The Gallo SA12 has been banned from Warzone tournaments and with this powerful loadout, FaZe star Kris “Swagg” Lamberson shows why.

As competitive Warzone has evolved, custom lobbies have become the norm, where 150 of Warzone’s best and most high-profile players duke it out against each other. Like any competitive game, certain weapons and items get banned to improve competitive integrity.

One of these banned weapons is the Gallo SA12, which can chew through enemies in only a few hip-fire shots. Its imposing power has caused FaZe Swagg to try it in public matches, and his loadout is all the evidence needed to see why it was banned.

FaZe Swagg explained that in the most recent Twitch Rivals Showdown the Gallo was allowed to be used. “The first custom match we played with it, every single pro ran a Gallo and everyone was like ‘yep, this is why it’s banned,'” he revealed.

He argued that it’s “probably the best one on one gun in the game against a really sweaty player” and after those custom lobbies, “it’s banned throughout; you’ll never be able to use a Shotgun in a custom tournament ever again. ”

However, the Gallo is still there to use in public matches, and FaZe Swagg showed why you should give his loadout a try. Using it alongside the Stoner 63, Swagg managed to rack up an impressive 43 kills.

  • Muzzle: Agency Choke
  • Barrel: 21.4″ Reinforced Heavy
  • Laser: Ember Sighting Point
  • Stock: Wire Stock
  • Ammunition: STANAG 12 Rnd Tube

FaZe Swagg built this Gallo SA12 to tear through enemies at close range, with extra attachments to increase mobility. These speedy attachments allowed him to finesse enemies, making him an unpredictable and hard-to-hit target.

The Agency Choke and 21.4″ Reinforced Heavy barrel vastly increase the Gallo’s range, giving it much more versatility. Then, the Ember Sighting Point and Wire Stock give a powerful mobility boost. And finally, the STANAG 12 Rnd Tube allowed Swagg to take down multiple players without having to reload.
