Snipers. Skill. Shotguns. Your Choice.

What does shotguns and snipers have in common? Number one is the people always whining about how they need nerfed. Then whenever they get nerfed people complain about them needing buffed. Thus creating an endless cycle. However this is not what I need to talk about. What I need to talk about is how, some guns actually require skill and some don't. Shotguns while sliding and blinking may require a bit of skill, are the basic newbie weapon and they need something like that to start off. Snipers however are the weapon that the endgame players often use because they know how to take advantage of in-game mechanics like aim-assist. Shotguns are the introduction and snipers are the endgame. Newbie to pro. This is why you should not be nerfing either because at the current spot, snipers and shotguns are in a good place. They both require skill to a certain degree and both of them don't always need nerfed. What do you think?

  • I agree both guns take skill to use. Just different kinds of skill. Neither is necessarily better than the other when used correctly. There's really no reason to keep nerfing shotguns while snipers stay the same. If you like long range fighting use a sniper, and if you like it up close and personal use a shotty. It's really that simple.

    • All weapons require skill. Otherwise everyone would have a KD of 1.
