Warzone\u2019s meta has continually shifted over the last months with different SMGs and LMGs taking over, before giving way to some of Black Ops Cold War\u2019s assault rifles. Currently, the KAR98 is the top dog, and has been for quite some time, but you can hardly run around Verdansk and Rebirth Island with just a sniper rifle. You need something that can back it up. For some players, the answer in the past has been the EM2. The powerful assault rifle was loved by some Warzone pros prior to Season 6, and its popularity has only increased since the update hit the servers. According to stats from WZRanked, the EM2 had previously been sat outside of the top 10 for quite some time, but in the second half of October, it\u2019s risen up the ranks \u2013 jumping all the way up to fifth overall. Why is that, you ask? Well, as both Swagg and TrueGameData have highlighted, it\u2019s because of the lack of idle sway when you attach the Axial Arms 3x optic. Aim down sight and you\u2019re pretty much locked on to your target, your shots will hardly move. Swagg goes as far as to call it a \u201cglitched attachment,\u201d but we can\u2019t anything for certain. The sight only makes up one component of the weapon\u2019s current meta loadout, however, which has a 45% pick rate as per WZRanked. The next closest EM2 class clocks with in a pick rate under 20%, so the class of choice stands out above the rest.

It is only a few percentage points behind the AK-47. If it manages to topple the iconic Call of Duty weapon, it would become Warzone\u2019s most popular assault rifle but it\u2019s got a long way to go before it joins the OTS 9, Swiss K31, and KAR98 in the top three.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone EM2 loadout is now meta as \u201cglitched\u201d optic reduces recoil ActivisionThe EM2 assault rifle is quickly meta in Warzone as players have started to rock one loadout in particular thanks to a supposedly \u201cglitched\u201d optic attachment.
