Flashbang in Call of Duty: What Does It Mean?

A Flashbang in the Call of Duty series is a tactical grenade used to disorient opponents by emitting a bright flash and loud bang. It is a crucial tool in both multiplayer and campaign modes for gaining a strategic advantage.

Mechanics of a Flashbang

Flashbangs temporarily blind and deafen affected players, disrupting their ability to see or hear for a short duration. When thrown, the grenade detonates after a brief delay, affecting players within its effective radius. This tool is especially useful in tight corridors or when breaching rooms.

Strategic Use of Flashbangs

  • Using a flashbang before entering a room can disable enemies, allowing for a safer entry.
  • Flashbangs are effective in objective-based modes where opponents may be clustered, such as Domination or Hardpoint.
  • They can be used defensively to cover a retreat or to delay enemy advances.

Countering Flashbangs

  1. Equip Tactical Mask or similar perks to reduce the effects of flashbangs.
  2. Turn away from the flashbang just before it detonates to minimize its blinding effect.
  3. Use cover effectively to block the line of sight to the flashbang's detonation point.
