People also keep forgetting that after it came out of the care package, it retained the bullet passthrough. You can still shred through an entire squad with this thing when they are hunkered down.
Yeah. It's stupid how little energy ammo exists. I find it wierd. Like nothing has changed. The havoc is still at the top, so why is noone running it? Early game is a tad more difficult with it. But the moment it gets a mag. It's the exact same as last season.
The L Star doesn't benefit from the new reverse hipfire spread as much as the other LMG's. Having to pause each time before the gun overheats means you're wasting potential DPS for "unlimited ammo," which, more often than not, is useless. The DPS is also unpredictable as well since it now depends on how long you pause for each burst.
It’s good but less ammo for energy weapons means you’re going to run out of ammo fast with this thing unless you have a loba to keep you strapped up with ammo you’re basically throwing
The other LMGs all have a purpose. Spitfire is low dps but gigantic light ammo mag with decent range accuracy. Devo is just the king of course. Rampage is the best for long range and can burst with thermites. I used to like the LStar as more of an SMG for a while, but it's more of a controller player weapon these days, imo.
Havoc is really strong right now and with them nerfing energy ammo drops I find my self using havoc / rampage or havoc / mastiff before I pick up Lstar even while playing as or with a loba
Soooo, why l star cant use a shield cell to gain a bit of additional ammo? Would be logical for it to do that. Especially considering energy ammo amount nerf.
since i noticed the reverse hipfire on the rampage i tried with the termite and its amazing... still akimbos do so much dmg i got kills faster with that ....
not gonna lie i thought the l star was good in s21. its even better now but noone uses it, while energy ammo is hard to come by i still pick up the l star when i can. The L star is such an underrated weapon i find it funny how people dont know why i like using it.
Does it need explanation? It needs fire and heath control, you do that, nobody can be safe for you. If you overheath, pump with akimbo mozam until cooldown, then your still ready to smash them heads.
It’s not hypocritical because Pressing A and D is a manual input that helps in stabilisation of recoil where as aim assist is automatic aim correction and adjustment. If I remember correctly, automated inputs are not the same as manual inputs. And please pressing A and D is the same as controller moving right or left with the left analog stick which has nothing to do with aim assist so please use your head before typing.
@@nuruhu5122 No, it's completely hypocritical. It's just another feature that controller players can't take advantage of, yet you don’t see them complaining about it. I have no problem with aim assist being nerfed, but I'm tired of mnk players whining when they lose fights, blaming it on aim assist. Meanwhile, they have plenty of other advantages for aiming and movement, and controller players don't complain when facing the same controller players.
The spitfire has always been crazy, and overall the LMGs in Respawn’s game(s) are nutty! Your Rampage skin is still my favorite. Lucky to be one of the many to use it.
@@jencycarranza4957 yes, but aim assist is pretty good on roller, just make sure you have the advanced settings enabled. You should be able to watch a video on it
its only worth using on rampart tbh. on any other legend you have to tap the trigger too often to prevent the overheat and you'd just be better off using a normal gun. with rampart though it really is basically just spam shooting forever so it is worth it on her.
Hey @the gaming merchant can you please please please do a yt short where you timed the catalyst finishers? Please I wanna know if her legendary finisher is faster than her regular one before I craft it and I can’t time it myself without crafting it and I don’t wanna waist materials on something I’m not gonna use
@@jencycarranza4957 it does make a difference if one is faster plus i wanted to know the exact time so i could know if doing the finisher is faster than popping a batt also both of cats finishers make you stand still so neither of them make it hard or harder to hit her and just me personally the time matters to me lol
@@Random_dancing i think fully finishing her by bullets, then shield swapping is faster and less riskier than doing a finisher and smarter than popping a batt. But to each his own. Don’t think you’re making the smartest calls. But to each his own.
Can someone explain to me what scanned the enemies just then at 5:00? I just returned to Apex on the tail end of S21, what scans enemies without there being a recon legend?
Merchant YOU'RE GIVING UP THE SECRETS DUDE! Respawn's gonna see this and immediate nerf and patch it. I'm joking, but L-Star been my favourite gun since Season 2, and this version is it's best.
I really find it hard to watch u TGM, ur looting is horrible ngl... it ruins ur entire gameplay and u don't even realize it... u think looting is gonna waste ur time from getting in the action... but because u do it horribly u end up needing ammo... attachments.. having no good bag and yet is filled with garbage.. u always spam ammo of all types.. Later u start craving a battery.. ending up losing for silly reasons... and wasting waaaaay more time than u think u saved by looting quicker... Please organize ur inventory... know what u need and what u missing all the time.. so when u loot.. u know what u want and pick only wt u want fast.. It's simple.. u know u need: • 4 syringes • 2 med kits • 8-12 cells • 4 or more batteries • 1 grenade or such at least And the rest is ammo.. Balance it out with the level of backpack u have.. and you'll be good... Play a full day focused on getting ur inventory right.. perfect.. and you'll get used to it... u will live longer in matches and actually spend LESS time looting and actually getting MORE kills because you're MORE kitted and ready Believe it or not so many times I stop watching or don't come at all... knowing from the beginning if u just picked that optic... or that batt.. ur content would be much better.. I care about u.. this is serious
I hate when youtubers ruin video games. USE THIS! this is why the game is dying. players lack creativity and want other peoples loadouts. leave the lstar alone its been good. it didn't need a hop up.
People also keep forgetting that after it came out of the care package, it retained the bullet passthrough. You can still shred through an entire squad with this thing when they are hunkered down.
Passthrough?
@@StacheBoi it goes through enemies for collateral like a Kraber or Sentinel
But energy ammo is as rare as gold now
Replicators arent THAT rare
@@Synic08 Relying on replicators isnt really good when you’re out of ammo since people trend to fight where there’s one bc of rez
Why was I hearing random piano keys playing when I watched this?
Might be some removed copyright music, but the algorithm doing it is probably missing some random bits.
@@CameronT93 Its something happening on stream when he locks in thats it
I love it but energy ammo is hard to come by
Ppl aren’t using energy weapons because due to the lowered energy ammo spawn rate this season.
Also, What’s that little jingle that keeps playing?
Probs his daughter playing the piano

why are you exposing my secret weapon like this
isn't it
Don't tell them Merch
Literally 😂 this gun is broken with a mag on it
THIS I’ve been using the l-star ever since arenas became a thing lol
@zenith5048 speaking for the the ones who don't know. I mean iykyk.
Right
I know right!?!
This Fuse is refusing to leave me alone))
Why does the legend with the highest DPS weapon in the game (sheila) also have the only ability that increases gun damage? 🤯
Actually crazy how many are just going to spitfire for the new hop up but not touching the l star. Havoc is still being picked up too

Lstar is always under rated I love it
Because unless you have a Loba, the energy ammo is scarce, especially on the district map

I think the issue is ammo. I’ve noticed people have basically dropped the volt and nemesis too, because it’s so hard to find ammo now
I love running rampart with a l star and hemlock
Peak gold?
@@enjimin3790 haha no silver 2
Not even all these buffs will get us on rampart and LMGs
Dont give away our secrets.
Soooo, why l star cant use a shield cell to gain a bit of additional ammo? Would be logical for it to do that. Especially considering energy ammo amount nerf.
This might the the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard
I like still how I was probably on of few that saw true potential in lstar 10 seasons ago. So we got what we got
Damn it Merchant if I now need to complete for an Lstar! No one cared, it was a nice secret.
uh yaaas queen
nah energy ammo hard to get and keep if you wanna spam
since i noticed the reverse hipfire on the rampage i tried with the termite and its amazing... still akimbos do so much dmg i got kills faster with that ....
I used it a little but I rather take something else because I go trough too much energy ammo when using it
not gonna lie i thought the l star was good in s21. its even better now but noone uses it, while energy ammo is hard to come by i still pick up the l star when i can. The L star is such an underrated weapon i find it funny how people dont know why i like using it.
I use L-star as my main weapon most matches since Arenas launched 😂

15:48 they were definitely cheating
Wake up. The L-star has always been good after car package
Is there a piano playing in the background?
Spends years complaining about aim assist and controllers…then goes on talking about spamming A and D to negate recoil. Not hypocritical one bit.

i been using the volt but it is truly impossible to find energy ammo
L star mozam goes hard
Nooooo my go to weapon has been exposed
Been running the L star as my second gun for three seasons meow since me being a rampart main
The red lasers hurt my eyes when I shoot them I hate being the one using it in gun run cause I know I’m gonna be on it for a while
Also, the new energy ammo economy doesn't help
Everything changes once the bot start moving
The spitfire has always been crazy, and overall the LMGs in Respawn’s game(s) are nutty!
Your Rampage skin is still my favorite. Lucky to be one of the many to use it.
Good if you can find energy ammi
Dude my lobbies are full of
L-stars
This the first thing I tried
Surprised not more people talk about the fast tap of A&D to remove recoil
Does it only work for pc?
@@jencycarranza4957no
@@jencycarranza4957 yes, but aim assist is pretty good on roller, just make sure you have the advanced settings enabled. You should be able to watch a video on it
I tell my friends everyday that Fuse ruins everything
Idk Lstar bullets seems likes to missed most of the time
My lodout with season has been rampage or lstar eva 8
I love the L star.❤❤
the piano notes are fing annoying. its like a fire alarm battery low sound
Add badges back to revival
Idk if it's known but the L-star shoots one bullet more with the purle mag that the gold one before overheating
That’s literally the point of the mag???
What are your pc specs merchant?
It’s because of the energy weapon nerf
I was using the lstar but you told everyone it was supposed to be a secret 😢
Now try using the L-Star on controller. That thing is unusable!
thas is why i use lovA 🤣😂🤣
Spitfire is op 😂😂
its only worth using on rampart tbh. on any other legend you have to tap the trigger too often to prevent the overheat and you'd just be better off using a normal gun. with rampart though it really is basically just spam shooting forever so it is worth it on her.
Why do you have your damage numbers turned off? Its so irritating XD
i didn't like it in this season because the firing speed is slow.
I have been using it and it’s good
Is your wife playing piano in the background???
I knew it felt way better to use
Always used it cus of heating feature, but now it feels like it lacks dps and loses?
The best apex streamer! 😊

It's part of that game mode. When you kill someone on a team the rest of their team is scanned.
