Pre nerf Vesper in the start on BO3 was insane

This guy is literally skipping the prime cod era and all of its broken guns lol

You children dont remember the dominance of the MP40 in WaW.

Thermal sight Ameli in AW might have been one of the most frustrating things to face in CoD history

Bizon meta was actually absurd. It could hipfire 2 tap at range.

Bo2 fal Ghosts vector Aw pre patch bal-27 Ww2 fg-42 Mw19 mp5 (10mm, merc grip) Cold war m4 Vanguard volk

no prepatch bal? no gslide bo3? no select fire fal? pre patch vesper bo3? m4 mw2? cold war m4? ghosts vector? fg42 ww2?

‘Despite being challenging for the average player’ *shows sloss falling off the map*

Honorable mentions: - volk (vanguard major 2) - drone squad, snipers nest, gunship (bo4 cwl vegas and Fort Worth) Sound eq (Cold War and Mw2)

i remember mw3 being an incredibly broken game all around, so many busted weapons like the acr, mp7, msr, usas, striker, specialist package, etc

You children don't remember the dominance that was the Stopping Power M16A4 in COD4 💪😤

I wouldnt let my girl around TacRab

Anyone remember the fmj2 rampart at Fort Worth in BO4? Shit was hilarious made Classic look like prime Formal lmao

An alternative title for this is "Why pros bitched their way into making the CDL and ranked more boring than it already was" but thats too long

tthe sniper shotgun from IW was probably the most insane tthing i've seen in all of cod history

nothings as broken as the dragons breath rounds in cod ww2 pre nerf.

Pre patch akimbo models: look what they need to do to mimic a fraction of my power

The OSA is just every gun in ranked now 😂

feel like its a miss to not mention the bo2 fal which was godly and got banned and not sure if it counts but the itra burst rifle in ww2 was so broken in scrims that teams were using 4 of them every map at least in snd. Imo the mp5 in mw2019 with the 10mm rounds also deserves a mention. they ga'd the bullets cos they just made the gun too crazy at all ranges.

the pre Nerf bal was insane

7:09 I love how you can see the wall behind the dude, with a complete traced outline of bullet holes. The reason he was upset was self revealing, love to see it

Nostalgic. 👍🏽 I miss the 2010-2018 CoD comp era.

One man army noob tubes, dual model shotguns, mp40 jug, just to add a couple more

I like how pro players use the same weapon or setup as everyone else, and people will go crazy like it's a new thing. Just like Scump with his Saug SMG setup in BO4.

OMG Those screenshots from Xclusive Ace videos and other class setup OG's bring back so many memories

Glad to see some hate on the synaptic rig, I was an FTL main but eventually switched to Phantom solely to mark Synaptics and stunt their healing

From my experience with IW and BO4, the Synaptics and BO4 Tempest genuinely made the game unbearable. It felt like you couldn't take a step without someone having one of those and raining all over your parade.

The only reason why i only use sneptic only, is because many sweaty players are only using sneptic, otherwise i wont stand a chance against them if i use any other rig,, but when i use a sneptic rig,, i absolutely destroy the enemy team,,, sooo in turn they really no reason to use any rigs except sneptic (occasionally ftl) because that what cod iw multiplayer is all about, sneptic with populsion with dark sky camo titan lmg or a dark sky camo double shotgun, with spy plain/warden/advanced uav killstreak spam,,,and if your not using this tactic,, you automatically lose the game, trust me i know, i max prestige the game

M-16 in cod4 with stopping power was a 2 shot kill from any distance. That, the model 1887 pre patch and the 725 from MW2019 also come to mind

Snaking was around way before MW3, used to be nuts of WAW

10:30 So CoD has had its own version of OlofPass.

The Fal from BO2 and the Bal ASM1 combo from advanced warfare was crazy.

I don’t mind having jet packs back as I really enjoyed some of the plays that got made while using it. It made the game feel so much better. I hated specialists though. I prefer to be able to customize my operator.

I remember when the razorback was broken in the bo3 beta.

If you go back to BO4 now, you’ll see the two most broken metas. While the tempest is still used, it’s no match for the sightless hades and that one smg that I can never name lol

Honorable mention: Mac10 from Cold War. I swear that thing shreds people in seconds and I’ve seen almost everyone use it in every lobby I was in

Anyone remember G Sliding in BO3? Literally with a click of 2 buttons were sent flying half way across the map 😭

Awesome vid Rab!

great idea looking forward to this vid rab

i love how cod used to shove assault rifles in the smg category because they were small like the aks74u and the tar lol

Bo1 snaking was on another level.

I don’t realize I was a sneaker until just now. I turned out, according to this video it was an abused mechanic, I didn’t know lol

10:30 “They’re in the trees!”

I don't remember the Bizon being THAT good back when I used to play COD Ghosts. Must've been nerfed relatively quickly.

Rewind was basically glitch from blops 3 but even then prophet wasnt meta

As someone who stopped playing CoD as of BO1, its clear this channel is a newer player. Modern warfare 2 had like 5 completely broken metas all its own. Only newer games were featured here.

Was expecting pre-nerf akimbo model 1887s to be here tbh

they fixed the synaptic operator tho, boost doesnt recover that fast anymore, and the new meta became rewind x titan real quick

Missed the Akimbo KAP-40s from BO2

The entirety of MW2 (2009 ofc) was stupidly broken, everything was so broken that it actually somehow balanced out lol, fun times

My boy tactical ran forgot ab stairglitching

I was a heavy infinite warfare fanatic man dont even get me started on synaptic. This plus nv4 flatline was so lame.

With snaking when he said this is how overpowered it is, I think he meant to say how broken it is

Tac Rab is amazing for being so incredibly entertaining one minute and then boring the next it’s awesome

Could make this an hour long video if you included every broken meta 😂😂 Bo3 pre nerf Vesper was godlike, Bo3 pre nerf spectre, Bo3 G-SLIDEEEE, AW pre nerf Bal honorable mentions

Im surprised there was no mention of the breccie from bo3. Easily one of the most broken weapons in cod.

hot take: specialist is what made bo4 control fun to watch and play

the fal in bo2 was scary bro

Support Strike Package streaks on MW3 was broken asf....

“This is the most overpow- *dies after hitting the guy like 5 times* this is the most overpowered smg in the game”

due to GA it wasn’t in pro league but 725 in MW2019

RIP Phizzurp

You can say what ever you wann but, IW comp was pure Gold

if only pre nerf hades crossbar was available in cod champs it is the most broken weapon in cod history i remember using it and 2 shotting people across map good times

i remember bo4 having an assault rifle that would kill in one bullet on hardcore while everything else was 2 or 3

I still get flashbacks of the WAW MP40

Great video lads

0:19 how on earth do you get a sponsorship with jack in the box?

God I remember the first month of iw…that fucking oso was the thing of nightmares

You forgot the DMR 14 from Cold War in Warzone

5:08 rip phil❤️

Didn't even mention One Man Army tubing. Fuck I feel old now.

olofboost rules clearly state you should do a rematch before getting disqualified for using unintended sightlines

MR6 was ridiculous in bo3

the peacekeeper in BO2 went dumb

I personally don’t know why they banned so much shit in esports. It’s like if the nfl banned the tush push because the eagles are too good at it. Same goes with shotgun ban. That literally the whole point of a shotgun to clear rooms and close quarters. If a player is able to hold a small room by themselves with a shotgun then he’s doing the a good job with the right tool.

That Phizzurp Bizon clip is legendary R.I.P

Why is the titan not mentioned for infinite warfare? It was 3 shot

naw the prepatch sniper from IW, it had literal aimbot until it was patched i remember 😂 The OG G-sliding was soooooo good.

bro these people wont remember galil, ump and m16 from the golden era, 2 shots across the map and ez

2/3 tap meta in call of duty Mobile is actually crazy man.

how are you going to put snacking but not include the gslide.

Does anyone know what point that guy at 0:10 was trying to prove lol

Where’s the longbow sniper

Danger close grenade launcher, one man army

This is the kind of video I'd watch

Awesome video as I totally skipped IW and I didn't play comp in Ghosts as I didn't like the game that much. Why can't the CoD devs make a decent ranked mode? I quit MWIII because I ran out of things to do and in my opinion banning game mechanics is dumb because they are annoying to play against sure, but they are in the game. CS2 doesn't ban the auto sniper because it's annoying to play against.

Nobody talking about pre patch akimbo 1887's is actually a crime lmao.

You guys don’t remember the kap 40 meta in bo2 till it got nerfed

I never realised the gentlemen’s agreement was a thing but now you mention it… (upon reflection it wasn’t real, we have to enforce playing fair through rules, ain’t nobody really using off meta by choice right?)

Remember the Brecci in bo3 🤣

The fal got outright banned and its not on the list?

nothing about M2187 thunder on pc

wheres the s6 stingray?

I was never even a little bit into competitive cod, but now seeing how many ga are needed between the players and teams i just cant wrap my head around how such a series can be fun to watch or to play, viewer and pro players alike.

How the fuck were shotguns ever in comp😂

The Dingo was absolutely cracked in bo3

idk what snaking is but its a good tactic and i learned it playing halo

love to see vids like this. The CWL times was so much better. Comp cod now feels dead tbh
