Even with only one teammate behind him, Blitz can make a whole lot of difference in a match. He can use his Blitz charge and the threat of being blinded to gain tactical position advantages for him and his teammate. But even when he’s alone, as long as it’s a 1v1, Blitz can be effective. With proper use of his loadouts and flash shield, Blitz can be an offensive menace and can make even experienced players panic and back off. And when they do, that’s when he’s at his deadliest.

5. G52-Tactical Shield + P12 with Suppressor + Smoke Grenade

It may be in last place, but it doesn’t mean it won’t be effective.

The most effective tactic for Blitz, especially on 1v1 encounters, is to slowly creep up to your enemy and once you’re near enough to initiate an effective chase, start charging and blind your enemy. With this loadout, even when you get separated from your team, you’ll be able to accomplish the first step, which is to stealthily creep up to your enemy. You can use the suppressed P12 to shoot defender cameras, and even if you fail to blind your enemy and they decide to run for it, you can quickly switch to your handgun and strafe at them while also not letting them be certain of where the shots are coming from.

4. G52-Tactical Shield + P12 with Muzzle Brake + Breach Charge

Charge in style

This loadout is for rushing. Attach the breach charge onto the nearest barricaded door to your enemies’ objective site, and once your team is ready, detonate it and proceed with the rush. This loadout is best used when you have a coordinate team with good comms. Once the push starts, keep charging towards enemies that you spot and blind as many as you can. And for those who are not in the range of your flash shield. The P12 with added recoil benefits from the muzzle brake will finish the job.

A Blitz emerging from the smoke is an epic sight

The use of smoke grenades is a highly effective tactic especially when there’s a shield operator in your team. And in this case, it’s gonna be Blitz. His shield doesn't cover as much area as Montagne’s but it’s still effective at blocking most gunshots. A smoke covering a plant attempt with Blitz is also good strategy but you can use your smoke grenades for other purposes too, such as blocking another angle or for you to be able to creep up closer to your enemies so that you can blind them with your flash shield.

Increased hip fire accuracy

There are a lot of times with Blitz when you’ve already blinded the enemy with his flash shield and yet through instinct or timing, the enemy is still able to counter attack with a knife. That’s why sometimes it’s much safer to stick close to the blinded enemy and keep hip firing with your pistol. The very close range and the laser will make it so that your bullets will hit the enemy even though you’re not in the aim-down-sights (ads) position.

The breach charge is so underrated

Since you’re already playing a support role in Blitz, you might as well take the gadget that most players, especially those who’ve already chosen fraggers, ignore, and that is the breach charge. As mentioned in item #4, you can use it to initiate a rush and even create another entry point through unreinforced walls or hatches. And a rushing Blitz with his teammates initiated by a loud explosion from the breach charge can still panic even to the most experienced teams.
