Apex Legends controller player humilliates PC opponents without aim assist

An Apex Legends player has switched his console for a PC, and been dominating opponents without the help of aim assist.

For players who use a games controller to play on PC, aim assist is practically a necessity, helping those who are using thumbsticks to find their targets more easily against opponents on keyboard and mouse.

The mouse gives PC players a significant advantage over their controller counterparts, as it allows for greater movement and precision aiming, but a controller player has proved that playing, and dominating, without the use of aim assist is entirely possible.

In a video taken from a live stream, Apex Legends player Calamiti can be seen dropping a massive 26 kills on his PC opponents, and eventually finding the overall victory in his match.

As to why he likes to play without aim assist on, Calamiti said: “It doesn’t really help me in any situation.
