The Marshal pistol is coming to Verdansk, which will let players run Ghost while dual-wielding\u2026 Akimbo Dragon\u2019s Breath shotguns. The \u201cdoof doof\u201d era was terrifying. If your team jumped into a building and heard the ominous double-pump, you knew fiery death was around the corner. But at least you could check UAV or a Heartbeat Sensor to see what was waiting for you. In Season 5, Warzone players will enjoy no such luxury. Those who decide to equip the Marshal pistol will be able to run Ghost while using dual fire shotguns as their secondary weapon. With details of the gun emerging, players are a mix of concerned and intrigued. A pistol that debuted in 2015\u2019s Black Ops 3, the Marshal is capable of one-shot kills at close range. Given the importance of Ghost and mobility in Warzone, news of its arrival is causing serious speculation. How do we know the Marshal will have Dragon\u2019s Breath rounds and the capacity to be dual-wielded? Because there\u2019s already a new store bundle announced for the gun. In the past, this has been a familiar story \u2014 a new, OP gun gets a fancy blueprint that everyone buys to be on top of the meta \u2014 so there\u2019s cause for concern. But this time there\u2019s a mix of reactions. Some players are excited, noting that these attachments alter the gun \u201cin a creative way.\u201d Others are less enthused, remembering it as a \u201cwin button\u201d in BO3 and speculating that it \u201cwill be deliberately overpowered\u201d to encourage microtransactions. At this moment, no one knows what the gun\u2019s statistics are like and how meta it might actually become in Warzone or BOCW. Another group of players isn\u2019t even thinking about either of those two modes, as Zombies players are delightfully intrigued. A common sentiment is expressed by \u2018Calwings\u2019 on Reddit, who hopes the new Marshal is balanced but loves its potential: \u201cThis is going to be so dumb (in a fun way).\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone players freak out over Season 5\u2019s upcoming Akimbo fire shotguns Activision \/ PexelsIf you thought Warzone\u2019s \u201cdoof doof,\u201d fire shotgun meta was wild \u2014 wait until you find out what\u2019s in store for Season 5.
