So, youll want to choose wisely.
Its also worth remembering that players can toggle between killstreaks and scorestreaks to suit the way they play.
Lets take a look at whats on offer.

SAM Turret
Description:Launch a targeted missile strike against air vehicles.
If no-ones using an air vehicle then the SAM Turret becomes null and avoid.
Considering it took you four kills to get, there’s better options on offer.

Guardian-SC
Description:A beam shaped, non-lethal, area denial weapon.
Enemies will suffer reduced movement speed, blurred vision, and removed UI.
While its non-lethal, the effects still give you a slight upper-hand when you might really need it.
Care Package
Description:Call in a random killstreak package to your location.
Roll the dice, see what happens.
Swarm
Description:Deploys a large number of mosquito drones to provide blanket coverage over the entire area.
Fans of the franchise will recognise this killstreak fromCall of Duty: Black OpsII.
At 15 kills, you’re able to release a large amount of mosquito drones at once.
This provides blanket coverage to a specific area, enabling you to hunker down whilst enemies take sustained damge.
If used correctly, it can accrue you a nice amount of kills, however.
Cluster Mine
Description:Throw a rig that launches a cluster of smaller mines within the immediate area.
A Cluster Mine does what it says on the tin.
Emergency Airdrop
Description:Call in three random killstreak care packages to your location.
Youre swapping one for three, but is it worth the gamble?
Carpet Bomb
Description:Call in a bomber that releases a large line of explosives along its path.
Bomb Drone
Description:A remote-controlled drone with an attached C4 charge.
Wheelson-HS
Description:Remote controlled amphibious vehicle with auto sentry capabilities.
This ground drone has impressive firepower if manoeuvred correctly, but you’ll need eight kills to secure it.
Mortar Strike
Description:Signal several waves of mortars to attack a location.
The location is a trio of random areas rather than something that can be manually controlled.
If the randomization is working in your favor, then great.
If not, then you might want to think about one of the other damage-dealing killstreaks on our list.
Cruise Missile
Description:Control a long-range cruise missile with boost capabilities.
Precision Airstrike
Description:Call in twin jets for a precision strike along the best available path.
The Precision Airstike will absolutely give you and your team a combat advantage.
Mosquito Drone
Description:Explosive drone that circles the area around where the drone is launched.
Dive bombs on enemies it spots and explodes.
All this without you having to lift a finger after setting it off.
Juggernaut Recon
Description:Juggernaut Recon gear delivered by care package.
The suit is equipped with a radar that pings nearby enemies.
Contains a riot shield, Haymaker, and smoke grenade.
Remote Turret
Description:Automated turret that scans for nearby enemies and fires incendiary based rounds.
Counter UAV
Description:A drone that scrambles all enemy minimaps.
Four kills for this one, so not much at all for the reward you’re given.
EMP
Description:Electromagnetic pulse to disrupt enemy Killstreaks and equipment.
Helicopter in the sky, player beneath it.
Call in the Gunship.
Juggernaut
Description:Juggernaut assault gear delivered by care package.
The minigun will drop when the Juggernaut dies.
Chopper Gunner
Description:Control an assault chopper armoed with a turret and air-to-land missiles.
A rival to the Gunship, the Chopper Gunner is a powerful killstreak to use against enemies.
What’s more annoying than a turret?
SAE
Description:Call in a trio of jets to release aerial explosives onto specified targets.
UAV
Description:UAV recon ship that reveals enemy locations on the minimap.
You have to back the smaller rewards in a sea of juggernauts, jets, helicopters, and drones.
