Hey man can you clear something up? In the gameplay trailer at 2:06 when she used her tactical she placed it good distance above her and immediately after she placed it pulled her up and over into the portal. There was a whole animation and visual effect for it but im not seeing that in any gameplay… is it not actually something that can happen???
@@woman2769yes it can happen, you take the cord up to the portal… Gaming Merchant shows it in his video
tbh horizon and alter are gonna be scary imagine camping in a building and u just get a random horizon ult behind you from nowhere
can u throw caustic barrels and ult inside the portal?
@@michelefioratti3591 no its the same as wraith and ash. U cant use any character’s abilities in the void
1:40 that laugh caught me off guard 😂😂
Hahaha same lmao
Came here to say this lol
Goofy ah laugh 😭
bruh
Shit kilt me
Alter future patch: - Tactical is now a minute cooldown - Tactical can’t be taken more than once - Gun is holstered for even longer after using tactical - Ult is now visible to everyone in the game - Ult now takes 10 seconds to take back - Ult now only works if you are 100 meters away - Teammates can’t use ult
Can't wait to hear the cry babies when they nerf her to
-tactical now has a 10 second activation animation (slower then wraith's tactical animation)
I feel they will just increase her own animations more once an ability is used to delay her from doing other stuff.
@@godofgames6366 even more stuff to make her bad
@@godofgames6366 There is no objective difference between adding cooldown and increasing animation time. One is just PR speak for patch notes
Can't wait to spend 2 seasons learning how to play Alter only for her to get crippled once some pro uses her in algs.
Exactly the pros say jump respawn says how high?
1:44 new laugh unlocked 😂
She is going to get nerfed into the ground. She looks like a blast, but it seems like a lost cause since she'll be decimated in her next balance pass.
Oh definitely, Respawn will NOT tolerate Alter for long lol.
So play her as much as u can this season, coz next one shell be grounded
Thanks Captain Obvious. No crap she’s going to get nerfed. Like everything else that’s new. It’s not balanced. It’s only an idea and they have to test it and see how it works with everything while also purposefully making it strong so it gets people to want to purchase the character. So THEY (EA) can get paid. It’s simple really and it’s the same for everything else.
Fr even though she isn't even starting out like seer😂
She's not even that good the only thing I seem is decent was the tac because u can be creative but has the same bad things from qrait portal as then can follow or use it anytime so if ur in a fight it could put u at a disadvantage or just be useless
1:44 goofy ass laugh 🤣
Fozzy!!!
Ngl, seeing health bars after going through the tac is gonna be insane for frag potential
The tac making a rope going from the ceiling to the floor seems a bit op. It’s literally a better ash ult/ horizon tac in one ability.
seems strong, but idk if it matches horizon Q since you can even heal on that
@@alexp.8415they have their trade offs. Horizon can heal but get shot and altar is invincible but can’t heal.
Not even close to ash ult... The rope only comes down when you are going vertical if I'm not mistaken.
It is literally Ash's ult. The original version of her ult before she was released was the ability to portal through walls and is probably why it has that garbage lock on mechanic they refuse to get rid of
@walkermott1750 The amount of times I've moved a hair over and whiffed my ash ult is infuriating...Idk how they could fix this though.
There will be some hilarious video clips of Alter + Wraith duo portal trapping people. It's going to be like one of those endless stairwell paintings.
beanbag licking his lips as we speak
This is what I fear. There’s about to be a whole bunch of void nexus ash, wraith, alter, maggie-caustic- catalyst ulting bullshit as soon as they come out the other side of alter’s tactical and they get away for FREE. We should be able to shoot that tactical to eliminate it and there definitely better be a delay on coming through the portal because I don’t see a good enough counter for this shit….
However this is the perfect character to handle getting 3rd partying or you could use it to be on the offense to 3rd party. This character single handedly and simultaneously solves 3rd partying but breaks every other aspect of this game lol. The cons of her being op far outweighs the cons (as usual) and we knew that.. we’re going to have to adapt and do what we can for the next 60 days
@@maybejustafew1031build a stout triangular watson fence and caustic trap around the portal. Taking into account the quick shifting time, you can snare an opponent with the right placement of a Watson fence, and the rear “leg” of the triangle is to punish before she re-enters. I’m sure Lamic will find a way to counter Alter pretty soon. The caustic gas further slows and disorients the opponent. Also you can shoot cluster nades at the portal with fuze for free damage/area denial. You can thermite it, you could shoot a maggie drill right at it or near it, or on to a wall perpendicular to it. There’s tons of creative ways to counter an Alter portal. And the infinite loop scenario I imagine would be incredibly rare to even get to work, as well as the fact that it’d only be viable to stall the opponent since you can’t shoot them either, good luck setting it up in time to leverage a reset against an injured opponent
She has skills of a Loba, Wraith, Ash, and OG Rev aaaand Seer ..she’s cool af
I want a better passiv now
After seeing the verticality of this thing I hope they adjust Ash. It's basically a better Ash tear when used vertically
And then the noobs online still have the nerve to say “Ash has her niche she’s fine, Alter doesn’t affect Ash” meanwhile Ash’s two uses were getting into buildings and taking high grounds and Alter can do both 😭😭😭
@@fallasleep3513ash use was never to get into buildings it’s to engage fights or quickly reposition Ik ur gold 4
@@moneytopz4001Apex ranks are for pedophiles and Danganronpa fans. The only thing that matters is your pilot generation, and I can tell you've never regenerated.
@@moneytopz4001her portal used to be able to go through windows, so she could port inside and potentially surprise a team. I think they shadow patched it out a while ago.
I disagree. I believe I have a valid counter argument to this. I’m a Wraith main but my secondary is Ash, I used to have similar sentiments when I started using her when I compared her to wraith such as “Why does Ash have a phase/portal hybrid ult when Wraith already does that”. But answer was simple the more I played, and it relates to Alter as well. If me and my team are trapped and need to get from point A to B within seconds, there is no better ability than Phase Tear. Wraith portal is more methodical and versatile when covering long distances. And just like Wraith, Alter can only do ult repositioning if she herself is separated from her team. Alter tactical has amazing potential but is more position oriented. Ash ult can be used on the fly with minimal barriers. All three void users have their purpose to me. Ash is a great offensive asset to create pressure, Wraith is the most evasive and has the smallest frame, and Alter is a breacher who can make a strong push to finish fights.
The fact that you need a strong map awareness to be able to be good with her tact is great. She’s made for a day one player. I love it.
true
The sound she makes when entering a portal makes me think of Nightcrawler... For that alone, ill main her. 😂😂😂 And she even has a tail.
I swear you always make the most informative videos and I appreciate them to the fullest I'm going to enjoy playing her.
I feel like Alter/Wattson is gonna be a phenomenal combo next season
That “no pun intended” giggle made my day. Couldn’t stop giggling for 5 minutes
That laugh caught me hella-off gaurd ad I almost spit out my coffee LOL.
Imagine if all the legends were overpowered? The game would be so much fun and energized. But unfortunately streamers are such cry babies, they made Apex a watered down version of what it could have been.
Yeah it sucks. That and EA being greedy are the two worst parts of apex in my opinion.
@@landonskeen Yup, corny streamers and community and greedy EA.
Exactly 💯 that's the reason I stopped playing Apex i started playing Apex from season 1 and stopped it now cuz there's no fun now
@@ehltv3968 For real, it's like we have 50% of the Apex experience now.
@@mohamedrafik9271 yes 💯
I am frankly shocked by the possibilities she will offer. Also that ult range made my jaw drop. There's no way that they'll keep it that way for a long time. Once the nerfs hit I'll probably find a way to play her from time to time regardless.
To be fair, death totem was even more powerful for a long time - a free push and a free escape from death. Her ultimate is *just* a free return.
@@VollkinSea its not even free though. they can take the rift that spawns when you take it
Right off the bat, two minutes in, it’s not only stepping on loba toes but ash as well! As she will also know where deathboxes are and have a similar heads up to where action is happening
Thank you very much for this. I think this is going to be a great legend, lots and lots of potential ❤
breaching a wall while someone was holding a door was one of the very first things i learned, alongside seeing deathboxes and how crazy the distance is being able to get in. instantly changed from loba to main her
Thank you best explained video on her I've seen
I came up with a legend like this that I submitted to respawn so I’m pretty excited so see something similar even if it’s not from my idea. I think I might actually have a true main.
Everyone’s new main Love her and hate that they’ll absolute destroy her midseason
I like being able to put a face to the voice now . I also love your content ❤
This was a badass review... I haven't played in almost 2 years . I just havent been in mood but love this legend she seems fun going play amd your break down was great..older gamer here andoved the video breakdown thanks..sub
Great video ! Thx sr
So, Have a wattson at the nexus with fences and revive have 2 other legends push the enemy, doesnt matter if they get knocked they can go back and get a revive, its a more manual rev ult :p
With the vertical you could also have your teammates already on a roof, bait a push taking a little damage, they follow you up for the kill not realizing your whole team is up there to gank them
Great video
This is op man 😂
Thanks🎉
VERY GOOD VIDEO!
The passive is nasty when your in heated areas with lots of fighting being able to just take ammo or heals from a far is crazy
W video can’t wait to finish finals and play apex again 😭😭
If you observe the death logs, you can possibly determine the enemies weapons and location, all with alter's passive. The downside is you would need a visual of the death box (So you can see yhe player's name) and its hard to keep track with death logs
Can you throw nades through the tactical?? & ults?
That laugh made me subscribe 😂
I wonder if you can throw anything through the tactical, like a Maggie ball, Fuse knuckles, grenades, etc
I've been a Bangalore Maine for a while,but if Alter comes out like this being this good I might have to switch because Bangalore doesn't do enough right now except for maybe blocking off site or bang ulting but they did do a Nerf to digi's so with that being said you have to pick up a shotgun or secondary that can see through the smoke
maggie drill tech comin in useful
I definitely see her as a breaching meta. Her alt paid with a lifeline would allow her and another teammate to breach a door or just go out and get kills. But if they get knocked they just portal back for the quick revive. Her, Watson/caustic(even though he got patched again!!) and lifeline could make for some nasty work. You'd think you have two knocked and portal in to small room with traps and grenades
From the changes I read about the legends perks, guns updates and also abilities from current legends. I believe it balanced the game so much (finally) where a lot of comps can be viable now. For example, for the defensive comps like (watson, castle, hound), with the new legend abilities (and even now) you may not be safe inside a building as you think. Also, makes another legend step up, bc of abilities to counter another abilities. I like this, almost every legend will be if not all playable competitive (rank and tournaments). Personally we just need a touch in rank settings (no splits, makes all of your efforts to rank up to be wash away, you have to grind again what you did, mas no sense to me) and the points system for me needs an adjustment not a big one, make it as close as tournament close as possible. What I mean is, for top 5 teams should be rewarded more points even with 1 team kill (1 or 2 assists for example). With this, ranked will be more close to a rank game, where everyone wants to rank up and for that you need good placement and if you have some assists only or kill is ok. With this also people will not just drop immediately (like in a normal game). Although the drop will be removed (IDK if it is this Season or just in tournaments). The rest of it is pretty awesome! :D (Just fix servers overall, get better ones :) )
You can count on Dazs when a new legend arrive ❤
Alter is insane, going to be a very high pick rate!
Good video
I can't wait to try her out, she seems so insane
Nexus should definitely be placed around doors it seems like. I did not know that it creates a portal for the enemy to follow you. The Nexus will definitely be used when you are low or in a bad position, so having a door to hide behind for at least a battery will be huge. Otherwise, they could ape you by following you who is presumably low and just murder you dead.
Assuming you do not have a defensive legend of course.
the ult can be good to get the team to one poing while your fiiting to them to help or get out of zone
I already see the crazy edits people going to do with the tactical
can the enemies see the Hp aswell if you pick that upgrade?
Can I nade through the portal? If so does it keep its direction or momentum
1:40 Goofy ahh laugh (Goofy micky mouse)
All the movement guys and highly mechanical mnk players are gonna have a field day with this legend. This is the first time in a long I've been excited for a new legend
Make special animations for the Katar when inspecting: Fire=flame thrower ect.
Does her ult create a portal where she uses it or create portals for each teammate current position
This one is changing the entire freaking game
1:43 the laugh tho LOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Fr
Any word on quads? Or new/better ranked rewards
I wonder how tac port will work if you place newcastle wall right in front of it, or something else, I expect a lot of bugs coming with it😅
The tactical is really cool
Dude that tac is insane
Hard meta is now alter crypto rev. Place portal, crypto ult, go into phase when blast hits to avoid emp. Push with rev ult
1:39 the laugh😭😭
hmm sooo can you throw grenades and stuff through the ability/can other abilities like fuse nades and crypto ability go through???? hmmmm
Some basic found lore i think may be part of her story line. The fact Catalysts friends were talking about how "Olympus" fell onto broken moon even though everyone else was on The actual Olympus which means Alter isn't from a different world unlike the others, insteas she comes from an opposite Reality where most people are the opposite because if you have the season battlepass, you can see the emotes where they get sucked in and teleported out as a different person, which means theres a possibility That theres a world in this reality where alter does something else other than phasing through walls :D
Im a loba main and for sure gonna main Alter next seasons 100%
That character remind me for Revenant before change. I really miss the old Revenant and i want him back so much :(
With her passive, can she grab ammo as well as the one item?
Imagine being in a room you here some new sound and next minute your rooms on fire a Maggie balls bouncing around and knuckle clusters and nades start going off hahaha
Rev and conduit are still annoying to fight against so I don’t think she will get nerfed heavily when they do decide to. Her whole look lore and personality is enough for me to main her if I’m honest 😅. Only reason why I stayed with wraith for so long was because I love her vibe and quips.
Imagine late game algs , co existing is gonna be crazy 😮💨
Will be so fun to catch alter with Watson's fences😅
Can use your passive to pull Ult Accels for your Watson to stack.
The traps with her ultimate is insane
can u throw nade etc through ult?
i can't be the only one having some crazy ideas with her ult....... cuz an aggressive squad with this is literally a menace.....also with this ALGS can now have the option to push a squad cuz they know they can always get back to their position
Imagine playing her in contrast with the new cat ability to rebuild doors. Barricade doors and then u can just come out the sides of buildings to push a team trying to break the doors
6:06 good tip!
Question???? Are you able to throw grenades and use horizon ult through her Tac?? Or like can Ash throw her tac through it? Can Mirage tac through it??
I don't know but you can bounce the nexus off of a launchpad!
And question is it possible to run plays in apex like a football game like call out “code blue” for a flank??
You can callout anything if your teammates understand what it means 💀💀💀
Loba is completely different when it comes to gift from the rift, bc alter can only take 1 item out of deathboxes only, loba's ult allows her 3 items out of anything including deathboxes in a bigger radius, its not even close to the same so its not gonna be as broken as ppl think unless there is a shit ton of deathboxes
this legend is gonna go crazy on the new map, which has like 100 buildings.
Can you throw caustic traps threw the portals?
From an offensive perspective, Alter’s ultimate ability is far better than what people think. You get the benefit of pushing with full health unlike rev totem and being able to reset from any point unlike when you use wraiths portal offensively. Yes you run the risk of getting knocked, and yes the ultimate takes time to activate. But how is that any different than using a battery in a normal push. You now have a failsafe against the team you’re pushing and as a bonus against third parties The positioning of the ult is what’s going to dictate what it’s better for. If there’s a decent chance you won’t be immediately third partied, then place it from a position where you will be able to quickly reset and anchor. If there’s multiple teams around and you want to push anyways then you place it as if it was a rev totem In all other aspects the ult is lackluster, but I would argue that this is the first skirmisher that provides an ability that the entire team can use reliably for fighting since you are essentially able to reset instead of getting knocked. All other skirmishers really only help you reposition or run
yeaaa... she's gonna make me come back to Apex🍽️
Does crypto alt work on the tac?
Imagine a Octane, Alter,Wraith combo with movement 🤯🔥
Can her teammates use her nexus even if she hasn't used it yet herself? If so, I can see it also working for the Alter player to have her team regroup on her rather than just everyone regrouping at a previous point. E.g. if she's entry fragger and a controller legend is too far back for a concentrated push, or if she manages to take some space after crossing a highly contested zone late game
If Watson has fences placed inside a building along the wall's and alter uses her tac threw the wall, will they get fence stunned?
Well... I don't think there's another guide out there already so... yeah 100% best one
2 Questions: Can she take as much ammo as she wants like Loba ? and if so, does it not count as an “item”?
She looks very strong but it's far from being op in my opinion. The q is the strongest part of her kit no doubt but is a double edge sword so it really depends on the skills of the player, and that's also good. The weirdest thing to me is the vertical q on horizontal surfaces. I have a strong feeling that is going to be removed entirely, looks too easy to abuse. Passive and ultimate are fine, a selfish loba market and an improved death totem(both good but nothing special). It all comes down to your mind games and positioning, two things that luckily enough required skills. I can already see players get bored of her just because they can't use her effectively.
Using a Crypto ult when your team has Iframes from the Alter portal would be insane for pushes
I like how this legend is only SUPER strong if you know how to play her well. Seer was busted because with two buttons(tac,and alt) you can put the enemies at such a disadvantage with near zero effort. Alter has a low skill floor because her abilities are pretty simple and straight forward and provide big benefit to her an her team, but they have downsides, and counters of their own. Also the skill CEILING is quite high, meaning she has so much potential and it relies on the PLAYER to be creative, and make the situational determination on when and how to use her abilities and rewards creative thinking. The only nerf I can see being warranted is a cool down on her passive because you can snag teammates so much ammo/so many heals just by rolling up to a massacre that just ended.
I think the most op thing is the team mobility. It's a safer horizon tactical. I don't think it's strong in close range combat.
Can you shoot through the hole or throw anything?
They should honestly make another healer with plants as an ability and they can heal with the plants they could also use vines to defend doors and maybe flower powder to blind?
Can you grab teammate banners with alters Passive???
