If you’ve already dived in, you’ll likely know how frantic multiplayer is in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. As with each iteration of the franchise, where the competitive scene favors speed and tenacity over careful planning and precision, the more lead you can sling at an opponent, the better. With that in mind, the best C9 build in Black Ops 6 aims to enhance your firing rate, improve hip-fire accuracy, and boost momentum to keep you at the forefront of your team.
In this C9 build guide, we’ll focus on the best attachments for the submachine gun, the most viable Perks, and the appropriate Wildcard to enhance the build and play-style. We’ll also offer a few tips on using the close-quarters weapon effectively.

Unlike your standard assault rifle, which is more beginner-friendly, wielding an SMG in Black Ops 6 is a mixed bag for most players. It’s a unique play-style that rewards speed, ferocity, and risk-taking behavior. As such, a few tips go a long way:

The C9 requires a certain mindset to utilize effectively. As such, you’ll likely want more versatility if you’re not a fan of fast-paced, run-and-gun play, with flick-shot antics to dominate enemies in close and mid-range encounters. The C9 excels up close and personal, but here are a few worthwhile alternatives in class and out:
The weapons in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 run the gambit, with the assault rifle class dominating the battlefield for the most part. But if you want to stick to up-close engagements, but require additional precision or spread, then the Marine SP proves worthy.
