pandapaxxy (M+KB / Controller / PvE): "The Title is an interesting SMG. It's got some great synergy with different builds like the All for All, or grave robber and swashbuckler. Vorpal is always a good choice for general use, but I find SMGs can't really take advantage of it. If you have a good Funnelweb, you can make this work with different builds, but for overall usage I don't know if I'd take The Title over my frenzy Funnelweb." Recommended MW- Reload.

pandapaxxy (M+KB / PvP): "For PvP I think the Title outclasses most SMGs but falls short in lethality. The best damage perk you have is swashbuckler, which, while fine, falls short of kill clip or multikill clip. It will be interesting to see how the meta shifts with the SMG rework and shotgun nerfs coming. If a more neutral SMG is what really starts to shine." Recommended MW - Range.
