At the highest level of Apex Legends, it’s common for teams to call out a POI on a map weeks before the competition, claiming rights to safely land on the location without another team dropping on them. Directly contesting a POI against another team can prove disastrous when competing in the ALGS Split Two Playoffs, where only a limited number of games are played. However, one team found a clever way to fight back against their rivals at the expense of one of their players’ own life.
In game five of the Loser’s Bracket Round One, NORTHEPTION made a sneaky play that ruined the early game for their drop spot rivals in FURIA. Taida, NTH’s Newcastle player on Storm Point, solo dropped from his teammates on Lightning Rod, activating the IMC Armory nearby before deliberately jumping off the map.
