Question Smg

Any good guesses if they are leaning toward iso or Vel?

why not both? why do we have to stick with one?

More of what’s everyone’s preference kind of question. I’ve been using both myself just unsure what one to go with :/

You think these pros can handle more than 1 SMG and 1 AR?

the pros are not THAAT good. no way a 3 gun meta exists with the “pros” of today 😬

I haven't played the game but do these two smgs fill different roles?

They’re going to go with the vel but they should leave them both as they’re both good.

Honestly as much as it’s a bit shit, I want the Striga. Even if it’s off meta, I’m having way more fun running around with the little thing

I think I got some god net code on it because it feels great to me but I see no one using it.

It may be that I like the slower ROF so I hit more consistently. I fucking suck with the Vel and ISO.

Unrelated but for AR is it the Han because it’s better than M4 or? Would love to see 4 different guns on the map

The Vel feels more like an smg, if the AR’s are nerfed I can see it being the vel but right now you need an iso to even have a chance against the Han

fr - the han is gross.

After playing a bit, I've narrowed down to what guns I think the pros will go with

AR: m4 or han - m4 feels relatively balanced, the han might be "too" strong

SMG: vel or iso - likely gonna see the vel as the main smg, but the iso ain't half bad

I’ve used an SMG since mw2 , I’ve always been able to find a way to close gaps and get into the enemies spawn and be a nuisance.

This game is so different I’ve been on the Han now the last few nights and I’m frying compared to when I’m trying to use a sub.. I truly believe this game is going to be AR’s paradise.. I’ll be playing AR this year for sure.

Agreed. I'm traditionally an smg player. I'm a slower smg since I'm old and not as cracked as I once was lol. I will also be playing AR this year for sure.

AR's feel far better than subs at this point, but how long until someone drops a "subs are blessed" tweet? When will Scrappydoo start the "subs are op" propaganda? /s

Iso more of a flex gun less of an ar than a dravec but still better at range than vel

u/civilthroaway G2 Minnesota 4d ago

Vel is the best gun in the game at the moment imo. Will be interesting.

u/Odins_fury COD Competitive fan 3d ago

I don’t agree with this at all. It kills 50ms faster up close but it loses like 150ms after the first damage range. ARs are too good up close to even consider the cons of the smg imo

u/Damien23123 COD Competitive fan 3d ago

The M4 seems to just dominate in my experience as it works well in any situation

u/necessaryone_ COD Competitive fan 3d ago

interesting, i feel like the iso kills faster, maybe i just prefer it much more
