DexertoThe most used Legends in Apex Legends Season 22
As of the start of Season 22, Pathfinder is the most popular Legend in the battle royale. The movement specialist has sat high in the meta for a while and now reins at the top of the list.
Respawn has tweaked his ability quite a bit over the years, and starting in Season 16, his speed on ziplines was doubled, and he can place his ultimate twice as far.
While there’s a bit of a learning curve, once you can master his skills, especially the Grappling Hook, you can start dominating matches. He’s easily the Legend with the strongest mobility in the game, so it’s no surprise he’s got the highest pick rate right now.
Octane is sitting in second place, likely thanks to how fun he is to use. He’s always the fastest Legend on the battlefield able to zip past his enemies and dash into action to aid his teammates thanks to his Stim ability.
In terms of the Support class, Linelife is the most popular Legend right now. She’s got fantastic healing and reviving skills and is an ideal choice for anyone looking to play more of a Support role rather than carry a match.
Wraith has always been a popular choice. Having the opportunity to take more risks and dip in and out of firefights with Into The Void is also something fans have always loved. She’s also ideal at getting her team out of sticky situations.
Finally, while Bloodhound has received various nerfs over the years, they’re still very popular, and as one of the easiest Legends to pick up and play, a solid choice for beginners. Their ability to gather vital intel on enemy and trap placements can really help teams get the upper hand. They also fit well into the majority of team comps, so if you’re unsure who to pick, Bloodhound’s is often a safe bet.
