Scorestreaks (earned by points) and Killstreaks (earned by kills) can drastically impact a match. Choosing the right streaks and knowing when to deploy them is crucial.
Choosing Your Streaks:
- Low Tier (4-6 Kills/Points): UAV, Counter UAV, Care Package. Good for consistent intel or a chance at a higher streak.
- Mid Tier (7-10 Kills/Points): Sentry Gun, Cluster Mine, Precision Airstrike, Cruise Missile. Excellent for area denial, clearing objectives, or getting multi-kills.
- High Tier (11+ Kills/Points): Advanced UAV, Chopper Gunner, VTOL Jet, Juggernaut. Game-changing streaks that can dominate the map.
Deployment Strategy:
- UAV/Counter UAV: Deploy immediately when earned to provide or deny intel.
- Offensive Streaks (Airstrike, Cruise Missile): Use them to clear objective points, spawn traps, or large groups of enemies. Look at your minimap for enemy concentrations.
- Defensive Streaks (Sentry Gun, VTOL): Place Sentry Guns in strategic locations to cover flanks or objectives. Deploy VTOLs to protect an area or provide sustained air support.
- Juggernaut: Best used when your team is pushing an objective or needs a strong frontline. Be aware of enemy launchers.
- Advanced UAV: Deploy when your team needs to make a decisive push or hold a critical area, as it shows enemy direction.
Tip: If you're struggling to earn high streaks, focus on objective play (Domination, Hardpoint) as scorestreaks reward points for objectives, not just kills.
