The Grau in Warzone was, for the battle royale\u2019s first few months, an obvious choice for anyone who wanted to use an AR. It\u2019s minimal recoil and incredible damage made it dominant at nearly all ranges, with many calling for a nerf. These wishes were granted on June 29, when the Grau\u2019s damage and recoil stability were both nerfed. Since then, the Warzone meta has shifted towards the Kilo 141 and Bruen Mk9, but Vikkstar believes the Grau still trumps both of them. In a July 18 YouTube video entitled \u2018I was wrong about the Bruen &#038; Kilo in Warzone\u2019, Vikkstar explains that he puts some of his recent struggles in Warzone competitions down to trying to use the Kilo\/Bruen combination. \u201cI\u2019m always open to constructive criticism,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m always happy to admit when I\u2019m wrong, and after trying out switching back to the Grau yesterday, I think I might have been wrong\u2026 The Grau just suits my play-style a little better.\u201d He went on to explain that the gun\u2019s lack of recoil and excellent iron sights are particular positives. Especially when compared to the Kilo and Bruen, which both require optics for him to use effectively, it means one attachment slot is freed up. Not only does this allow an extra attachment for players using the Grau but, as Vikkstar explains, enables faster and easier aiming too.

It\u2019s at that close range, snapping from target to target, that I\u2019m able to do so easily with the Grau \u2013 to the point where for me, I think it is actually the best gun to be using.\u201d While the meta has certainly shifted, Vikk is returning to his old combination of the MP5 and Grau 5.56. Whether others will follow suit remains to be seen, but the discussion surrounding Warzone\u2019s best gun is surely what Infinity Ward were hoping for when they nerfed the Grau.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vikkstar explains why the Grau is still Warzone\u2019s best gun Activision\/Twitter: Vikkstar123Sidemen YouTuber Vikram \u2018Vikkstar\u2019 Barn has explained why he still considers the Grau 5.56 to be the best gun in Call of Duty: Warzone \u2013 despite the modest nerf it received in Modern Warfare Season 4.
