Warzone Shotgun Buffs
Scopes and Scatterguns involves players dropping into a match with just shotguns and sniper rifles at their disposal, making it difficult to deal with opposition in mid-range engagements.

With the majority of the players sharing the same concern, few were quick to point out the contrary state of the VLK Rogue. “Don't tell this to anyone, but the VLK Rogue shotty with firebreath is borderline meta. That thing is super nasty, almost Gallo-like,” added evsorr.
