The skulker perk allows you to move faster when knocked down from the tempest. This helps you to escape a lot quicker

Someguy1237 yeah true. I use it a lot when I’m knifing and it’s also good for sniping as you can peek around corners quickly but thats really all

[@haydenprice9431]

Dang I didn’t think of tac mask as being that strong of a perk but this changed my mind

One of the best counters to the dog is standing in barbed wire

I did that and didnt work

[@vpawnvfianeh2663]

Tomahawks will also 1 hit the dog 👍🏻

Lizandro Chilel I beg to differ, what’s your psn or gamertag? Bet you aren’t any good

[@butIwantpewee]

Cold Blooded is actually very good vs the seeker drone, it doesn't offer complete immunity but it does vastly reduce the radius from which it will detect you. Without a perk it can detect you from anywhere on the map iirc. With CB though it really needs to be within about 5 meters or it can't see you. In your examples you were just a bit too close to see it but it is very effective. Also, a team mate shooting it really helps if you do get tagged with it and miss the skill check, help your team mates out guys! Same story with the dog really, if you're running CB it will come for you eventually but it almost always gets distracted by a team mate who isn't running CB. So technically it's not a hard counter, but in reality it is.

[@ZensayOW]

Pete Johnson Damn. Cold Blooded sounds like a powerful perk. Unfortunate I can’t give up my Dexterity haha.

[@Theredeyedjedi]

*BOONK GANG SQUISHY GANG*

[@mikoshihive]

For Ajax’s shield you can use batteries cluster and kill him if you stick it to his shield

[@TygeRCOD]

Your right I remember now. Another thing I forgot 😂

[@aynageddon5073]

I think that the best way to counter Ajax is a Molotov

[@ZensayOW]

aynageddon Could work but you gotta spend that 1 class point on the Molotov. And I find the 10-point class system restricting.

[@aynageddon5073]

True I hate that grenades and shut damn by have their own slot but I always go knife only so having that would be great for a class without tomahawks

[@aynageddon5073]

I had a stroke

[@ArisB21]

If a specialist is using its abilities just run away/keep your distance. Nice advice mate, never thought of that.

[@Anuralls]

They should make it like black ops 3 where u can only choose either your equipment or ability, then you won't get spammed by both during a match

[@bradley2841]

Make it so equipment besides the specialists ones have a use if that happens

[@yaboijayden_8885]

No

People that disagree with me must be some next level prestige 1s with negative KDRs that can only get kills with abilities cause they're so shit. Fucking dick heads

[@wika1984]

How to counter tempest? You run away and hide. That's...sigh...wow.

[@lucky_-1y]

It is stupidly strong, but run away works 100% of the time

[@irishkyle21]

TygeR - COD Tips and Tutorials Cold Blooded helps with Recons Vison Pulse and Censor Dart.

[@logankrauss1098]

Did you test you player running or sprinting? You have to be sprinting for ghost to work in this game (which sucks because you’re visible while reloading) Does ghost do anything to Vision Pulse if you’re sprinting? Also engineer can see sensor darts :)

[@ZensayOW]

Logan Krauss I think Ghost doesn’t reveal you as long for both the sensor dart and vision pulse, IF you’re sprinting. It also doesn’t show you on the minimap if there’s a UAV and you’re sprinting.

[@lucadiederich8468]

This video is an other proof, that you cant do anything against specialists...

[@SamWilsonMusician]

Torben Bruhns seine Mutter if you’re dying to specialists and their equipment a lot then you’re just a bad player. Very easy to counter most of them and you can just have some skill and kill prophet and seraph while they’re trying to line up their shot on you. It isn’t hard...

[@Gucci_Lou]

For Nomad's K9 Unit, I have found High Caliber to work best against Juneau. It makes sense since she isn't a normal piece of equipment so FMJ 1/2 doesn't help but increase damage on the gun, and that she has hitboxes that can mimic similarly to the ones found on players.

[@sillyslimes4222]

2:09 That transition is soooo clean.

[@thatsalotofdamage2663]

I have died to a specialist since i watched this video thanks👍

[@jdmcarboy64]

Aside the point, the tempest will destroy and score streak in 1-2 shots. Snipers nest - 2 UAV/ counter / sentry - 1 Support chopper - 2 Get those dark ops done easier with this advice.

[@louis6063]

Your genuinely one of the only good cod youtubers ive seen minus the pros bro👍🏼

I can't believe this video was even necessary ... People should use their brain and not wait for eveyrthing to be ready for them

[@xxphantomxx3459]

normies everywhere I just watched bc I was curious I am good at the game anyways and get my special very fast

[@Xackory]

Shut up

[@MrTeaelsea]

Another semi-counter for zero is when your HUD is scrambled, it still shows real red dots for enemies, and those are a darker red than the decoys

[@TygeRCOD]

That's true, I should of mentioned that, I look for that all the time.

[@zayd9398]

MrTeaelsea if you’re playing on colourblind mode it’s the other way round

[@xaceez6537]

I found a glitch to counter nomads dog, Basically what you have to do is melee the dog - or the air - a split second before the dog attacks you (best if the dog is in the air jumping towards you) and he will go straight through you and land on the floor and become glitched being unable to move, so you can get really easy shots on the dog as it is stuck/glitched on the floor

[@aynageddon5073]

Cold blooded decreases range that the seeker can soft detect you so it beeps and locks on to you when it’s much closer and go for your teammates more thN you

[@lucasa2172]

Half the time the dog walks right past me and I just laugh

[@pyromaniac0968]

So ive been reading the comments and im left with one odd question. Does engineer work on the strike team so i can see them and counter them with the tomahawk? Thinking about making a specific class for the dog and strike team

[@ammoniumammonide]

Tac Mask also lets you get up faster when you get hit with the tempest.

[@howardron543]

What really grinds my gears is the fact that lethal specialist abilities charge up faster than the nonlethal ones... I go from using Crash abilities maybe 1 or 2 times in a dom match and I see the enemy use the fucking Battery 3 times a match

[@siyphe_1016]

That was a nice transition at 2:09

[@wero2386]

Im new to this this channel because youtube recommended me so i subscribe and turn on notifications

[@ammoniumammonide]

Any explosive also works against Ajax's shield. Direct impact with a launcher will kill him.

[@itzReEvolution]

I loved how you transitioned that with the war machine

[@bluedoge497]

2:07 that tranison tho

[@lucianraphael9527]

One time I was behind a tempest and they shot someone infront of them but the lightning still arced to me when i was behind the tempest

[@RB-vv6ti]

Cold blooded does help against the seeker mine, it won’t come after you unless you get really close to it.

[@seag7432]

High caliber also is very effective against Juno as well as strike team members.

[@EclipseCoD]

It is apparent they had to nerf the hell out of the specialist since release. Especially nomad, Ajax, and zero. Zero got nerfed so hard she's borderline useless. Everytime I try to use her to stop the thresher, attack chopper, snipers nest etc., The other team seemingly teleports to my location in my spawn and kills me. Nomads dog is derpy as hell and dies easily.

[@XxRamPaYg3xX]

Nomads mine makes a distinct noise, so if you walk into a doorway and hear almost like a buzzing noise just don't go in there 😭

[@ammoniumammonide]

FMJ II rips through the barricade and wire.

[@eib8412]

Love your vids, you and Xclusive Ace are the most informative COD youtubers around. Only other thing I can think of is that when Firebreak uses Reactor Core even though he gets loads of extra health against bullets it still only takes 1 or 2 melee hits to bring him down if you are close and quick enough.

[@eib8412]

Oh yeah and for Prophets Seeker thingy you can climb on top of something and it will lose interest in you.

[@TygeRCOD]

Thank you very much and yeah your right

[@vinhdaboi6302]

don't worry about having to equip certain perks or wasting your ultimate ability just to counter specialists and just play and you will get the hang of it, whether it is retreating to a strategic position to just shooting the dog like the people that shoot seeker drones and uavs

[@davidadu8559]

Using engineer for nomad’s dog is actually really good

[@lukethomas5285]

Treyarch should have implemented a specialist level restricted idea. Where if you’re level 1, you can start out with a simple specialist. Like crash or recon, then as you level up you gain better specialists. The specialists give a master prestige power, to a level 13. Its a shame.

[@TheMightyBat88]

The strobe light on the shotgun also works well against the dog 👍

[@ZensayOW]

I’m a Battery main. Love blowing up Torque behind his barricades, fucking up everyone in my way. Nothing’s stopping me haha.

[@fernandocastillo3187]

The helion salvo can counter ajax with a direct hit which is easy to do

[@vtrulygrimm777]

The only specialist that counters Zero is Zero. While she’s using her Ice Pick you can EMP her and it will disable it mid use.

[@Thought_it_up]

Wow this makes me feel like tac mask is a very under rated perk. It was the most common defense to most specialists.

[@TygeRCOD]

Definitely, tac mask is awesome for staying alive

[@thechazz8080]

Yeah but you give up scavanger, And I run a peacekeeper which not many run due to it being a crate weapon. And you can give up other things but you either have to give up another perk, the tier 2 and 3 perks have gung-ho, ghost, cold blooded, lightweight etc

[@lukewinegarden5247]

Battery’s cluster can kill Ajax with his shield

[@mingi1489]

Luke Winegarden yeah no shit

[@victortamez7316]

Unless it’s fortified tho. Even if u stick it to his shield the fortify saves him

[@nathanielwilson6705]

Tac mask counters the seeker drone but only when your not directly infront of it

[@aynageddon5073]

You can walk next to the sensor dart and tax deploy and hold square to destroy it

Seraph’s annihilator also penetrates through Ajax’s shield

Trophy system can destroy an already deployed sensor dart

[@tygebeneken3260]

Really nice video!❤ Last week I did all this testing myself, because I needed those counters for my competetive matches. I just opened my own clan and I thought it would be important to know how to avoid specialists and their abilities:) Could you make a video about Hot spots and lines of sight or something like that?

[@ZensayOW]

Tyge Beneken There’s already an interesting series going on on XclusiveAce’s channel. He covers lines of sights and hotspots. Might be exactly what you’re looking for.

[@CAJfur]

Thank you. I think specialists have a place in the game but man they can be so annoying!. Also the light on the sg12 can stun the dog for about 3 seconds or so.

[@armanbar7558]

Does cold blooded let you counter sensor dart? The description led me to believe so :/. Another tip, it typically takes a few min (depending on game mode) before anyone gets their specialist abilities. So at the start of the game I always check the enemy team's specialists by looking at the scoreboard and switch to my resistive classes when I think they might have their abilities available.

[@ZensayOW]

Arman Bar That’s so smart and I don’t think enough people do it.

[@aynageddon5073]

You can one hit ammo supply with knife as well

[@peyj7977]

Tac mask shortens the time your down after getting shocked from a tempest

[@Lääpintämies]

If you go to water with Ajax’s shield the shield will just disappear

[@DaniSlot]

So the tac-mask won't affect the resistence against tempest?

[@invictious8373]

Also it seems when you jump, nomads dog can't get you at the peek of your jump, so if you time it right(which I know is not likely) he will be put of or miss his first bite
