Strinova’s Demolition mode is the star of the game, and to be victorious, you’ll need to strategize with your teammates. Taking your Agent’s abilities into account is key to forming a balanced team, whether you’re attacking or defending. However, when it comes to other game modes, like Team Deathmatch and Team Arena, all you need is firepower.
Since you can’t use your Agent’s Ultimate on those maps, you can only rely on your weapons to do maximum damage. That said, it might be best for you to focus on your Primary weapon instead of special abilities to claim as many eliminations as you can.
10 Chroma
Sniper Rifles aren’t very welcome on Strinova at launch, so they won’t be featured on this list. The maps’ configuration, and game mechanics like Stringification, make it tough for snipers to thrive, but DMRs are a whole different story.
Chroma is Maddelena’s Primary weapon, and it packs a punch. You only need a couple of shots to down an enemy, and your magazine is big enough to eliminate a couple of opponents if your aim is good. The problem comes when you need to reload, as you might give your enemy the chance to strike.
Maddelena’s Active Skill, Pigment Bind, can string-block enemies so you can have a cleaner shot at your opponents without them escaping at the last second.
9 Dawn
Reiichi is one of the most balanced Agents in Strinova at launch, being a great pick for any of the available game modes. His Primary weapon, Dawn, is also a DMR but with a considerable damage increase from Maddelena’s Chroma. Headshots are a secured frag, although they might be hard to pull off.
The only downside to this weapon is that it comes with a 2.5x scope. This makes it hard to aim on most maps, so you might need a bit of practice before mastering Reiichi and Dawn.
8 Falcon
Based on the real-life Steyr AUG assault rifle you might know from other shooters, Meredith’s Falcon is a decent Primary weapon for game modes like Team Arena, where you might see enemies all around you.
Falcon’s stats are pretty average, being a better alternative than others like the Shadow, but it still relies a lot on Meredith’s abilities that can drain HP from her enemies. It’s a decent assault rifle with great precision, which is ideal for Meredith when she levitates and surprises her enemies.
7 Polaris
Celestia’s Primary weapon is great for getting the hang of Strinova’s rhythm and its different game modes. This assault rifle is even more accurate than the Falcon, which is great for players on all levels.
You’ll find other assault rifles with higher firepower, but Polaris is a great and very versatile pick for all game modes. Thanks to its accuracy and fire rate, you can rely on it for close-quarters combat or picking enemies from a safe distance.
6 Sawtooth
Another assault rifle that can get you many eliminations is Fuchsia’s Primary weapon. The Sawtooth is one of the most powerful assault rifles in Strinova, with great stats to keep in mind. Combined with her abilities to detect enemies, it’s a great way to corner opponents before they can react.
It’s best to use Sawtooth without its 1.25x scope to be as quick as possible. Of course, you need it to eliminate enemies at bigger distances, but you’ll notice a large decrease in its firepower the farther away you are from your target.
5 Rebelflame
Ming might seem like a pretty average Agent, but her Primary weapon, Rebelflame, is the most powerful AR in Strinova at launch. In turn, it’s not as accurate as the other assault rifles on this list, but it’s still the best one you can get to decimate enemies on Team Deathmatch and Team Arena.

This is great for Ming because her Passive allows her to regenerate her Shield based on the amount of damage she does. So keep firing, and you’ll be unstoppable.
4 Solo
Strinova features few submachine guns at launch, but they’re surprisingly powerful for such a small weapon. What’s more, they’re highly effective at different ranges, making them a great pick even to poke at enemies from large distances.
Solo is Flavia’s Primary weapon. She’s considered one of the best characters in the game, thanks to her abilities, but her SMG is a key element in her kit when it comes to eliminating opponents. Ideal for short and mid ranges, Solo can also deal damage from afar.
3 Beareas
Beareas is another of Strinova’s submachine guns, and it’s more powerful than Solo. While these weapons are pretty similar, Beareas boasts better stats, making it slightly more valuable. Yvette’s Primary weapon is based on the popular MP5, the star of many other shooter games.
Since Yvette relies a lot on her bear companion, she needs all the firepower she can get when she’s on her own. That’s why the Beareas is ideal for all kinds of matches in Strinova, from Team Deathmatch to Demolition and Escort.
2 Wildfire
Shotgun users can dominate any Strinova match if they play their cards right, and that’s probably why there are so few to choose from. Wildfire is Eika’s Primary weapon, and it pairs very well with her fire-based abilities. Wildfire is an automatic shotgun, so you don’t have to worry about anything but aiming.

Which Strinova Agent Are You Based On Your Zodiac Sign?
With such a huge cast, there’s likely a Strinova agent you’ll vibe with.
Eika is a prominent force in Strinova thanks to Wildfire, and she can even hit enemies from a distance with it, making the weapon almost unbeatable.
Eika’s Active Skill, Purgatory, summons a spherical Flame Cage that applies burn damage to enemies passing through it and enhances her Primary weapon as long as you remain inside the cage.
1 Freedom Reign
The other shotgun user in Strinova is Bai Mo, who is considered extremely annoying by players who face him in battle. Freedom Reign is extremely powerful and pairs very well with Bai Mo’s dash to confuse enemies with constant movement. The powerful shotgun is also very accurate, although it might take some time to master.
The downside to Freedom Reign is that you’ll need to hit your opponents up close to make the most damage, as you’ll need all your pellets to hit the target for maximum impact.
Bai Mo’s Active Skill, Blitz Waltz, is a dash that allows you to relocate quickly on the map and also reloads his shotgun with two shells so you can immediately attack. Additionally, Freedom Reign string-blocks enemies when dealing at least 50 DMG in a single shot.
