Apex Legends to Add Rainbow Six Siege-Style Legend Bans in Ranked, Insider Reveals

This addition could significantly alter the game balance if it moves past development.

Respawn Entertainment appears to be planning one of the biggest adjustments to the Apex Legends ranked mode in recent years. Developers are reportedly considering a character ban system before matches begin.

Leaker HYPERMYST reports that the ranked mode might soon feature legend bans.

No further details are available yet. HYPERMYST holds a strong track record for accurate leaks regarding future Apex Legends updates.

Other multiplayer titles like Rainbow Six Siege and League of Legends already use similar mechanics. Teams ban specific characters before matches start. This adds variety, reduces the dominance of top-tier heroes, and makes matches less predictable.
