Jun 29, 2017 · The Winger is a really good secondary and should be used a lot more cause I don't see a lot of people using it. What it does is only give you a 60% less clip size meaning you only have 5 in the clip but you gain a 15% damage bonus with the best benefit of 25% greater jump height while active.

The reload time allows you to re-aim on your target. That's something useful against scouts but trivial against soldiers and demos.

Nov 23, 2018 · I find that a lot of people don't use/underrate the Winger as a weapon. In reality, it takes a little bit of creativity and map knowledge, but that extra jump height can be used to the Scout's advantage.

May 25, 2024 · Winger > Atomizer every time Winger > any secondary tbh The chunkier damage of the Winger is much better for closing out fights + great double jump assist. Atomizer is good for passive map mobility but anything the Atomizer can do the Winger can do too. It frees up your melee for the plethora of good options.
