ALGS divides Apex Legends fans with Nickmercs Pro League invite

Well, there it is. Nicholas 'Nickmercs' Kolcheff is going to be an Apex Legends pro - it's not something we thought we'd ever see, but it's something the popular streamer and FaZe Clan co-owner has been working towards for some time with his Apex Legends team Tripods. Following a string of decent results in the Apex Legends Global Series (ALGS) Challenger Circuit throughout Year 2, Respawn Entertainment has invited the team to compete in Split 1 of the ALGS Pro League next year.

Competing at the top isn't going to be easy, but Nickmercs and his teammates - 'Lewda' and 'Deeds' - have been hard at work putting in the hours getting some fairly decent Top 20 results in the numerous qualifying tournaments held in the build up to next years' Pro League. And, as we now know, it's all paid off.

Sharing the invitation with the world, Nickmercs had his own graphic made up using the official wording of the invite and tweeted it with the following comments: "Tripods in the league now b*tch [Flame Emoji] They said it would never happen! Shouts go out to them".
