Call of Duty kills by mode: Hardpoint, Search & Destroy and Overload

PickFinder logo

PickFinder Team•Updated:

For Call of Duty kills props, the mode sets the line. The kills per map leaders in the CDL 2026 season are JoeDeceives in Hardpoint (29.3), Kips in Search & Destroy (7.8) and JoeDeceives in Overload (26.7).

The mode sets the scale: the average player gets Hardpoint 26.1, Search & Destroy 6.4, Overload 24.1 kills per map. A Maps 1-3 line usually adds one of each, so a player's mix of modes matters as much as the overall number.

Hardpoint, average kills per player (503 maps)
26.1
Search & Destroy, average kills per player (409 maps)
6.4
Overload, average kills per player (324 maps)

Using mode splits on a prop

  1. Add up the modes

    Maps 1-3 are usually Hardpoint, Search & Destroy and Overload. JoeDeceives averages 63.1 Maps 1-3 kills, and the mode columns show where they come from.

  2. Find the mode that drives the line

    JoeDeceives is +14.1% against the league in Search & Destroy and +10.7% in Overload. Against a team strong in the best mode, lean on the weaker number.

  3. Use it for single map lines

    Map 1 to Map 5 kill lines follow one mode each. Compare the line with that mode's column, not with the player's overall average.

  4. Check today's line

    Today's Call of Duty lines and each player's hit rate against them are in PickFinder.

How this is counted

Window: the CDL 2026 season, Dec 5, 2025 to Aug 9, 2026. Counts CDL league events and the World Cup: 317 series and 1,253 maps. CDC and community cups are left out, and World Cup teams are merged with their league team by roster. Forfeits and rows that disagree with the series score are removed. Kills per map and K/D use only maps where the row lines up with the series. The gap in brackets compares a player with the league average for that mode. A mode cell needs 5 maps. Players need 25 series with at least 3 maps. Mode counts: Hardpoint 503, Search & Destroy 409, Overload 324.
