5. Seriously, getting killstreaks that you can kill people with before 5 kills is very meh in my opinion. It'll make the maps a freakin' racetrack. It'd also break the whole "no kill killstreaks before 5 killstreak" thing they had going on in them games (hardline doesn't count) I think it's a good alternative to the archangel, which is probably harder to control, but has a similar blasting radius.
