Sparrow is of course, the number one choice when it comes to choosing one of the best Legends in the latest Apex Legends update. He is the newest addition to the Recon-class roster, and his kit is definitely unique. Providing players with extreme versatility, great movement potential, and an ability that can leave enemies slowed and stunned, Sparrow will absolutely dominate the new season.

His abilities are extremely powerful, and if you're a movement nerd, you will definitely enjoy the mobility he gets access to via his passive ability. Furthermore, his tactical ability allows him to scan enemies from a safe distance, providing you control over how you approach any engagements.

2) Wattson

We are pretty sure that the community never expected Wattson to become a meta-tier Legend in the game. The latest Split 2 update for the title has provided the Legend with numerous buffs, all of which make her one of the most powerful and useful characters in the game. Wattson has received numerous changes to her passive, tactical, and ultimate abilities. Furthermore, her Legend Upgrades have also been changed, and all of these combined make her a devastating foe on the field.

We urge players to pick up this Legend and spend some time learning the ins and outs of her entire kit. Currently, Wattson will be the best Controller Legend that you can pick in the game. Without her, chances of you getting run down by Assault and Skirmisher Legends are very high.

3) Vantage

Alongside Wattson, Vantage has also been buffed quite tremendously. All aspects of her base kit have been altered, and as of now, she is probably the best Recon Legend in the game. Previously, Vantage struggled to provide any utility in contrast to other Legends in her class, like Bloodhound, Seer, and Crypto. However, the latest changes definitely make her not only one of the best Recon Legends, but rather, one of the most powerful characters in the entire Legend tier list.

Alter has been a meta pick in Season 24, and things are no different in the newest season of Apex Legends. The recent Alter rework has made her one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful, Skirmisher Legends in the game.

Her ability to control the tempo of gunfights and her versatility when it comes to choosing how she faces enemies make her a fantastic addition to any team. As an Alter player, your creativity can push you to break the barriers in Apex Legends and bend them to your will.

While the Legend has been nerfed with the latest Apex Legends patch, she still remains a stellar Skirmisher pick in the game's current meta. We believe she still possess the ability to turn the tides of team fights in the game.

Ash, though nerfed in the latest season, remains one of the best Legends in Apex Legends Season 25. The versatility that you have in your hands as Ash is simply unparalleled. Her abilities feel cohesive. Her passive provides you with crucial intel and a fantastic short-range mobility tool.

Her tactical ability provides you with a lot of utility. It has the power to chain and stop enemies in their tracks. If you choose the right upgrade, you can literally anchor multiple enemies at a given position. This can be used aggressively to secure easy team eliminations or defensively to quickly run and reposition.

Last but not least, her ultimate ability is a fantastic tool that can help you cover a distance of 150 meters or more. It opens up different strategic avenues, all of which rest upon you to explore.
