The MX9: Warzone's Hidden Powerhouse SMG and Its Surprising Trade-off
Unveiling a hidden gem in Warzone, a remarkable off-meta SMG with impressive time-to-kill capabilities, but a notable drawback awaits.
Warzone has seen a surge of SMGs that can rival even the best of the best in recent times, PDSW 528, Fennec and the powerful ISO 45. These guns induce terror in the midst of battle, cutting out enemies with their lightning-fast speed and unparalleled bullet velocity up close. But there's a catch that players need to be aware of, a weapon that can eclipse them all. Blazing a path of destruction and decimation, this extraordinary find can only be described as the ultimate SMG.
Power of the MX9 SMG
Players have taken a unique approach with their choice of loadout in Warzone, deviating from the conventional weapons to those less often used. The MX9, one of the latter options, may warrant the attention of those searching for alternatives - though don’t be fooled, it does come with a major drawback.
Those that have chosen to dabble in SMGs are reaping the rewards of its efficient close-range power, skillfully repurposing some assault rifles to make the most of it.
Best MX9 loadout for Warzone 2 Season 4
The MX9 was recently spotlighted by Warzone expert WhosImmortal in his video on July 5th. He discussed the best SMGs in the current meta and shed light on the MX9's unique qualities.
“There’s an asterisk here, the MX9 is great right now… in solos!” exclaimed the YouTuber. He emphasized that its magazine size limits its potential. “The MX9 has one of the best TTKs out of the entire SMG category right now, and it’s also very easy to use and it’s very mobile, very aggressive.”
To compensate for its small magazine, a recommended loadout includes attachments that increase capacity. Yet, even with these modifications, the MX9's magazine holds only 32 bullets, forcing players to make every shot count.
The loadout suggested by WhosImmortal consists of the following components:
- Barrel: 16.5' Bruen S901
- Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
- Magazine: 32-round Mag
- Rear Grip: Bruen Q900 Grip
- Comb: FTAC C11 Riser

The MX9 ranks as an unorthodox choice, a lagging 49th in popularity in WZRanked's Season 4 data with a meagre 0.2% pick rate. Despite this, there is a chance it may gain more traction if solos become more significant in the playlists in the future. However, we must remain abidingly patient until that time in order to witness what occurs.
