Sawed-Off: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 16:36, 21 February 2026

The Sawed-Off is a pump-action shotgun exclusive to the Terrorist side in Counter-Strike 2. It has the shortest effective range of any shotgun but deals devastating damage at point-blank range.

Overview

At $1,100, the Sawed-Off is a T-exclusive shotgun that packs enormous damage at close range. Its wide pellet spread means it is devastating within a few meters but almost useless beyond that. The Sawed-Off has 75% armor penetration and can one-shot opponents at point-blank, making it a viable ambush weapon on eco rounds.

Usage Tips

The Sawed-Off has the highest per-pellet damage of any shotgun at 32 per pellet.
Extremely short range limits the Sawed-Off to point-blank ambush plays.
$900 kill reward provides excellent economic return if you can score kills.
Use the Sawed-Off to ambush CTs from unexpected positions where they push into your range.
75% armor penetration is decent, allowing one-shot kills on armored opponents at very close range.
The Sawed-Off is T exclusive. On CT side, use the MAG-7 or Nova instead.
Consider pairing with a flashbang to close the distance safely.
