(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This thread will detail all the high killstreak their features and overall usefullness.Ive called every killstreak in and all the extremly high ones multiple times.I mostly play bonus mode so this review and information is intended for those maps as certian killstreaks will preform better than others depending on which map and mode.I've included the number I called in brackets to show my experience with each one.WHen I say high killstreaks I mean dragonfire and up.I've also Perm unlocked K9 and swarm.

Dragonfire(23)kills with(60)-I find this killstreak to be one of the worst ones due to it not having stealth abilities like A.G.R and it only takes a few bullets to destroy(4 by my count).The best way to use it I find is to fly low and right up in the enemies face as it only takes a few of your bullets to kill a enemy and this gives better accuracy also never stop firing the machine gun as it cant overheat.If playing a indoors map than flying inside buildings will help.You can zoom into enemies with L1 which can be usefull.This killstreak does not have stealth abilities and will always appear on the enemies radar

AGR(419)kills with(2687)-I find this killstreak to be the most usefull.It has stealth abilities and it will only show up if you fire its missiles.Firing the machine gun does not make it appear on radar.Always take control of it as if you depend on the A.I you will only get a small number of kills.Also when killing enemies its best to keep the machine gun running and use the missile as the primary way of killing as these will kill enemies in 1 shot.Best to drive UP to their spawn but not in it as if your in their spawn it might change and enemies can spawn behind you.This scorestreak has a good deal of health and your biggest threat is black hats and flash bangs/shock charges.Overall this is one of the best score streaks.also if a enemy is beside a car shoot a missile at the car,this has a chance of giving you 100 points towards your scorestreak rather than 15 and if you notice a sentry gun or guardian try and blow it up as this gives more points towards your scorestreak

Stealth Chopper( 18 )kills with( 57 )-this is not that powerfull and the agr will net more kills.the A.I on it is okay and is better than the A.G.R's A.I.The main plus with this is that your not controlling it so you can go out and get more kills(with the increase chance of dying).I only average around 5-8 kills with this no matter where I place it.Most players that I've encounted wont even bother trying to shoot it down.

Orbital Vsat( 26 )assist( 148 )-this is one of the better killstreaks as not only can you tell where a enemy is but you get assist with it two.A draw back thou is that your putting yourself in danger(only if your using a high scorestreak setup)and have a slightly high chance of dying than with something that is controlable.I personally prefer the agr over this as by this mark im usually running low on ammo(fal).Overall this scorestreak is one of the best because it helps your whole team out and nets you alot of points but you leave yourself open a little bit to errent grenades or other things.

Escort drone(1)kills with(0)-for the amount of points it takes to unlock this I find it not worth it.Ive used around 10(nine from carepackages)and I find it does not help me much even on a map like nuketown or hijacked.not much to say about this as I never use it cause I find it does not bring the kills in

Emp Systems(1)assist(12)-I like this killstreak as it has alot of uses.Destroys all equiptment and prevents all scorestreaks and bring in the assist points.I personally dont use it as I run with lodestar and K9 and the agr brings in more points than this.Overall the few times ive seen it used and that ive used it I found it pretty usefull if your a rushing player or objective player.Biggest draw back it only stays with 40 seconds. and with emp grenades doing the same thing plus the chance of 50 assist points I find them a better choice

Warthog (44) kills with(220)-This killstreak is "fun" to use as the strafe runs are highlight accurate.I believe it does five total strafe runs before it leaves.It can be shotdown but ive never ever seen one get shotdown(it has 1 or two sets of flares).What I like most about this is that it provides a major distraction on the enemy allowing you to go out and capture objectives easier or get kills a little easier

Lodestar( 168 )kills with(1659)-this is my favorite killstreak and the second most powerfull overall.It has some little known features that make it a fun killstreak.First the missile can be rapid fired so once you earn it keep your finger on R1 as tapping it will slow the firespead down.Second it has two camera modes Black and white with infered and color.I prefer the color view as I can see potential object(Fences shrubs ect)easier and navigate the missile around it easier.Third it has the ability to zoom in at any time with l1.If your unfamilar with the lodestar than zooming in is not recommended as it does make the missile tricky to control if you have not gotten use to the lodestar but if you have experience with it zooming it gives you a high degree of accuracy.The best way to use it I find is to zoom in after you fire a missile so you can navigate it around fences and in windows.The blast radius on this is not too big and you can kill your self with it(ive done this 4 times)i average about 18-20kills with this

Vtol Warship(22)kills(232)-In terms of power this is the most powerfull scorestreak.Like the lodestar it has the same two camera modes and it can be zoomed in also.you can order the pilot to move around with L2 and the pilot does not fly to random spots.The pilot will directly to a enemy or a enemy spawn.IT has two weapons a gatlot gun which is superpowerfull,And a volly of rocket pods which I think are guided like the hellstorms missile.The biggest draw back with it and which hold it back alot is that it can be destroyed by unguided rockets and missile in 1 shot.over 70% of my vtols have by shotdown with unguided rockets even with me moving around the map.Mainly due to its size and slower speed.It does have 2 flares and ive never been shotdown with just a FHJ launcher

K9( 48 )kills with (411)-This is a very usefull scorestreak and is not as hard to get as one may imagine(as in practice its only 10 kills[agr]+lodestar will certinally earn you it).The dogs are very accurate and alot of them come.This also distracts the enemy a great deal as they are preoccupied shooting them(which gives their position away) or running to a corner and hidding.Also no perk can defend against them.The only drawback is that they are weak and give 50points for killing.But they are also very agile.

Swarm(6)kills with(53)-For this being the last scorestreak I find it not worth it.Its major drawbacks are that if someone is using blind eye than the swarm will not got after them.Also even with me lodestaring the enemy to oblivion its start pretty hard to reach.Once you call it in you will see a swarm of hundreads of hunterkillers circling the map but dont be overjoyed this is just a illusion only a few of this will actually kill the enemy.In all my uses only one time have I gotten more kills with a swarm than attack dogs and I was equipting both swarm and attack dogs together.Overall if your not after the title and are looking for points I would say avoid this scorestreak unless trey arch decides to beef it up some.Ive read some player comparing it to the MOAB and its not in that catagory at all.Even on nuketown it does or at least did not do much work for me personally.

Thanks for reading this was just a brief overview of the higher scorestreaks If you have any information to add just post below and If its usefull it will be edited in.

Does anyone have information to add?Especially with emp systems.I just noticed they last for 40 seconds which is weak

Didn't know the AGR didn't show up while firing the MG. But then again i just use the low killstreaks as i can get them more often.

Thanks for that tip.

Escort Drone is very good. Maybe better than Stealth Chopper. It is perfect for aggresive play or grabbing objectives and it right there after VSAT. I have used Escort Drone 15 times with 75 kills. Warthog I have 15 uses and only 50 kills. Warthog isn't as good as the points needed for it suggests. It can get you 8 kills or 2. It's not garbage but Warthog is better off just to try and get calling card or if you wanna stay mobile.

Stealth Chopper is very good and is essentially a beefed up version of an Attack Helicopter.

K9 unit is good the worser your teammates are. If you play with better players then not so much. The dogs are so slow that friendly streaks and good teammates typically kill the enemy before those slow dogs get there. I've had K9 that got 1 kill and one time I got 14 with them.

I have never used Swarm since I prestige quick and I wanted K9 unit calling card first. I didn't think it was worth using a unlock before prestige 7. However, from what I can see it is damn good. There aren't very many people running Blind Eye and even the people that do run in packs. Meaning a non blind eye guy next to blind eye guy equals double kill. Swarm is also the streak that makes people dashboard the most often lol.

Lodestar obviously is second best after VSAT and is basically like MW2's AC130 with Danger Close Pro. I once had 30 kills in one Lodestar and I can only imagine how many really good players get. VTOL Warship is unlocked so early that it's worth using in the beginning of prestiges and is like a slightly weaker Osprey Gunner from MW3.

AGR is fun and can help teammates capture flags and clear out rooms. It's also funny when enemies think it's a care package dropping lol.

Who runs blind eye in this game? Aside from me. All i see is hardline, or ghost

Lighting Strike, AGR, Escort Drone, Chopper, Loadstar, Warth Hog are my favorties.

Open Maps I use the Warth Hog( Carrier, Slums, Turbine, and even Hijacked it gets a ton of kills)

Loadstar is good but the times I used it I have people who either run in buildings or it gets shot down. I have bad luck when I use it for some reason.

Lighting strike is good for Domination. It clears out a area quick and gets you tons of kills.

AGR I usually throw it in the other teams spawn or middle of the map. It gets me up to 5 - 9 kills.

Escort Drone once you got it u can rush the map with ease.

Chopper is good. It gets alot of hit markers but can get you a easy 5 or 6 kills.

very few just the point that a perk can tottally stop the highest scorestreak and if someone has a anti air class(I do) than you can just switch to that while swarm is up just a small point

That is why I feel the stealth chopper is super underpowered Like you said it can get you 5 or 6kills well a lightning strike can get you 3-6 if you postion it right plus it gives you a portal uav.For it being a higher scorestreak its pretty weak.

The only thing that you could argue that makes Stealth Chopper underpowered is the fact that it alerts the enemy it's coming in. Otherwise it does what it's supposed to do. It's not a low streak but it's not really high either especially compared to Lodestar, Warship, Dogs and Swarm. It's a a good killstreak in the 2nd or 3rd selection spot.

Not very many people use Blind Eye so if you put Stealth Chopper near enemy spawn or depending on the map in your spawn(in case they flip) you can get 6+ kills with it. Which is actually good. Escort Drone costs like 150 score more and it is crazy good. The only Black Ops 1 killstreak that guaranteed you 3-6 kills was Chopper Gunner or Dogs so these Black Ops 2 streaks are just right. If anything Warthog is closer to underpowered.

But most people don't really do that. They just try and hide or are stupid and just keep running out in the open. Hell Dogs can be killed easily and if you go to an elelevated area they are useless and they give the enemy points for killing them. Also luckily spawn protection is gone so as long as you can weed the enemies out the buildings you can force them to spawn outside and if a Blind Eye guy is next to non Blind Eye guy they both die anyways.

Vsat - Warthog - Loadstar
My favorite setup :p
