No... CQC isn't viable at all for this build, especially to trade in Adrenaline. First off, maxed out, you must be within 2.2 m range, and secondly it does only 5500. Why not stay away far enough and shoot the zombie for more damage? Blitzing doesn't necessarily mean close range, it means speeding in and destroying them before they can respond. Adrenaline is part of the foundation of this build's offense. When maxed out, it gives more than 50% movement speed, reload, rate of fire for 11 seconds with a 25 second cool down that begins on activation. When constantly used, one can be in a state of Adrenaline for a little bit less than half the game. Of all the Assault skills, Adrenaline is the one that truly stands out. To trade it for CQC is probably one of the worst things you can do.

And I'll be blunt. Flamethrower sucks for this build. It's a support weapon. In NM it stuns a group of zombies and does very minor damage. It holds them in place so someone else can come kill them. Lone Star isn't the most popular rocket, but I'd rather have a Lone Star than a Flamethrower. Actually I rather use my black Feld.

Interesting video. Now here's the same map, same area, but with a rocket and Adrenaline, with yours truly.
