter, her character design is one of the coolest in the game. and i tried, so so so hard to use her, but she’s just so bad, especially for the current meta.
This week no, beginning of the season and the last 2 weeks last season I played her but she is pretty good just map dependent since most of the surfaces glitch her Q but she's good (it's not cope I swear)
I play alter but she’s just meh. Ultimate? Meh. Ability? Meh. And passive? Kinda good when stealing that gold back pack from loba. I do think she needs a buff to her ultimate. Just making it instant and still allow people to follow you is balanced enough. Her skill is already decent.
dont care enough to even think about her, I just play wraith octane gibby for aggressive. Lifeline Newcastle and conduit for support and pathy for team mobility she will never have a place on the meta
what if devs rework her tactical to be like split gate.. shoot through the portal.. or pick where the portal starts and ends. again like split gate. its a good idea in my opinion .. but i dont have faith in devs to even know how to execute it
8:51 WHAt do you mean. MY Man i Mean MY LEGEND i MEAN simply ashton *smily face*. Are you saying that y-. I mean AAAM yes yes her ult. Imagine a wraith phase where nobody is at but maybe a guy who chose to take that 200 meter phase to deliver you free loot :D. FUUCK ;C. But that must be TERRIBLE! in a solo invorment man. I GET YOU MAAAN!!! Where that someone has even less chances to kill you(ingame) cause they are the only guy shooting you while you are in your animation. TRUE fuck it let's just make every other legend like launch horizon. YOU ARE SOOOO RIGHT MAN!!! So you can use those magical sticks c:. Or rework her like REBORN LIFELINE!!! She's so hype rn right next to newcastle. YEP! My guy i am subbing rn. Much love with the content. mwa! Tho i feel ya tho. Alter is very unpopular. And that's never good. I would say Alter is very good rn solo q or playing as in a full stack. But that might just be cause she's undiscovered. I know Alter is not useless but that's just i play Alter endlessly amount. This video did piss me off tho. Don't see the point of it. Clicked on it hoping it being something that can be like a oh Alter is unpoular but she has these thing and these things and this might be cause people don't play her but i got the taste. ALTER IS TRASH!! DON'T TOUCH ALTER!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? PLAYUING ALTER?! WHAT LOL. Anyways c:
For anyone interested, I just made a new channel for yapping about life and random thoughts, if you wanna check it out, its here: www.youtube.com/@AshYapss : )
Me as a caustic main " i wish i had a passive"
Fr 😭 literally a worse Maggie, she gets it through walls and it's ANY damage ☠️
Pathfinder mains dont rlly need a passive they have like 10 abilities in one
Caustic is the worst legend in the game, worse than seer. His only "passive" really is that he is imune to other caustics.
@typhlo9797 fr 😭 the wall hacks through gas is literally worse than what they gave everyone that highlight ☠️
bro caustic should be deleted from the game, there is no need for passive
I found this channel through the yap channel which is kinda funny, but been loving the vibes
Otzdarva Apex play through when?
ive been playing her for the whole week and i can say it baffles me that people just dont know how her ult works
7:10 its a turbo 😭
i think before they rework her they should just remove the sluggishness. reduce her tac cooldown to like 15 seconds, make her tactical activate significantly faster, make it feel much faster to enter and leave it etc - just make it feel snappy and smooth. if making her tac feel better to use doesn't move the needle on her, then they should try giving her two charges, and maybe not allowing enemies to follow or something.
I stopped playng a month ago ,my mental health is super high now ,i just play what makes me happy cod zombies
Fr
That’s sad ngl
@@n30nbandithow?
Hey man, same here , it s been nearly 2 months since I ve stopped playing and it feels like heaven. My mental health is amazing , plus I m actually having fun playing games again ( currently back to playing Elden Ring and Sea of Thieves) which I never quite had with apex since season 14 . Have a great day man!
Why were y’all letting Apex effect your mental health if it got that bad you should’ve quit way before now😂
ive mained alter since she released and i mainly played her cause her character design is so cool, but one tip i have for her passive is you can open a box early before u get to it and then shield swap, for example you can also see what boxes are worth looting and what arent aswell, her q is mainly good for taking height and her ult is meh
One of my mates in my "main playing Apex" squad mains Alter and has done so ever since I came back to the game last season, so all of my Apex experience has been playing with a "pocket" alter at all times, to the point that when we tried to switch up to the new meta, we played WAY worse 'cus relying on Alter's kit was all we really knew how to do lmao.

Still praying for buffs tho
i have an idea, (the ult may be hard to understand, english is not my first language but i tried my best)
passive: just dobble jump using her tail or give her a higher jump with her tail (just somthing movment related with her tail)
Tac: give her 2 and cooldown to 25 sec and lasts 10 seconds
Ult: make her and her team go to another dimension (the void), while there they can dash/blink in the direction they are looking 5 times (kinda like tracer in OW) and then exit the void.
level 2 evo
Ringmaster
Void vision
level 3 evo
(cant do names): allows you to see and shoot through void passage (tac)
(cant do names): add 2 extra blinks/dashes
I don't like the ult idea bit the Passive and Tactical ideas are great as a Alter main i would love that
Double jump is not a bad idea! It would help her tac to second floor walls very swiftly.
Actually, shooting through the tac is a great idea. You should be able to throw nades through it too. But only Alter herself can see through the tac. And people following through the tac is fine, but they should remove the ability for enemies to follow you through it.
Personally alter is my main and i play her all the time its just a matter of knowing how to play her honestly
Thank you
Alters my main too. Learning how to use her is for sure a learning curve. It was for me at least.
@ it is because if your not able to actually use her abilities than obviously shes useless
I main her too, but I’ll admit she can definitely use a buff or two
@ for sure
As an alter main with over 2000 kills, i gotta say alter is not actually bad. She is just a very high skill ceiling character. Playing her for one week is nowhere near enough time to really understand her. Her tac is effectively a more versatile horizon tac since it has invulnerability, verticality, and horizontal mobility.

She’s not bad at all, you just don’t know how to use her.
Omg yes! Fellow Alter main! Thank you!
Yeah it took me time to learn how to use alter and once I got the hang of using her she became my main
Got already 3 k i'm addicted to her playstyle
Completely agree w the skill ceiling thing I recently realized I could use her tac for dropping knocked teammates down to me say if their a floor above or sm
Her tactical should teleport you faster. Her passive could be like Loba's with unlimited ammo taking and one fully kitted weapon or full slot health packs retrieval and her ultimate could use a bit more adjusting. Or also be deployed faster. Maybe have her hold her ultimate and let it charge before pressing it again to insta teleport and press and hold to teleport instead of needing a 3 sec animation to deploy.
i love your content, even though i stopped playing apex after season 8 came out, keep up the great work!!
I like AshtonYaps channel
I am so confused. Is this like a serious video or troll? Well i am gonna explain anyway.
Short answer: YES, SHE IS DECENT (*SIGNIFICANT BRAIN USAGE REQUIRED)
Long answer: PASSIVE is excellent for early game or late for getting extra ammo, heals, nades and else. Although you cannot get armor at a distance, when the box is close you can still grab it through walls, whitch saved my day many times. Even if you can take only one item you can check if the box has what you need and determine if they are worth the effort of looting. Not only that, the passive effectively gives you deathbox wallhacks, whitch is very useful for 3rd partying or catching people while controler looting (notice the color changing).
TACTICAL is a bit more niche, but mostly better and more versatile wraith Q. It requires good map knowledge and gamesence and in close quarters combat it is great at singling out opponents, making unpredictable pushes or escaping. Even if the push doesnt go well, it is very easy to go back and player usually dont tend to follow me back. It is amazing for getting highground for whole team and is only really rivaled by horizon Q. Even when not inside a building, the Q can be placed through terrain in most places.
The ULTIMATE is very useful for backing out of a fight or avoiding 3rd parties. It can also used to extract downed teammate and if enemies follow through, they can be easily killed on the spot.

ALSO, she is my waifu, so if ur gonna talk crap imma ring on your doorbell in 60 seconds. (thats a joke) (or is it?)
Spoken like a Alter simp and i love every Word of it ❤😂
HOLY FUCK i am so on your side.
Other Alter simps exist? I'm more like a respectful one... Since she's ace ig
Nah, she kinda falls short on all her abilities.
-Her ult is too long and is way too unpredictable in deployment and positioning.
-Class passive is the worst of them all.
-Her passive needs something extra or to be switched. Either give her an ammo stack when you switch guns or switch it to a double jump.
- Her ult should allow you to kidnap downed teamates as most people will never learn how it works.
Intro was just Heart warming 😊!!!
I Love you man!
The vibes on this channel are immaculate
I live for alter
Me too
Me too
Me too
Alter simps unite.
same
The ending was a sin! How dare you sir 😂 😂
9:26 Yo! That’s me noway 😮
Me with ballistic 🤣
A third gun slot because of her tail like Ballistic.. swap sheild core from a deathbox through passive… ability to kidnap a Newcastle,Lifeline,Rampart or Gibby through their tactical or ultimates.. I enjoy her current kit but it doesn’t give te “Skirmisher” feel ngl
Man i love your videos
Fantastic content and your editing is on point.
Been maining alter for the past season and have 10k on her now, i can definitely say that after using her kit for a while there is a lot more utility for it than you may first think. Especially when threestacking ranked with people who know will take portals and ult with you it can make for some unexpected pushes (mainly due to no one playing her thus not expected to get portaled on). Im currently #2 worldwide for items siezed with her passive(huge loot goblin) and i find that this just speeds up how i play the game. I never find myself having to actually stop to loot after a fight as i just do it while running or during a fight if im low on ammo or meds. I 100% agree with things like an extra tac or a longer range or depth on the tactical however. And maybe making the ult use time faster
The rework that I actually enjoy is that the tac is quicker in when is launch and cooldown, but also that the tactic remove the shield momentarily. In lore is ok because the rift can do the damage but also make it better outdoors.
A unpopular opinion, give her the void reflex perk, you can give limited uses and for make it not broken, in that moment still counts the storm damage.
lmao i havent played apex in months but i still watch your videos
Great video! can't wait for more yapping tho
ayo Ashton, that was the ebst video describing her so well and her problems. Can you maybe do Ballistic too? He defo needs some changes too.
I love your content!
Ngl I really like alter I've been maining her since her release
I pray for ur mental health
As someone who mains alter and has 15k on her, my girl needs her well deserved buff 😭, also the tac (the way i personally use it) don't breach with it unless the exit is out of LOS to the enemy, with that damn bug where you don't phase it makes it nearly impossible to push with it at times
Thanks to your dead games video I am a die hard Izonzo fan appreciate it
This video made me realize how much I want proximity voice chat
I love Alter, played her in ranked last season with my trio, and I found that she was actually really good. Her tactical was able to help us rotate through walls or in/out of buildings, and her ultimate helped us get out of a fight and reset. Her passive, whatever, I didn't get the chance to use it much. However, I did find that she is a very situational character, especially when it comes to using her tactical. Even though several of the buildings on King's Canyon and World's Edge are two storied and very compact (which would make Alter's tactical more useful, I still don't find Alter's tactical being that much useful, and that is mostly due to the amount of open space throughout majority of the two maps. I find Alter's tactical not being overly useful on those two maps compared to compared to other maps like Olympus, Broken Moon and Electro District. Also, with the buffs majority of the supports got, it also pushed Alter further into her "low tier" spot.
Even though Alter isn't my main legend, I'm still very passionate about the character and enjoy playing her a lot, I do think she is rather fun and more people should give her a try.
Epic commentary 👏
As an alter main I feel offended (I’m cheeks at the game)
9:47 these first few ideas could honestly make for some really good perks instead of the lackluster ones she has right now
I definitely don’t want her tac reworked, just tweaked - she’s the only legend that can take people through walls, and it adds so much more depth to the game (also, kidnaps are fun).
I’ve found her passive to be really clutch for late-game rezzes or when playing the edge of zone where going out of zone or into the open to loot isn’t feasible.
All in all I do think her kit is naturally map-dependent, tricky, and a little finicky, but with some slight changes it’ll be good enough to be a unique, albeit situational legend that might not be broken but allows for some cheeky and/or clutch plays.
As an octane main can u do a video on catalyst she shots out black guu
This man is the reason i still somehow enjoy apex.
I love having a decent alter on my team I have a freind that is really good with alter and her ult combos really well with support meta as his recommendation would be to make her ult charge faster and que faster and give her 3 take charges with a 20 sec cooldown each
Bro I lovvvvee the vid can you keep doing these skits cuz it's so funny ps I love watching you when I'm taking a shit like I was watching this in the bathroom and was laughing my ass off like my parents were asking me what I was doing in there ....................................................................................................................................................................................................................,................................................. ............................................. .................................................................................................................... Could you carry me and ranked like bro solo queuing does not work at all bruh I swear
I fully committed a few hours last month to playing her and trying to get good with her, she’s great in ranked for “safety” while pushing teams and that’s about it
good video brudda
we love u ashton!
Beef her up, so when using her ult, it provides a res when knocked and/or full health while getting away.
Oh my god, a simply ashton video :)
I dont even play Apex Legends tbh but ill still watch you're video dont worry
I actually love alter… but i am such a cosmetic person and i love her aesthetics haha. So i do kinda play her mainly cuz i find her skins and voicelines fun. It does seem like im playing a character without abilities a lot of the time tho. Theyre just so niche that aside from free highground and somewhat consistent escapes if ur playing at big pois u just cant use her ult or ability often.
I liked her a lot on edistrict last season but with support meta i think her ult would be a good ultra mega reset, but could be done by other legends too or by just stacking more support on top pf support 😂 so yeah havent played her this season except mixtape
Is wraith any better?👀
I only play mixtape and ONLY Alter on mixtape. So if that counts, yes, i main Alter, just not in battle royale. I even have several clips of me using her portal to have many satisfying kills too
good video, BUT.
7:13 that's a turbo man 💀
I prefer the idea that it’s a roll of tape 🥸
@@SimplyAshton valid
Bro is speaking the truth, alter sucks 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
(Can i also get a pin, ive never gotten one on a big vid before)
You wont get a pin cus Alter is actually good
I been playing her a lot more when the new map was released. She’s really good on E district but the huge open spaces of EVERY OTHER MAP make her kit less helpful. I got 400 kills with her. She is fun tho.
Yay ashton upload!!!!
I really like alter but only for her ultimate, I feel ill her tactical is the only “skirmisher” thing about her, which is really strange, I’d prefer if the tactical got changed or her role to go to something else
can you talk about ballistic next?
She's my main yes. Alter is a hard character to master i guess? I love the stealing shit and her nexus is nice if there's suddenly 3rd parties or 4th parties.
The portal through walls is so usefull if you're smart with it.
But yes, please give me 2 portals
Edit: If people still don't know how her ult works, that's just a skill issue... Btw i hate to be that person, but the "fix her" jokes are kinda weird considering she's confirmed ace
I hit pred with her...... She is not bad het kit fits het character thé only rework she needs is the timer on her ult (and yes you can get rid of that with her perk) but than you don't have a tac ready every time.
So
- infinite ult
- maybe 2 tacs / shorter tac
I think alter is an OK character. She seems like a character that should be a fast paced move around quickly legend. But she feels a little clunky and slower than she should be I’ve played her for 300 games the last couple seasons so plenty enough games to get the character down. If they leave supports in the state, they are her ult needs a colossal buff. I think a huge buff would be able to place her ultimate remotely by clicking a spot on the map. I think the character upgrade that makes the ultimate last forever should just be standard for it as well. I think that would drastically increase how aggressive you could be as well as make the ultimate less situational. I think her tactile cool down could probably use the 10 second cool down reduction baked in and given a different character upgrade. As well as the seeing enemy health bars should be baked in to the character as well. So you could give her two whole new character upgrades. Her passive is extremely situational and I think it’s OK. Considering she’s a skirmisher I think giving her a better passive could help her more since all the other classes have significantly better class perks. Maybe give her a slightly higher jump like her tail boost her up if you hold down the jump button, it would charge up a higher jump. Similar to how you charge the revenant tactical.
So in summary what I would do to fix the character first of all the ultimate would be able to be placed remotely via your map and it would last forever by default. The second change would be in addition to her current passive she would now have the charge up jump. And lastly, the tactical would cast quicker. Then the two character upgrades that reduces her tactical cooldown and gives her health bar vision while in the void would be baked in. I would remove the ring console perk and give her two new blue armor perks that’s would be a choice between 1. make it where when you teleport to your void nexus the animation only takes .75 seconds instead of the 2 seconds it does currently. Or option 2. Make your passive tail jump go 50% higher as well as be able to grab items from death box 50% further away.
And then, lastly, the new purple armor perks would be. Option one double portal charges but you can only have one active at a time. Upon activating the second charge the first one disappears. (this would allow you to place a second one while closing the first one giving you a way to escape and not allow enemies to follow you). Then option two. Can grab two items from every death box and can grab an armor swap if it’s a lower evo than what you have.(this just means if you have purple armor, you can grab blue or lower. Or if you have red armor, you can grab purple or lower.) obviously this could potentially be way over the top. But what they did for lifeline in Newcastle and Gibby, this season this doesn’t feel like it’s that egrigus.
They haven't even changed her directly. She's just been powered out of existence as there's too many counters to her entire kit
Just started watching and your videos are really fun! It is quite unfortunate that you're British :(
Agreed
I play on alter, I'm not even joking. I think if you reduce the cooldown of the ability, speed up the process of creating portals, then the alter will feel better.
Alter is still the only legend who I was able to win as both kill leader and final kill multiple times so in my book she’s gotta be the best legend for me
7:13 ... that's a turbo dude
They should have given her the ability to teleport teammates and objects like u place a portal somewhere and place another portal somewhere else
i love caustic and the mozambique the most :>
i agree that alter really sucks. she deserves to be better since she's such a cool character and i feel like one of the best and easiest ways to make her better is giving her better perks (they're probably some of the worst in the game)
The most recent legends released have all been kinda underwhelming. Alter, ballistic, vantage and even conduit to a degree.
I think if you could throw grenades through alter or shoot through them (but not see) she’d be an extremely viable option.
8:53 I call bullsh!t! Her Ult is Perfect for jukes and escapes, especially if your solo. The enemy’s run past is in their bloodthirsty craze for your soul.
(Yes I’m the casual Alter main…)
I think she needs tk be a assault class and her kit its fine just liked you just needs some twiks
I am an alter main and i enjoy playing her also i am going to lose my mind if one more person talks bad about her.
Alt her!?
I hardly know her!!!
Me scrolling youtube sees simply ashton vid *click *CliCk *CLICK *CLICK CLICK
Alter is my main xd and i hope her pick rate stays the same, she does have some issues, like long Q animation, Her ulti animation is also long,
Scoot the Woz
1:35 i was eating a banana and it felt
as of minute 2:12, i dont agree, her passive is not a problem, is super nice to be able to take batteries, ammo, etc from any death box around you or that mag you needed, etc. The main problem with her is the tactical that can only be used in buildings, cannot kidnap people below you, just above you and you cant even see them to kidnap at least 1 but that last part if fair, just use a bloodhound for example and you can do that. So the tactical in theory is suppose to be used a lot of times, in practica you barely can use it because of the way it works.
About the trail that lead to you, well, if you arent sure if someone will see where you are and you are scared of that, dont use it or use it later, that is the least of your problems i can assure you.
The thing that anyone can enter the tactical portal indeed is a bit complicated, either you can use it to be safe or use it to kidnap people but not be safe. Tbh i think the only teammates can enter it is better, but as i say below, the other things are great too.
About the tactical, i think the idea is good but it should have 2 mode, on that can go through walls, ceilings, etc and other that do something else idk, maybe a kick portal like ash ult but much shorter as a quick reposition, and usable in all directions, to climb a building, or whatever you want, with that i mean, you create a portal like 20 meters from you and can be placed even up in the air, not attach to the ground like ash portal do. Simple have an icon that turns red color or something like that meaning isnt attached to the ground and a blue color meaning is attached to the ground
Then you have the ult, a revenant totem but no doesnt work like that and tbh i kinda think a good buff should be to instead of get knocked and then use it, just teleport at 1 hp or if not, make it so it doesnt create a portal to follow them, that way it could be more useful, as of now the ult is barely unusable, i mean, now with the support meta you can get knock, use it, get res heal passively to full hp while poping a batt and now you are full before they can get to you, but it will be close, the portal opens more or less when the knock player is up and while he is finishing the batt or mid way, so you dont have much time to spare, also, if there are 2 knocked players on your team it will be almost impossible to get both back up and ofc impossible to be both not even with a battery popped. So in summary, just make the portals stay closed for longer or just remove the portal.
soon we'll have pathfinder reborn- Ayo D.O.C...💀
Almost 2k kills on Alter and she is clutch if you are a smart person, like actually smart so like 2% of Apex players...
Over 24K kills with just 2 guns is crazy 🥵
Investing in Alter because I suspect she's gonns get some heavy buffs
Yeah, for me I think it was too much of a change in how I would play. And honestly I didn't really see too much of an advantage to it. Like I don't know what's on the other side of that portal most the time, I'd rather not. And enemies able to take her ult as well, I'd rather not as well. I think the idea is there though.
Though I can't really talk, I'm a Vantage main and she's been at 1% since just about the start. Lol.
Gotta know how to play her, which i don't so i haven't played her much.
My thing with her is her ultimate why do I have to look at it and position myself correctly lighting myself up with the ultimate to activate it? Why can’t I just hold the button when I get knocked and that’s it and also her tactical is super situational
Seer and Alter fighting to find out which of them is the worst legend in the game....
That pathfinder jump scare in the start made me jump out of my chair
I did a lot of skipping
My condolences for you having to play alter for a week straight
i love alter, her character design is one of the coolest in the game. and i tried, so so so hard to use her, but she’s just so bad, especially for the current meta.
This week no, beginning of the season and the last 2 weeks last season I played her but she is pretty good just map dependent since most of the surfaces glitch her Q but she's good (it's not cope I swear)
I play alter but she’s just meh. Ultimate? Meh. Ability? Meh. And passive? Kinda good when stealing that gold back pack from loba. I do think she needs a buff to her ultimate. Just making it instant and still allow people to follow you is balanced enough. Her skill is already decent.
dont care enough to even think about her, I just play wraith octane gibby for aggressive. Lifeline Newcastle and conduit for support and pathy for team mobility
she will never have a place on the meta
what if devs rework her tactical to be like split gate.. shoot through the portal.. or pick where the portal starts and ends. again like split gate. its a good idea in my opinion .. but i dont have faith in devs to even know how to execute it
Funny enough i actually once had an idea for a legend but it required the voice actor to be a rapper... For advertising purposes... Obviously...
8:51 WHAt do you mean. MY Man i Mean MY LEGEND i MEAN simply ashton *smily face*. Are you saying that y-. I mean AAAM yes yes her ult. Imagine a wraith phase where nobody is at but maybe a guy who chose to take that 200 meter phase to deliver you free loot :D. FUUCK ;C. But that must be TERRIBLE! in a solo invorment man. I GET YOU MAAAN!!! Where that someone has even less chances to kill you(ingame) cause they are the only guy shooting you while you are in your animation. TRUE fuck it let's just make every other legend like launch horizon. YOU ARE SOOOO RIGHT MAN!!! So you can use those magical sticks c:. Or rework her like REBORN LIFELINE!!! She's so hype rn right next to newcastle. YEP! My guy i am subbing rn. Much love with the content. mwa! Tho i feel ya tho. Alter is very unpopular. And that's never good. I would say Alter is very good rn solo q or playing as in a full stack. But that might just be cause she's undiscovered. I know Alter is not useless but that's just i play Alter endlessly amount. This video did piss me off tho. Don't see the point of it. Clicked on it hoping it being something that can be like a oh Alter is unpoular but she has these thing and these things and this might be cause people don't play her but i got the taste. ALTER IS TRASH!! DON'T TOUCH ALTER!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? PLAYUING ALTER?! WHAT LOL. Anyways c:
alter passive i use to loot ammo for teammates or if i need heals i kinda like it.
