“Pay to win” Warzone AR Blueprint set to take over after Kar98k nerf

Warzone‘s best Assault Rifle has no visual clutter when firing and extremely low recoil, making it easy to stay on target and hit shots, but only if you have purchased a specific Blueprint.

The Gundam event in Warzone and MW3 brought a load of new cosmetics to Call of Duty, including the Aerial Beam MTZ-556 Weapon Blueprint.

This AR has already proved to be a popular choice in Season 4, and it only gets better if you use this Blueprint.

The Aerial Beam MTZ-556 eliminates smoke and visual clutter from the barrel when firing, as well as reducing the screen shake effect that can effect your accuracy. This makes it extremely easy to see the recoil pattern and stay on target, increasing your chances for a higher TTK.

Make sure you’re using the Aerial Beam Rifle skin for the MTZ Clinch Pro Barrel attachment, as this is the attachment that reduces the visual recoil, while also giving the weapon a Pack-A-Punch sound effect when firing.

You can get this MTZ-556 Blueprint by purchasing the Gundam Mobile Suit XVX-01 Tracer Pack, which will set you back 2,400 CoD Points, which is around $20/£16.79.

YouTuber Metaphor has called this MTZ-556 Blueprint “pay to win,” as they described the lack of visual clutter as “absolutely crazy.”

Metaphor pairs the MTZ Blueprint with the JAK Glassless Optic for an even cleaner view when firing, which is a deadly combination.

The content creator even went as far as to call it the “best AR in the game right now,” and even said it could be the gun everyone is using after the Kar98k nerf, especially if they have this Blueprint.

With all the buffs and nerfs arriving with the Season 4 Reloaded update, who knows which weapon or attachment will rise to the top. Players also branded the Fallout crossover optic as pay to win, so perhaps we’ll see more of that in the update, or perhaps one of the new weapons will go on to take over the meta in battle royale.
