S1897 Balance Changes

Extremely effective at close and mid range, so missed shots get a little more costly.

Tier High Tier
Direction Nerfs
Proposed changes 1 · 1 nerf

Balance Philosophy

For every weapon between A and S tier, apply one nerf to one aspect of it so it's not completely dominant on the battlefield.

Proposed Changes

Each entry lists the move or ability affected, the adjustment itself, and — where the analysis states one — the problem it is meant to solve and the reasoning behind it.

  1. Zero Range (Maximum)

    Nerf
    Proposed adjustment
    Maximum zero range reduced from 80 to 70m.
    Current issue
    The S1897 can be extremely effective at close and mid range.
    Reason
    Makes missed shots more costly without removing its close-range usefulness.
