S2C3 - Search and Destroy

You only get one spawn per round, so tactics are crucial.

Eliminating all enemies wins the match.

Destroying the objective by planting the bomb and defending it until detonation wins the match.

Defusing the bomb after it has been planted by the enemy wins the match.

A kill nets you +500 XP, an assist is +250 XP, planting the bomb is +250 XP, and defusing it is +500 XP.

Avoid rushing with the bomb as you become a target. Let your team make the initial move to gauge enemy defenses before planting.

Defending is generally easier; secure routes to objectives and be patient.

Consider using Claymores, C4, and motion sensors for defense.

For defending, sniper classes or suppressed assault rifles are effective due to time limitations and enemy impatience.

For attacking, consider using the LIGHTWEIGHT perk for faster movement or HARDLINE to potentially earn killstreaks.

The NINJA perk is useful for players aiming for a Ninja Defuse.

Using a personal JAMMER in the equipment slot can provide protection from enemy Spy Planes when attacking.

If an enemy Spy Plane is active, fall back, deploy your jammer, and use a Strela to take it out.

For killstreaks (KSRs), it's often more effective to have SPY PLANES and COUNTER SPY planes available for securing plants and moving to defuse areas, rather than high-level killstreaks.

Using a HARDLINE class for recon is recommended. If the enemy gets recon first, retreat and supplement with a JAMMER or MOTION SENSOR, or use a Strela to eliminate enemy recon.

Avoid the SCAVANGER Perk as the max kill count per round is 5.

On the defend side, HARDLINE with claymore is a strong setup.
