But if you can master it, you can shoot it as quickly as possible, which gives you the advantage.
That's precisely what separates the best from the rest. I've worked a lot on controlling spray patterns so I can continue to shoot enemies while they stop and wait for the recoil. Sure, this can look bad if you're a bit off in the aim department and miss consistently (I recall one round on Nuke Mutiny asked me why I was spraying at an enemy when I died). The converse is I can still kill enemies quickly when I miss my first shot. It's especially noticeable on 128 tick servers, where I can take down multiple enemies at a time when their spacing is poor. I'm extremely confident with rifles now, I just need to work on shooting pistols faster (especially the p2000).
