Claymore Mine

The Claymore Mine is a proximity-triggered explosive trap that detonates when an enemy crosses its detection radius. Placed at doorways, extraction points, or narrow corridors, it punishes enemies who advance without checking their path and can be a decisive tool for defending a loot cache or slowing down a pursuing squad. Its main strength is the pressure it creates simply by being placed: opponents who know Claymores are in play will slow their advance and lose momentum, buying valuable time.

The Claymore Mine's primary weakness is its effectiveness against fast, mobile runners who can sprint past the trigger zone before it fully detonates. It is rated C-tier for general play but becomes more valuable in high-density indoor maps with tight hallways where movement speed advantages are reduced. Teams who communicate mine placements can use Claymores to cover blind spots and funnel enemies into kill zones, making them a solid choice for coordinated squads prioritizing defensive map control.
