Ranking EVERY SMG In FORTNITE HISTORY From WORST To BEST 

ALL GAMEPLAY LINKED IN THE DESCRIPTION 💯

I agree on the Tac SMG this low. playing it in reload hurts me honestly

1:20 “the gameplay will speak for itself” *shows the gun absolutely frying ppl*

Yo Ty you should do a video where you rank all bosses (their mythic poi and fight)

The thunder burst is just too good, you right

I absolutely LOVE the Stinger SMG, prior to twin mag in Ch4. All of CH.3 S1 was me using that gun anytime i could, even in reload now i will drop any smg just to have the stinger.

accualy the OG drumgun is AR class while the new one is SMG class

10:00 “Good luck hitting a shot” The background clip hitting almost every shot

Bro it is crazy how the makeshift SMG (a weapon that was MADE to be bad) is BETTER than the Tactical SMG 😭. Also the Suppressed SMG’s falloff needs to be STUDIED.

Funny Video Idea Ranking Every Fish🐟

Combat smg on launch was the most busted non mythical I ever used. I remember seeing that I hit someone for 49 or 48 to the head with the gold one and was shocked. Like why would an smg do more damage than an AR and be able to 5 shot someone with that fire rate? It was truly amazing

I think c4 is SUPER underated

Few things, the LEGACY Drum Gun is classed as an Assault weapon. the New Chapter 5 Version is classed as an SMG. and the Ray Guns are also SMGs despite what they are. Also Side Note, the Primal SMG is Slightly better than the Classic thanks to the Mag size being 35, but I think that's just because of the weird balance changes after the Primal SMG's time So it's fine. There is also a whole history of nonsense when it comes to the P90s of the game, Which to sum it up: Epic made the original Compact SMG the Epic and Legendary MP5 that we saw in chapter 4. and then they had the chapter 2 versions of the Epic and Legendary SMG removed from the game until Season OG. It was weird and Convoluted but basically, the Compact SMG doesn't exist anymore.

As a thunder burst lover I approve this list

For the charge smg you don't have to charge the whole thing you can shoot 4 bullets at a time if you hold it for a split second

Video idea : pest weapon combos /best weapons to combo with a shotgun

Tbf the drum gun is considered a SMG due to the killfeed.

Drum gun is an SMG, even tho it uses AR ammo it still goes in the SMG slot with auto sorting

Screw the comments that say “4 views in 2 minutes, bro fell off”

One really interesting thing about the combat smg is that on console it has almost NO recoil, so for controller players it has literally no downsides

The charge is perfect against people gliding though especially on creative pvp maps I've cut people out of the air one too many times to count

Burst SMG is incredibly underrated, while the Thunder is definitely better i think that gets way too much hate! Plus it hasn't been in the game in any way for nearly 5 years...

after you complete these ranking series you should do a "ranking every gun in fortnite" video

Honestly absolutely valid list i 100% agree with ur list

I'll tell you one thing, having experienced the original SMG it was fine off the rip of landing but after that I would not waste time with it.

17:48 the twin mag smg was only in the main loot pool for the first half of chapter 4. It was also obtainable if you killed a few npcs in season 3. It wasn’t a part of the loot pool for “the entire chapter.”

The Heisted Run 'N' Gun SMG is based on the v5.00 Submachine Gun that got the updated P90 model for epic/legendary rarities in v11.00. However, their model was changed in v24.00 to match the common-rare rarities, so the Compact SMG could make a return using the now unused P90 model.

4:50 this weapon was good for the sole purpose that in Season 9 when it first released, controller players in particular had a glitch where the aim assist on it increased by a lot, so it was very busted on release (something in the game code was messed up)

it was C2S4 when the tac smg was nerfed, but back in its hayday it had a DPS of 273 in the gold variant, higher than the minigun

The marvel season ruined the tactical smg. In my opinion it was so overpowered prenerf and me and my brothers would get mad at each other for using it

at 13:31 lachlan hit the player for 0 (make sure to put it on .25 playback speed)

I think the charge idea is really great, but they should have done the same thing as the charge shotgun, were every bullet does one or two extra damage, if you charge it by aiming. A charge sniper would also be cool (Not the railgun, but that thing is cool too).

I absolutely love the original burst smg. It was added in the wrong meta and never added back which is why it seems so bad

I'm glad the machine pistol's transition into machine smg went well.

Tbh for me in C5S1 the hyper always performed better than the burst but since C5S2 it's been the burst for me

As a fan of *PRIMAL* Him not putting the makeshift sub in last place IS A *HUGE* W

Could you do an updated one with the dual micro smgs?

Let’s see, can bro cook?

I’m glad the Combat SMG has a mythic, cuz it’s me fav even tho it’s a creative mythic and was never in the game including with, the Mythic Ranger AR, Striker Burst AR, Striker Pump Shotgun, Auto Shotgun, Charge SMG, Heavy Sniper Rifle, and Cobra DMR, but the mythic Hammer AR, Two Shot Shotgun, Prime Shotgun, Stinger SMG, Rapid Fire SMG, and the DMR are the real mythics in game.

The combat smg and the P90 are by far better than the burst. I remember specifically in that chapter 2 season lazy lake if you heard that p90 sound you knew what time it was.

Congrats on 17k subs Tyler sorry for not commenting in a long time 🎉🎉

Putting two of basically the same weapon 15 places away from eachother is absolutely devious

The Submachine Gun's higher tiers and the Compact SMG used the same model iirc; they recently removed the Compact from the game files entirely so the only weapon with the P90 model is the Submachine Gun

7:55 yeah did you forget about the primal shutgun😂

The scoped burst smg is actually a good longa range gun

The tac smg in season x was honestly insanley op

5:03 talking to me right there 😂, it was buffed AFTER this lazarbeam footage was recorded

The original burst smg was nerfed to the GROUND I have gameplay of it doing like 40 damage headshot and it fired incredibly fast, it was and still is my favorite smg of all time

its funny how every video has a "i have a fan club of x weapon who think its the best ever"

If this was considering past versions where would the old smgs before the range nerf (Compact, Suppressed, SMG) bc i remember that Daequan video where he beamed a guy with the suppressed from ar range and that the compact did all that with 25-26 dmg and 10-12 fire rate

If you put burst smg near the bottom, i will personally find you and change your mind

Ur my favorite fn youtuber

My favorite smgs are the twin mag smg, combat smg, and the harbinger smg but fr to me the twin mag is my favorite smg of all time

POV Minigun: 😐 Sideways Minigun:😐😐😐

The Machine SMG was called pistol, but it was an SMG, in Ch3 Szn1

To start off, they in fact did categorized the Drum Gun to be SMG in C5, it has always been an SMG just with the tag “Assault Rifle” even though literally everything about it from day 1 showed SMG, from range to mag to fire rate + damage, even lines up with the Compact SMG that released the season after Submachine Gun (Uzi): too inaccurate and too weak, i agree Charge SMG: technically it’s the BEST as it does the best DPS/TTK and solid accuracy without bad recoil, it’s literally just how you shoot it which only works if you are far or ZB behind a wall, needs a rework to be like the Charge Shotgun Tac SMG: disagree that it’s down here below the Suppressed but yeah, C2 ruined a LOT of weapons and the Tac SMG is a victim, DPS/TTK is even worse than the Hyper SMG or Drum Gun (other than Legendary Hyper, we dont talk about that tho) Makeshift: WOAHWOAHWOAH nah, this things DPS/TTK is better than C5 SMGs (other than Harbinger now) while still having solid accuracy, why is this so low, it also has FASTER fire rate than Tac SMG (9 vs 10) Machine SMG: frankly it shouldnt be this low tier, yeah inaccurate when u spray a lot but that’s the exact same as the Rapid Fire and Twin-Mag with the only difference being instead of 2 or 3 damage more than balanced it’s 1.5, the fact that i havent seen the Suppressed yet is astonishing Burst SMG: too inaccurate for a Burst SMG though it’s actually super balanced, i’d put much more below this SMG but i can see why the inconsistency is too much, but it’s a good smg other than that, doesnt do low damage (24/25/26 is same as Thunder Burst while having faster fire rate) Suppressed SMG: i say Tac SMG does better because of the bloom that comes after spraying the Suppressed, other than that it shouldnt be this high Scoped Burst: does such terrible damage that it’s probably THE worst right next to the Charge and idk why it’s to high up, i think 15.5-19.5 damage would be good for it with good hip-fire but the Legendary does 15 with bad hip-fire, scoped in it’s good but other than that this weapon is inconsistent AND weak Primal SMG: similar to the Burst, it’s balanced in DPS/TTK but at least it does a lot better in accuracy to actually use, it’s basically the Compact SMG but 1 more damage and 5 less mag and should prob be a bit further up Hyper: too inaccurate and fair bit of recoil but without those flaws it’s actually insane, especially with mods you could really deck this thing out, but i would still take a Primal SMG same rarity over it Harbinger: after the buff it went up a rarity of damage but same problems as the Hyper, too inaccurate and too much recoil Stinger: should be much higher, has balanced DPS/TTK as the Sub but has better range, accuracy and structure damage (structure is 2 above the Sub while having 1 more fire rate..), this tier list seems not well looked into respectfully Submachine Gun: should’ve been a bit lower but it’s solid yes Rapid Fire: i would still put this around the Machine SMG and that says something because i also was obsessed like SypherPK, it’s actually really good with its DPS/TTK but the problem is mag (not really high tier) and accuracy which is like the Machine SMGs problems, i hate to do it but it shouldnt be this high when it’s so similar to the Machine Compact: should be lower than even the Primal, C1 SMGs have always been a close up fight SMG and after all the nerfs it’s just a slightly better Harbinger due to accuracy only, i do not like how it’s so high up when it’s the same DPSs/TTK as a C5 SMG Run n’ Gun: as you say but much lower on the list because the Rare version of this weapon is slightly better as it does x1.75 headshot rather than x1.5, the Exotic aspect also only works in ZB as in comp it isnt worth picking up with other better weapons and mobility in the game Combat SMG: not sure why this isnt higher, it has balanced DPS/TTK to the Twin-Mag while having better accuracy overall and better headshot, it really doesnt have bad recoil like you say as it’s like the AR but easier, disappointed it’s in 4th Twin-Mag: should’ve been below the Combat but it really is still one of the best, same reasons as the Combat Blink-Mag: Twin-Mag but exotic, should’ve been like the Hop Rock Dualies though as swapping after getting the effect makes you lose it which makes it a bad exotic but still insane because it has Mythic damage Thunder Burst: i have to disagree, it’s extremely consistent but it’s also weaker than the Submachine Gun in DPS/TTK, it’s def top 5 or even 3 but this smg is only good cuz of versatility, it’s moreso a Tac AR that can be used as an SMG which frankly the Combat and Twin-Mag do better due to their insane DPS/TTK, ive used this in The Pit and i always end up using the Combat SMG over it

This list is perfect. Maybe I disagree with the submachine gun and the compact smg and the stinger could be a bit higher up, but the rest is spot on

Yo nice vid you earned a new sub🎉

Please do the best pistols

Highest msg dps in fortnite (not counting the charge smg) 3. Heisted blink mag smg (273 dps) 2.Gunnar’s stinger smg (276 dps) 1.mythic combat smg (276.5 dps)

Controller + machine pistol was the craziest combo ever

Can't wait for the half an hour version of the AR version, love the long form content 🙏❤(peak glazing)

Personally - the charge SMG is a good weapon but to utilize its potential it needs to be used WAY differently from an Smg or even a decently fast AR so I’d say that as far as how good the gun is for the ,,role’’ of an SMG the placement here is justified but as far as the strength of it goes it should have been higher.

The rapid fire should be in the top 3 because it's an amazing SMG(second best fire rate and good damage), and a secondary weapon, not an ar

I want to say something to render the beginning about the Drum Gun kinda pointless in terms of technicality. The Typewriter in Save The World, which is just the Drum Gun, is classified as an SMG, not a Rifle, and the fast firing M4; the Breacher, is classified as a Rifle, despite firing as fast as a basic BR SMG and being a classic BR Assault Rifle. Also fun fact about the primal and makeshift weapons: they're also in STW in the form of the Black Metal and Scavenger weapons respectively. Imagine C2 S6 with primal weapons that exploded in your face upon reload and the makeshift act like the mechanical weapons.

Drum gun is not technically an AR. When you eliminate someone with a Drum Gun, the kill feed will say 'eliminated with an SMG'. It just has medium ammo bc its a lot more spammable bc of its high mag size (especially used to have 50) so medium ammo kinda holds back its spam potential

i used to heavy glaze the og burst smg, but looking back on it the people in my lobby were either bots or just terrible at the game

Maybe I’m bad, but I don’t ever remember liking the twin mag smg. It just had too small of a mag and not enough damage for me. I always took whatever else we had probably

Scoped burst is f*cking underrated. In one burst it did 90+ and I remember killing more than 12 people every game from 200-250 meters with this on zero build. I believe it was even better than the tunder burst...

The hyper smg is like if your 90 year old grandma was tickling you

that tac smg take i agree with, in reload i always felt that the damage dropoff, bloom, and just the gun itself is really mid

I miss the old tac submachine gun. It used to have a dps of 271 in season x(the gold one)

I loved the twin mag smg glad that epic put in reload

Honestly, I don't like the thunderburst smg as I've never liked burst weapons in general, so i usually prefer the hyper and harbinger smg over it

My favorite smg is my copper viper cuz its rlly nice and i craft it each time it breaks

The tac SMG was NERFED in the marvel season, it was super strong in season X The makeshift SMG is literally an ever so slightly better version of the tac SMG and it’s sad

Hyper smg is only good with mods, you nailed the ranking if we’re talking no mods

Do pistols My top 3 are flintknock tac pistol and ch5s3 hand cannon

Twin mag on top. Also the Tac smg was hard nerfed in season 4 when the fire rate was nerfed to 9 and mag size to 25. Also on console the combat smg recoil is way lower then you say. I've used it as an assult rifle

The Tac SMG is my favorite gun in fn history just for the memories of carnage I committed with it back in Seasons 4 and X. R.I.P my boi Also big T-Burst W

So I was using the scoped burst SMG from ch4 s4 as my primary sniper support weapon. If i got the body shot it was easy to swap and get the finish

Agree with the Primal SMG sounding good, this thing sounds tasty

Bro the thunder burst is never gonna be beaten in chapter 5 unless it gets nerfed which it hasn't yet

the p-90 is THE smg, it was quite litterally called SubMachine Gun

stinger deserves way higher, playing it in reload just showed me how good it was

The suppressed is underrated

The stinger isn’t as good as its hall of fame days when it first came out, but it’s still easily top 2 smgs right now

Ty, you should make a video where you rank every bosses mythic weapon

The new drumgun ingame is classified as an smg, but the old one is classified as an ar

Should do a tier list or rank every poi in Fortnite ever or rank from each chapter

Fun fact. The original compact Smg no longer exists in Fortnite. The closest you can get to the og P90 is the Epic and legendary Submachine gun

You should do a short video ranking the chapter and season theme musics.

The scoped Burst was a ton of fun beaming people! But it kinda suck but the beams were so satisfying so ima lover for it but I’m not mad at the rating because it sucks

Can you renk every single Glider

Bro the classiv burst smg slander annoys me lazerbeam couldnt hit a shit because he wasnt aiming the gun was fucking great especially against people without shields

"Chapter 2 season 6 lovers go ahead" got me💀

I’m sorry but my favorite smg is the machine smg because for whatever reason I can hop on crazy red vs blue and pop off from range and close quarters combat. Hate the thunder burst smg because the sound makes me cringe and I am a versitile player who let’s just say likes a consistent stream if you get what I mean 😏

Putting the thunderburst smg #1 is crazy bro

Charge SMG enjoyers rejoice, Tyluh did NOT rank it as the worst smg 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥

Forgot the Drum Gun. It is classified as an SMG. That said, Combat SMG is the GOAT. Didn't even run an AR in my load out when it was in Chapter 3. It ever comes back with attachments, it's game over!
