What is the Apex Climb Report?

The best Legends to rank up in Apex

Most "meta" lists only show pick rate — what people play. The Apex Climb Report measures what actually works: the average RP gained or lost per ranked game for every Legend, computed from 456,390 real ranked matches over the last 30 days. Right now Fuse leads at +91.6 RP per game. Popularity and effectiveness often diverge — the highest-picked Legend is rarely the fastest way to climb.

Pair this with the live Apex tracker, the Predator cutoff, and per-Legend pick rates to plan your climb. Updated daily.
