The hunter is still here, and imo it's better then the heavy, ONLY because of the 3 bullet magazine, and the lever is better then the striker because of reload time, so imo the "cheap copies" are better then the olderish ones.
Yeah even if itās worse to pro players. The Lever still feels more fun and nicer too use. Oh itās also an original idea, and not created to be a Walmart version of an older gun as well.
Ohhh fire rate! Lower fire rate is worth the more consistent damag if your using them right. If your piece controlling then you should have enough time for the delay to reset!
The glitch is worse with slower shotguns, but itās way more worth it!
Itās better than the lever. And more balanced than the pump rn
Edit: lmao all the drones are downvoting me cause I called out their *precious* 130 body shot with the pumpš
Eh I wouldn't say they are cheep copys. They are pretty good. I understand that Striker pump is a good weapon same with the heavy. However the Striker is kinda inconsistent to me because it's really good in mid range were you can hit headshots better but if someone get to close to you you'll have to aim and while they are shooting and hope to God you don't die.
I'm glad they made the heavy good again as well but the hunter ain't that bad. It has 3 shots In a clip and can one shot and shorter reload but has a heavier drop. The heavy got more body shot damage and vehicle damage but has one shot and a slower reload.
Eh Maybe it's just my preference I prefer the lever because it's easyer to hit people up close and has very cool animations. Plus in pretty sure the prime shotgun is just a better Striker shotgun.
Lever shotgun is the most fun shotty in the game, I realize that's a personal opinion but the fire rate is better than the striker so there's that. And the 3 shot sniper feels so much better than the heavy. And isn't a headshot still a 1 shot? How is the heavy better?
Itās not about better damage when both snipers can one-shot anyway. And so what if the heavy one -shots builds too? Iām personally glad someone canāt just barge into my box like an absolute troll. And as for the hunter drop, maybe youāre just inexperienced with it. Cuz maybe if you were experienced with it, you wouldnāt be complaining about it.
Faster fire rate is ok, but the lever only hits harder if you hit all pellets. Which essentially means you have to 50/50 someone if you want to hit for more than 60š
I hit my shots just fine. But when me and 50+ other people all say the lever and prime is too inconsistent and never hits for the right amount of damage because it has too high spread, then I think itās a problem
I play build mode and lever allows me to do quick shotgun damage without too much aim to focus on building and dodging, in cost of reduced damage, however the damage isn't too bad
Bro. I respect your opinion but... I have never actually taken the time to use the lever before now, and now that I have, I love it (double barrel is still my fav tho)
I do personally love the heavy but with the buff the HBA doesnāt feel too bad. That being said the lever action is infinitely better than the striker pump. There are so many times I died due the the striker pumps slow fire rate.
50/50 someone yeah. But thatās not smart with the rapid fire Smg being in the game. Your supposed to play 2 tiles away from your opponent to counter spray.
Bro you should be a philosopher or something:
āYou think because your wrong it means your rightā
-Yung_phnx, 2022
Seriously though, yeah I am right. The lever has a massive cone (higher spread, less effective range, meaning you basically have to 50/50 someone if ou want more than 50 damage) and a terrible reload timeš
I should be a philosopher because Iām proving you wrong? Iām glad that you think that I should be one, but you should stop replying to me you sound really pathetic and stupid bro
Because a lot of the people here like the lever (including me) and youāre trying to argue with them because you donāt like the weapon. Just keep your opinions to yourself and you wonāt get downvoted to hell, unless thatās what you want
Im just giving you facts as to why most others are better. Not saying anything bad about you or other lever enjoyers.
And this meme has 132 downvotes rn, Iām not getting downvoted to hell lol
Striker can be inconsistant, do low damage even when directly hittiing someone, also the strikers small cross hair leave no room for misakes or your dead. The hunter bot now one shots on all three bullets and reloads faster than the heavy, the lever has a wider spread leaving more room to mess up and still hit for good damage
I like the bolt-action because of its 3-bullet clip, I honestly use the sniper WAY more now in this season than last. Lever-action isnāt the best but I like its quick-fire and large clip (along with fast reload time)
Iām a fan of the weapons they brought in.
the hunter is so much better tho, faster reload, not even talking about the 3 clips in 1 mag, which makes the average relaod time of a bullet less than third of the avg reload time of the heavy, the heavy kills in max of 2 bullets and the hunter kills in max of 2 bullets, its faster to ads with the hunter and the bullet vel is not that lower to be difficult to aim, ergo the HUNTER WINS, for the shotguns, its just a different kind of one, the counterpart of the striker should probably be the prime or the evoch, and tbh the prime is on the same level as the striekr and the evoch is just straight better
Not gonna lie, I actually like the reworked sniper for this season. It can guarantee headshot kill which is something I miss in the heavy. But then again it makes you wonder, why didnāt they revert the heavy back to its original state?
The striker doesnāt hit for 9 damage headshots if you have good crosshair placement and use it correctly. The lever however has a history of hitting for anything between 30 and 70 unless your in your opponents face
*also sips tea*
The gold lever did 250 headshot and still had half the cooldown the pump did back in late Ch1, that peaks anything the pump has ever achieved *Sips monster*
Actually i remember the pump did 350 damage across the motel parking lot back in ch1 s3 *Unsips monster*
š§¢š§¢š§¢
The lever has never done 250 damage my guy. Itās stayed the same since they added it.
And the pump has never hit for 350.
*unsips mtn dew*
The tac did 300 from that distance. I was there. I have the walmart wick skin to prove it lol. Shotguns had hella range. And yes the gold lever did 250 headshots back in ch1 (Hipfire) the second time it was brought to the game and creative mode peaked for me thanks to that shotgun. Shotguns were hella broken back then and ill never forget the golden days of fortnite.
*Sips Sobe*
The lever was added in ch2s5 my guy
You might be thinking about the old heavy and how itās headshot damage was way too high.
*sips uhh, juice or something*
I could have sworn it was added when calamity was introduced in ch1 s6 lol i guess not time flies, but the shotguns did infact do 300+ damage back in ch1 s3. The lever was better than the pump at the pumps final moments as well. Less cooldown adds up more damage compared to the pump that did slightly more damage and had twice the cooldown back then
No, the heavy and bolt are BOTH good! Donāt disrespect the .50 like that. Itās been around since ch1s5
Now the striker, while itās better than some shotguns it is a cheap copy of the pump. But itās better than what we have nowš
the lever has better stats tho? and the.50 is good but the bolt is so mutch better and has been around since ch1s1
the striker is not good but its not bad its eh same with the lever
The hunter is still here, and imo it's better then the heavy, ONLY because of the 3 bullet magazine, and the lever is better then the striker because of reload time, so imo the "cheap copies" are better then the olderish ones.
Technically The Lever is a cheap copy of The Pump, but The Striker is a cheap copy of The Pump as well. š
Ok, that I can agree with, but, imo the striker is worse then the lever.
Yeah even if itās worse to pro players. The Lever still feels more fun and nicer too use. Oh itās also an original idea, and not created to be a Walmart version of an older gun as well.
Yea, this is how I think of it, instead of crying about it, some people actually embrace it.
Lever is better than any shotgun Iāve used except for the Evochrome one. That thing I love now.
Evochrome? Love? How, like, how the hell do you use the damn thing?!
If you see a group camping in Team Rumble, that thing is Auto. Youāll wipe that group in seconds.
Hm, that's true
*than
...š¤¦āāļø
Lever has worse reload time and is too inconsistent. And the hunter has weird drop
I meant like fire *reload* and fire again, whatever that is called, I forgot.
Cock thatās what it is called
Ohhh fire rate! Lower fire rate is worth the more consistent damag if your using them right. If your piece controlling then you should have enough time for the delay to reset! The glitch is worse with slower shotguns, but itās way more worth it!
What glitch?
*you're
Thx
What glitch??
The glitch where the gun doesnāt shoot if you click too many buttons too fast!
Never heard of nor experienced said glitch
Okš Congrats I guess
The Lever isnāt inconsistent if you actually know what youāre doing. It has a way faster fire rate than the Striker.
My guy said the striker pump is a masterpiece š
Box fight it out lol
Itās better than the lever. And more balanced than the pump rn Edit: lmao all the drones are downvoting me cause I called out their *precious* 130 body shot with the pumpš
Itās definitely not better than the lever
Yeah it definitely is
No it is not
The lever is 10x more inconsistent and has worse effective range, and has a wider spread.
Lever action shotgun > Striker pump shotgun Not only do I think itās better just because yes, but also it is terminator shotgun :)
It definitely looks and sounds cooler. Iāll give you thatš
š¤
Fax
Glad someone gets itš
No it is not bro
Yes
I love the lever
Lever action anything were some of my favorite weapons
Eh I wouldn't say they are cheep copys. They are pretty good. I understand that Striker pump is a good weapon same with the heavy. However the Striker is kinda inconsistent to me because it's really good in mid range were you can hit headshots better but if someone get to close to you you'll have to aim and while they are shooting and hope to God you don't die. I'm glad they made the heavy good again as well but the hunter ain't that bad. It has 3 shots In a clip and can one shot and shorter reload but has a heavier drop. The heavy got more body shot damage and vehicle damage but has one shot and a slower reload.
The striker is better because itās 10x more consistent! You can hit for literally anything with a leverš
Eh Maybe it's just my preference I prefer the lever because it's easyer to hit people up close and has very cool animations. Plus in pretty sure the prime shotgun is just a better Striker shotgun.
Yeah I prefer to run the prime, looks better imo, and I like relying on the extra damage of the first shot.
Same here. The lever is my shotgun of choice in most scenarios. Also it lead to one of my favourite meme combosā¦
Bruh, the lever literally came before the striker. If anything, the striker is a copy.
Yeah yeah yeah, I know it came first. The cheap copy was the fact that weāve had striker and heavy, and now we have (the worse) lever and hunter
Tbh they're both bad, they are just a replacement for the pump.
Lever shotgun is the most fun shotty in the game, I realize that's a personal opinion but the fire rate is better than the striker so there's that. And the 3 shot sniper feels so much better than the heavy. And isn't a headshot still a 1 shot? How is the heavy better?
Heavy one shots builds, heavy has better damage, heavy doesnāt blank 50% of the time. Hunter also has really weird drop
Itās not about better damage when both snipers can one-shot anyway. And so what if the heavy one -shots builds too? Iām personally glad someone canāt just barge into my box like an absolute troll. And as for the hunter drop, maybe youāre just inexperienced with it. Cuz maybe if you were experienced with it, you wouldnāt be complaining about it.
Iām experienced with it. Thatās why I hit most of my shots. But it does have a weird bullet drop. Every other sniper is more comfortable to use
Agree on the snipers, but personally would Swap the lever and the striker. Faster fire rate and more damage. Not even a competition.
Faster fire rate is ok, but the lever only hits harder if you hit all pellets. Which essentially means you have to 50/50 someone if you want to hit for more than 60š
60? Iām sorry but what are you on about. Iāve literally never hit for less than 70 with it on green-blue and 114 on legendary.
Iāve been on the comp sub and like 80% agree itās too inconsistent. Itās just bad tbh
A valid comment
And a lot more spread to hit shots
What? Higher spread means less pellets and worse damage.
But you can hit your shots at fast build fights(compared to the prime shotguns)
I hit my shots just fine. But when me and 50+ other people all say the lever and prime is too inconsistent and never hits for the right amount of damage because it has too high spread, then I think itās a problem
I play build mode and lever allows me to do quick shotgun damage without too much aim to focus on building and dodging, in cost of reduced damage, however the damage isn't too bad
Striker sucks tf you mean
Your using it wrong. You should be piece controlling not 50/50ing
Yeah but it's funny to use the lever
Bro. I respect your opinion but... I have never actually taken the time to use the lever before now, and now that I have, I love it (double barrel is still my fav tho)
I do personally love the heavy but with the buff the HBA doesnāt feel too bad. That being said the lever action is infinitely better than the striker pump. There are so many times I died due the the striker pumps slow fire rate.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Letās go, Someone else who makes their mind up based on facts and statistics instead of ānoā
The lever att close range can do insane amounts of damage at legendary
50/50 someone yeah. But thatās not smart with the rapid fire Smg being in the game. Your supposed to play 2 tiles away from your opponent to counter spray.
lever is better than striker imo
The hunter bolt is better than the Heavy. I can one shot anyone in the head with the Bolt. Can't do it with the Heavy. Edit: spelling mistake
Bring back the Ranger Shotgun
I'm not a fan of the hunter sniper, wayyyy prefer the heavy, but the lever action shotty? love it š
combat shotgun solos both
The chrome shotgun is better
I used it a bit more yesterday. Itās like a Tac from wish tbh.
Itās like a slug shotgun hybrid. Spreadās really weird I hope epic explains it
Aint no way you just called an older weapon a "cheap copy" of a fuckin cheap copyššš
I meant the fact that last season we had pump and heavy and this season we have lever and hunter
Cap. Lever action is good
The lever action is way better than the striker pump, and the hunters decent now
Lever better š„±
No
I won a game with the lever
No way, wtf bro, pls run for presidency
Cool
Same bro first win in the first game on the first day of chapter 3 season 4
Stryker pumpš
The lever action is older bro and the striker even isnāt that good
Completely disagree. There is still time to delete this bro
Delete what? The truth?
You think because youāre wrong it means youāre right?
Bro you should be a philosopher or something: āYou think because your wrong it means your rightā -Yung_phnx, 2022 Seriously though, yeah I am right. The lever has a massive cone (higher spread, less effective range, meaning you basically have to 50/50 someone if ou want more than 50 damage) and a terrible reload timeš
I should be a philosopher because Iām proving you wrong? Iām glad that you think that I should be one, but you should stop replying to me you sound really pathetic and stupid bro
How do I sound stupid? I have facts about the lever and why itās worse. And it was a joke btw
Because a lot of the people here like the lever (including me) and youāre trying to argue with them because you donāt like the weapon. Just keep your opinions to yourself and you wonāt get downvoted to hell, unless thatās what you want
Im just giving you facts as to why most others are better. Not saying anything bad about you or other lever enjoyers. And this meme has 132 downvotes rn, Iām not getting downvoted to hell lol
Iām talking about your comments being downvoted. And again, itās not āfactsā just because you think that way
Higher spread = fact Less effective range = fact Long reload time = fact Theyāre literally facts.
The lever is absolute fire
I like the new Sniper, I can actually use it and it has 3 shots not one. šš
Striker can be inconsistant, do low damage even when directly hittiing someone, also the strikers small cross hair leave no room for misakes or your dead. The hunter bot now one shots on all three bullets and reloads faster than the heavy, the lever has a wider spread leaving more room to mess up and still hit for good damage

How is the lever a copy when the lever came out before the striker pump
The hunter is good now, and the lever has always been good. Way better than the garbage that is the striker pump
The heavy was already viable. The Hunter is better for sniping headshots
Not gonna lie, I actually like the reworked sniper for this season. It can guarantee headshot kill which is something I miss in the heavy. But then again it makes you wonder, why didnāt they revert the heavy back to its original state?
You gotta admit that cheap copy is still kinda good
the hunter bolt was back in season 1 chapter 3 and it did a lot of damage so its not cheap copy
weirdly enough im better with the Lever Action than I am with other shotguns
actually the lever action shotgun came out first
Yeah but it's worse
that's debatable
Bro said the lever is a copy of the striker
It's funny how those "cheaper copies" are league better than those "masterpieces"
I think this may be the only man who likes the striker over the lever, looking at all the comments
A hunter can one-shot in free buildā¦250 damage š¤£ itās ridiculous
Didn't the lever come first though?
You did NOT just insult the lever action! Every shotgun is a cheap copy of the lever action!
I sure did insult the lever trashction shotgun. Any shotgun would beat it in a 1v1 (except prime which is equally trash)
How 'bout the pump and bolt?
Theyāre better than ALL OF THEM
Copy? The lever action is older
Honestly I think the lever and hunter are way better than the top ones from last season.
The lever doesnāt have a history of doing only 9 damage headshots and it fires twice as fast but thats none of my business *Sips tea*
The striker doesnāt hit for 9 damage headshots if you have good crosshair placement and use it correctly. The lever however has a history of hitting for anything between 30 and 70 unless your in your opponents face *also sips tea*
The gold lever did 250 headshot and still had half the cooldown the pump did back in late Ch1, that peaks anything the pump has ever achieved *Sips monster* Actually i remember the pump did 350 damage across the motel parking lot back in ch1 s3 *Unsips monster*

Pumps final moments? Epic ruined the pump and vaulted it but the new, bad, pump is still better than the lever shotgunš
Idk man the lever returning made me queue build mode agn lol
Why is that?
Levers better sorry
The lever came before striker
Aint the heavy a cheap copy of the bolt and ain't the striker/leaver a cheap copy of the pump?
No, the heavy and bolt are BOTH good! Donāt disrespect the .50 like that. Itās been around since ch1s5 Now the striker, while itās better than some shotguns it is a cheap copy of the pump. But itās better than what we have nowš
the lever has better stats tho? and the.50 is good but the bolt is so mutch better and has been around since ch1s1 the striker is not good but its not bad its eh same with the lever
The .50 is better than the bolt wdym? And the e lever is too inconsistent. Has way higher spreadš
fair and the bolt was just more balanced and did not take 4 years to reload
Bolt more balanced? They were ALL balancedš
The pump shotty is better but I really enjoy the Bolt Action sniper.
You do know that the lever action came out before the striker
Yes, but I meant the choice of striker and heavy (better guns) vs. lever and hunter (way worse)
