Once one of the most popular assault rifles in Modern Warfare 3, it once again became one of Warzone’s best options ahead of Season 5 Reloaded. However, it was completely forgotten by the players.
Every time the Warzone developers release a new seasonal update, the battle royale meta changes. Weapons gain fans and nerfs, popular options disappear and others gain notoriety.
In recent seasons the Holger 556 has been one of these top choices. Warzone masters praise this weapon as one of the fastest-killing weapons in the world and being versatile across different game modes and playstyles. Particle for direct object
Assault Rifles were a big part of the meta in Seasons 2 and 3, but disappeared completely due to nerfs. However, it’s still a “fantastic” choice in a battle royale game. Particle for direct object
That’s what Warzone expert WhosImmortal says, who introduced Holger in his video from August 17th. He said: “The only downside is the magazine capacity. Otherwise the control is great and the damage is good. There aren’t many bullets in it, but the damage per bullet is competitive.” He mentioned that there is a “fantastic” TTK.

Of course you want to increase the magazine capacity a little, but the magazine is limited to 40 rounds. This is the only “magic wand” attachment as it allows for small adjustment if needed. The YouTuber’s use of the JAK Glassless Optic depends entirely on his preferences, but you can also use the Nydar 2023 model instead. Particle for direct object

As mentioned, Holger was one of the best options in Warzone and sat comfortably in the meta a few seasons ago.
According to current WZRanked stats, the AR is the 44th most popular weapon in the game, but that’s a far cry from its actual performance.
With Season 5 reruns just around the corner, this could be a nice boost. But we’ll have to wait and see.
