There are a lot of options when it comes to setting up your loadout inCall Of Duty Warzone, and while the weapons and perks you pick are definitely important, which grenades/gadgets you choose is of equal importance. These can make a huge difference in a fight, especially at the higher skill levels when the gun-skill is on an even playing field.

So without further ado, let’s take a look at every grenade and gadgets available in Warzone, and rank them from least to most useful:
17STIM
Coming in as just about the most useless thing in Warzone is the Stim. Because just about (if not exactly) half of your health in this game is armor, and the Stim doesn’t regenerate that for obvious reasons, it’s almost never going to make a big difference. If you’ve just been revived then maybe the Stim can get you a small amount of health back quickly, but if you’re looking for a Stim to make the health difference in a fight, you’re already likely in a pretty bad situation.
16THROWING KNIFE
If the Throwing Knife did just a little bit more damage, it could actually be pretty nice, but as it is, it doesn’t one-shot an enemy, even at the highest possible damage. This ensures that it’s out-damaged by just about any actual gun, meaning any enemy that can hit the majority of theirshotsis going to put you down every single time.
15DECOY GRENADE
While this can be pretty nice in certain scenarios, it isn’t going to be usable in most situations you run into. Every once in a while, you may bait an enemy into looking the wrong way, making for a very easy kill. But more often than not, you aren’t going to be in a situation where an enemy is going to fall for it, especially the more observant foes.
14GAS GRENADE
The Gas Grenade is another one that could be pretty great in the right circumstance but is going to be super-situational. Teammates can run into your gas unimpeded, but you can’t, so you’ll have to keep that in mind when using these to push an enemy; you’ll be at the same disadvantage they’re at.
13SNAPSHOT GRENADE
This gadget can be super-awesome when used at the perfect time. If you aren’t entirely sure where an enemy is, at least not enough to be able to go around a corner pre-firing, the Snapshot Grenade can really help in that department. But, if just thrown willy-nilly without much of a plan, it’s going to be a complete and utter waste.

12C4
One of the more difficult to use explosives in Warzone, C4 does some pretty solid damage, with the drawback being you can’t throw it nearly as far as you can something like a frag grenade. C4 does have the extra benefit of being a bit easier to use on a vehicle, which we can all agree are a real pain to deal with.
11THERMITE GRENADE
An honestly pretty-solid grenade when it comes to damage, the Thermite Grenade is only lower on this list because of the small damage radius that it has. In the right situation, like in a 90-degree hallway/staircase, the Thermite Grenade can be utterly catastrophic, melting away the enemy’s armor and health with ruthless efficiency. But in a more open scenario, it’s going to be pretty tough to land any damage with it.
10FLASH GRENADE
The Flash Grenade is either going to be hilariously useful or a complete and utter waste, with absolutely nothing in between. Sometimes you’re going to throw it and an enemy is going to have to spray wildly and pray, while other times it seems to have actually zero effect on them, whether they’re using the Battle-Hardened perk or not.
9STUN GRENADE
This is going to sound a lot like the above statement, but it’s the truth; the Stun Grenade is either going to win you a fight or do absolutely nothing. This is placed one higher than the Flash Grenade simply because it limits an enemy’s movement, making it more difficult for them to do much of anything, even if they can see you.
8FRAG GRENADE
The classic. Everybody knows what to expect from a Frag Grenade, and that is consistency. It’s going to do some solid damage, and the more skilled you are, the better you’re going to be at cooking the grenade to perfection so as to ensure that it explodes the moment it lands in the enemy’s lap.
