Warzone’s new meta Assault Rifle is perfect Krig C replacement after nerf

After being the go-to weapon for weeks in Warzone, the nerfed Krig C has been replaced by a new meta Assault Rifle that’s set to dominate Season 4 Reloaded.

The Warzone meta has seen plenty of major changes as of late. Season 4 Reloaded brought a ton of weapon buffs and nerfs, before the July 8 update adjusted the DM-10 to make it less powerful.

One of the biggest changes, though, was the long-awaited nerf to the Krig C, which looked to end its lengthy run as the undisputed best gun in the game.

If this has left you wondering what to use, don’t worry, the Cypher 091 is here to fill the gap as the strongest Assault Rifle in Warzone.

Cypher 091 replaces Krig C as meta AR in Warzone

Warzone expert WhosImmortal highlighted the Cypher in his July 9 video, where he named it “easily the new number one rifle” following the update.” He broke down its TTK compared to the other contenders, and it’s easy to see why it got the seal of approval.

While the GPR 91 can kill slightly faster at close range and the FFAR 1 just has the edge over longer distances, the Cypher is consistently reliable at any range. This means you’re never at a severe disadvantage, no matter which kind of fight you get dragged into.

It’s also much more forgiving thanks to its easy-to-use recoil pattern, so achieving the fastest possible TTK is realistic in most engagements, whereas the others require much more skill to get the best out of them.
