What are the best duos for Horizon in Apex Legends?

Here is a list of legends that Apex Legends fans can pick in a game with Horizon:

1) Fuse

Fuse is excellent to pair with Horizon as players can use the Gravity Lift to quickly gain some height and deploy Knuckle Clusters. This is a great way to have a better line of sight of the enemy squads as maps usually have a lot of varying terrain and cover in between locations. This can be used to quickly take control of building rooftops as well as initiate team fights.

One of the best features of Fuse's Ultimate is that it can highlight enemies when they are inside or near the flames. This makes them easy to shoot down as they will have difficulty spotting you through the visual clutter. Horizon's ultimate piled on top of it makes it a death trap where both characters can spam grenades to score easy kills.

Horizon's ultimate can be used at the beginning as well and Fuse can stick Knuckle Clusters on the enemies to reduce their shield levels. Once the Black Hole lands, Fuse can Aim Down Sight (ADS) and place down the ultimate ability to instantly trap anyone caught in Horizon's ultimate. Such a combo needs proper timing so might be a bit difficult to pull off at all times. But it can give the squad a complete advantage to secure a squad wipe.

2) Crypto

Crypto can be used to accurately track down opponents for Horizon players to take fights. However, the primary combo would be charging up the EMP blast while Horizon uses her ultimate ability. This can easily disorient all players caught inside the blast while trapping enemies near the Black Hole.

Crypto's recent buff makes him quite strong as the character can become invisible while droning with the help of perks. Horizon's ultimate does not deal any damage and is only capable of slowing down or trapping opponents briefly if they are inside the area of effect.

This is where Crypto's ultimate can do wonders as it eats away a percentage of enemy shields and stuns them. During the stun, the enemies lose a lot of their movement speed and can be targeted with the Black Hole ability. This will ensure that the ultimate catches at least one person and provides the squad with a quick kill.

3) Lifeline

Lifeline was recently reworked in Apex Legends and the Support category received massive buffs. This makes the Lifeline pick quite meta for both casual and ranked modes. Having a Lifeline in the team has become crucial as you can revive allies while being able to participate in gunfights. The Lifeline ultimate ability is another lifesaver that can shield the team from all incoming damage and make healing faster.

Lifeline can provide Horizon with a safe space to plan and execute strategies. One can throw down Horizon's tactical ability inside the Lifeline's ultimate and then deploy the Black Hole on the opponent team's location. This is a great way to take control of the map without sacrificing much space while initiating a team fight.

4) Loba

Loba is another Support legend in the game and is unique as she can provide loot for the squad remotely. Her ultimate ability has a generous range that can be used to pool ammo and higher-tier attachments from the vicinity. Horizon can benefit from this as you would need a chunk of grenades to stack when throwing the ultimate ability.

Loba's tactical ability is also quite useful and can be used once Horizon has trapped enemies with her ultimate. This can be used as an initiating ability and can also be crucial when trying to escape from a disadvantageous position. Alternatively, Loba can help Horizon take control of buildings on the map by teleporting to the roof as the others use Horizon's tactical ability to gain height.

5) Ash

Ash is one of the most crafty Assault legends as she can see deathboxes on the whole map and strategize the safest routes into safe zones. Horizon can combine her ultimate ability with Ash's tactical to trap enemies and score quick eliminations. This is a great way to score early eliminations and secure kill points in the first few circles.

Ash can also take advantage of Horizon's tactical ability to gain height and launch her tactical ability to catch enemies off-guard. This is highly viable when fighting opponents who have captured the higher ground. Alternatively, the same can be done to create a one-way portal in the sky that cannot be used by other legends trying to chase your team.
