Pick Rates Apex Legends: Who’s Hot and Who’s Not?
Alright, listen up, y’all. Let’s talk about this Apex Legends thing. My grandson, he’s always yelling about “pick rates” and who’s good and who ain’t. Said I should tell ya’ll about it, so here I go.

So, what’s a pick rate, you ask? Well, it’s like this: it’s how many folks are choosing a certain character, or “Legend” as they call ’em, in the game. The more they pick ’em, the higher the pick rate. Simple as that.
Now, some of these Legends, they’re real popular. Everybody and their brother wants to play ’em. Then you got others, sitting in the corner, gathering dust. Like that old tractor in my barn, nobody wants to touch it.
Why do Pick Rates Matter, Anyway?
My grandson says it matters a whole heap. See, if a lot of folks are picking a Legend, it usually means they’re good, or at least easy to use. Or maybe they just look cool, I dunno. But if a Legend ain’t getting picked much, well, maybe they ain’t so hot. Maybe they got some problems, or maybe they’re just plain hard to figure out. Like trying to teach a pig to sing, some things just ain’t easy.
- High Pick Rate: Folks like ’em, probably good.
- Low Pick Rate: Not so popular, maybe not so good, or maybe just too tricky for most.
Who’s on Top? The Popular Kids.
Now, I can’t give you exact numbers, ’cause they change all the time, like the weather. But from what I hear, some of the popular ones are always up there. You got your fast fellas, zipping around like chickens with their heads cut off. Folks like that Octane character, always running and jumping. Then there’s the ones with the fancy powers, like that Wraith lady, disappearing and reappearing like a ghost. And don’t forget those big tough guys, the ones that can take a beating and keep on coming. Like Gibraltar, that big fella with the shield. My grandson says he’s like a rock, hard to move.
Who’s at the Bottom? The Forgotten Few.
Then you got the ones at the bottom, the ones nobody wants to play. Like that poor Catalyst character, I hear she don’t get picked much. Maybe she’s got some problems, or maybe folks just don’t understand her. It’s like that runt of the litter, always getting left behind.
Pick Rates and You: Finding Your Legend
Now, just because a Legend has a high pick rate don’t mean they’re right for you. And just because they got a low pick rate don’t mean they’re bad. It’s like choosing a dog. Some folks want a big strong one, some want a small yappy one. It’s all about what you like and what you’re good at.

My grandson says you gotta try ’em all out, see who feels right. Don’t just follow the crowd, he says. Find your own style, your own Legend. It’s like finding the right pair of shoes, gotta find the ones that fit.
Changes and Updates: Keeping Things Fresh
The thing about this Apex Legends game, they’re always changing things. They tweak the Legends, they add new ones, they mess with the weapons. So, the pick rates are always shifting around. One day a Legend is on top, the next day they’re on the bottom. It’s like trying to keep up with the gossip in a small town, always something new to talk about.
Season 20 and Beyond: What to Expect
My grandson told me they just had a big update, Season 20 they call it. Shook everything up, he says. Some Legends got better, some got worse, and some new ones came along. So, the pick rates are probably all jumbled up right now. Gotta wait and see how things settle down.
Final Words: Play Who You Like, Don’t Be a Sheep
So, there you have it. That’s what I know about these “pick rates” in Apex Legends. Don’t get too hung up on ’em, though. Just play who you like, have fun, and don’t be a sheep following the herd. That’s what my old pappy always said, and he was a wise old fella. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go chase those darn chickens out of my garden.
And remember, pick rates are just a snapshot in time. They give you an idea of what’s popular, but they don’t tell the whole story. The best Legend for you is the one you enjoy playing the most. So get out there, try ’em all out, and find your own favorite.
Using Pick Rates to Your Advantage
But I guess these pick rates can be useful, too. Like if you’re new to the game, they can give you an idea of who’s easy to learn. Or if you’re trying to get better, you can see who the top players are using and try to learn from them. Just don’t be a copycat, though. Take what you learn and make it your own.

Don’t Forget the Fun
And most importantly, remember this game is supposed to be fun. Don’t get too stressed out about the pick rates or who’s the “best”. Just relax, have a good time, and shoot some bad guys. That’s what I always say. Life’s too short to worry about silly things.
