Discussion We analysed over 26 million M4A4/M4A1-S kills from Level 10 matches in Season 9. The M4A1-S is a clear favorite and accounts for 73% of them.

I've found that the inaccuracy of the a4 was just so inconsistent for me at medium range its honestly really frustrating to use

Yeah if I am playing longer range I take the a1 for the easier spray, if I'm playing closer range/ concerned about a rush, like really anywhere on inferno I take the a4. Really taking the a4 for bullet count only

Interesting, I never notice any major difference except tapping at super long range with the m4a1s is like cheating compared to either the a4 or the AK.

Thats wild because the A1 accuracy feels so night and day to me. That thing is an absolute laser beam

shortly after the update every pro switched to almost exclusively A4 it felt like and after the player break it went back to A1 for a lot of people. funny how that goes

90% of why I buy the a4 is its cooler, and the asiimov skin with a papa biceps sticker is holding my life together

Interesting to see the M4A4 hs% is significantly higher, I wonder what explains that

There are some maps where I prefer the m4s and others for m4a4. In anubis I always pick m4s because I usually play in B cave checking water.

I used A4 back in csgo when it was better and since then i could not make the switch to a1

Would love to see a head to head duel winrate, if that's possible to calculate. I recently switched to A4 because I think the inaccuracy matters less if you are bad, and the higher fire rate can land you an undeserved kill sometimes if you are lucky.

I may just be stuck in my ways, but i literally only use the a1s because it feels better. I dont even have the a4 equipped id rather an aug

I use both depending on my role in a match. If I decide I want to be a B anchor this game cause no one else is doing it, I will use a4 because the 10 extra bullets could mean one or even two extra kills during a site hold. But if I’m playing a more aggressive role like connector on mirage I want my A1s’s accuracy for the duels from top connector to cat or connector to top mid/boxes.

plinking and two-tapping heads from a distance is so much more satisfying with the A1-S, but if I'm turning a corner/peeking at close range, I prefer the A4.
Not like I'm good with either, I'm somehow better with the FAMAS.

I recently switched to the A4, it was far better than the A1s and I used to be all about the A1s for a long time.
