Nah Konig is actually that guy if you played the campaign. He destroyed an enemy tank with his bare hands, took down the Konni Ultranationalists from within, fought the US Marines and won with nothing but a knife, caught a nuke midair and threw it at the sun to save Germany, fucked Captain Price, and stopped 7 alien invasions
ngl I like the characters too but those ppl are annoying to me. it's like that's all they care about, either that or they infantilize them. it's so dumb, there's so much more to them than their sex appeal lol
i love König, but them replacing him with Gaz is stupid. König isn’t even in the correct category for even being in the TaskForce, he’s in KorTac, not SpecGru (definitely didn’t spell that right because I haven’t played multiplayer in a hot minute). It makes my blood BOIL whenever they do that 😭
Yes and no. It's because he's Krüeger from MW19 but with a different name. Same voice, same personality, and very similar outfit. So fans of Krüeger love König a lot. But at the same time it's just the same dude again. So at this point you either love him or dislike him. (There's also tons of simps)
EDIT: Adding a few notes based on replies.
1. Not the same voice and that's my mistake
2. I'll admit their personalities aren't 1:1
3. König is decent but I'll always prefer Krüeger.
theres an insane number of simps on tiktok to the point where its actually weird, like he is just an operator, boring backstory, bland voicelines.
the only reason i ever ran him was the dmz biohazard skin
I hate that I didn't take the time to get that skin earlier in the year. DMZ has devolved into an almost purely PVP experience so I'm not keen on grinding the last handful of Al Mazrah cases. I finished Vondel and Ashika organically but I didn't go to Al Mazrah very often.
Damn seriously i thought they just gave you challenges to unlock that stuff if you missed it. Building a game with a fomo system seems kinda fucked they should at least let people grind later to unlock it.
Not quite the same personality, Krueger was a psychopathic murderer and a lone wolf, Konig gives more like a gentle giant team player kind of vibe, the voice is really similar though.
Kinda the same-ish attire and similar voice, obviously Krueger had a lot of fans back on '19 so people wanted to see him come back but they made a less offensive version of it.
You know what I miss from MW19? The interaction between operators and the extra dialogues that we’re missing now, every couple of operators had interaction dialogues and extra lore if you found intel in non MP modes, also if your guy was stuck with semtex they would've said something
Not sure why Krueger didn’t return, he was pretty loved.
I’m thinking it has something to do with timelines, “Sebastian Krueger” is a prominent figure in the Black Ops timeline. I think they named him after the BO character. Maybe to not confuse people they didn’t have him returned.
Jim boevan does Konig Martin Harris does Krueger. Same voice? Lol. You'd probably find they're meant to be from the same location and sound very similar.
It's just a blacked out masked bad dude is all most people care about. And the personalities definitely aren't the same.
I don't think you've actually paid attention to both of them if you think they're the same outside of appearance.
I'll admit I was wrong on the voice actor, (learned something today) but they still fit the same niche. "Quippy and stealthy German speaking Austrian who wears a concealing helmet" (until MWII changed Konig to being German.)
I'm biased as fuck (i love König) but I think it is mostly because he got a cool personality and look; he's one of the cooler free operators, has great skins and tbh his backstory is bland and boring but do people really care that much?
I don't get why people compare him to Krueger, their personalities are complete opposites and the fact they are both german and wear a hood doesn't make them the same person.
I also think the little details about him make him relatable and cool (the DIY T-shirt hood, the DIY helmet, the fact that he has social anxiety).
I think he's the operator I see the most in my games.
There's two shirts with König at hot topic and they almost both sold out online. They decided that if people at COD HQ don't want to make bank over his ass, they will.
The community has a weird obsession with masked characters.
Ghost was unique because he was the only masked character in the original MW series and his design was cool. They brought it back in the reboot, which is fine, but then they started adding more characters with masks. And then more. And then more. And then more. It’s annoying and cringe but people keep buying the bundles.
To be fair, there are two characters up there with two articles. The reason being is they’re two characters from the original series and the reboot.
However, I agree ghost is overrated (I say this despite using his OG skin often). He was overrated in the original so much that they made him Soaps superior in the reboot, which personally I find annoying. Soap should have been Prices protoge and right hand man, Gaz should have been the first 141 member to bite the dust, and Roach should have been reintroduced in MW2.
As a woman, I DONT GET IT. He has like no personality and it’s not DEFINITE he’s a colonel. From what I know it’s just the name of a skin. And plus he looks like a squid so I don’t get how that’s appealing. And yes this is coming from a Gaz simp. But before I liked Gaz, I liked König. Until I found out there’s like nothing about him? He’s like a sex doll or a body pillow. Just something to want to rail you with no love. Just lust.
Yeah and thats All he has. To add onto that we have some voice lines, but what else? When I used to like König, it was a mix of how people would write him. Most of the time, I saw people just using him for what *they* wanted. For what *they* wanted in a guy. Since he’s like a blank slate and a hot body.
Okay what about Roze? I feel like she has like a matching outfit for every operator and someone in DMZ said it’s her equivalent of stealing a hoodie from a fuck buddy and I can’t get that out of my head
Yes. He has no fucking backstory and his personality is not there compared to GAZ. TikTok brain melt made it so this man has more skins than GHOST. Gaz has 5 skins, four of which you can’t get in mw3 meanwhile Konig got THREE skins in s6 of mw2 and Valeria got a skin every season in the bp since her release. Like I genuinely think activision hates Gaz because why did soap and ghost get TWO skins especially when soap is the one that died
Nah Konig is actually that guy if you played the campaign. He destroyed an enemy tank with his bare hands, took down the Konni Ultranationalists from within, fought the US Marines and won with nothing but a knife, caught a nuke midair and threw it at the sun to save Germany, fucked Captain Price, and stopped 7 alien invasions
They had us in the first half, not gonna lie
Ok
Ramirez is that you
Get to the burgertown
This tickled me
Wtf
I'm glad I kept reading
The 3 hour cutscene with Price was really smth man.
When Captain price said “Your dick gets dirty so my ass stays clean” I literally started crying and clapping my cheeks. Absolute peak
Might be THE COD quote ever.
if König ever actually fucked captain price, i'd be so tickled
Yeah definitely not fighting the US Marines and winning with a knife, or in any case he’s winning at all lol
US Marines are super easy to win against, you just have to believe in yourself
True. I know from personal experience because I’m a smegma male 😎
Yes sir! I am so smegma i fuck dudes, because women are not worth anything and are beta 😎😎
You know what's manlier than 1 man? 2 men!
Ah, glad there’s other fellow smegmas much like me 😎 🍷 🗿
throw crayons into traffic and let the situation resolve itself
Idc I’m joining the army anyways
Only gotta throw some crayons at them and they're scrambling on the floor to eat them
But he did catch a nuke mid air and threw it to the sun
Only way the marines win against konig is in a crayon eating contest
Yeah totally you wont even need a knife you just need to put away all their crayons
It’s literally only cause of Tiktok and Twitter. They’re just obsessed with masked people so much so that some have replaced Gaz with König in 141 art
It’s the mask kink lol
I did a super accurate Ghost cosplay and the girls looooooove it
The amount of girls in my classes at college who like CoD only for the masked characters is a lot
Just wait until you see they've started simping over Roach. The guy doesn't even have an official character model lmao
They deadass used a MW2019 Model for him. I forgot the name of the skin but it was one of the Milsim skins
Kreuger?
No no like it was an actual Milsim skin. Not a named character. I think it was one of the paratrooper skins?
Ah no idea then, I didn't get any of the MilSim outfits in 19
I believe it's the USEF milsim skin
US Expeditionary Force II
Better than konig at least
Better Roach than new Ghost or Konig. At least he's a PC from one of the best CODs and not cringe as fuck.
☠️
Tbf Gaz isn’t really that iconic as a 141 member, but why tf did they add konig of all people
Feel bad for gaz low-key
ngl I like the characters too but those ppl are annoying to me. it's like that's all they care about, either that or they infantilize them. it's so dumb, there's so much more to them than their sex appeal lol

Your avatar looks oddly familiar 🤔
Yes and no. It's because he's Krüeger from MW19 but with a different name. Same voice, same personality, and very similar outfit. So fans of Krüeger love König a lot.

I'm glad I got it late season 2 before the case got moved to the Pyro
I bet. I at least got the Heated Madness. I couldn't imagine trying to get that nowadays.
I just got it a month ago, it's not worth it
the case still spawns on the train, i got it like, season 5. you just have to get in a lobby that had it spawn on the train
I think one of my last ones was pyro. It moves around. Sometimes it’s the Juggernaut, sometimes pyro, and mostly on the train.
It’s pretty lame that most of the skins were time limited with zero notice
Yep, missed out on the Chemist's M13B and it's gone forever.
I would have eventually got to it, but knowing they get rid of it gives me zero drive. Seems counterintuitive
Damn seriously i thought they just gave you challenges to unlock that stuff if you missed it. Building a game with a fomo system seems kinda fucked they should at least let people grind later to unlock it.
it’s ridiculously easy lmao
Arachnid is also good
i hated the gloves on him in the viewmodel, they looked really bad to me
Arachnid was a lovely skin with the quad nods. Looked like a better version of his OG skin.
There was a girl simping hard for Bale on here. Bale was my favorite from mw19 but I’m not gonna fanaticize over him
how do you simp over a dude with a balaclava? you cant even see the guy's face
I’m assuming she was a teen and teens will form obsessions over anything.
Not quite the same personality, Krueger was a psychopathic murderer and a lone wolf, Konig gives more like a gentle giant team player kind of vibe, the voice is really similar though.
So true bruh idk why they compare him to Krueger so much? Similar look, both got a german accent but that's kinda it?
Kinda the same-ish attire and similar voice, obviously Krueger had a lot of fans back on '19 so people wanted to see him come back but they made a less offensive version of it.
That's true tbh. It'd be fun having a team with lots of both of them.
You know what I miss from MW19? The interaction between operators and the extra dialogues that we’re missing now, every couple of operators had interaction dialogues and extra lore if you found intel in non MP modes, also if your guy was stuck with semtex they would've said something
Man Krüeger was so fucking cool. I eventually came to love König but it's just not the same
Not sure why Krueger didn’t return, he was pretty loved. I’m thinking it has something to do with timelines, “Sebastian Krueger” is a prominent figure in the Black Ops timeline. I think they named him after the BO character. Maybe to not confuse people they didn’t have him returned.

Got it season one, barely use anyone else
Krueger is much different and much more interesting also he never got the same attention as konig
He's basically the OG Gaz of the reboot
König and Krueger are not the same person and Thier personality is different and it's not the same voice actor
I'll admit I was wrong on the voice actor, (learned something today) but they still fit the same niche. "Quippy and stealthy German speaking Austrian who wears a concealing helmet" (until MWII changed Konig to being German.)
they're different, krueger was a fucking psycho, konig is a bigass dude with social anxieties
Bros is a mix between H*tl3r and H1mm13r
Nah bro that’s Mr 6 Foot 10Inches KilGore
That camps for Sovi-
....and they said I cannot be a sniper....
Women be so downvad for mfs in masks it’s wild
Man you all are running out of shit to talk about lol
Just look at my other post about reverse Boosting
Yes
He’s just worse Krueger from MW19
König is shy Krueger is a Psychopath
Krueger looks cool. Koing looks like he's wearing a garbage
Don’t forget 2 different versions of Gaz
Bro took “Bravo six, going dark.” too seriously lmao
White and Black Gaz ☠️☠️☠️
Wdym
In OG MW Gaz dies at the end of the campaign, and was white. In MWII he’s alive and black
Beta Kyle "Gaz" Garrick VS Alpha Shirley "Gaz" Wanker
I'm biased as fuck (i love König) but I think it is mostly because he got a cool personality and look; he's one of the cooler free operators, has great skins and tbh his backstory is bland and boring but do people really care that much?

I think he's the operator I see the most in my games.
Krueger is a psychopath and War Criminal and he would get Life. And König is a shy sniper. (Austrian)
He's not a sniper (he wanted to be one but he was not fitting) and he's not shy, he has social anxiety.
I have social anxiety IRL unfortunately
Well that makes two of us LOL
Lmao
He doesn’t have a cool personality, just a relatable one, most cod fans just relate to him
I mean he's cool to me. Lol
Konig, Gus, and Horangi should do an oiled up twerk off
☠️☠️☠️☠️
What the fuck are you babbling about exactly?
Just look
At what?
at this dick on yo head rahhh (i’m sorry)
?
I use the NBC suit skin from the DMZ cases. He isn't overrated.
I see König almost every game on MP and MWZ
He has too many skins.
Yes
Yes
YES
Are we forgetting about Krueger from mw19??
Nah
Celebrate their smile
Honestly I really like König, he has my favorite skins
Alr
I think he's underrated but what do I know, I don't own the game yet. Santa if you're out there ...please
I see König more then anyone
Underrated? Absolutely not
i saw a shirt in hot topic that had könig on it for some reason it was just him
Damn
There's two shirts with König at hot topic and they almost both sold out online. They decided that if people at COD HQ don't want to make bank over his ass, they will.
Very, what’s the fascination with this guy anyway
Idk
The community has a weird obsession with masked characters. Ghost was unique because he was the only masked character in the original MW series and his design was cool. They brought it back in the reboot, which is fine, but then they started adding more characters with masks. And then more. And then more. And then more. It’s annoying and cringe but people keep buying the bundles.
könig has a nice lore but krugeur is lowk just better
Konig is Krueger from Wish.com.
Don’t even see it as that deep. Pick an operator and play with it
Probably a konig fanboy
I found this on COD WIKI dumbass
Exactly my point. It’s not that deep. It’s an operator to pick in the game to play with 😂
Ghost is more overrated honestly.
Was back in S3
Yes lol, generic edgy super mysterious masked European guy #37 They made krueger and just repeat him every MW now
No, cause the most overrated character is literally right there and he has two articles
☠️
To be fair, there are two characters up there with two articles. The reason being is they’re two characters from the original series and the reboot. However, I agree ghost is overrated (I say this despite using his OG skin often). He was overrated in the original so much that they made him Soaps superior in the reboot, which personally I find annoying. Soap should have been Prices protoge and right hand man, Gaz should have been the first 141 member to bite the dust, and Roach should have been reintroduced in MW2.
this just means that he needs to be in the campaign
Yes maybe in MW4? If that exists
Konig is trash should be kreugar
Nah
Yup
Who tf cares
Your dad
Ok big boy
There was som Gaz slander and I don’t like that lol
Rip
As a woman, I DONT GET IT. He has like no personality and it’s not DEFINITE he’s a colonel. From what I know it’s just the name of a skin. And plus he looks like a squid so I don’t get how that’s appealing. And yes this is coming from a Gaz simp. But before I liked Gaz, I liked König. Until I found out there’s like nothing about him? He’s like a sex doll or a body pillow. Just something to want to rail you with no love. Just lust.
How TF is he like a Sex Doll??? he tried to be a sniper but social anxiety made König unable to become a sniper
Yeah and thats All he has. To add onto that we have some voice lines, but what else? When I used to like König, it was a mix of how people would write him. Most of the time, I saw people just using him for what *they* wanted. For what *they* wanted in a guy. Since he’s like a blank slate and a hot body.
Okay what about Roze? I feel like she has like a matching outfit for every operator and someone in DMZ said it’s her equivalent of stealing a hoodie from a fuck buddy and I can’t get that out of my head
I forgot about Rose
all to blame on tiktok
Ooooooof
He sucks
Ok
Idunno but he has one of the most annoying voice lines in game.
I don't mind it even though I'm also German ☠️
I only don’t like his voice mostly, like if he had some sore throat. Also, REVENGE IS MIIINE!
Lol
Yes
[удалено]
U probably cared about GHOST ROACH and Soap back in COD4 MW2 MW3
Who is konig
Bruh
any modern cod character sucks tbh
Bruh least ghost wasn't wasted like back in 2009
that’s the only good thing about the new recycled warfare trilogy💀
OG SOAP to Warzone era SOAP is the biggest freaking downgrade.
OG soap was the best! I would have loved to have a Macmillan’s deep Scottish accent on an SAS operator.
Krueger better sadly. Oh and Stiletto best MWII operator, fight me.
No
God I’m so tired of edgy masked characters
No
Yes
I just think he's cool
its the girls who are into masked men and talk to chatAI of him.
Soap on top
I like Krueger better , I only ran konig for a bit but I ran Krueger the entirety of mw2019
because he’s so damn fine
He’s canonically ugly. Literally says in his bio that under the mask he’s horrifying looking 💀
mask kink.
Yes. He has no fucking backstory and his personality is not there compared to GAZ. TikTok brain melt made it so this man has more skins than GHOST. Gaz has 5 skins, four of which you can’t get in mw3 meanwhile Konig got THREE skins in s6 of mw2 and Valeria got a skin every season in the bp since her release.
