Popular Call of Duty pro and content creator FaZe Swagg has revealed the best Warzone SMG loadout you can use after the March 19 update, which nerfed both the HRM-9 and RAM-9.

The March 19 update for Warzone has introduced some pretty interesting updates, including drastic changes to the Gulag, as well as some big nerfs to some of the game’s most popular SMGs.

Both the HRM-9 and RAM-9 were nerfed in the update, leaving players wondering which SMG will rise to take a spot on top of the meta, as both had previously been considered the best options.

Luckily, content creators such as FaZe Swagg are always on the lookout, and the pro has already shared his thoughts on which SMG is now the best following the Warzone March 19 update.

The gun Swagg claims is now the best SMG option in Warzone is the AMR9, as he said his class setup for the AMR9 is “really, really good and probably the best one after the update.”

The pro even shared the attachments he used for his best AMR9 loadout in Warzone, which you can check out below.
