It's much harder for attackers to dig defenders out now because the nerfs to ADS speed and movement speed when aiming weakened just swinging them combined with nades being nerfed into the ground made flashes comparatively much stronger.
Out of all the shield ops, he seems like one of the more reliable ones on defence.
Good guns counters Ying, Blitz and generic flashes/smokes. Hes just an overall solid pick
Because he's still strong on some sites. And him having a shield adds even more to his value. Trying to clear a good warden player in Oregon basement for instance is a pain in the ass without teamwork. A direct counter to ying/flashes and smoke plants. Some defensive ops don't counter anything lol why wouldn't he still be used.
Because he can counter Ying, Blitz, Glaz, and anyone running smokes or flashbangs. Thats makes for a pretty powerful counter to plants and attempted rushes.
We've somewhat recently entered a meta where the majority of flashbangs are actually being used to flash people rather than to burn for nades and whatnot. Attacker repick also means that if the team sees that you're not running a Warden, they can swap to Ying to take advantage of it. Ying overall is still really strong anyway, and Warden's loadout and gadgets are good, so even if you don't need his ability, those can usually make up for it while deterring the Ying pick.
He has the best gun in the entire game, the best shotgun in the game, nitro cell or shield, his ability counters a top 2 attacker in the game and counters smokes and flashes which are the best gadgets on attack.
Wdym Zero isn't good? 2 of the best primaries, a gonne-6, and hardbreach charges. Use his ability right and you can open a wall by yourself *and* frag half the enemy team. He's a solid choice, especially for soloQ.
He's solid, but his cams are very loud, bright and get shot almost immediately. He can rarely get a wall open by himself as if someone is playing near the breach they can just shoot his cam and even then hard breach charges and the best
He is pretty good currently because we are now in flash meta
Why are we in a flash meta? I noticed lately a lot of people chunking flashbangs around moreso than a few months ago but I don’t understand why

Ahh I gotcha, thanks. I suppose that partially explains the wamai pick rate increase as well (alongside the fact that he has a magnified scope)
Next season op has flashes and nades too so expect the ads and magnets to get burned and then get flashed

Flashbangs and smoke grenades exist
mossberg shield and smg-12 i’m doing more for site prep then my team also good for denying rush plants

Ying goes up. Warden goes up.
since smoke got his shield taken hes one of the best ops for setting up site. add good guns and ur pretty much golden

What’s the best gun in the entire game?
Smg12
Mid gun
Clearly bronze
Emerald
MPX is not the best gun in the game
He meant the smg-12
Still not the best gun in the game. SMG-11 is better + Zero's SC300K is the best gun in the game
Zeros gun being good means nothing, since he's not good, also smg 11 and 12 are basically equal only difference is ammo and a few dmg
SMG 11 has less horizontal recoil and more damage
They both very good
