You can no longer use the AS-VAL in Warzone because the original version of the game was shut down. However, this guide will be updated and will come in handy if the AS-VAL ever returns.
The AS-VAL made its way into Call of Duty Warzone during Season 6 of Modern Warfare, and many fans wished it arrived sooner due to how good it was.
While it was classified as an assault rifle, it fired more like a submachine gun. As a trade off for its crazy rate of fire, it did come with a tiny standard magazine, making it less effective in bigger game modes like trios and quads but an absolute menace in solos and duos.
Sadly, the original Warzone is no more, so you can no longer enjoy the AS-VAL in a battle royale setting. But here you can see which build was the best back in the day and reminisce. To see what’s top of the charts right now in the new game, consult our Warzone meta and best Warzone guns guides.
Best AS-VAL Warzone loadout
Here’s our favorite AS-VAL Warzone loadout:
- VLK 200m OSA barrel
- VLK Strelok stock
- 30-round mags
- Strippled rear grip tape
- Sleight of Hand perk
This no-frills AS-VAL Warzone loadout will get your frying enemies in no time. It’s built for efficiency, accuracy, and speed, hence why there’s no scope and it has a short barrel.
The combination of the barrel, stock, and grip tape gives players an added boost of accuracy, while upping the range and control of the weapon. The base damage of the gun isn’t changed with this setup, but it still shreds so we wouldn’t worry about that.
We’ve paired this gun up with the Sleight of Hand perk because the magazine capacity is pretty small. In tense firefights where you’re popping shots off left, right, and center, you’re going to go through mags fast – and the perk is there to get you back and firing as quickly as possible.
Of course, if you’re looking for something to find a bit more range, we’d ditch the rear grip for an optic. However, it’s worth remembering this gun doesn’t really do long distances – you’re going to want a sniper rifle for that.
That’s it for our recommended AS-VAL Warzone loadout. The AS-VAL is a force to be reckoned with in Warzone, and this build makes it even deadlier.
