[@Moe-Freeman]

Great content as usual. The amount of work you put in to make the system of your project work is really awesome and under appreciated. You can tell you spent days working on your website and videos. But please, I'm always waiting for your videos, but everything is about Warzone. Will you ever make any videos on Multiplayer? waiting for best weapons for close and long range metas on regular multiplayer game mods and maps forever. Been subscribed and notified on all your vids since last year's cod.

[@CarnivoryHODL]

As long as you’re hitting stomach & up, still very viable. No need to go for headshots unless target’s stationary.

[@dominicsayabouapheth2515]

With the damage nerf tbh. It won't change much, as long as you have your teammates tag the enemy too, you can crack then and thirst. So you don't fully have to be the main one dealing damage.

[@jimforceus2885]

I like the executive summary Tony. Quick and to the point with data. 💪

[@biglebob1]

I believe a good nerf without killing the gun would be to remove the neckshot multiplier. since as it is now, the MTZ basically has a huge head hitbox which makes landing higher damage shots more likely.

[@danny-1993]

Or change the rpm abit

[@sibidinakaran4757]

The thing that makes the MTZ / Bren DMR great is that its recoil resets to the *exact same position* after each bullet (with meta build). No matter the range, if you get a headshot, you will indeed get a second headshot if the target is still. Now, I don't think they should change this, because it makes it a unique gun to use, so they should make it a lot less forgiving. A 4 shot upper chest is fine if even one shot to the arms or legs drops it to 5. You should have no excuse for bad aim if the gun has effectively zero recoil. Also playing WZ day one of this season, i played the mtz when it was 2 tap to the head. Good Times!

Are any of the other Marksman riffle viable? Ive been tryimg to use the 6.8 and the KVD, both literally opposite spectrum in terms type of DMR, i cant tell if they are good quite yet, any thoughts?

[@mattreid5190]

I switched to the MCW 6.8 last week. It's a 3 headshot, 4 shot with 2 head shots, and 5 chest. It has a 60 round mag, shots way faster than the MTZ, and one of the ammunitions makes it basically hitscan. The only flaw is the visual recoil but actual recoil is low like most guns. It's not OP like the MTZ but is balanced in the meta. I plan on using it until we see what happens next week.

[@ExtremeFighter]

They should've nerf the arm dmg as well to match the legs

[@ROTMGmimighster]

Maybe they should just make the neck multiplier the same as the chest instead of the head. I think 3 shots to kill with 2 headshots is fair if it's actually hard to do.

[@krisdegrusha2350]

That would be a good change

@@Samuraiflash85 Like a less consistent MTZ with better handling. Theoretically kills even faster than MTZ but you need all head and chest and no limb shots. Also worth noting the MCW 6.8 has like 25% more bullet velocity, it actually shoots spicy fast bullets as a feature

Not sure why more people don't talk about the mtz 762 on semi auto. It doesn't have the range like the interceptor and def isnt a replacement but in the AR category of mid range (and even close range), the mtz 762 semi auto destroys anything else and I wonder why nobody talks about it. Its a little wierd to get used to at first since you have to fire so fast but even at unoptimal firerate, you still destroy everyone. I get accused of hacking constantly bc of how fast I kill people.

[@bryanmorgan758]

Nerfing it to take 1 extra shot is not a nerf lol, the major benefits of this gun are recoil and when an entire team of 4 are running it..

[@dominicsayabouapheth2515]

The dmr meta is back, but tbh they should just add sway to the reset per shot. That's why the mtz is competitive. Damage could be argued too, but it's the recentering

[@Alex-dm3dr]

I agree this is the main issue is not the dmg but how easy it is to use. Increase scope sway, delay between shots, or increased recoil would help take it out of the meta while still keeping it as a solid weapon for those that can hit their shots.

[@dominicsayabouapheth2515]

@Alex-dm3dr yeah I agree. I feel like that's how nerfs should be. Not to knock any weapon out of meta, but be within Meta, being viable and competitive with drawbacks for good players who spend hours to still easy to use for newer players.

[@Tixrok]

Nah as much as I don’t like getting killed by this good which I rarely do it is balanced at this point in my opinion. We need strong DMR variety in this game and if this is the best it’s not that bad ro have. Still need skill to aim and hit moving targets

The other marksman rifles are debatably better than the MTZ and the battle rifle version has a faster ttk in single fire than the marksman version.

[@turbo558]

There is just no logic with this nerf, most players wont even notice a change. The main problem is the recoil return to center especially with aim assist & fire rate imo. The fact that headshots are not very rewarding in this game is bad enough, making guns like this NOT rely heavily on them for good ttk is even worse when stacked with the easy recoil and good fire rate. This weapon should stay viable but it needs a rate of fire and recoil nerf otherwise out of 140 some guns, 50% of controller players will still use the mtz because why wouldnt they

[@KrillinInTheNameOf]

I'm glad Thor, God of Thunder was here to tell me about this.

[@TimG1089]

The gun is still way too oppressive. You can keep reducing its damage and adding another shot or 2 to get a kill, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s way too easy to hit fast consecutive shots with it.

[@Jarrodpimental]

People were already hitting multiple head shots though. So nothing has changed AT ALL

[@QzeyGaming]

As a sniper main I haven’t touched wz cause the gun was just so easy to use. The nerf doesn’t nerf shit when 4 mfs using it all scoped at you with no glint on the corio eagle eye. Nerf scopes having less recoil and no glint. Doesn’t make sense in my opinion.

[@rMDecay]

It won’t matter it’s not just the interceptor that’s extremely broken anyway. The 6.8 and the kvd are just as bad they need to nerf the entire marksman class. It upsets the balance one and two those kinds of gunfights are lackluster and no fun.

TAQ M and tempus torrent also have similar TTK but its all about range and no recoil. The MTZ recentering is braindead easy compared to the other marksman.

[@starlite_lord4321]

@@johnsonjunior547 I ignore all MW2 guns no matter what their ttk is because they all have too many downsides vs MW3 alternatives. KVD however has same ease of use, recoil etc as MTZ but with *significantly* longer range, and faster fire rate / ADS as well. The only reason it wasn't meta before was MTZ's crazy damage - but after the nerf the damage (or shots to kill) is the same for both.

[@xxxmtb]

The gun having aim assist is the problem, not gun

[@Adam-pk7go]

Yeah guns with almost no recoil are a bit strong on roller, it’s kind of hard to miss shots. Even a little bit of consistent recoil would throw the average player off enough to make this less annoying. No recoil helps on kbm too of course, but the visual recoil makes tracking a little tougher since you can’t see where your point of aim actually is 80% of the time while shooting it. That and with the slow fire rate, if you fire right after they switch directions and miss cause you don’t have instant reaction time *aim assist*, it’s punishing and feels more balanced.

[@fcrossplay]

Agreed if we are going to have a one shot sniper we should have weapons to counter them

[@sidewinder1636]

Hell yes, couldn’t agree more. If they nerf this gun then they have to nerf 1 shot snipers. The Intercepter uses sniper ammo so it should kill quick with minimal shots.
