After a year of nerfs, one of the Modern Warfare 2 SMG is now back on top in the current game meta. Following the latest Modern Warfare 3 patch, the Lachmann Sub is now back on top as one of the best guns in the game.
Even without building out the best Lachmann Sub loadout, the MW2 SMG was able to rinse through enemies with ease. However, after multiple rounds of nerfs in updates, the submachine gun dropped out of the list of best Modern Warfare weapons.
With Modern Warfare 3 bringing every MW2 gun into its weapon locker, fans have been awaiting a nerf for the Lachmann Sub. As it turns out, that’s always happened, and fans are finally noticing the glorious return of the GOAT gun.
CoD YouTuber WhosImmortal discussed the new changes in a recent video, telling fans that the once-beloved MW2 SMG is now a great performer once again. While the gun never became useless, it’s nice to see the weapon climb back up the ranks to greatness.
“It’s not often we get to talk about them (MW2 guns) this year, they’re obsolete in so many ways, but they ended up buffing the MP5, the Lachmann Sub, in Season 2 Reloaded and it’s feeling good. In multiplayer, where the TTK is already fast, you could get away with using it but now it’s actually really competitive,” WhosImmortal told fans in a recent video.
The Lachmann Sub is available to use across Modern Warfare 2, Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Warzone, as well as Warzone: Mobile when its release date hits. The new buffs have been released across all versions of the game, making the MW2 SMG an absolute beast in multiple titles.
With the huge buff now available, the Lachmann Sub could end up becoming one of the most popular weapons in the MW3/Warzone meta once again.
