Strategic Extraction Analysis

In the current meta, the Bully SMG occupies a niche position. Its moderate time-to-kill of 2.111s at close range makes it viable in most combat scenarios.

With 540 rounds per minute and a 30-round magazine, the Bully SMG can secure kills within a single magazine. Its headshot multiplier of 1.6x means skilled players can reduce TTK to 0.889s with consistent headshots. Range performance sees damage drop to 72% at medium range and 42% at long range. Players should strictly engage within close range for optimal results.
