Bloodhound Ult Push

The Bloodhound Ult Push is a strategic maneuver in Apex Legends involving the use of Bloodhound's ultimate ability, Beast of the Hunt, to gain a tactical advantage over opponents during engagements. This approach leverages Bloodhound's heightened senses and increased speed to overwhelm enemy teams.

Understanding Beast of the Hunt

Bloodhound's ultimate ability, Beast of the Hunt, significantly enhances their combat capabilities, providing a temporary boost that can turn the tide of battle in favor of their squad. When activated, this ability grants Bloodhound:

  • Increased Speed: Bloodhound moves faster, allowing for rapid repositioning and the ability to close gaps between them and their enemies.
  • Enhanced Vision: Enemies are highlighted in red, making them easier to spot even in dense environments or when they are attempting to hide.
  • Extended Duration with Knockdowns: The duration of the ultimate is extended with each enemy knocked down, allowing sustained pressure on enemy teams.

Executing a Bloodhound Ult Push

To effectively execute a Bloodhound Ult Push, players should consider the following strategies:

  1. Coordinate with Teammates: Communication is crucial. Inform your teammates when you are about to activate Beast of the Hunt so they can support the push.
  2. Identify Vulnerable Targets: Use enhanced vision to prioritize targets, focusing on isolated or weakened enemies to quickly gain an advantage.
  3. Utilize Speed to Flank: Take advantage of the increased speed to flank enemies, catching them off-guard and creating opportunities for your team to capitalize on.

Benefits of the Bloodhound Ult Push

Utilizing the Bloodhound Ult Push provides several benefits:

  • Surprise and Overwhelm: The sudden activation of Beast of the Hunt can catch enemy teams off guard, leading to disarray and making it easier to secure eliminations.
  • Increased Survivability: The speed boost allows Bloodhound to dodge incoming fire more effectively, reducing the risk of taking damage.
  • Extended Engagements: The ability to extend the ultimate's duration with each knockdown encourages aggressive play, maintaining pressure on enemies and potentially leading to a squad wipe.
