There\u2019s no doubting that Crimsix knows a thing or two about Call of Duty. As the most winningest player to ever touch the franchise, it\u2019s fair to say that the two-time world champion is well-acquainted with the game\u2019s meta. Although, in a recent Tweet, Crimsix has attempted to settle a debate that will be one for the ages\u2026 M4A1 versus Grau. Which one takes the biscuit? Well according to Crimsix, there\u2019s only one clear winner. While the M4A1 has been balanced to the high-heavens, the Grau still remains relatively overpowered \u2014 there\u2019s a reason it\u2019s most people\u2019s go-to weapon in their Custom Loadouts! In a bid to judge whether the Season 2 AR needs to be nerfed, Crim decided to compare Call of Duty League caster and Warzone aficionado, Clint \u2018Maven\u2019 Evans, with Seattle Surge hotshot, Sam \u2018Octane\u2019 Larew. By eyeballing the pair, Porter arrived at the conclusion that they\u2019re both about equal. \u201cResult: Toss up. Both can shoot it equally as well\u2026This gun is skill-less and doesn\u2019t feel rewarding at all.\u201d How to judge whether something should be nerfed or not.@Maven w\/ Grau vs. @OctaneSam w\/ GrauResult: Toss up. Both can shoot it equally as well. This gun is skillless and doesn\u2019t feel rewarding at all. \u2014 FaZe Crimsix (@Crimsix) June 7, 2020 While Maven boasts an extensive Warzone portfolio, there are few (if any) who can compete with Octane\u2019s pinpoint accuracy. This seems to provide Crimsix all the proof he needs that the Grau should be nerfed. Surge\u2019s Main AR agreed with Crim\u2019s point, while also jesting that Maven would have his number 90% of the time if the pair were to lock horns. The big advantage of the Grau in comparison to its M4 counterpart is that players can get away with rocking the iron sight \u2014 opening up an extra attachment slot to bolster the weapon\u2019s stats. But given how little there is statistically between the two assault rifles (detailed in our extensive comparison), it remains unlikely that Infinity Ward will be looking to nerf the Grau anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crimsix explains why Warzone\u2019s Grau needs to be nerfed ActivisionCall of Duty veteran Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has taken sides on the ongoing M4A1 vs Grau debate \u2014 and there\u2019s a clear winner, with the Grau needing a nerf according to the Dallas Empire pro.
