The world record for the most kills in a match of Apex Legends has been broken. The streamer MrSimpleOG surpassed the old record of prodigy Dizzy in a match without a pre-made team.
With 34 kills and over 6000 points of damage inflicted, MrSimpleOG now holds the world record for the most kills in a round of Apex Legends. This means he eliminated more than half of all players in the match, as only 60 players are participating.
He thus surpassed the old record of streamer and Apex prodigy Dizzy after just under a week – by only one kill. Dizzy, who participated and won in tournaments in Apex Legends with Twitch star Ninja, had achieved 33 kills on February 11.
How did MrSimpleOG set the new record?
This is how MrSimpleOG started: MrSimpleOG played alone with two randomly assigned players (“Randoms”). He played the popular healer Lifeline, while his teammates chose the Legends Pathfinder and Wraith.
He landed with his team in the south of Skull Town, a popular looting spot. Here, there are many houses, quite good items, and a lot to find.
Accordingly, many players land here and at the beginning, large fights are usually predetermined. MrSimpleOG found a Peacekeeper shotgun – that weapon which the Twitch star Dr DisRespect so despises right at the start.
This is how MrSimpleOG played: After the skirmishes in Skull Town, MrSimpleOG emerges from the battle with twelve kills. That means he has already taken down four full squads by himself. However, he and his remaining partner lost their third man, Pathfinder.
With his living teammate, he communicated actively via pings and voice chat on the way to the new record. He stayed with the remaining Wraith until the end.
Notable in his gameplay is that MrSimpleOG plays very aggressively. He seeks the fight and actively looks for opponents to eliminate. This active gameplay is generally more promising in Apex Legends than “camping” in many other BR shooters.
Even among the last remaining teams, he looks for opponents instead of hiding, being driven by his urge for a new personal kill record.
You can watch the entire round of about 23 minutes in the video.
Who is MrSimpleOG? The streamer is still relatively unknown. According to SullyGnome, a website with Twitch statistics, MrSimpleOG had a viewer record of twelve viewers simultaneously so far.
After his new world record in Apex Legends, that should change now. The streamer Dizzy also saw a massive increase in viewers due to his record. His viewers increased from about 1,000 – 3,000 initially to 18,000 and sometimes even over 30,000 viewers.
If you want to watch him yourself, you can find him here as MrSimpleOG on Twitch.
You see, it also works solo. Get started, maybe you’ll set the next record! For more news about Apex Legends, visit us also on Facebook.
