I am not contesting that Fortnite has reigned supreme in the Battle Royale genre. Fortnite did topple PUBG from its throne, and every game has been scrambling to catch up by adding some sort of Battle Royale gameplay mode. The biggest contender to Fortnite currently would have to be Apex Legends which came out of nowhere to hit 50 million players in its first month and may it have a long reign at the Apex of the genre. I believe that Apex Legends is better than Fornite, and I’m going to give you my five reasons why.

1. No Building System

Granted the ability to build walls and structures is the unique mechanic that sets Fortnite apart from all other MOBA or Battle Royale games. Unfortunately, this mechanic is unbalanced as bad builders are at a straight disadvantage. Not to mention that having a supply shortage in a firefight was almost guaranteed to get you killed and also an incredibly frustrating experience.

Apex Legends does not have these problems because it does not have this system. Apex Legends like DOTA and DOTA II rely on having characters that have unique skills and abilities that synergize well…
