5 best Legends to duo with Bloodhound in Apex Legends Season 24

Bloodhound in Apex Legends can be a good pick in Season 24 if played correctly. Their playstyles are quite rigid and the character does not have any evasion abilities. The ultimate ability is great for team fights and tracking down enemies. Alternatively, it can be used to retreat as it provides Bloodhound with a speed boost.

5 best Legends you should pair with Bloodhound in Apex Legends

Being one of the first characters to be released with the game's launch, Bloodhound remains one of the most popular Legends in the game. They're perfect for beginners and veterans alike, owing to the simplicity, and yet highly effective nature of their abilities.

Before we dive into the characters that you can pair with them, let us understand their abilities:

• Tracker (Passive Ability): Bloodhound has the power to track clues left behind by enemies. They are highlighted in red and show traces of how long ago they occurred. If there are no enemy players in the region, a White Raven will spawn in front of you. Interacting with it will provide you with a trail pointing toward the enemy team that is closest to you.
• Eye of the Allfather (Tactical Ability): With this ability, they have the power to reveal all footsteps, enemy silhouettes, and traps in a 120-degree cone. It reaches up to 75 meters, providing teams with enough intel on what's in front of them.
• Beast of the Hunt (Ultimate Ability): Bloodhound's senses are enhanced when they pop their ultimate. For 30 seconds, Bloodhound gets a 30% speed boost, and they have black-and-white vision with enemies highlighted in red. Its the perfect tool for engaging into combat and eliminating enemy players one after another. Each elimination that you earn extends the duration of the ability and provides you with an additional scan.

That said, let us look at the five best Legends that can duo with Bloodhound in Apex Legends Season 24:

1) Mad Maggie

Mad Maggie is one of the most aggressive characters in Apex Legends and a fantastic character to duo with Bloodhound in Apex Legends. Her passive ability allows players to run at full speed when equipped with a shotgun on hand. Bloodhound can scan to detect enemies and relay this information to Maggie so she can chase them down. Moreover, her tactical ability can be used to damage opponents through walls and other types of cover.

Mad Maggie can also use her ultimate ability to provide the entire team with a speed boost temporarily. This can be used after Bloodhound's scan detects enemies to initiate a team fight. Although the combo might seem quite basic, it is highly effective in the early rounds as you can collect a few kills with ease to boost your kill points.

2) Ash

Ash currently enjoys a list of new buffs including class-specific ones which allow players to gain movement speed temporarily when cracking enemy shields. The first split seems to have been tailor-made for increasing the aggression in the game and removing the stale Support meta. Ash can also crack an enemy to highlight them for the whole team temporarily.

Bloodhound can combine this with his scan to provide even better information for the team. This can be followed up with more aggression and potentially score a squad wipe. Providing instant information about other opponents can also help Ash place her snare accurately to catch enemies off-guard.

Ash can place her ultimate to help the entire team rotate easily. This is great for Bloodhound as their ability kit does not have any repositioning powers. The whole squad can use these portals to initiate gunfights, escape from disadvantageous scenarios, or even get to the safe zone faster than others.

3) Loba

Loba, in the recent Astral Anomaly mid-season update for Apex Legends Season 23 was buffed significantly. She was the best meta Legend in the past split of the game, if not, one of the strongest characters in the previous build. Loba is a support-class character who generally excels at providing her team with material utility. These reasons by themselves make her one of the best Legends to duo with Bloodhound in Apex Legends.

The latest buffs have made her extremely versatile. Her tactical ability, Burglar's Best Friend, now has two charges, which makes her extremely mobile. This paves the path for unique gameplay, allowing players to contest and pressurize enemies from off-angles without having to worry about an escape plan. The first charge can be used to position tactically, after pairing with Bloodhound's Eye of the Allfather. After strategically dealing with damage, the second charge can be used to quickly get back to Bloodhound and other teammates.

As for her ultimate ability, the Black Market Boutique, players can use it to keep their ammunition and meds topped up at all times. It further provides access to the best-quality loot available in an area. When it comes to Bloodhound, you can constantly charge your ultimate ability by swiping every Ultimate Accelerant in the area using this ability.

4) Octane

Octane is one of the most popular picks in Apex Legends and is slowly taking the meta spot after the Season 24 Split 2 update. The latest Trailblazer and Charged Knock perks for the Skirmisher class have made this character one of the most agile legends in the entire game. The first perk provides the squad with a movement speed boost when sprinting toward an allied Skirmisher. The second provides Octane with a temporary charge of his ultimate whenever scoring a knock or a kill.

Octane can place jump pads around the map almost all the time if involved in fights. However, you need to get knockdowns for your temporary charge to activate. The ability will remain usable for 30 seconds after the knock, so you should use it whenever possible to get to a better location in the middle of the fight.

The same can also be used to help allies get to the battlefield faster. In team fights, Bloodhound can activate the ultimate and gain an additional movement speed boost. This makes it almost impossible for the enemies to keep track of your squad's movement as you run past them and secure some easy eliminations.

Bloodhound's scan is an essential tool that can provide Octane players with the necessary information. You can then choose to act on this info and go in for a fight of retreat back into the safe zone to rake in kills in the final rounds.

5) Wraith

Wraith is another Skirmisher legend who received some buffs in the new mid-season update. Apart from the Charged Knock and Trailblazer class perks, Wraith can now choose to exit her phased state in the tactical ability. This makes it easier to trick enemies, as you do not have to run around the entire duration of the ability to find a spot. Instead, you can simply phase out for a few seconds and get back to the fight and catch your enemies off guard.

Wraith's ultimate ability has also been changed up a bit to provide a quicker speed ramp-up timer. This makes Wraith get the movement speed bonus faster and helps to place the portal further in less time. The portal can be used aggressively or to help out allies in dangerous situations. However, unlike Alter's ultimate, Wraith's portal decays quickly and cannot remain on the map for too long.

Bloodhound's scan can be the perfect initiation tool for team fights and provide Wraith with crucial information. This duo is quite old and still manages to pack a heavy punch when played correctly. Combined with the faster activation time for Wraith's tactical ability, you can even choose to jump onto the battlefield and retreat without serious consequences.
