Players are continuing to adjust to Warzone\u2019s Season 3 update, which dropped on April 27 and constituted the biggest meta shake up we\u2019ve seen since the Vanguard integration way back in December. Among other changes, it significantly weakened the majority of sniper rifles, including the dominant Kar98k and Swiss K31. Both had their one-hit abilities essentially removed, meaning players have been pushed to slower, more cumbersome snipers that evaded major changes. With many players searching for a new long-range meta sniper, Warzone expert TrueGameData has weighed in on the debate and believes there is a clear winner. In his May 7 YouTube video, the Warzone data expert outlined Black Ops Cold War\u2019s ZRG 20mm as the clear \u2018King\u2019 of Warzone snipers. He highlighted the weapon\u2019s monumental damage but also some features that set it apart from Vanguard competitors. \u201cThe ZRG is perfectly steady when you\u2019re flying, perfectly steady when you\u2019re strafing,\u201d he explained. \u201cIt has the best bullet velocity, it has a very fast fire rate, so you can finish your downs really quickly. There\u2019s virtually no argument to use any of the other one-shot-kill snipers.\u201d TrueGameData\u2019s best ZRG 20mm loadout in Warzone Season 3 He also outlined his go-to build of the Cold War sniper, which is detailed below.

Its medium range capabilities mean it is ideal for those gunfights where a sniper is unsuitable, and will give players the best chance of bringing home wins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TrueGameData explains why ZRG is Warzone\u2019s \u201cKing\u201d sniper after Kar98k nerfs ActivisionWarzone expert TrueGameData has outlined why the ZRG 20mm is the new \u2018King\u2019 sniper in Season 3, as the once-meta Kar98k and Swiss K31 continue to plummet in popularity.
