The former Counter-Strike professional Shroud has shown once again how good he really is in Apex Legends. The Twitch star single-handedly took down an entire squad – with the help of a door.
The well-known streamer Shroud eliminated an enemy squad by himself in a match, using a door. He didn’t even take advantage of the trick of Legend Wraith, but simply played skillfully.
Shroud shows how to eliminate a squad with a door
This is how Shroud did it: While his teammates were still gearing up in the bunker, Shroud noticed incoming enemies. To allow his two partners to loot further, he faced the three enemies alone, armed with an R-99 and an EVA-8.
The enemy squad quickly realized he was alone and decided to attack him full on. Shroud retreated only a short distance into the bunker to shoot from the cover of a door frame.
He quickly took down one enemy before the others became more aggressive. Shroud then utilized the door, which he closed and blocked with his own body to provide himself cover.
By quickly opening, firing, and closing the doors, he finally took out the entire squad.
Why did this work? Doors in Apex Legends always open in the direction you’re looking. If an enemy player is standing in that direction or an object like a death box is blocking the door, it cannot be opened normally.
This technique has also been used by another player, who blocked two doors at the same position as Shroud with Caustic’s gas barrels and eliminated an entire team with gas.
Many players do not know or forget that doors can be kicked in with a melee attack. While it takes some time, it certainly grants access. Since the enemy squad apparently didn’t know this, Shroud was able to take them all out.
Shroud has also shown in other games like PUBG why he is considered a “shooter god”. Whether the other team would have had a chance is questionable.
However, the kill world record in Apex Legends was recently broken by another unknown streamer.
Are you having fun in Apex Legends? Then it is likely that you owe it to Shroud:
