ALGS Year 4 Split 1 Weapon Stats

The Apex Legends Global Series has always been a showcase not just of player skill but also of weapon efficacy. During the latest tournament, which concluded on May 5, a variety of firearms and explosives were deployed in the digital battlefield. Amidst an arsenal that delivered over 3,000 eliminations, a single type of weaponry stood out, accounting for more than 800 of those kills.

Throughout this high-stakes competition, professionals leveraged an array of tools to outmaneuver and outgun their opponents. The event's statistics reflect the choices pros make in their quest for victory, highlighting which weapons performed best in terms of damage dealt and enemies defeated.

Leading Weapons in ALGS Year 4 First Split Based on Eliminations

During the first split of the fourth year in the Apex Legends Global Series, a clear preference among pro players emerged, with the Havoc standing out due to its high damage-per-second (DPS) and effectiveness for close to mid-range combat.

The Hemlok, while impressive with its performance, came in second place, lagging by a significant margin in terms of the number of opponent players eliminated.

Here's a rundown of the top 15 weapons leading to player eliminations:

Havoc: 810 eliminations
Hemlok: 645 eliminations
Volt: 503 eliminations
Nemesis: 177 eliminations
Prowler: 141 eliminations
Flatline: 119 eliminations
30-30: 103 eliminations
C.A.R: 98 eliminations
Peacekeeper: 90 eliminations
Mozambique: 55 eliminations
Alternator: 51 eliminations
Frag Grenade: 46 eliminations
Arc Star: 45 eliminations
Sentinel: 44 eliminations
Wingman: 42 eliminations

It's particularly surprising to see the Mozambique—typically not a top-tier choice—ranking tenth. The adept usage of the Digital Threat optic by professionals likely contributed to its unexpected standing, despite the optic being reconsidered for balancing in future game updates.

Leading Damage Inflictors in ALGS First Split

In the professional arena of the Apex Legends Global Series, the ability to deal damage can be as strategic as achieving eliminations. It is the art of weakening opponents from a range and disrupting their tactical positioning that sometimes defines a match more than the final kill count.

During the recent ALGS Split, the Hemlok has topped the charts, delivering over half a million in total damage, surpassing the Havoc. One of the drawbacks of the Havoc is its prerequisite wind-up time, which proves cumbersome amid long-distance engagements.

Leading Weapons by Damage Inflicted:

Hemlok: 508,074
Havoc: 327,979
Volt: 200,913
Nemesis: 164,465
30-30: 110,566

These statistics reflect the prominence of energy weapons in dealing substantial damage, with the Havoc, Volt, and Nemesis collectively dealing a remarkable 693,357 damage.

Among the arsenal employed, pro players tend to gravitate towards weaponry that offers versatility across short to mid-range encounters. The keys to victory often lie in an adaptable loadout, tailored to respond to Apex's dynamic variables like ring movements and item distribution.

Additional noteworthy weapons in the damage rankings include but are not limited to the Flatline, Sentinel, and the Prowler. Even ordnance such as Frag Grenades and Arc Stars leave their mark on the battlefield, illustrating the diverse approaches to combat within the league.
