Call of Duty: Warzone is currently completely managed by its meta. With the Cold War-dominated DMR 14, Mac-10 and Akimbo Diamattis dominating Warzone, the best contrast is something of a controversial choice.
When Black Ops Cold War merged with Warzone, players were excited to see what cool new guns come into play. Unfortunately, this excitement quickly turned to horror, as it was discovered that certain Cold War weapons were incredibly overwhelmed in Warzone.
If you do not believe us, check out some of these cruel cuts that show why the Cold War guns are broken.
DMR 14: The overwhelming DMR 14 is Ruining Warzone, Claim Players
Mac-10: The new best rifle in Warzone, just arrived with the Cold War
Akimbo Diamattis: Warzone Players Want This Overpowered Gun Nerfed
In fact, players get so irritated with the game that they label Warzone as broken and boring.
But now we finally have a counter against the DMR, Mac-10 and Diamatti in Warzone – but this is a controversial one.
The Best Cold War Rifle Warzone Counter
If you want to counteract the DMR 14, Mac-10, Diamatti and more in Warzone, there’s still a way you can have fun. Clearly, most weapons have no chance against the current meta without nerfs, but one can do the trick.
However, players will probably not want to use it as they have been mocking this Warzone weapon for months.
We are referring, of course, to the Riot Shield. An indestructible wall between you and the incoming DMR fire.
Read this clip from Reddit user Ifrp1 using the Riot Shield to dominate the metagame before uploading the draft. Despite a delivery of DMR 14 in just two strokes, you can not kill enemies they can not beat.
With a Riot Shield in hand, this Warzone player works the weapon users of the Cold War perfectly. And they are even competing for the best termite play in Warzone for the grand finale.
Given that Warzone is in such a bad state at the moment, it’s no wonder players go to controversial counters. But it can actually be fun to try.
This equipment seems to be universally despised, except when players unite against a common enemy. Another recent clip shows two Riot Shield users hitting a Warzone hacker, which is equally satisfying.
One Riot Shield user even manages to defeat a Juggernaut in one of Warzone’s most epic shows.
But since Juggernauts are also not popular in Warzone, players were not sure who to root for in the fight.
