Video Of Dual Wielding Pistols Leaked!

As you can see it operates like the Plasma Pistol from the Halo franchise; each shot needs to be charged up before releasing but when it fires it promises a heavy payload. Will these weapons be meta? Almost certainly not, except perhaps as a weapon to open up fights with before switching to something better. But, only time will tell, so we'll keep our eyes open when the new season launches.
