In this article, we’ll drive you through Nickmercs’s new and updated Apex Legends settings that you need to know. So you can tweak your settings accordingly and get even better at the game.

Born in 1990, Nick “NICKMERCS” Kolcheff is a full-time streamer, currently signed for FaZe Clan. He started his competitive esports journey as a professional Gears of War player in 2010. However, it was the Battle Royale genre that set NickMercs apart from the rest.

NICKMERCS primarily started to pop off after he made his debut in Fortnite. He loved and enjoyed the game, and he was really good at it. His energetic persona and staggering gameplay helped him garner a massive fan base within a short time.

But he was not one of them who would stick to one game for the rest of his career. Nick was a risk-taker, and he only did what he enjoyed doing. When CoD Warzone came out, he again switched to this new BR game. Rather than losing his previous fan base, he gained even more from the Warzone community.

After dominating Fortnite and Warzone, it was time for Nick to get a taste of Apex Legends. Even though Apex’s skill ceiling is way higher, Nick managed to reach the top within a brief time. Everyone was initially skeptical about Nick’s potential on Apex, but he again proved them wrong by reaching the top Predator rank and competing at the highest level.
