Warzone 2 SMG Tier List: February 2023
S Tier
- Fennec 45
- Vaznev-9K
Our S Tier still has the Fennec 45 in the top spot. With little recoil and an unmatched TTK time, the fast-firing SMG is the best option for close gunfights. Although the Vaznev-9K does not kill as quickly, the gun's high mobility and damage has made it a favorite in the current meta.
A Tier
- Lachmann Sub
- Vel 46
The Lachmann Sub and the Vel 46 fall into the A Tier. Both guns are fast-handling and have low recoil, but their damage is weaker than the S Tier SMGs. With the right attachments, they are still solid options for close gunfights despite their lack of versatility.
B Tier
- FSS Hurricane
- Minibak
The FSS Hurricane and the Minibak remain in B Tier. The hurricane is great for mid-range gunfights, but, like the Minibak, will lose close fights to the Fennec, Vaznev, and akimbo pistols. The Minibak does offer players a 64-round mag that will aid them in prolonged fights with multiple enemies.
C Tier
- MX9
- BAS-P
- PDSW 528
Our C Tier weapons will not serve players well in most gunfights on Al Mazrah. With so many better options, including the Kastov-74U that some players run as an SMG, players should avoid these weapons to go far in a game. They lack firepower and just do not deliver enough damage to be a viable option past off-spawn ground loot.
Players can expect updated rankings once Season 2 drops.
