ALGS Y5 has been announced following the Year 4 Championship final on Feb. 1, and a huge change is on the horizon to shake up the meta—legend bands. Apex esports fans were delighted by this as they expect a more diverse competitive experience.
While the Apex meta shifts every season, pro players’ adaptability and resilience remain the same. They will have a lot to adapt to as they head into year five of the ALGS—and viewers like myself are excited for what’s to come. Not only do we get Broken Moon joining the list of competitive maps for Pro League, but year five is set to host a massive 160-team LAN event with double Elimination Brackets. The icing on the cake, however, is the legend bans planned for year five, which will turn everything we knew about competitive Apex on its head.
