According to Apex Legends players, Alter, the game’s newest character, does not appear to be overpowered upon release as they have shared their initial opinions.
Alter, the latest addition to the Apex roster, has only been playable for a day since Season 21 was released. Players have already recognized her as a formidable yet fair character. As a Skirmisher Legend, she possesses unique abilities that enable swift repositioning for herself and her team, making her useful for initiating or evading battles with her Ultimate and Tactical moves.
Both Void Passage and Void Nexus are significant components of Alter’s abilities that could potentially be deemed overpowered if not implemented correctly by the developer.
Still, the general consensus among Apex Legends players is that the Legend in question is not considered overpowered.
In a Reddit thread seeking opinions on the Legend, one player remarked, “There has been a lot of talk about her being overpowered, but I believe Respawn has successfully balanced her. While her tactical is attention-grabbing and requires a brief pause before being able to shoot, her ultimate can have a significant impact when used correctly. However, if used incorrectly, it leaves you vulnerable and can result in a quick death.”
“I was concerned she would be too strong, but I haven’t had any trouble defeating her so far,”another person commented.
TSM Apex Legends professional player Phillip ‘ImperialHal’ Dosen shared his initial thoughts on Season 21 via social media and stated that he does not believe the new Legend will dominate the competitive aspect of the game.
The pro stated that, in their opinion, Alter has the qualities of a pub character rather than a comp character.
After her recent release, players appear to have a consensus on her current power level. However, some have noted that as players become more familiar with her abilities, she may become an essential pick as a Legend in the coming days.
“One Reddit user believes that Alter is currently in a similar phase as Valk was when she was first released. Although some may consider Alter to be good but not necessarily a top pick, this user strongly believes that in 3-6 months, Alter will become a must-pick character in the meta, just like Valk did 3-6 months after her release.”
It remains to be seen if Alter will make a significant impact on the Legends-played statistics as players continue to familiarize themselves with her abilities. Thus far, players appear content with having a well-balanced character upon release and not having to face another overpowered Legend.
