Game Guide
Apex Legends
Movement-heavy battle royale where tracking beats static flicking — data from 73 professionals.
Overview
Apex pros track at a median in-game sensitivity of 1.3 — the long TTK turns Apex into a tracking game, and tracking picks its own tools. Our Apex sample is deliberately small and honest: 74 tracked professionals, every percentage computed only over players who have that field on record.
Long TTK means long tracking
Apex Legends is Respawn's movement battle royale: slide-canceling wall bounces, legend abilities, and time-to-kill long enough that most fights are continuous tracking, not single flicks. That shape shows in the settings: of the 56 tracked pros with a sensitivity record, the median in-game sens sits at 1.3 — double what a Counter-Strike pro would blink at. Monitor choice skews conspicuously too: 21 of 68 record-holders (31%) play on Sony INZONE panels. The sample is 74 players, so we compute every figure over players with that field on record.
The pro circuit in brief
Apex esports is EA-run through the Apex Legends Global Series: regional online Pro Leagues feeding split playoffs and a year-end Championship. Year 6 (2026) carries a $7M total prize pool across three global LANs — the July Split 1 finals inside the Esports World Cup, Las Vegas in late October, and Sapporo for the Championship in January 2027. Pro matches use a Legend Ban phase between games — strategy shifts weekly; the gear data below does not.

What this data covers
The Apex Legends breakdown above is drawn from ProAiming's live database of professional Apex setups — 74 players tracked. Every player record covers the mouse, DPI, sensitivity and resolution a pro runs, plus the peripherals around them. This is a smaller sample than our FPS pages, and we treat it that way: every figure on this page is computed only over players who have that field on record.
Maybe you don't care about the average sensitivity of the field — you want to know what your favorite Apex stars actually run. Players like ImperialHal, Sweet and Genburten, and organizations like Alliance and TSM, are all covered. Head to the Apex player list to browse every roster, or open an individual detail page for the full setup.
The database is refreshed as new configurations come in. Spot a mistake or an outdated setting? Tell us — we correct it and keep the data as current as the pro scene.
