Apex Legends Tier List (September 2026): Axle, Loba, and Seer Headline the S Tier After the Midseason Patch
Fresh off the Marked Midseason patch, here’s how all 24 legends rank for Season 30 Split 2. These placements weigh both competitive viability and pick rate among top-100 Apex Predators, so you’re getting a meta snapshot, not just a list of who’s fun to play.
S Tier
Axle still tops the meta with a 25.2% pick rate and a 49% win rate across more than 103,000 matches among top-100 Predators, even after the Marked Midseason nerfs trimmed her Ultimate HP and stun duration. Her Kickstart drone still lets her rotate, disengage, and third-party fights faster than almost anyone else in the cast \xe2\x80\x94 the nerfs made her punishable, not weak.
Loba is the second most-picked legend at 22.8% with a 50.3% win rate. Her Black Market Boutique gives squads a loot-rotation advantage no other support legend matches, and her tactical’s range makes disengaging from bad fights trivial.
Seer benefits directly from this patch \xe2\x80\x94 losing the turn-slow penalty on his tactical makes his info-denial kit far less punishing to use aggressively, and his ultimate remains one of the best area-denial tools in the game for shutting down third parties.
Pathfinder and Alter round out S tier. Pathfinder’s grapple mobility keeps him a fixture in ranked and pro play alike, while Alter’s portal opens rotations and third-party angles that no other legend can replicate.
A Tier
Revenant, Mad Maggie, Bangalore, Gibraltar, Vantage, Octane, Horizon, Sparrow, Valkyrie, and Crypto all sit in A tier \xe2\x80\x94 every one of them is a strong pick capable of carrying a squad, but none dominates the pick-rate charts the way the S-tier five do.
B Tier and Below
Wattson, Conduit, Rampart, Caustic, Wraith, Newcastle, Bloodhound, and Fuse land in B tier; several of them (Conduit, Fuse, Bloodhound) got direct buffs this patch and are worth watching as the split progresses. Catalyst, Mirage, and Lifeline sit in C tier, while Ash and Ballistic remain the least-picked legends in the current meta at D tier.
Gearing Up for Split 2
Whichever legend you land on, Split 2’s battle pass and event cosmetics all run on Apex Coins \xe2\x80\x94 a Steam Wallet Code is the fastest way to top up if you’re playing on PC.
