    I think the range should be buffed so it could still be used mid range, and kill reward nerfed. That would give us a good smg alternative.

      I was destroying people with sg/aug since 2016, before the nerfs and it was 2/3 matches shit talk from enemies, while my teammates were confused as why am i griefing, until they saw how op they were... SG had better accuracy than AK, higher fire rate, scope and first 21 bullets go in one direction 😄So many times i got the kill because i start prefiring when i know where the enemy is, after my 10 bullets enemy thinks i lost the spray and peeks, only to get rekt. Fun times 🥲

      sawed-off is only viable if you can land first shot every time and can be use for rush . so if you are quick and accurate , sawed-off is the best choice for forced buy rush

  • @kolja783
    @kolja783 Рік тому +1

    I'm not even joking when I say this, but I think the sawed off is the best shotgun... The sawed off is definitely the closest range of the bunch but it will consistently kill no matter where you shoot and even if you run and jump with it. Every other shotgun you almost NEED to headshot unless you're closer range than the sawed off bodyshot kill threshold and still at distances of like 20ft headshots constantly pull 80-99dmg shots. If it doesn't kill you're as good as dead, and I respect the consistency of the sawed off to one-shot if all I have to do is close the gap a bit with utility.

      @@ferrary22 Fair point, but:
      1. the sawed off is more expensive in the first place.
      2. You are more likely to win a round off a tec nine buy, or get a plant off of it, and as soon as you get the plant the kill reward is basically irrellevant.
      3. In team play the Tec9 is incredebly strong because if you have multiple of them you can rush very easily with lots of firepower. It can be used while running and spraying, but it can fire accurately at range as well.
      No ShotGun can do any of this currently.
