The news that the original Warzone will be shutting down in September of this year has caught a lot of fans off-guard, leading them to reminisce on the good memories they had with the title.

Of course, not all of the metas back in WZ1 were healthy for the game, and the DMR Battle Rifle was one weapon that completely took over Verdansk for an extended period of time.

Effectively deleting any opponents in its path and giving them no time to fight back, the gun was must-use if you wanted to compete with your foes.

Well, Warzone 2 expert JoeWo believes they've managed to recreate the DMR for on Vondel and Al Mazrah, using the SO-14.

Ever since the Season 4 update, the SO-14 Battle Rifle has exploded in popularity thanks to the gun's devastating damage at long-range.

The gun is extremely similar to the DMR due to its blistering fire rate that allows you to spam out countless shots at your opponents.

With JoeWoe's build, you can maximise the weapon's damage while also maintaining a strong level of stability, making it easy to lock onto foes.

As the SO-14 struggles to compete at close-range, we recommend running Overkill you so you can pair the Battle Rifle with a meta SMG.

How popular is the SO-14 in Warzone 2?

According to WZRanked, the SO-14 Battle Rifle has an 11% pick rate, which puts it third in the overall popularity rankings.

As you can see, the community has realised how powerful this gun can be and its pick rate has been rising every day since Season 4 went live.

If the SO-14 isn't part of your loadout list your definitely missing out, so consider using JoeWoe's loadout to gain an advantage over your foes.
