Scorestreaks are one of the main aspects that separate Call of Duty from any other popular first-person shooter.
Earning score, playing the objective, and going on killstreaks all reward you with powerful streaks that lead to a higher place on the leaderboard.Black Ops 6features some particularly strong scorestreaks that can obliterate an enemy team if used correctly.
However, as is the case with any Call of Duty title, there are also some streaks you want to stay away from. It can be difficult to identify which streaks are worth using and which ones aren’t, as there are 16 in total.
To make that task a little easier for you, we have put together a list of the top 10 scorestreaks to use in Black Ops 6. You can seewhat those streaks areand what they do in the list below.
10Archangel Launcher
Launch from the Sky
Rocket launcher that fires remote-piloted rockets. Magazine size of two.
The Archangel Launcher is unlocked for all players by default in Black Ops 6, meaning you always have access to iteven if you prestige. While it is a lower streak, don’t let that fool you. The Archangel can be an incredibly powerful streak if you know how to use it.
When you activate the launcher, you’ll pull out a large weapon. You can fire two self-guided rockets with the launcher activated.
These self-guided rockets can be flown for over a dozen seconds and blow up manually or when they hit something. If you guide the missiles correctly, you can earn some easy kills that don’t require much effort.
Unleash a Barrage
Launch a missile bombardment in a targeted area for a duration.
Next up is the LDBR, which is essentially the Mortar Strike from previous Call of Duty titles. The LDBR is a concentrated barrage of missiles that you call in by aiming a laser at a specific area.
When you choose your area, the missile barrage arrives within a couple of seconds. Any enemy caught in the barrage will die on impact unless they’re using the Flak Jacket perk.
The LDBR is only as effective as the area you place it. If you choose an area where enemies are spawning or on an objective, it can rack up kills. However, if you don’t pick a populated area, you likely won’t get many kills, if any at all.
8Dreadnought
Rain down Hellfire
Heavily modified gunship equipped with multiple cannons, rocket pods, and a Daisy Cutter bomb.
Don’t let the ranking of the Dreadnought trip you up; it’s easily the most lethal scorestreak in Black Ops 6. The reason it’s placed eighth on the list is due to the score required to earn it.
1,800 score is incredibly difficult to achieve, even if you use the Bankroll perk. As such, it’s not considered one of the top streaks since you likely won’t be earning it too often.
However, if you do manage to earn a Dreadnought, you’re in for a wild ride. This is basically the AC-130 from previous games and you have access to a chopper with cannons, bombs, and rockets. It’s very difficult to shoot the Dreadnought down and you have well over a minute inside the streak.

7Watchdog Helo
Help from Above
Watchdog Helo that engages enemies and pings enemy locations for your team.
The Watchdog Helo is up next and it’s the first scorestreak on this list to be completely hands-off. All you have to do once you earn it is call it in and let the helo do all the rest.
The helo follows youaround the map, shooting at anyone who’s within close proximity to your location. It also pings enemies around you, making it easier to locate them in case the helo can’t get to them.
While it’s somewhat easy to shoot the Watchdog Helo down, it’s a default streak that makes life difficult for the enemy team in Black Ops 6.
6A.G.R. Mk 1
Patrol the Ground
Remotely piloted quick assault tank armed with a machine gun and grenade launcher.
One of the most underrated scorestreaks in Black Ops 6 is the A.G.R. Mk 1. This manually-controlled battle drone has a plethora of health, access to both a grenade launcher and machine gun, and can kill enemies extremely quickly.
The A.G.R. can be slightly difficult to control on the ground, especially if you have to move backwards, but you get the hang of it after a few rides.
Once you master the A.G.R., which is easier with theright controller settings, your enemies will dread the sight of the drone approaching them.
5Hellstorm
Quick and Painful
Control a long-range missile with brake and boost capabilities and secondary missiles.
The Hellstorm is a classic Treyarch scorestreak that has returned in Black Ops 6. Sitting right in the middle of the streaks in terms of score cost, you should be able to earn Hellstorms rather frequently if you play objective-based game modes.
If you’re not familiar with the Hellstorm, it’s a missile that you control from the sky. you may choose to land the missile on an enemy or you can launch three secondary missiles before landing the main one.
These secondary missiles are self-piloted but can be aimed at enemies on the ground. The Hellstorm is best used on a more open map, as enemies can’t be hit if they have a roof over their heads.
4Counter UAV
Scramble the Map
Launch a drone that scrambles enemy minimaps.
Not all scorestreaks need to be lethal to inflict damage on the enemy team. The perfect example of this is the Counter UAV, which blocks the enemy team’s mini-map for one minute. Enemies can counter this by using the Vigilance perk, but that’s not too popular of a pick amongst players.
With the Counter UAV active, enemies can’t see where their teammates are or your red dots when firing a nonsuppressed weapon. This severely cuts off their awareness, making enemies easier to locate and eliminate.

3Scout Pulse/UAV
Take Back the Advantage
Scout Pulse: 400
Scout Pulse: Radar ping that reveals nearby enemies on the user’s minimap.
UAV: Aerial recon drone that reveals enemy locations on the minimap for your team.
Scout Pulse and UAV are being grouped together since they essentially accomplish the same goal with one minor difference. Both scorestreaks sweep the mini-map and display a red dot for any enemy not wearing the Ghost perk. This allows you to see enemy locations and is the best way to build your current killstreak.
The difference between the Scout Pulse and UAV is the Scout Pulse only sweeps the radar for you. The UAV sweeps the radar for your whole team and rewards you with extra score every time a teammate gets a kill with the UAV active.
2Chopper Gunner
The Match Ender
Take control of the door gun turret on an assault chopper.
Next to the Dreadnought, the Chopper Gunner is the second deadliest scorestreak in Black Ops 6. While it still costs a whopping 1,600 score, that can be brought down to 1,450 with the Bankroll perk, making it much more manageable to earn.
When you activate the Chopper Gunner, you step into the side of a helicopter with a machine gun and unlimited rounds at your disposal. You can see enemies highlighted in red on the ground below and from there, shoot away.
The Chopper Gunner in Black Ops 6 does require you to lead your shots, but you get used to that quirk rather quickly. The cherry on top with the Chopper Gunner is rock-and-roll music blares in the background as you mow enemies down.

Combat specialties have changed the game, but some things have stayed the same.
Knowledge Overflowing
High altitude recon plane reveals enemy position and direction on the minimap in real time.
Finally, the top scorestreak in Black Ops 6 is the HARP. Otherwise known as the VSAT, HATR, Blackbird, or Advanced UAV, the HARP is a massive upgrade over the standard UAV.
The HARP displays enemies as constant red arrows on your team’s mini-map for well over one minute. Knowing the exact location and direction of any given enemy is a massive advantage in Black Ops 6. This allows you to earn far more kills than normal and possibly build towards one of the Chopper Gunner or Dreadnought.
