Warzone players slam devs for making fan-favorite AR \u201cobsolete\u201d ActivisonSince its introduction in Modern Warfare 2019, the M13B has established itself as a beloved AR. But after three straight nerfs, Warzone community members are mourning its fall from grace. Accepting the harsh reality of every weapon not being viable in a battle royale is a tough pill to swallow. There are 58 weapons in MW2 and only about three or four are viable every Warzone season. The devs do their best to nerf and buff weapons regularly, but there is always a well-defined meta. Players are more than welcome to use their favorite gun even if it isn\u2019t considered one of the game\u2019s best options. And success is still possible by mastering the weapon\u2019s ins and outs, but players will most likely run into problems when going head-to-head against a stronger option. For example, the M13B has been near the top of Warzone\u2019s meta several times yet recently fell out of favor. Consecutive nerfs now have the fast-firing rifle completely out of contention, and fans have lost hope in the weapon ever being strong again. Three straight M13B nerfs outrage Warzone fans On October 23, the Warzone devs released a balancing update that nerfed the M13B\u2019s close damage and torso damage multipliers. The AR also saw its head and neck damage multipliers increased, but the slight buff wasn\u2019t enough to satisfy fans. One player took their frustrations to Reddit, claiming: \u201cYet another nerf to the M13 making it even more obsolete than ever before. They just don\u2019t want anyone using this gun anymore, and I don\u2019t understand why.\u201d Nerfs to the Kastov 762 and TR-76 Geist opened the door for a new long-range meta king, but it won\u2019t be the M13B. Instead, and much to the chagrin of the OP, the M4 is poised to take the throne after receiving a slight buff. One player accepted reality and argued: \u201cThere\u2019s like 60-something guns in this game. Absolutely no way of keeping guns from being obsolete when there\u2019s that much balancing required.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ve been rocking the same few weapons through both nerfs and buffs since the beginning. They feel good to me.\u201d This player has decided to use their favorite weapons even after a nerf and has had no issues doing so. A third community member complained: \u201cMy favorite gun has become useless.\u201d The devs will have their hands full in MW3, attempting to create a balanced meta with MW2 weapons carrying over.
