Fuse is a formidable Assault class character in Apex Legends who can poke enemy players and destroy cover with his explosive ability kit. This legend can fit into a wide range of team compositions as having at least one aggressive character in the roster is important. However, this might limit the strategies that the team can use while participating in gunfights.

Apex Legends features five distinct classes to choose from — Assault, Skirmisher, Recon, Support, and Controller. Players can combine the abilities of almost all legends to score squad wipes and win games. But a few combos perform better than others owing to their ease of access and damage output.

What are the best duo picks for Fuse in Apex Legends?

Here is a list of legends players can pick to make the most out of Fuse in Apex Legends:

1) Mad Maggie

Mad Maggie is another Assault character with a destructive ability kit. Her equipment can be combined with Fuse to quickly take down structural covers like building doors and Rampart walls. The signature ability can be used to drive enemies out of cover and corners, making it easier for Fuse to spam grenades and inflict a chunk of damage on the opposing squad.

Mad Maggie's ultimate can stun any enemy and slow their movement speed for a short duration when it hits. This can be used to make them easy targets for Fuse to land the Ultimate and trap them inside the ring of fire. In this situation, the entire team can spam grenades to score a few quick eliminations.

Fuse's ultimate highlights enemies near the flames making them easy to spray down with bullets. Maggie's passive allows her to move at full speed while carrying a shotgun which can be used to take close-quarter fights as opponents try to heal their wounds from Fuse's abilities and explosives.


2) Horizon

Horizon is a Skirmisher legend with the ability to quickly create vertical movement routes with her signature ability. This can be used by Fuse players to gain height, deploy grenades on enemy teams, and continuously deplete their medical supplies. It also provides a great opportunity to launch the Fuse's ultimate ability with a clear line of sight.

Horizon's ultimate does not deal any damage directly and only acts as a zoning trap that can pull characters close to the Black Hole and slow their movement speed temporarily. Fuse's ultimate ability can be combined with this to create a region that cannot be escaped without taking heaps of damage.

While these abilities are active, both legends can spam grenades to ensure the enemies lose a lot of their armor and health. The team can then swoop in and use their weapons to finish off the trapped targets. It is an effective strategy to hold out teams from the circle during the final rounds as well.


3) Lifeline

Lifeline is one of the most essential Support characters to have in the team after the recent rework and buffs. Lifeline can heal allies from a distance with her drone and even reassign it to others whenever necessary. This allows Fuse to play a bit more aggressively without needing to worry about healing. However, you will need to pay attention to your shields as Lifeline's drone can only heal the health bar.

Lifeline can also deploy her ultimate to provide complete horizontal cover for the team. Inside this zone, all members can heal faster and rejoin gunfights with ease while enjoying the cover of the impenetrable shield. Fuse can also use this cover to safely deploy his own ultimate ability and trap opponents. Since the top of the zone is open, it can used to throw out vertical grenades.


4) Crypto

Crypto is a capable Recon legend in Apex Legends as he can utilize the drone to find enemies hiding in the vicinity. This can be done to help Fuse players accurately land the tactical sticky grenade ability. This strategy is great for final zones when opponents try to hide behind makeshift cover. It will drive them out of the corners and waste their healing resources.

Crypto's ultimate ability can eat away a chunk of the enemy shields and restrict their movement speed. This can be used to catch opponents off guard and then trap them with the Fuse ultimate. Once inside the ring of fire, the opponents will be highlighted, making them easy targets. This combo can also be used during early rounds to rake in some extra kill points.


5) Caustic

Caustic is one of the strongest anchor characters in Apex Legends and belongs to the Controller category. Caustic's traps can be used to hold a part of the map without any problems and damage anyone who tries to rush in. Fuse can handle distant enemies and continuously poke them with the tactical grenade ability. This makes it easier to stay inside buildings while raking in damage to level up the shield.

Caustic's ultimate is similar to Fuse as it can be used to flush out enemies or put them in a disadvantageous situation. This can also be combined to hold down enemies inside Fuse's ultimate and then damage them with Caustic's ultimate. It is a very potent combo that is most useful when used in the final zones or inside buildings.
