140 and 120 HCs are kind of the only meta choice in Checkmate as it stands. 450 ARs need Target Lock to compete. They honestly need some kind of aim assist nerf. HCs are low risk/high reward and it’s sort of making Checkmate stale. Inb4 Elitist Rage

Main reason why HCs are so good there is the amount of teamshotting that lingers in every match of it. HCs alone isn’t that much better than how other Primaries are, except for underperforming ones and Igneous Hammer as a outlier, but pair it with a teammate, the chunk damage HCs do makes them very easy choice for kills.
