Call of Duty: Warzone’s new Sykov pistol has gotten a predictable nerf
As we noted last week, the new Sykov pistol in Call of Duty: Warzone instantly changed the multiplayer game’s meta when it arrived. With the Akimbo perk equipped and some high capacity magazines, the Sykov becomes a fire hydrant of death, and so it’s little surprise to see that Raven is starting this week off by dialling it back a couple notches with a nerf.
The latest patch for Call of Duty: Warzone includes several nerfs to the Sykov’s attachments. Specifically, there’s now an increased hip spread when using the Sorokin 140mm Auto, movement speed is reduced by 5% when using Akimbo, and the 80-round drum mags now add both a 5% increase to movement speed and a 7% reduction in movement speed while aiming down sights. Further, if you equip the Sykov with both the Sorokin 140mm Auto and the 80 Round Drums, the Sykov’s total damage is reduced by 25%.
