The YouTuber revealed that the OTs 9 is still the best SMG after nerfs, especially for controller players. You can\u2019t only consider how fast a gun kills its opponents when you\u2019re weighing its place in the meta. TTK (time-to-kill) is a valuable metric, but, with close-range, high-mobility guns in particular, other factors come into play. So, when JGOD tasked himself with determining the optical secondary loadout, he called on a variety of aspects: mobility (movement speed, strafe speed, etc.), iron sights, recoil control, and, of course, damage. Looking at the two most popular submachine guns, the OTs 9 and Cold War MP5, JGOD explained why the OTs is still king of the castle. And this might be surprising to some, since it got nerfed on September 15. JGOD\u2019s best Warzone OTs 9 loadout for controller When the OTs got nerfed most recently, the devs hurt most of its damage, slightly upped its recoil, and buffed its headshot multiplier. After those changes, JGOD\u2019s class emphasizes a mix of mobility and TTK: Muzzle: GRU Suppressor &#8211; Barrel: 8.1\u201d Task Force &#8211; Ammunition: VDV 40 Rnd Fast Mag &#8211; Rear Grip: Serpent Wrap &#8211; Stock: KGB Skeletal Stock &#8211; Unlike the traditional OTs class, this one prioritizes a Serpent Wrap over Tiger Team to increase ADS (aim-down-sight) speed. And, even after the nerfs, he still thinks this gun is the best SMG around. To show this, the Verdansk analyst\u2019s video shows differences in everything from recoil to how much of your screen the gun covers \u2014 but also in-depth statistics. OTs 9 vs MP5: Mobility, damage, recoil As you can see, looking at just the two most statistically dominant SMGs, the CW MP5 actually outclasses the OTs in terms of damage per mag, raw movement speed, and damage at range. But the OTs has some key traits that make it perfect for controller players, who prefer easier recoil control and weirder movement potential. As such, the OTs 9\u2019s untouched strafe speeds, reload time, recoil control, and iron sights are all massive perks. With most of the other elements being fairly even, JGOD solidifies the OTs as the top SMG around for controller players. It\u2019s comfortable to handle, does a lot of damage, and lets you bring out cracked movement \u2014 all explaining why its users average a top-tier 1.49 K\/D.
