Coming back to Strike Ops after a long break hits different, I won’t lie. First match back I was pressing everything wrong, running into walls, getting shot from corners I didn’t even know existed 😂. The mission that popped up said I had to kill 17 enemies before the round could be won. 17 kills sounds small on paper, but when your reflexes are rusty it feels like climbing a mountain. I didn’t even bother scoping the whole time. Just Gio fire, hip fire, run in, spray, slide out. My aim was all over the place but at least I wasn’t wasting seconds trying to line up perfect headshots with lag in my room.
Somehow I started dropping people. One here, two there, then it became a rhythm. By the time I looked at the kill feed I was already at 14. Fourteen kills, no scope, just pure running and gunning with the basic AR I picked. The network was acting up so I knew PVP Division was out of the question, but exhibition match was working fine enough. With only 3 players left on the enemy team, my heart started beating fast. I could see the win screen already. Three more and it’s done. My hands were sweating, the phone was heating up, and every corner felt like someone was waiting to end me.
But that’s Strike Ops for you. Right when I thought I had it, those last 3 players pushed me together. No backup, no time to reload properly, and my Gio fire couldn’t save me that time. Got defeated right at the end, 14 down and 3 left. It hurt a bit because the win was right there, but I’m also not mad. First day back after months, no scope, bad network, lower-tier gun, and I still managed 14 kills. That’s enough to tell me the muscle memory is coming back. Next match I’m getting those last 3 for sure. If you’re returning too, don’t stress the deaths at first. Just keep playing, keep spraying, and one day it’ll all click again.
