Machine Gun
The Machine Gun (MG) fires rapid-fire hitscan shots dealing 5-7 damage per shot. Players spawn with the Machine Gun and 100 ammo in all standard gametypes. It is the default starting weapon.
Mechanics
High fire rate, low per-shot damage. Hitscan with no splash. Effective at all ranges in terms of hit registration, but low damage per shot makes it inefficient against an opponent with full health and armor. Ammo is abundant: 100 on spawn plus pickups.
Role in Play
The MG is used when the primary triad weapons are unavailable or out of ammo. It deals consistent chip damage and is effective at finishing low-HP opponents. In Clan Arena where all weapons are provided on spawn, the MG is a fallback when LG and RL ammo are depleted.
Spawning with the MG means it is always available as a last resort in any gametype.
