Assault Rifle
Assault Rifle, unfortunately, is not really much better than the Rookie Machine Gun. Worse agility and a similar lackluster damage output mean it'll see no online use barring newbies who use it over the Rookie Machine Gun. The best way to kill with this weapon is to simply move left and right, throwing off their aim, all while shooting them and hopefully killing them. Its range is also decent, so it may be able to beat a player with a shotgun weapon if they are far away from you; but again, most other automatic weapons are better at this.
Countering the Assault Rifle is as simple as staying away and using common sense. Since the Assault Rile does very little from a long way away, shooting them with powerful ranged weapons such as the Howitzer Gun is a simple way to keep players with this weapon away. If the player happens to be close to you, go behind him or on his side and beat him from there, so he can't hit you back. Most people who use this gun will be newbies, so it should be simple to kill them before they kill you. |

TL; DR
The weapon fails to make a mark in competitive play, and is outclassed by most other automatic weapons.
