Warzone 2 expert JGOD revealed the new meta AR for long-range after the Season 5 Reloaded update weapon balance that outshines the popular M13B.

Following the Cronen Squall‘s dominance in Warzone 2 for at least two seasons, devs decided to considerably nerf the gun with the September 6 update, allowing other weapons like the M13B and Kastov 762 to rise up and gain popularity in the meta.

Despite the M13B’s popularity has skyrocketed since the last weapon nerfs and buffs, popular content creator and Warzone expert JGOD revealed the Kastov 762 is one of the best “all around” long-range gun options for the game.

Warzone 2’s Kastov 762 is an extremely powerful Assault Rifle.

The YouTuber provided a motive for his disinterest in the popular M13B, stating that “It is a reliable gun,” but he personally doesn’t particularly like it, as the “gun should have an 80-round mag” to maybe higher the possibilities of making it his go-to as a fast-firing gun.

On the contrary, he supported the Kastov 762 Assault Rifle, stating that “the great part about this gun is the fast reload.” Then, he followed up by sharing the widely recognized trick where reloading with multiple bullets results in a quicker reload, making this gun a more than viable option for the long-range meta.

If you’re looking to dominate enemies at long range within Warzone 2, here’s JGOD’s best Kastov 762 loadout for Season 5 Reloaded.
