Overpowered Warzone LMG Loadout Banned by Pros Due to Its Effectiveness

Professional Warzone players have banned the RAAL MG JAK Protean conversion kit in Season 5 due to its overwhelming power, but players can still utilize this powerful weapon on the Urzikstan and Resurgence maps.

In Warzone Season 5, a few weapons are standout favorites. According to WZ Ranked, the STG44 ranks as the second most popular weapon with a 20 percent pick rate, while the Kar98k serves as the only close competitor for long-range engagements with an 11 percent pick rate.

During a tournament, professional players evaluated the RAAL JAK Protean Conversion Kit and banned it on the spot after discovering it can eliminate enemies in just two or three shots at distances of up to 40 meters.

Utilizing True Game Data, we analyzed the JAK Protean conversion kit against other popular long-range meta weapons. Our findings revealed that the RAAL boasts the quickest time-to-kill speed within the 35 to 50 meter range, which encompasses most gunfights.

With that in mind, let’s explore the optimal loadout for this powerful weapon.

Best RAAL MG JAK Protean Loadout in Warzone

Muzzle: Quartermaster Suppressor
Optic: Corio Eaglesye 2.5x
Ammunition: .338 Mag High Velocity
Rear Grip: STIP-40 Grip
Conversion Kit: JAK Protean Kit

Central to this loadout is the JAK Protean Kit, which enhances bullet velocity, damage range, and recoil control, albeit at the expense of mobility and headshot damage.

Although Activision did not address the Quartermaster Suppressor in the Season 5 patch notes, this attachment was included in the update. It improves overall gun kick as well as both horizontal and vertical recoil, making it popular for its minimal reduction in ADS and sprint-to-fire speeds—only a six percent nerf—compared to harsher penalties from other muzzles.

The Corio Eagleseye 2.5x is highly regarded for offering exceptional sight lines for gunfights across various distances.

Lastly, the .338 Mag High Velocity rounds enhance bullet velocity, which is especially beneficial for a slower-firing semi-auto loadout, making it effective for long-range engagements.
