The EMP is a Support Killstreak that is acquired at 18 kills.
Overview[]
When called in, the EMP will destroy all enemy killstreaks such as turrets and aircraft, overlays enemy radar with static, destroy all enemy equipment, and enemies cannot call in their own killstreaks, including a Deadswitch. However, allies will not be affected by the EMP at all.
Strategy[]
The EMP can be used to effectively destroy an enemy aircraft which is harrassing your team. Additionally, enemies cannot access their radar nor call in new killstreaks, which can allow your team to assault the enemy team.
However, the EMP needs 18 kills to be acquired, thus it may be wiser to switch it out for a better Support option, such as a UAV, Ammo Airdrop, or Dragonfire.
Overall, the EMP can be an effective killstreak, but the high kill count needed to get it may prove daunting to players. It can be treated as a lesser Deadswitch, only capable of disrupting enemy radar, stopping enemy killstreaks from being deployed and destroying all enemy equipment.
