    You really don't need that 40% additional strafe build that ace does on literally every gun. 30% is more than enough. That's lightweight stock + small vert. Then you can have something like Quick Draw instead of leather wrapped, and improve your ads + sprint out time, rather than hurting it

    MDR is one of those uncool weird kids that glowed-up during adulthood.
  • @jordan_0914
    I've been using the MDR recently, and it's quite good. I ignored it during the pre-season but I am really enjoying it now.
  • @schmoofadoop
    Thank you Ace for continuing to cover XD with such high quality analysis as always!
  • BIGGEST TIP: The recoil actually jumps FAR left at the very start of its recoil. If you kind of do a small flick to the right as soon as your fire, then control recoil like normal, you'll turn it into a laser.

    I noticed the headshot difference with 2 shots before the buff, I always wanted this gun to be a good agro AR but now it for sure fits that mold. As someone with only a measly one gun silver and one bronze (p90 and AK) this will be the next grinder on my list😊
  • @sk84lyfe1211
    Can’t wait to give this gun a try after the update. Great video as always!!
  • I love these videos, definitely the best xdefiant content being made.
  • @yddragon100
    Always appreciate the efforts you put in papa Ace
  • @gnarface3831
    I always really liked the MDR. It was my favorite and I had it gold first. Can't wait to get it up to prisma now
  • @FRYMEN
    I look forward to your videos, they help a lot. Well played 👏🏾
  • @justing6614
    How do we unlock the MDR? i have every other assault rifle....
  • @atw196
    Been using the strafe build for a day now ,and consistently dropping over 40 kils in tdm ,it is indeed the best gun in the game now !!
  • @Daniel189HLL
    I hadn't even touched it until the update. Going to get the unlocks done now and run out with your first build. Cheers Ace.
  • @alexjames23
    Just had an IDEA! I think it would be great if you could add another “chart” like the ttk and btk ones but with each weapons best current (in your opinion) attachments/build and then show those numbers too Great videos as always!
  • @savy957
    Do svd and mk20 next. Should I stack cleaners and heavy barrel or just use one or the other? Also need class setups. I like the acog scope
  • @2012JRB
    Way different then my builds but I been using this since the beginning before the buff so now it’s so dominant it’s crazy and I still don’t see many ppl using it. I will say this is the first time I don’t agree with your builds but it always depends on the user so I guess it just doesn’t work for my play style like my builds. Love the gun guides keep it up.
  • @vola-2899
    So does aim stability lessen the amount that the sight jiggle left and right when shooting?
  • @undead12335
    How does your hit detection work so much better than mine? I have bullets go through enemies
