What's the best killstreak & deathtreak to consistently top the frags?

I have been trying out this set up and did a few games at the top of the kills...

1. UAV
2. Precision Missle
3. Harrier

Basically once you hit 3 kills, u enable UAV. From there hunt down two more kills for Missle.
As you fire your missle, try to aim for double kill and it will activate harrier. If no one takes out the harrier then you are in the run for top fragging.

So far worked for me, but the challenge is hit 5 kills without death. Once my harrier was out, I was able to get another missle and harrier again shortly after i died.

Are there any more strategies for your killstreak/deathstreak?

Predator
Harrier
Chopper Gunner / AC130

like what Luftwacko suggest...

most prolly u get harrier most of the time.

then if your harrier is doing a good job then u'll be heading up the 11th killstreak reward.

but for me.

1) Harrier
2) Chopper/AC130 (depending on map)
3) Nuke [some time EMP]

deathstreak... depends too... for me most of the time is Painkiller for me. If you are caught up in a spawn trap by chopper or AC130... Final Stand works too...

But my strategy change if i'm with my clan mates and so as their killstreak. But what we use during clan wars or what not, are secret.

Very commonly a lot of players think that carepackage is the way to go. But more of less for less experienced players hoping to get something good out of it like ac130 or chopper gunner. Since it doesnt contribute to kill streak, you are tied down by a flukey package.

I like UAV but I am thinking of dropping UAV because almost everyone is using it. One one game, 3 person in the same team spammed UAV online in like 5 sec timeframe. That's a waste of 3 UAV.

Oooh and I normally run with anti-air weapon, so harrier or whatever up there, I'm gonna take it down within 5 sec. Even tried to blow up 1 care package before it drop the crate to see if I can deny a care package. Does this work? That damn helicopter is too fast and before my missle reach it drop the crate.

my theory is killing the care package helicopter before it reach it's destination and steal it.. that is if u are fast enough...

thats a nice streak but the player should be able and comfortable enough to reach at least 5 kill streak b4 every death otherwise its over kill and they should just get


1)predator missile
2)harrier
3)chopper/ac130(i prefer chopper im bad with ac130 )

I went slightly more risky one:

1) predator missile
2) stealth bomber
3) chopper g or ac130

Well you CAN destroy the care pkg heli but its really hard.But even though you shot down heli the pkg remain intact.It will just drop at where the heli was shot down.

Like what ppl stated
1]predator
2]harrier
3]CG[agressive style]/AC-130[play safe]/Pavelov[cheaper way]


The only Deathstreak that is totally useless is the COPYCAT.

yeap... every player should be comfortable on their killstreak...

most player start with Predator... but i start with Harrier 1st cos i know i can reach the 7th kill... if i'm more dare-ing, i start pavlow...

PPL go with PREDATOR because you might have a chance to score a triple kill or MULTI kill.

More like because you can confirm kill minimum one person or more(unless all decided to cold blood)

Cold blooded is a good alternative way to prevent getting gibbed by a Predator.But remember you are not 100% invisible.They are 2 more ways to escape from a Predator.

1]Run to the nearest cover for example a building.
2]Stay away from your teamates as ppl tend to aim multiple ppl.

unless like skidrow... where some time, players are in the building...

well if you played hardcore tdm, you will realize alot of them will go cold blooded which would result ur air support useless. Pred missile gave you a chance to hit them if your eyes are sharp enough

- Harrier
- Chopper Gunner
- Tactical Nuke

Hands down

oh skid row is quite annoying esp when there are just too many buildings to hide in but iv seen some players who really know where to hit the predator missile that it at least kills 1 person in the building. then again he could had have the perk :?

bleh, i sucks using predator missile. cos sometimes the person you aim dies before the missile reach. but preds from others always find me.

i think chopper gunner is best for killing. AC130 is on the slow side.

pavelow alright, harrier sucks - in some maps it does nothing cos all covered. just have to go behind it and take it down.

no guarantee wan la predator. you sway sway almost hit and someone kill him first then bye liao.

and clever teams don't stick together so near.

depends tho, remember... Chopper can be shot down in two stingers when it is still visible outside the map while AC130 needs more or need teamwork to take it down.

Yesterday I went with Predator, Harrier, AC130
I used Hardline perk to get earlier killstreak.

Killed 4, shot a predator for a double kill and got my harrier out.
Blind target an area and got double kill (8 in total, 2 to go)

Someone enabled UAV, so I traced one to kill but got instant gank by someone with coldblood cos I thought there was 1 but infact there were 2 of them. Sigh... /bye ac130...

One trick I learn is that if you want to get multiple kill (2 or more) using predator, wait till your team has 2 kills which they will likely spawn together and u predator them. Works everytime for me to get to my harrier.

eh nice tip on predator

Well you CAN get multikill on skidrow at the the alley bettween B and C.

yes u can... but if u are lucky and the timing is right...

Added on April 7, 2010, 5:45 pmoh yes. another tip.

sometime it's best to leave a killing killstreak (not uav or any thing that drops carepackage) just in case...

Situation 1.
Leave a suitable killstreak (etc:predator or ac130) till the end, such as when ur team is at 6500 score or when ur team is at a tie/losing... (for deathmatch)

Situation 2.
Use when defending a point when near end game or when the points are close (domination)

Situation 3.
Basically like situation 1, to end the game with a killstreak to earn more exp... =p

the rest i cant think of some...

Situation 1.
IMO risky.What if your mate or enemy called in a chopper or ac-130 when your team is about to win or losing?Wasted.

well... that's what the TAB button is for... Keep track of your enemy score

Not to mention CARE PKG.!!

lol... there will be always some one smarter than you. I didnt say it was Full Proof

Got a killcam with my harrier! Whoopie lol...

1. Harrier
2. Pave Low
3. AC130 (remember that you can switch views)

It's surprising how often people tend to ignore shooting down air support.

mayb because they expect someone else to take it down... i'll take it down, if i wasnt on a killstreak... i ask some people to take it down, but nooooo.... they said they hate people who ask them to take it down. and yes he refer to me... I was on a blardy Killstreak... had 6-7 kills.... and ask me to kill myself it to take it down? u got to be kidding me. If i only had 1 kill or just died i'll change kit and take it down... Everytime if there is enemy air support, i'll kill myself and change kit BUT only when i'm not on a killstreak or some1 else is having a killstreak progression. End the end we lost... But i was one of the top score and that guy only had like what? 9 kills on the entire game? those noobs... sickening...

Personally, I have a kit with Cold Blood and Stinger just to do that blardy job.

One good thing about Harrier. It's a good harassment/distraction tool.

Like in Afghan map. The usual sniping/camping cliff area. Just drop 1 harrier on top of 'em before you flash and charge up the hill.

Or in Domination maps, just use Harrier to 'guard' points or pin down enemies within buildings to buy more time for domi points to tick. So harriers don't even need to kill stuff to be useful.

same here... have a cold blooded Anti air kit...

at times, if there is enemy chopper or pavlow... i straight away come out harrier, then Chopper goes bye bye... XD

The Harrier can attack other air units too right?

yes... and effective too... few seconds then chopper is down... u can see on your mini map... the harrier slowly face towards the enemy chopper/harrier/heli/pavlow.... and shoot it down with it's rockets..

lies!!!

LOL! It's True!!!

pics or it didnt happen!

lol i have never seen it happen before @.@|| otherwise it would me meaning less for me to carry that stinger on me back.

LOL it does.... u guys dont know that?

lol dunno cause everytime I see plane or heli I stinger d

Check YOUTUBE dude.

The harrier DOES shoot down other killstreaks except UAV and AC-130.

see this

It is also possible to shot down the harrier by using the CG but is kinda RISKY.!

yea... the CG fly here and there kinda hard to aim the harrier and not to mention others from below trying to take u down...

can use predator also to take harrier down...

This post has been edited by kr898: Apr 8 2010, 08:23 PM

Well, I have accidentally shot down my harrier and pavelow on my ac130...

Haha I once shot down enemy team's harrier together with the apache, so nice.

Anyway I quite agree that skidrow make lots of air support useless. I once got chopper gunner in this map, always ogt no more than 5 kills... ....

Happen to me once too.

Nothing more fun than placing a sentry gun, and just as you want to pick it up you accidentally pressed knife. it goes boom!

Yesterday was playing at the office map. I was having a killstreak of 20 (i dont have nuke killstreak. I had predator missle, harrier, pavelow)

Ppl were complaining lag and etc and I didnt know I was the host. All kept talking crap and cursing etc asking noob host to leave. Eh hellooo! I didnt sign up to be a host, and its not hard to tell someone to leave politely instead of "FK u MCB noob host, leave lar!"...

After knowing I was the host, I left the game (sigh first ever 20 killstreak! thanks to harrier and pavelow)...

Now if only I can do harrier, pavelow, nuke! lol..

oh how we love the matchmaking system...

You're so nice to leave... I'd only do it after the round

Everyone was already cursing and complaining. Worst still, saying lag, cant kill me... Wall hacking, etc etc...

I just couldnt be bothered as I didnt enable my nuke killstreak. If I had a nuke, and i'm like 4 kills away, heck i'd try to hit a nuke before I quit lol..

Next challenge is harrier, chopper gunner, nuke lol..
