How to PROPERLY nerf the SCW-10

Season 5 Phase 2 brought a "nerf" to the SCW-10 which in reality , the only thing that got affected is the sprint recovery which if you look at it from a competitive point of view , is not really a stat that matters so much (the change was from 167ms to 200ms) when equipping the basic barrel and the 25 round mag (the ADS time in didn't get hit) which is way they should've really done in order to balance , oh and of course lets not forget the extra damage drop-off at 55m that doesn't really matter because at that distance you'll be using the interdictor and finishing them off with 1 bullet of the SCW-10 anyways since when you land a headshot you hit for 175 out of 180 , all that needs to be done , is make the 25 round mag (which costs 45points) make the ADS time in slower by 1 gear (meaning that the minimum ADS time in with the 25 round mag becomes 200ms instead of 167ms) - Let me know what you guys think of this , i think it will make the gun way less snappy specially in those close quarter scenarios that it's already way too dominant at (not to talk about the fact that it has on paper the best TTK and controllability out of every 35 damage module weapon excluding the NVO and RSPR , but the RSPR is a very nice addition to the game making it a close second , since you can get it down to 133ms ADS in time / 133ms sprint recovery =/= VS the SCW 167ms/200ms , making it a bit more snappy than the SCW-10 , and once again , sprint recovery is less important so we are only really looking at a 34ms reaction time difference , the SCW-10 has a 375ms TTK to a fully plated opponent in a battle royale match , while the RSPR has a 417ms TTK (We're talking body shot TTK) the RSPR has a slightly faster bullet velocity (around 15-20% faster) but still low so it's not really that much better at tracking people at those 50+ meter distance , has a slightly faster reload time (2.334 vs 2.600) , but in regards to that first shot recoil , the RSPR is worse than the SCW-10 , (0.6 vs 0.7) that's 16.6% more 1st shot recoil , random recoil variation is 12% less on the RSPR than the SCW (30.0 vs 33.5) but that random recoil variation doesn't matter that much when the base 1st shot recoil is that much lower , that first bullet is the one that makes your tracking better , specially when you need to burst fire , so the RSPR is slower , and has more recoil but reloads 266ms faster and is 34ms faster on the time it takes to aim down sights , seems like they really focused on bringing a new gun to fight the SCW-10 meta rather than addressing the source of the problem , because even with all that was said about the RSPR , it's still not good enough to compete against it at the top level , i wrote as much detail as i could in order to show that i know what I'm talking about , and i appreciate anyone who took a minute to read , in summary , Nerf the 25 round mag to include an extra 33ms to ADS time in (making the meta build 200ms ADS time in , instead of 167ms) pretty much making it 1 gear worse in how fast you aim down your sights

Meta SCW build being used in comparison to the RSPR with all stats displayed :
SCW-10: Flash hider (10pts) , Mini flex (10pts) ,folding stubby grip (20pts) , 25 round mag (45pts) , FMJ  standard bullets (5pts)


Redsec TTK 375ms ( Body shot TTK from 9meters and below) , Reload time 2.6s , ADS strafe speed 0.67x (stat that isn't that important when it's only 1 gear between weapons) Sprint recover 200ms , Recoil amount 0.6 & Recoil variation 33.5 , muzzle velocity 398m/s , HS multiplier 1.4x

Meta RSPR build being used in comparison to the SCW with all stats displayed:

RSPR: Flash hider (10pts) , Basic barrel (10pts) , folding stubby grip (20pts) , 28 round mag (35pts) , 1x mini flex (10pts) , buffer (5pts) , lightweight ammo (10pts) (adds extra ADS strafe speed gear , and is being used because you end up with 5 spare points , so it's a placebo attachment , that you might as well take since nothing else can be used for those 5 points)

Redsec TTK 417ms ( Body shot TTK from 9meters and below) , Reload time 2.334s , ADS strafe speed 0.75x (1 gear higher than SCW) sprint recovery 133ms (doesn't matter when you're slide jumping and shooting anyways) ADS time in 133ms (the only strong point it has on the SCW other than reload time , and a tiny bit muzzle velocity) Recoil amount 0.7 & Recoil variation 30.0 , muzzle velocity 453m/s , HS multiplier 1.4x
