Domination has been a fan-favorite
Mode in Call of Duty ever since it was revamped in cod4 and it's one of my favorite game modes of all time
But for those that somehow don't know
Dom is a mode where two teams fight for control over
Three flags on the map one of which is often in the dead center of the map with tons of sight lines
Straight to it making it very difficult to take however, some maps are extra hard to cap. What is up? Everybody chaos here
Welcome to the cod history series
And today we're gonna be checking out my picks for the 10 hardest bead dome caps in cod history

Hold whatever it may be because of the metagame or the map design
They were rough and be sure to let me know in the comments section which be flag is your least?

Kicking off our list is hijacked in black ops 2 fan favorite map for sure
right
it featured an absolute nightmare of a B flag though hijacked was a pretty small 3 lane map with tons of
Verticality in the middle of the map for snipers and campers to make a heyday width the B flag
It was located right in the center of two areas of high ground and there wasn't much cover at all
And since the map was so small
It was super easy to chuck grenades at the B flag from pretty much anywhere and clean it out
Definitely deserving of a spot on this list and you're probably wondering if this got number 10
What got number one at number 9 we have bog?
From Cod for bog is one of those maps that you either loved it or you hated it on one hand
It was really cool
And it was a visually awesome map that allowed for some intense sniper duels for the other players
But on the other hand the darker lighting made it very easy for people to camp by sitting in the shadows or just laying prone
In a ditch somewhere with an LMG, but that's not even getting into the insane frustration
That was trying to take the B flag during a domination match on this
The B flag on bhaag was located on a hill in the dead center of the map with absolutely no cover at all
So when the enemies heard that notification that B was under attack
All they had to do was look at the big hill and see all the enemies standing there and pop him in a head pretty
Much the only way to cap beyond bhaag
Was to wipe out the whole enemy team at once and then have two or three teammates
Push the flag with you capture it quickly before all the enemies could respawn the map. Was that small a time rate
retaliation and infinite warfare a lot of people called this map
stonehaven 2.0 and honestly
They hit it on the head
Infinite warfare featured mostly small to medium sized maps that complemented the movement and kept the pace up, but I have no idea
What they were thinking with retaliation this map is huge and getting from one side of the other takes forever
Even with the increased movement speed and abilities of infinite warfare Plus. Don't even get me started on the B flag placement
Not only was getting to be a difficult task
I mean it was it was a long travel, honestly
But it was placed in the middle of a street with like three different areas of high ground
Watching directly over it making it really easy for someone to just pop you with a sniper
While you were trying to play the objective. When will Call of Duty games stop putting in these
Ridiculously big Maps. If you're not gonna give us 12 V 12 or 9 v 9 we don't need it
speaking of ridiculous Maps at number 7
wasteland and
modern warfare 2
One of the easiest Maps in cod history to get a new clone due to the complete lack of cover for kill streaks now wasteland
Was another love it or hate it matte because you can get on a roll in this thing
I mean you really could it was almost impossible to stop you since you couldn't run away from enemy kill streaks
But if you were on the receiving end of it
You pretty much would always just leave the game drop a like if you've ever been noobtube from spawn
on wasteland that being said
Getting to the B flag. O wasteland was pretty much impossible
If the enemy team had streaks of any kind B of the UAV chopper anything in order to hold that b flag
Pretty much. All you needed to know was where the enemies were coming from
you could just hold the area down indefinitely with a sniper rifle if you could hit your shots a
Number 6 and here's another gigantic one beautiful map though
Stonehaven in ghost and I'm sure all of you expected this to be on this list
It's one of the most high in maps in cata history due to its insane size and to this day
I still don't have any idea
What Infinity Ward was thinking whether the map it's just way too big and if you die while the enemy is taking B
there is
No way to get over to the flag in time to defend it this led to matches pretty much being a race to see who
Could capture the B flag first since capturing it while someone else is defending it. It's impossible
You were just sent back so far if someone killed you that I mean
It was a complete chore and people probably gave up on it
I don't blame you for not playing the objective on this map
number five and this map doesn't get talked about hardly ever and I actually
Enjoyed this map convoy and the original black ops. This was a DLC map for the original black ops
It was a pretty good one
It was visually cool and it was an urban setting in a cold war set pieces
but if you ever played on the map back in the day
You know why it's on this list
Capturing B flag on this map was one of the hardest things to do in the entire game almost
Everywhere on the map had some kind of sight line to the B flag in domination and the flag itself had so little cover that
Within two seconds of stepping on it
You could fully expect either sniper fire or grenades to start being spam at you
Heck it wasn't uncommon at all to have domination matches on convoy
Not even touch the B flag for a couple minutes or even in in a draw
Because nobody was able to take this flag. And remember this is only number five
Number four we have hunted in black ops 3 now black ops 3 had some pretty solid map design
I'll give them that when it came to balancing. I mean four different game modes, but
Something got a little screwed up with hunted because the map was ridiculously
unbalanced for domination now getting to the B flag on hunt
It takes a very long time due to the changes in altitude the lack of routes to actually get there plus the flag itself
Had absolutely no cover whatsoever
So if someone is defending it from range with a sniper if someone calls in a lightning strike
You might as well just jump off the map because you're toast it was pretty common to see
domination matches on hunted in with one team having a hundred point lead
Because the other team simply could not break the B flag after it was taken
at number three slums in black ops 2 or black ops
4 this is a map that I'm sure plenty of you were expecting to see on here
Thanks to it being such a popular choice in black ops 4 right now
Slums debuted bo2 and it was brought
Back for bo4 and it's a fan-favorite map. Thanks to its great 3 Lane design as well
Is that arena style center that makes for some insane?
Firefights, but one thing this map is also known for is its punishing be flagged placement?
The B flag is slept right in the center of that middle arena and it has zero cover not to mention
You have to constantly be spinning around while you're trying to take this fly because people can literally come from any direction
On this map now, I love slums. But even I wish they would have found a new spot for the B flag
Maybe put the B flag in the little house directly across from the arena
I don't know but there had to be a better option than where it was a
number 2
shipment, I mean shipment and Cod for I don't know how else to explain the map except for it's a cluster of a map and
That's why so many people loved it and loved it to this day
But let's get off the nostalgic factor here for a second that all being said
Taking the B flag on shipment is probably one of the hardest feats in Call of Duty history
Especially if you don't have coordination with your team if you're running lone wolf and no communication
it's impossible now due to how small the map is and how
How thin all the walls are achievement cleaning people off. The B flag is
Ridiculously easy all you have to do toss a grenade
Start spraying at the walls with whatever gun you have or just use a Marty Tom class
Run right into it with a shotgun or an SMG and boom problem solved
This is definitely definitely deserving. It could have been number one easily easily such a frustrating
I mean it's a frustrating B flag with it again
If you go on Cod for or Modern Warfare remastered nobody's even trying to cap the flags anyway
So it doesn't really matter and finally at number one today
It's going to go to Gustav cannon in World War 2. That's right
One of the most hated maps in cod history and perhaps the biggest joke about Cod World War two
Was there anyone who actually liked Gustav cannon raise your hand? Let me know in the comment section
I'm willing to bet that even the people who managed to enjoy the map did not enjoy playing dom on it
Now, I wish I could find out who decided on the b flag
placement on this map and go have a talk with him because I'm
99% sure that they were trolling and I wonder who gets to place the flags
is there a dead ignited be flag placer for every call of duty came that comes out the be flag on Gustav cannon is
Located on a huge section of high ground that gives you total
Visibility of the entire map and there are only two routes to get to it ant and there are walls around the flag
So people can camp there and remain totally invisible to the enemy team
So if you have two people on the flag, it is virtually impossible
For the enemy team to break it seriously whose idea was this in the sledgehammer camp
We really really want to know and there you go guys. Those are ten of the hardest be dumb caps in cod history
That is my personal list if you agree with it, let me know if you don't agree with it
Give me your list in the comments section or over on Twitter
I do a brand new cod history top 10 every Wednesday and every Sunday
So if you have some ideas for a video you'd like to see definitely let me know
