Counter Strike 2 has come out and most people are heading straight into Premiere to get their Premiere rating or playing with the new smokes grenade cameras and lineups but one of the other changes that was made is to the weapon buy menu now instead of having access to all the weapons at once you have to select five weapons from each category four in the Pistols Plus the starting pistol preference five in the mid tier and five in the rifle to complete your load out each match since most people playing go are used to having access to all the mid tiers not everyone knows how good each mid-tier is so in today's video we're going to go ahead and rank every single mid-tier weapon from D to S tier so you can find out which mid tier weapons are actually lowkey broken versus the mid-tier weapons that you probably wouldn't want to use even if they were given to you for free starting out in the D tier is the most forgotten weapon in Counter Strike the M249 this gun has a ridiculous rate of fire but an even more ridiculous recoil that basically renders it useless at medium to long range this gun also costs 5,2 $200 and gives you an incredibly slow movement speed that makes it hard to Peak people or rotate around the map what you've got here is a gun with a large ammo count and a high rate of fire that's basically half as useful as an AK for almost double to cost if someone drops you this gun they're 100% trolling and you'll pretty much only ever seen it bought by people who are up 10 Z and a half and even then most people aren't going to be equipping this gun just because you'd have to have this gun equipped before the match started knowing that you were going to Stomp the other team you'll basically never see this gun but it could be funny for a challenge if you could even get enough money to buy it up next in the D tier is the ngev and although it is better than the M249 it isn't better by a large margin this gun somehow makes you move even slower since it's a bigger lmg and it has a very unique effect in which the first couple bullets you fire are not accurate but the gun becomes more accurate as you continue to fire in a game with one hit kills to the Head from multiple rifles also one hit to the body from an OP this gun is incredibly difficult to use with any real effect since most of the time people will just kill you while you're trying to get to the accurate part of the bullets the only way to actually have consistent damage at all times with this gun is to use it at close range where you'd be better off using basically any other gun this gun is extremely fun for choke points but isn't very useful and you'll pretty much never seen it bought by anyone actually trying to win although I love this gun from the bottom of my art it still has to go as the second worst gun in the entire mid- tier C category moving on to the C tier category we first have the worst out of the usable guns in this game which is the pp bison this gun legitimately does as much damage as a Glock which means you're going to be hitting people from long range four times for less than 50 damage this gun can legitimately take 10 bullets to kill people and I would never recommend actually using it in a game the only circumstance would you want to use a gun like this is if you were going to be shooting people without head armor or people who are unarmored completely and even then the other SMGs in this game are way more effective since this gun won't even kill people by shooting them in the head at longer than medium distance this gun legitimately serves no purpose and the moment the other team is able to get real weapons and armor you won't be able to actually damage them and you'll most likely end up dying because you bought this gun whatever you do don't buy this gun unless you're seriously messing around and just trying to get a couple funny clips or go next in the C tier weapons is the saw off a gun that is almost equally as useless as the Bison except for a few Niche cases in the hostage game mode the t's will actually be the defender so you can use the saw off to hold close range angles and repel the CTS as they try and grab the hostages you can also use the shotgun to surprise opponents in close-range angles like apartments on Inferno or pushing down the vents on nuke and hiding there with the shotgun waiting for them to to come down the only issue is that typically the t's don't get to select what range they want to fight at since the saw off shotgun is basically only useful at Point Blank you're at a massive disadvantage if you ever buy this gun so I would still recommend steering clear from it unless you know you'll be able to take a close range fight somewhere in the round next we're moving on to the B tier which is the guns that aren't a complete waste of space to use in your actual ranked inventories now the MP5 has decent stats you can move and shoot with it you get $600 per kill it's got a suppressor which makes the gunshots hard to hear and The Recoil isn't too difficult to control the downside of this gun is it doesn't do a lot of damage the fire rate is lower than other SMGs in its class and it is a bit expensive coming in at $1,500 this gun doesn't have any inherent flaws but it is one of the weaker SMGs in the game one of the only benefits to it is that it's better than the pp bison and that's basically it although this gun isn't actually bad in any regard it's still not a gun that you want to be actively buying and you'll probably find yourself gravitating toward the other SMGs in the game as the MP5 just doesn't have any distinct trait that makes it stand out over others and since the MP5 is the lowest gun in the B tier it shouldn't surprise anyone that the MP7 is right there next to it the MP7 is almost identical to the MP5 in stats it's a little bit more accurate a little bit easier to control the recoil and it does function better than the MP 5 even though it lacks a suppressor that being said this gun also cost $1,500 and you are committing a decent amount of money into an SMG to buy it while still also not having any of the best-in-class features of an SMG there are other guns that are cheaper and more effective than the MP7 while also being less of an economical commitment at the end of the day I really like the MP7 and I think if you're going to use the MP5 or the MP7 you should use the MP7 but that doesn't go far enough to just ify buying this gun even once a game and the last gun that's going in the B tier in this video is going to be the Nova the Nova is definitely one of my favorite weapons in the game and I think is extremely fun to use it costs $1,050 and for that price you're able to one-hot people at close range with a shotgun that pays $900 per kill this makes it extremely economically safe to buy on the CT side especially if you're on a double save as you can kill an opponent and then grab their gun or kill an opponent and have a teammate grab their gun later on the biggest downside is that this shotgun doesn't do a whole lot of damage actually being one of the weaker shotguns but it has more range than the saw off and can be bought on CT which allows it to be a very good weapon if you need a cheap gun that's able to get kills at close range while also having very low risk the only problem with this gun is its actual stopping power as it isn't the best gun for actually killing people you have to be pretty precise in order to get the actual one shot kill but if you can pull this gun off it does pay for itself and it will piss off the other team which is always really fun to see in your games still with all its upsides I could only ever give it a b tier as it isn't one of the best shotguns in the game and it still lacks consistent stopping power to put it any higher on this list coming up next is a gun that I think every new player loves and every old player hates getting killed by and that's the P90 this gun does have the reputation of being a noob gun but if you deep dive a little closer it actually does have really good stats for what it is the P90 has an extremely high rate fire good damage and good running speed with a great running accuracy which basically allows you to kill people full Sprint while only having to worry about your own evasiveness the biggest problem with this gun is that unlike all the other SMGs in the game you only get paid out $300 per kill and it costs $2,350 which is a major commitment for another SMG that doesn't have one- shot headshot capabilities against armored opponents still this gun does have a reputation for being so easy even new players can use it to get kills and I think even experienced players underrate how good this gun can be for surprising opponents who may be expecting you to stop moving when you shoot although you should never buy this gun while your team is on a fall by you can buy this gun if you have a little bit of extra cash while the rest of your team EOS to massively surprise the other team with the amount of Firepower you possess although this gun has a lot of upsides the price and the kill reward bar it from being any higher on this list and although this gun has a reputation for being extremely Noob friendly if you ever buy this in your games you'll find it to be surprisingly effective even against good players the next gun in the a tier is the gun that most people probably associate with SMGs and Counter Strike which is the UMP 45 the UMP basically has every stat at either the best or second best in class and it's a great SMG for taking firefights at medium to close range this gun has a moderate rate of fire and an easy to control recoil pattern which allows you to take gunfights at medium range while also dealing out serious damage this gun can do 80 damage to a head shot and can even be a two- shot kill at close ranges while still dropping down to a four-shot kill with a head shot against armored opponents at medium ranges this SMG doesn't do any one thing particular really great but it's a great all-arounder weapon while also only being $1,200 and also paying out the full kill reward of $600 just like the other SMGs barring the P90 even though this gun has great Firepower it does struggle at close range where the other SMGs are either cheaper or just flat out better this gun is probably the best weapon for medium range outside of the MP7 but due to the fact that most people are buying SMGs to take close range engag engagements it does have a few key downsides that keep people buying other weapons more frequently although this gun doesn't do anything particularly wrong it seems to be outclassed by other guns in the same category and so it can't move any higher than this spot in the a tier the next gun that's going to land itself in the a tier is actually the Mac 10 which gets here for a couple specific reasons number one this gun is decently accurate while moving allowing you to move and shoot like you would with the P90 but at less than half the cost this gun also gives you the full $600 kill value while also being one of the cheapest weapons in class at only $1,050 the Mac 10 also has a good fire rate which allows you to dominate people at close range and all of this combines for a gun that makes for a really good entry tool that you can run in gun with and also Farm kill reward this gun basically poses no commitment as you can die with it and still have enough money to buy next round if you are on a decent loss streak and it also allows you to get one kill and pay off over half the cost of the weapon basically allowing yourself to be traded out and still have enough money for next round if you buy this gun you'll often find yourself getting traded out with one kill but even if you die after one kill and lose you'll still have enough money to buy the following Round And if you win you might be the person who gives your team the opening pick by using the mobility that this gun allows to get the first kill and open the site for your team and coming into the S TI are three guns every single person should have equipped no matter what map they're playing because they're just useful in every single game starting out with the S tier is the mag 7 this gun hits ridiculously hard you're are going to be seeing yourself killing people at medium range with a shotgun that still gives you $900 while only costing ,300 this gun pays for itself with one kill but you'll easily be able to get multiple kills if you shoot and duct into cover and then pop back out for follow-up shots this gun is extremely obnoxious to be killed by but unlike the Nova it's a lot more lethal and the one shot range is extended giving you easy one shot kills on tons of angles around important choke points although the gun is a pump action it is one of the best guns in all of Counterstrike and if you don't have this equipped you're going to be seriously missing out on a weapon that could help you win tons of your games and farm the economy coming up next is a second best gun in all of the mid tiers is the auto shotgun which is a gun that is legitimately broken This Gun For some reason doesn't have a capped range allowing you to kill people from actual long range with a shotgun this gun will massively surprise people with rifles as you're able to fight them with a shotgun from long range while still getting the $900 kill reward a big downside to this gun is that it costs $2,000 so if you do die without a kill you are going to be out a decent amount of money money but if you do get even one kill half of the gun is paid for and you still have a highly lethal shotgun that's capable of wiping out entire teams in choke points this gun is incredibly easy to abuse on CT where you're able to get people by surprise who are coming around corners but even on T side you can find yourself using the shotgun to actually entry as it does clear out close range angles with ease although this gun only has a medium fire rate The lethality of this gun allows anyone who's skilled at hitting their shots to kill people at medium to long distances while also farming money this gun is not only one of the best guns in the mid tier but it is one of the most legitimately broken weapons still in Counterstrike if you haven't used it yet you should definitely use it now because honestly this gun deserves a Nerf and will probably be fixed somewhere in the future and lastly rounding out the S tier for the best mid-range gun in all of Counter-Strike Global offenses is none other than the MP9 if you've been playing playing this game for a while you know that this gun is absolutely busted and if you're just getting back into Counter Strike you need to be abusing this gun every Pro Player is using this gun to win EOS on counter Terrace and the amount of people who are crutching this gun on CT side when they're down in the economy is ridiculous this gun has an insane rate of fire and The Recoil only kicks in around five bullets into the spray allowing you to burst people down at medium range while collecting $600 for the kill this gun fires ridiculously fast and can wipe people out around corners with rifles faster than they can even see it coming since this gun is so good at bursting you can also use it at medium range to absolutely wipe people out faster than they can line up head shot and at close range this gun just eliminates people who are trying to come around corners on you especially if one of the shots is a head shot the MP9 is one of the most abused guns in the entire game at all levels and if you're not using this gun you might be legitimately throwing as this is probably one of the top five weapons in the entire game not even the mid-tier category if you want to start winning your defensive hals you got to start using the MP9 as there's no gun that's as cheap while also being as effective this is one of those guns that you should be buying every single game and if you're not you need to start finding a way to utilize this gun in order to win more of your games so now that the list is out of the way this is what I recommend equipping on both sides if you did like this video please consider giving it a like and subscribing as I am going to be uploading more Counter-Strike 2 content and I'll see you in the next video
