Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Tactical Knives Counters Campers

by Nathan Sep 08,2025

In Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 multiplayer, players constantly share remarkable final kill clips showcasing their skills. But few compare to this jaw-dropping ricochet shot.

Ricochet Blades serve as special ammunition for the D1.3 Sector sidearm, introduced during last month's divisive Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover event. These bouncing projectiles quickly became notorious for their erratic trajectories as they carom off surfaces.

A player named kev99gh recorded an extraordinary final kill during a hardcore Search and Destroy match on Lowtown. They launched a Ricochet Blade (affectionately called "pizza" by fans) outside the playable area, only for it to rebound back through a window for an instant elimination.

This appears to be the longest recorded Ricochet Blade kill yet, as the projectile temporarily exited the map boundaries. The clip shows kev99gh lining up an unconventional shot before tracking the blade's impossible path via the overhead map view.

Such elaborate trick shots aren't purely luck-based. As Redditor SpawnTubing explains, dedicated Black Ops 6 players study common camping spots and practice these angles. The flawless timing of the enemy's unfortunate peek exemplifies the game's signature moments.

The Ricochet Blades have spawned an entire bounce-kill meta, with numerous impressive clips surfacing across multiplayer maps. Some feature multiple ricochets before finding their mark.

Not all players appreciate this mechanic - critics call the unpredictable blades frustrating. Their complaints likely intensified after Treyarch's recent buff:

D1.3 Sector
Ricochet Blades now deal 100 damage (ensuring instant kills)
Reduced fire rate and projectile speed
Improved bounce physics

These adjustments suggest we'll see even more spectacular ricochet kills as Season 3 approaches, alongside Warzone's Verdansk revival.
