As has become standard practice with Warzone, the seasonal updates provide the most scope for meta shifts and game balancing. That proved true on April 27 when the Season 3 update dropped, bringing major changes to both Caldera and the game\u2019s weapon pool. The majority of snipers were weakened considerably and other weapons, like the Black Ops Cold War Vargo 52, were also on the end of nerfs. However, Warzone guru JGOD has now waded into the Vargo 52 discussion, claiming that the nerf is basically nonexistent. In an April 29 YouTube video, he explained that the nerf may actually constitute as a buff because of how it has affected the Black Ops Cold War AR. Referring to the Vargo\u2019s nerf with air quotes, JGOD said: \u201cI say \u2018nerf\u2019 because all they did is modify the recoil pattern which, personally for me, I feel like it\u2019s a little bit easier to control.\u201d Recoil in Warzone tends to be a mix of vertical and horizontal but, when a weapon\u2019s kick sways more towards one than the other, it can actually be easier to control because the aim only has to be pulled in one direction. That, in JGOD\u2019s opinion, is what has happened to the Vargo. JGOD\u2019s best Vargo 52 Warzone build for Season 3 After explaining why the nerf might not be as it seems, JGOD outlined his go-to loadout following the Season 3 update. It\u2019s fairly standard, seeking to improve its range and magazine size whilst also managing recoil.
