This Dravec-45 build for Ranked Play takes inspiration from OpTic Texas superstar and three-time world champion Shotzzy, widely regarded as one of the most lethal SMG players at the pro level.

With the damage range and bullet velocity boosts from the EAM Horizon Barrel and Overpressured ammo, this Dravec-45 class lets you take on AR players at near-medium range without sacrificing close-range dominance. The Serval Q-Step enhances strafe speed, making you harder to track in duels while also improving rotational aim assist if you’re using a controller.

And because the Dravec-45 already has stable recoil control, there’s no need to waste a slot on a recoil-focused muzzle. Instead, the Hawker Hybrid tightens your hipfire spread and increases slide and dive to fire speed, which are big advantages in close-quarters fights where quick reactions and movement decide the outcome.

  • Pistol: Jager 45
  • Melee: Knife
  • Field Upgrade: Trophy System
  • Tactical: Stun Grenade
  • Lethal: Semtex or Frag Grenade
  • Wildcard: Perk Greed
  • Perk 1: Flak Jacket
  • Perk 2: Tech Mask
  • Perk 3: Dexterity
  • Perk 4: Ninja

The Jager 45 is the ideal secondary to fall back on when your Dravec runs out of bullets in the middle of a fight. For your field upgrade, Trophy System is essential, as it shuts down enemy throwables while you’re locking down objectives or holding power positions. Run Stun Grenade as your tactical to slow opponents down, and pair it with Semtex for a reliable lethal.

In Black Ops 7 Ranked Play, Perk Greed is the only available Wildcard, giving you access to four perks. With choices limited, I recommend Flak Jacket, Tech Mask, Dexterity, and Ninja, which are all great for an aggressive approach. Flak Jacket and Tech Mask work together to reduce explosive and tactical effects, Dexterity improves weapon handling, and Ninja makes you move more quietly.

Now that you’ve locked in the best Dravec-45 loadout for BO7 Ranked Play, you might also want to use the best M15 Mod 0 ranked loadout. Make sure check out our settings guides as well to further maximize your performance:
