Strong Sides
CZ-75a is now in a difficult position. Obviosuly, for T-side you should replace it with TEC-9, as it’s far more superior, and for CTs you can take P250 instead. But it seems that CZ has its own niche, if you know it well enough. To find it, you need to look at the strengths:
- High Damage. CZ-75a is capable of dealing significant damage in a short time. At a distance of up to 10 meters, it’s not inferior in damage per second to most weapons in CS2.
- Armor-piercing. CZ has good armor-piercing stats, namely 77.65%, which is higher than most SMGs and pistols, but lower than Deagle, Tec-9 and Five-SeveN.
- Price. CZ-75a is the cheapest automatic weapon in Counter-Strike 2. Its closest competitor costs twice as much.
Giving it a thought, you can clearly understand what CZ-75a’s niche is: it’s a force-round weapon. Buy, wait in ambush (read: camp) and burst it at point-blank range. Surely, there are other tactical options, though.
Weak Sides
Still, CZ has more disadvantages than advantages. Starting with a considerable recoil: your first five bullets land well, but the subsequent ones go to the right and up, almost uncontrollable. Second, it has a small ammunition supply: 12 bullets in the magazine and another 12 in stock, which is very little. Third, slow reloading and changing weapons. It takes almost two seconds to pull it out, and almost three to reload! Even AK-47 is quicker in this regard.
Let’s pay attention to one more aspect: to kill an armored enemy you need at least five hits. From 12-meters it’s already six. Therefore, CZ-75a is only suitable for short ranges. This fact is also confirmed by weapon’s low accuracy. At a distance of over 12 meters, you can easily miss a headshot!
How To Play With CZ75-A?
CZ-75a doesn’t have many use cases. You’ve almost no point in buying it in attack because Tec-9 is more accurate, its magazine is way larger, and you can spam without any problems. Still, CZ has its place in defence. Just consider it a slightly improved version of P250.
Thanks to the high rate of fire and good accuracy of the first shots, the best scenario for using CZ-75a looks like this:
- Get close to your opponent (10m or closer)
- Aim to the head
- Shoot it!
- Frag with a couple of bullets
- Take your enemy’s weapon and use it
This is an effective but not the only option. You can consider two more scenarios. CZ75-A is a great backup weapon for a sniper since it’s a formidable weapon at close range. Just always keep in mind that you will spend a lot of time taking it out (2 secs), but if a sniper chooses the right position, then they have the time to get it and take overtake the opponent.
The second idea is to purchase it by several players at once. In this case, your team ambushes are super effective and dangerous yet they require chemistry and teamplay. At short range, multiple players with CZ-75a can effectively enter almost any plant.
