Phillip ‘ImperialHal’ Dosen is one of the oldest players in Apex Legends. He is known for his exceptional leadership skills, ultimately crowing himself as the best in-game leader. Apart from that, Dosen is one of the few players to make a fortune from Apex Legends, as no player holds stats like his. 

But, as we all know, profession is just a little part of one’s life. It does not justify who we are as a person, as it limits itself to our skills. So, apart from being the best at work, it is important to work well with others in your industry. The reason we talk about this is because Dosen firmly accused his fellow Apex Legends pros. His accusations were linked to Twitch viewership as he claimed the duo of using some hack.
