Description
The Scar is an Automatic Assault Rifle chambered for the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge.

It is the weapon equipped by default.

The Scar has an in-game fire rate of 342 RPM. Its low rate of fire will allow you to stay in the fight for a longer period of time.

The Scar has a magazine capacity of 30 bullets. It requires 4 shots to the head in order to eliminate a player with a potential to eliminate up to 7 players in one magazine.

It has a reload speed of 2.52 seconds

The Scar has a slow bullet speed.

Common Mistakes
Most people assume that just because this weapon is the default one, it's terrible. Don't underestimate its power.

Prior to the [M1+Scar Update!] on 8th August 2021, the Scar had a very tight spread. This rifle was essentially a laser gun.

Techniques
Not really much to say. Even beginners don't struggle with this weapon.

The Scar performs great in all ranges of combat. From point-blank to across the map, this weapon is efficient at taking down targets with ease.

The Scar works best as a support/frontline role in a Team Deathmatch game.

Keep in mind that its spread is noticeable. Try to fire in short bursts and aim for the head to take advantage of its deadly 64 headshot damage.

No matter what camera you use (1st person, 3rd person unlocked, 3rd person locked), the Scar should be able to fit your playstyle nicely.

Counters
When you encounter a Scar user, you are pretty much done for unless the enemy is unskilled or new. Players with decent aim can still put you in the ground using the Scar.

You can try to dodge or take cover when dueling with a Scar player. Gain a height advantage over them so that their head is fully exposed.

Since the Scar's bullet speed isn't great, Scar users have to aim much further away from their targets to compensate for it. You can try to long-range Scar players using a sniper or single-shot rifles.

Pros

 * Decent damage
 * Very accurate
 * Decent reload speed (2.52s)

Cons

 * Slow bullet speed
 * Low fire rate of 342 RPM

Stigmas/Social Backlash
The Scar had gained a notorious reputation in the Weaponry community prior to the [M1 + SCAR Update] on 8th August 2021 with many highly-skilled players abusing its high accuracy.

This has prompted Headstackk to nerf the Scar as part of that update. Increasing its spread.

As of now, mostly new players use the Scar as it allows them to get used to Weaponry and its gameplay mechanics.

A player using the Scar can mean 2 things:


 * They're skilled and know how to use this weapon (10%)
 * They're new and don't know how to change this weapon (90%)

Statistically, this gun is near-perfect which essentially makes this a "brain-dead" weapon from a critical standpoint.

Trivia

 * The Scar's appearance closely follows the SCAR from the popular video game, Fortnite.


 * The Scar has the most variants out of any other gun in weaponry with the P90 as the runner-up:
 * Scar-S
 * Risyari's Scar
 * Headstackk's Scar
