Crimsix explains the Modern Warfare meta for professional teams ActivisionDallas Empire pro, Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter, has shed light on the current competitive meta in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Being the winningest professional Call of Duty player in history, Crimsix has a solid knowledge base which fans can tap into. Despite not getting off to the hottest of starts during the Call of Duty League Launch Weekend, the 33-time major champion has given fans an insight into pro team\u2019s meta \u2014 and surprise, surprise\u2026 the MP5 reigns supreme. It\u2019s no secret that there are two weapons that lead the pack in terms of being the most well-rounded within their respective category. For those unaware, the MP5 and M4A1 have largely gone unmatched during the first three months of Modern Warfare. However, unless you paid particularly close attention to CDL matches, how pro teams utilize these to suit the needs of the game mode and map is less clear. The Dallas Empire AR has revealed exactly how team roles match-up against one another in Modern Warfare, with SMGs taking up a considerable slice of the meta-pie. \u201cThis is a four [SMG], one AR game.\u201d Porter explained. \u201cEach team has two main subs, two flex\u2019s but mainly subs (only because of Azhir Cave), and one main AR.\u201d PSA to anyone doing any sort characteristics of roles: This is a 4 sub, 1 AR game. Each team has two main subs, two flex\u2019s but mainly subs(only because of cave), and one main AR. Statistics\/graphics\/fantasy leagues should reflect role + specialist being used. \u2014 FaZe Crimsix (@Crimsix) January 31, 2020 Player roles vary on a game-to-game basis, with weapon choices, game modes, and map layout being the largest factors in determining roles.

Perhaps the reason for such an SMG-heavy meta is due to the fast-paced nature of Modern Warfare\u2019s maps, alongside the sheer volume of close-quarters engagements that players will constantly find themselves in. While Crimsix\u2019s meta will likely run true to respawn game modes, players frequently change their rig on a round-by-round basis when playing Search & Destroy \u2014 with Sniper Rifles often being used to cut-off long-range lines of sight. Nonetheless, taking into account player roles when displaying statistics (specifically in fantasy leagues) would provide a more relative means of expressing a player\u2019s role on a team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
