If you play a game of swords vs shotguns, the guy with the shotgun should win by a margin of ~ 20 kills (in a game til 50) if he's a decent user. That means that the shotgun flat out owns the sword heads up. In a live game however it's different -- the sword with the br is usually more useful because of the lunge, but if you are trapped between 3-4 people you will die after killing 1, however with the shotgun you would be able to kill all of them. It's simply a question of reach and the map you are playing. Personally, I choose the shotgun because that way I can get easy kills if several people rush me in a small space and with it I don't fear the guy with the sword at all because in 85% of the situations ill kill him before he kills me, also the sword draws attention. But with the shotgun you won't be able to assassinate a guy 5 meters in front of you if he's running nor will you be able to kill someone that's shoothing 5 meters away from you and got 2 shots in before you turn. Still, I choose the shotty.
