With the Season 3 opening of Warzone, close-quarter combat is really intense on the nostalgic streets of Verdansk-from twisted alleyways of Superstore to brutal building clears in Downtown. An appropriate close-range loadout is a game-maker or -breaker between clutching a win or getting sent to the Gulag. Within this meta, the two emerging best contender weapons are the KSV SMG, an all-time devastating weapon, and the C9, which is agile and has a hard hit. Here is the best setup to keep you ahead of the pack.

1. KSV – King of close-quarters

The KSV established its undisputed reign over short-range firefights in a very rapid time period. Crisp recoil pattern with huge potential for consistent results-it's a weapon of choice for aggressive players. What differentiates a KSV from the rest is its laser-sharp time-to-kill and reliability in all types of close-combat situations-from hectic stairwell fights to tight room-clears. Unlike some SMGs that rely purely on speed or gimmicks, the KSV earns its strength through balance. Control, speed, and punch combine as few guns can.
Top 10 META LOADOUTS For VERDANSK WARZONE SEASON 3!

KSV's meta loadout:
  • Muzzle: Compensator: Smoothes out the recoil but not at too much of a cost for mobility.
  • Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip: Maximizes your stability when firing massively.
  • Magazine: Extended Mag II: Just enough ammo for duos or trios without weighing you down.
With a mobility emphasis in perks (Double Time, Sleight of Hand, and Quick Fix), with KSV you are a menace in the room.

2. C9 – High-speed hunter

If C9 is the wild, temperamental cousin, KSV is the balanced king. Designed for speed demons and slide-cancel maniacs, however, C9 really comes alive in an urban chaos, where movement means everything. The right attachment transforms it from an adventure into a lightning-fast SMG, deleting enemies before they can react.

It has been saluted as a model with aggressive recoil compensation and wider damage range, which gives it a chance to fire slightly past that of the conventional SMG range-perfect for penetration into many stories or snatching quick peeks around corners.
Best loadout for C9:
  • Muzzle: Compensator Though well and good for grouping tight-as-having, it takes off the top part vertical recoil.
  • Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel - increases bullet velocity; delivers bigger punches in mid-close confrontation.
  • Magazine: Extended Mag II 50-because 30 bullets aren't enough when you're squad wiping.
  • Rear Grip: CQB Grip for fastest sprint-to-fire conversion.
  • Stock: No Stock-max movement in hit-and-run play style.
In the right hand, it becomes a blur in movement and rapid-fire punishment for darting in and out of the buildings that dot the denser areas of Verdansk.
You know, it is all about playing to the strength of these SMGs in the close-range S3 meta for glory. The KSV is the guaranteed victim of your reliability and control, while the C9 rewards the bravest high-risk-high-reward plays. Whether you are hunting in the Hospital or death-chasing in Quarry, these loadouts will keep you a step ahead in the tightest fights.
