Summary

In Season 5, Warzone’s weapon rebalancing puts mid‑range assault rifles like the KRIG C into sharper focus, while bringing down the power of others like the AMAX and AK‑74. SMGs such as the C9 get minor buffs to help close‑range viability. Sniper rifles received meaningful reductions in flinch resistance, making them potentially less forgiving in head‑on firefights. The overall tuning shift seems aimed at making engagements more mode‑versatile and strategic.
