Some competitiveplayers quickly dubbed her a “trash” legenddue to her ineffectiveness in the late game. Despite the initial hype,her pick ratehas settled into the middle of the pack in Season 15. Though, plenty of players are still finding success.

Apex Legends players uncover Vantage tactic to eliminate players insanely fast
Well, one player, Redditor CaptainBlondiee, looked into it and found out what was causing the rapid eliminations from the deadeye sniper.
Essentially, players can stack up multiple shots of her Sniper’s Mark Ultimate, which can then be used quickly after each other. It takes 40 seconds to charge an additional shot, but once its been acquired, it can be fired within a split second of the initial shot.
This, as the Redditor shows, can be done while hipfiring and ADS’ing. The latter appears to be more accurate, with them being able to pull off the devastating kill that had baffled players initially, given the two shots combined for well over 200 damage.
Some players called it an “incredibly lucky” tactic that is akin to button mashing, suggesting that Respawn should address it. “Died to this about an hour ago. Good to know the answer, even better if it’s fixed,”saidone.
