Now, lemme tell ya somethin’ about them Apex Legends and their pick rates. I ain’t no fancy gamer, but I been hearin’ a lot about them legends and which ones folks be choosin’ the most. You see, in this Apex game, there’s a whole bunch of characters, or they call ’em legends, that you can pick. But not all of ’em get picked the same amount, no sir. Some of ’em real popular, while others, well, folks just don’t bother with ’em much.
Popular Legends in Season 21

Now, here in this Season 21, some legends, they been picked way more than others. Lemme give ya a quick rundown:
- Wraith – Oh boy, Wraith always been a favorite, ya know. She fast, slippery, and folks love her for that portal thing she does. Seems like every time I check, she always high on that pick rate list.
- Octane – Now, this fella here, he’s always runnin’ around, jumpin’ and usin’ that jump pad o’ his. Real fun to play, so lots of folks pick him too. He’s got that fast-healin’ thing goin’, so people like him for keepin’ up in the fight.
- Bloodhound – If ya want to see where enemies at, well, Bloodhound’s your go-to. They got this scan thing that makes it easy to find others, so lots of folks choose ’em when they wanna be smart about the game.
Now, these three, they kinda dominate the pick rates, but that don’t mean others ain’t worth tryin’. You see, some folks like to try out different legends, just to mix things up a bit. But when it comes to who gets picked the most, them three always stand out, especially Wraith and Octane. Wraith, she been popular since way back, and Octane, well, folks just love his speed.
Why Do Pick Rates Matter?
Well, ya might be wonderin’ why folks even care about this pick rate business. It’s simple, really. When a legend gets picked a lot, it usually means they real strong or real fun to play. So, folks follow the crowd and start pickin’ the same legends. It’s like when one o’ them farmers plants corn and the whole village follows, thinkin’ it’s the best crop.
But sometimes, pickin’ a popular legend don’t always mean you’ll win, no sir. You gotta know how to use ’em proper. I seen folks pick Wraith thinkin’ they’ll be invincible, but then they don’t even know how to use that portal right. So, pick rates matter, but skill matters more, if ya ask me.
Changes in Pick Rates Over Time
Now, I been lookin’ at how these pick rates change over time, and let me tell ya, it ain’t always the same. Back in April 2021, I remember some o’ them legends were way more popular than they are now. Like, one season a legend’s real hot, and the next season, folks barely touch ’em. That’s ’cause the game makers, they change up the legends a bit, make ’em stronger or weaker, and that affects who folks wanna play. It’s like when the weather changes, and folks switch from plantin’ wheat to plantin’ potatoes.
For example, lately, folks been pickin’ Horizon more. She wasn’t all that popular before, but now, with the changes they made to her abilities, people seem to like her more. Then there’s Bangalore, she been pickin’ up some popularity too, what with her smokes and all. So, pick rates, they can go up and down like the price o’ eggs, dependin’ on what the game folks do to the legends.
How Different Ranks Affect Pick Rates
Now, let me tell ya, them pick rates ain’t the same for everyone. You got different folks playin’ at different levels, and the higher up you go, the more picky folks get about which legend to choose. Like, them Diamond and Master rank players, they look at them stats real close. They want the best chance to win, so they only pick legends with real strong abilities, ya know? You’ll see a lot more o’ them high-skill legends get picked at the top ranks. But down in the lower ranks, folks tend to just pick who they like, not always who’s the best.

For example, a lot o’ Diamond players on PC and Xbox tend to pick legends like Seer and Valkyrie. That’s ’cause they got real strong abilities for fightin’ and movin’ around the map. But in the lower ranks, folks just go with Octane or Lifeline, since they’re easier to play. It’s kinda like when you’re workin’ in the fields—some folks use fancy tools, and others just use their hands. Both ways work, but one’s a bit easier than the other.
Conclusion
So, that’s the lowdown on them Apex Legends pick rates. Some legends get picked more ’cause they’re stronger or just more fun to play, but at the end o’ the day, it’s all about how well you can use ’em. Them pick rates change over time, dependin’ on how the game makers change things, and different ranks got different favorite legends too. If you’re thinkin’ ’bout playin’, just pick who ya like, but don’t forget to learn how to use ’em proper, or you’ll be runnin’ around like a chicken with its head cut off, not knowin’ what to do!
