Warzone Season 2 Reloaded SMG Tier List

Our Warzone Season 2 Reloaded SMG tier list is here to break down which of the guns are the best to use in Caldera and Rebirth Island with the launch of Raven Software's latest major update.

With the Season 2 Reloaded patch, not only did we get the new Armaguerra 43, but we also saw some changes made to a handful of recently relevant options in the weapon class. As such, here is how the SMGs stack up in Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded.

Warzone Season Two Reloaded SMG Rankings

S Tier

• Owen Gun
• Type 100
• LAPA
• Welgun
• MP-40
• OTs 9

In the S Tier are six SMGs that have established themselves as ahead of the rest of the pack. While the MP-40 remains the most popular weapon to use across Warzone and Vanguard at the moment, those who take the time to main the Owen Gun and Type 100 might find themselves having even more success. Although Raven did make the Welgun harder to use since it was such a devastating weapon, it's still one of the better options in the game. Meanwhile, the LAPA and OTs 9 have still translated to high K/D ratios for those using them so feel free to keep doing so.

A Tier

• Armaguerra 43
• CX-9
• MP5 (BOCW)
• PPSh-41 (VG)
• MAC-10
• Sten

In A Tier are six SMGs that are top tier viable and remain generally very balanced to use in Warzone. Essentially, these options are sitting right outside of the main meta, but are still able to get the job done and allow you to be competitive. While the all-new Armaguerra 43 remains here for now as a very viable option, the Sten will still be just solid despite getting some buffs to its magazine attachment offerings.

B Tier

• MP5 (MW)
• Milano 821
• Bullfrog
• PPSh-41 (BOCW)
• TEC-9
• MP7
• M1912
• LC10
• AK-74u
• AUG (MW)
• Fennec

In the B Tier are a handful of SMGs that remain solid but could still use a slight buff in order for more players to seriously consider using them. These options have a proven track record of being decent, but will likely be nothing to write home about throughout the new Warzone Pacific era.

C Tier

• Uzi
• PP19 Bizon
• ISO
• P90
• Nail Gun

In C Tier are five options that are simply mediocre and definitely need a buff in Warzone. An unfortunate, but telling sign of the times is that even in the new Warzone Pacific era, all of these guns as well as the ones below it, save for the Nail Gun, are all from Modern Warfare.

D Tier

• KSP 45
• Striker 45

Lastly, in D Tier are two SMGs that have been behind in the pack for far too long. Don't bother using them as they truly need major buffs in order to be viable.
