Warzone 2 is being dominated by the fire Shotgun, but thankfully, Call of Duty expert IceManIsaac has revealed a powerful loadout to counter this weapon ahead of the Season 2 Reloaded update.

When the Season 2 update went live in Warzone 2,  four new weapons were added to the Call of Duty title, including the KV Broadside Shotgun which quickly gain a reputation as the most broken weapon in the game.

This overpowered weapon has been dominating close range encounters. Now, Warzone 2 expert IceManIsaac has showcased a deadly weapon loadout that you can use to counter this Shotgun.

In his video, the IceManIsaac explained that the KV Broadside, also being referred to as the fire Shotgun, is “absolutely plaguing Warzone 2 right now,” and making the game feel “near unplayable.”

He then recommend trying out the Lachmann Sub SMG which he described as a “dynamic weapon that counters the fire Shotgun.” For those interested in countering the KV Broadside, IceManIsaac showcased the attachments to make the best loadout for it.

IceManIsaac’s zero recoil Warzone Lachmann Sub loadout

  • Muzzle: Lacerta Compensator
  • Underbarrel: Phase-3 Grip
  • Stock: LM Stockless Mod
  • Magazine: 40 Round Mag
  • Rear Grip: Lachmann TCG-10

IceManIsaac starts off this Lachmann Sub loadout by equipping the Lacerta Compensator muzzle and Phase-3 Grip underbarrel to bring the SMG’s recoil under control while also buffing the hip fire accuracy.

The Lachmann TCG-10 will provide additional recoil control and the LM Stockless Mod will improve the weapon’s mobility. Finally, the 40 Round Mag will grant enough ammo to take out all surrounding enemies before having to reload.

This loadout is built for zero recoil and fast TTK, allowing the SMG to accurately take out fire Shotgun users in close-range combat. The weapon has a much higher movement speed than the Shotgun, so you can take out enemies while being “fast and aggressive.”

The developers confirmed that they will nerf the KV Broadside ahead of the Season 2 Reloaded update. Until then, this weapon loadout can be used to counter the Shotgun in close-range battles.
