New update has brought a massive change in the Meta category!

There’s no denying the fact that Call of Duty Warzone has got some tantalizing weapon classes. They offer players tons of options to pick the most ideal gun, sniper rifle, or pistol for a specific situation, to eventually win more fights and matches. And that’s exactly what the Meta section of this game tends to do – give the players an increased power to stay ahead of the competition.

So far, the one gun that has remained an undisputed go-to option, with solid firepower, it’s the Cronen Squall. This battle rifle was revealed a few seasons ago but has succeeded to hold its ground against some of the heavyweight guns in Warzone. But now, it’s been dethroned by a new champion. At least that’s what COD expert and legendary gamer JGOD has mentioned on YouTube.

HCR 56 is the best choice for long range fights in Call of Duty Warzone Season 4

JGOD has earned a reputation in the COD community with his constant hard work as a professional gamer of Activision’s action franchise. Apart from being an exceptional player, he also has expertise in the knowledge related to the most impressive load-outs and weapons. Speaking of the latter, he recently made a video about the powerful Warzone Meta gun for Season 4.

He revealed that Cronen Squall is no longer an undefeated weapon. That’s because of a major update, related to player health, introduced by the devs. In case anyone missed keeping track of events, the health value has been increased from 100HP to 150HP in Call of Duty Warzone. Consequentially, it takes more bullets to take down an enemy now.

Keeping this point into consideration, JGOD mentioned that HCR 56 could be the perfect replacement for Cronen Squall. The latter has been nerfed down in the latest season. In other words, it’s no longer a super effective, overpowered gun in the game.

The COD YouTuber compared many weapons based on their TTK (time to kill) speed. He found out that when it comes to long-range fights, HCR 56 LMG is the best Meta gun that can prove to be a killing machine. And that it could potentially replace Cronen Squall going forward.

Here are the attachments used by JGOD for this LMG:

  • Muzzle: Harbinger D20 (+1.08, +0.48)
  • Barrel: FTAC Hornet 20″ Barrel (+0.34, -0.23)
  • Ammunition: 5.56 High Velocity (-0.29, -4.06)
  • Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56 ( +0.59, +0.30)
  • Optic: Aim Op-V4 (-0.58, +1.80)
