Bzbblegum’s Opinion on Alter

Bzbblegum considers Alter's abilities to be sitting in the perfect middle ground in the game. Alter's tactical ability Void Passage is what he loves the most as it’s good to catch enemies off-guard by breaching a building or space from behind. He said Alter’s passive ability Gift from the Rift is good but could be improved upon by allowing her to loot two things at once from the death box.

When it comes to Alter’s ultimate ability Void Nexus, Bzbblegum asserted the animation time to activate the portal back to the Nexus could be reduced in the coming updates. However, as knocked teammates can use the translocator too, it makes Alter an excellent pick for Ranked.

When inquired about which map Alter is the most viable in, he suggested World's Edge as there are many buildings to allow for outplays with her kit.

Bzbblegum’s plans and views on competitive Apex

Bzbblegum made it clear that he isn't interested in playing in the competitive scene of Apex Legends. He reasons that not many tournaments for the game could provide a sustainable living unless you're signed to a major organization. The main ALGS tournament is hard to qualify for, and you only get paid decently when you reach the Top 10. So, he doesn't follow ALGS or support any specific pro teams.

However, his attention and time are mainly focused on streaming and making content which he absolutely loves doing. He intends to grow his Twitch and YouTube channel while growing as a player.
