Nonetheless, it seems like CODM is running tight with the weapon balances. It is at a point where it cannot decide how to not break the game with a new weapon each time.

Last season saw the Fennec release. Currently, the SMG is wrecking havoc in all lobbies with its insanely fast fire rate. Add the Akimbo perk to it and you have a shredding machine. Up close, there is almost nothing that can beat the Fennec now. It feels like just two seasons ago when the Echo shotgun would pump through your body no matter what you were wielding.

While we wait for the Fennec to be nerfed, CODM has another weapon to offer. The AGR 556 is this season’s prize for the players. Is it worth it? Well, yes, and no.

First and foremost, the gun is a hybrid. Though you can locate the gun in the SMG section of the inventory, it essentially functions as an AR. In battle royale, the gun equips heavy ammo unlike other SMGs. In the attachment section, the gun has an ammunition attachment for 5.56 ammo.

The 5.56 Ammunition attachment:

  •  fire rate of M4
  • Hitboxes remain same
  • Increases damage
  • 30-Round magazine
  • Decreases time to kill

With a gun like this, it can get difficult to decipher a correct playstyle for it. It is not great up close and also takes up an entire magazine in the distance. Perhaps a mid-range fight suits it best.
