Warzone SMG outguns Static-HV after \u201cinsane\u201d range buff ActivisionWarzone Season 5 Reloaded saw a variety of weapons receive buffs and nerfs, and the Striker was one of the biggest beneficiaries of these changes. The submachine gun meta has been dominated by the Static-HV since it was added in Season 5. However, the meta SMG was nerfed in Season 5 Reloaded, opening the door for another competitor to take its place. Of the available SMGs, the Striker is the leading candidate to do so, with it receiving a big range buff. Its max damage range went from 12.7 to 14.48 meters, while its near-mid damage range was increased from 24.13 to 26.67 meters. This huge buff didn\u2019t go unnoticed by Warzone expert WhosImmortal, who expressed, \u201cThis thing\u2019s range is insane. It just doesn\u2019t drop off,\u201d before commenting, \u201cIts first damage range extends past pretty much everything else,\u201d emphasizing just how deadly the Striker is at a distance. The praise didn\u2019t stop there either, with WhosImmortal later describing the Striker as \u201cone of the best options in the entire game\u201d thanks to its ease of use and incredible range. Here\u2019s the recommended loadout to use with the Striker to maximize its effective range: Muzzle: Quartermaster Suppressor – Barrel: Striker Recon Long Barrel – Underbarrel: Paracord Grip – Ammunition: .45 Auto High Grain Rounds – Magazine: 48 Round Mag – With this particular loadout, the Striker has a fast time to kill of 651 ms out to 20 meters. What\u2019s really impressive is that its TTK remains competitive all the way out to 48 meters, which is incredible for a submachine gun in Warzone. For comparison, the Static-HV falls off around 30 meters, while the Superi 46 is only viable out to around 25 meters. In other words, the Striker completely outclasses its competitors when it comes to range, and it\u2019s not even close. This trump card makes the buffed SMG excellent as both a sniper support and a versatile primary weapon. It also has low recoil, making it easy to take advantage of this unique strength.
