Kali's loadout has always been the weakest part of her kit. No matter pro players or your average casuals, people just find it too hard to use her bolt-action rifle effectively and consistently.
Hence, more so than other operators, her sidearms get a lot of attention. The P226 Mk25 is a good semi-auto pistol, but her only full-auto option is the C75 Auto. While it is one of the more controllable machine pistols, it's iron sights are...sub-par to say the least. This lead to many people being turned off from using the C75 and use the P226 instead, or even turned off from playing Kali in the first place.
A potential solution to this is (IMO) to replace the C75 with the SPSMP9, currently only seen on Clash.
First of all, its built-in reflex sight gives it a very good sight picture; combined with its good recoil (for a machine pistol), it is the most accurate machine pistol in-game. To balance out its top-tier accuracy, it has a small magazine capacity of 20+1, and has weaker damage output than the rest of the machine pistols. It is a good, balanced option for Kali as it can do some mid-range combat due to its recoil and optic (though not optimal), instead of now where she only excels in either super long range or super close range, giving her better versatility.
Second, the SPSMP9 isn't really used much, since it's on...Clash. Clash is an unpopular character to begin with, and her frequent glitches meant she couldn't be played from time to time. Her P10-C probably sees more action since it's also on Warden, with those that do play him opting to avoid the SMG-12. With the current trend of reusing weapons, there's not really a reason to oppose such a change.
What's your opinion?
