Our list below shows the best killstreaks in MW2 so far. We’ll update the list with any new killstreaks we learn about as they get added to the game.
UAV – 4 Kills
You might scoff, but the UAV is a staple of pretty much every COD game, and for very good reasons. Not only is this a pretty cheap killstreak, requiring only four kills to unlock, but it also gives you a bunch of points from UAV Assists and can turn the tide against the enemy if your team utilizes it effectively.
Care Package – 5 Kills
The care package is a top pick if you’re into gambling. This killstreak drops a box with a random killstreak inside, and there’s a chance you’ll get one of those super high-end streaks from it.
Basically, this streak has the potential to enable stuff like the Juggernaut for only five kills. Madness.
Precision Air Strike – 6 Kills
Don’t know the precision air strike. Though it and the Mortor Strike are both awesome options, the Precision Air Strike is more accurate, and thus gives you much better odds of actually hitting your target.
Stealth Bomber – 10 Kills
Sure, this one has quite a high cost, but its utility isn’t just in getting you even more kills. This stealth bomber carpet bombs in a straight line across the map. In many matches, you can use the Stealth Bomber as a form of battlefield control.
In a well-coordinated team, this can be a killer tool in your arsenal.
Juggernaut – 15 Kills
It would be hard to list the best killstreaks in MW2 without talking about Juggernaught. This beast requires 15 kills, but you’re almost guaranteed to double that by using this streak. It gives you a set of Juggernaught assault gear with a minigun.
Not only does this make you insanely hard to kill, but you can dish out insane damage, and even when you do go down, you drop the minigun for your team to use. Perfect.
