Well, let me tell ya, folks, if you’re into this game called Apex Legends, you might be wonderin’ which characters everyone’s usin’ these days. They call it the “pick rate,” and it’s basically just how many folks pick a certain character to play with. You see, some characters, they’re real popular, and others, not so much. So let me walk ya through what’s been happenin’ with these pick rates and how they’ve been changin’ in the new season. It’s like when everyone in the village starts pickin’ the same kinda potato to plant — you just gotta know which ones are worth it!
Now, if we’re talkin’ about the latest season, which I hear is Season 21, well, the pick rates for different characters sure have shifted around. There’s always this one character, Wraith, who seems to be a real fan favorite. Some folks say she’s too strong, but you know, people just can’t help but pick her. Right now, Wraith’s pick rate is sittin’ at 8.7% (that’s like 33.51 outta a thousand, if ya want to get all fancy with numbers). You’ll find most folks playin’ her are still down in Bronze 3. That means, they ain’t the best players, but they sure do love her anyway.

Then there’s the big talk of the season, Valkyrie. Her pick rate is about 3.9%. Some people, they say she’s good for flyin’ around and stuff, but not as popular as others. She’s kinda like that one aunt who don’t come to all the family gatherings, but when she does, she sure makes an entrance.
And don’t get me started on Octane! You know, he’s got them crazy speed and jumpin’ moves, and it looks like folks love him too. He’s always near the top of the list, right alongside Pathfinder and Lifeline. They’re all real reliable, ya know, like the old tractor that never breaks down. Pathfinders are all over the place in competitive matches, and Lifeline, well, she’s like the healer you always want in your squad. I reckon that’s why they keep pickin’ ’em.
Top Picked Legends in Season 21:
- Pathfinder – He’s the first one everyone picks. Not too shabby!
- Lifeline – Gotta have that healing, right? She’s always a safe bet.
- Octane – Fast, agile, and keeps things hoppin’!
But not every character’s as loved as those. Some are a little less popular, like Wattson, or maybe Gibraltar. Some folks say they’re too slow or just don’t have the moves like the others do. It’s kinda like when ya got two potatoes, one’s big and fat, but it ain’t as tasty, and the other’s a little smaller but packs more punch. People like the ones that can move faster, get out of trouble, and pack a punch — that’s just the way it is.
Now, these pick rates change every so often, especially after they make them updates and change the balance of the game. It’s kinda like how the weather changes — one minute it’s all sunny, and the next, there’s a storm. But no matter how many changes they make, people still pick the same characters over and over. It’s kinda like folks who always choose the same kind of seeds for their garden — they know what works for them!
Who’s Got the Lowest Pick Rates?
- Rampart – She’s got a low pick rate, but if you know how to use her, she can be real strong.
- Caustic – Some folks just don’t know how to play with him, but if you put him in the right hands, he can be a terror!
As you can see, pick rates don’t just tell ya which characters are popular, but also which ones are maybe a little underappreciated. A low pick rate doesn’t mean a character’s bad. Nah, not at all. It just means people gotta figure out how to use ‘em right. Just like how some folks might not think much of the sweet potatoes till they find the right recipe, some legends just need a little more time to shine.
In the end, this whole pick rate thing is somethin’ you gotta keep an eye on if you wanna stay ahead in the game. You don’t wanna be pickin’ a character everyone else has forgotten about, do ya? Just like in the village, you wanna make sure you’re doin’ things like everyone else so you don’t get left behind!
