Warzone 2 guru predicts best long-range meta loadout for Season 5
Before Warzone 2 Season 5 begins, FaZe Booya highlighted an AR that has the potential to become the season’s best long-range meta weapon.
As things currently stand, the Cronen Squall and Kastov 762 dominate Warzone 2’s long range meta. However, that will most likely change on August 2, following Season 5’s weapon buffs and nerfs update.
The Cronen Squall already got nerfed inSeason 4, and Infinity Ward doubled down onJuly 24by decreasing the weapon’s damage output. Despite already being nerfed twice, that hasn’t stopped the devs from going back in for more before.
If the Cronen Squall does see another nerf alongside other long-range meta weapons, FaZe Booya pointed to the ISO Hemlock as a weapon worthy of taking its place.
What will be the best long-range weapon in Warzone 2 Season 5
The ISO Hemlock dominated Warzone 2’s meta for most of Season 2 and the first half of Season 3. Back-to-back nerfs inSeason 3knocked the easy-to-use AR off its pedestal.
Ahead of Season 5,FaZe Booyaexplained why the ISO Hemlock is back and better than ever.
“The Hemlock has made a return. I know it has been nerfed in the past, but a lot of the other guns like the Cronen and ARs are getting nerfed as well.”
It’s not that the ISO Hemlock has received any buff recently. But nerfs to other weapons have made the AR’s brightest qualities shine again.
Booya claimed: “It has great damage, low recoil, and it absolutely shreds.”
