Modern Warfare 2 Killstreaks

Modern Warfare 2 killstreaks are important rewards that players can earn by recording a certain amount of kills in a row without dying. They can also earn these rewards when they gather enough points during a match, which is particularly good if their kill-to-death ratio isn’t always excellent. These killstreaks can be activated by the players and are designed to give them an advantage over their opponents.

In the game, players can pick between 19 Modern Warfare 2 killstreaks rewards, regardless if they unlock them with kills or scores. That’s a lot of choices to make, especially when they can only bring no more than three killstreaks into each match.
