SMG-9 vs Crotzni

(titaniumCrouton) #1

What are your guys feelings after the patch about these weapons? How do they stack up? I’m not too aware of the stats personally so I am wondering how the rest of the community feels. I’ve seen it talked about in a few threads here and there, so figured it should be a thread all on it’s own by now.

Feel like Crotzni is still stonger close-mid range. Just need to controll your firing in more bursts to reduce bloom. In larger maps like Chapel the SMG-9 might be better due to the many open long range situations.

May I ask why is that? I don’t know where to look up there exact stats so I’m wondering what one has over the other exactly.

Crotzni’s bloom got nerfed last patch where the spread increases 10% faster. The crotzni and SMG9 accuracy used to be pretty much the same which made the SMG9 just a weaker version of the Crotzni, now the SMG9 is the more accurate version but less powerful version.

I’m not sure if it’s updated for the newest patch though, might be better to just test ingame.

Crotzni is still head and shoulders above the SMG-9 nerf really only hurts if you spray and pray but you should be doing controlled medium length burst

This. It’s easy to get around the increased spread by just burst firing, which you should be doing at range anyways.
