Octane’s Ability to Rotate and Maneuver

Octane’s ability to rotate and maneuver quickly is the source of his power. He is much more about closing, flanking, running down, and fleeing squads. This ability allows him to introduce himself or extricate himself from a situation. Most squads have to play within a certain distance from each other for reasonable response time because their movement speed is relatively fixed. However, Octane can move so quickly with his ability because he can use stim back to back.

Sacrificing Health for Speed

Octane sacrifices health every time he uses stim, which is part of the spirit of extreme sports pushing yourself, like running in the red line. If you want to play him conservatively because you’re too scared about the stim taking a little bit of your health away, you can play him a little bit more defensively. However, some players are pretty confident in their shooting skills and aren’t worried about taking damage. They stim back to back to get in there, get the gun first, get the drop on people, shoot, shoot, shoot, and then hide in a corner and heal up.

Playing Octane Conservatively

Playing Octane conservatively is also an option. Some players stay with their team during fights, and if it gets hairy, they stim and get the hell out of there. However, it’s essential to note that if Octane gets too far ahead of his team, it can be challenging to deal with.

Octane’s Potential as an Aggressive Player

Super aggressive players are going to love Octane. He presents a real challenge to defensive players, and it will be interesting to see how they deal with him. However, the meta may change with his introduction, and we’ll have to see how it settles out.

The Challenge for Defensive Players

Defensive players will face a challenge with Octane’s abilities. His speed and maneuverability give him an advantage, and defensive players will have to come up with new strategies to counter him.

The Exciting Possibilities with Octane’s Abilities

We’ve been playing with Octane’s abilities for about six months, but we’re excited to see what players do with them. Just like with Bangalore’s defensive smoke, we never know what will happen until players get their hands on it. We expect great things from Octane, but we’re more excited to see what people do with his abilities.

Conclusion

Octane is an exciting addition to Apex Legends. His ability to rotate and maneuver quickly gives him an advantage over other legends. His abilities can present a challenge to defensive players, and we’re excited to see how the meta changes with his introduction. We can’t wait to see what players do with Octane’s abilities and how he will shape the game. Thank you for playing our game, and keep streaming because we love to watch.
