Overview

The Negev is a machine gun that's infamous for its overwhelming rate of fire and seemingly endless ammunition supply. It starts off with a high level of inaccuracy but becomes more precise the longer it is fired. While not often seen in serious competitive play because of its high cost and movement penalties, the Negev can be an intimidating tool for area denial in more casual environments.
