Finally, the reign of the HRM-9 as the Warzone meta SMG is over. It’s been a while since we had the opportunity to use just about anything else.

The recent buffs it received made it one of the best options.
The WSP-9 received a buff in Call of Duty Warzone
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone recently underwent their midseason ‘Reloaded’ update for Season 3. With it came a large number of changes to guns, including nerfing the Warzone meta weapons for the last few months. However, the underrated and underutilized WSP-9 also received a small buff, and it’s one of the best close-range options in battle royale and Resurgence game modes.
According to the developer patch notes, the WSP-9’s sprint-to-fire time was decreased from 110 ms to 66 ms, a 44% decrease. In other words, you’ll be able to pull it up and shoot more quickly than before while on the move. That’s exactly what you need in a versatile SMG.
