Just a note about Overkill as a Specialist: you should only use Overkill if you set it as a tier 2 perk if you want two primary weapons. Otherwise, earning Overkill as a Specialist perk/bonus doesn't do you any good since you can't "select" your second primary weapon on the fly. Someone is bound to drop a primary weapon when you kill them.
Overall, good points about the specialist package. I typically start with SoH and then as my second pointstreak reward (@ 4 kills), I earn Scavenger. Typically don't need the bullets until around my fourth or fifth kill. My third pointstreak reward is usually Blast Shield, but sometimes I use Hardline or Quickdraw.
Hardline is great as the tier 2 perk when you use it as a way to earn the first specialist perk with 1 kill.
The other effective way to use Hardline in the Specialist package is to use it as your third pointstreak reward so that your seventh kill earns you the specialist bonus. That way you have three more useful perks earlier.

Lancer, I'm normally much better. But when I host, my game is extremely laggy and I usually I get one or two hit markers with sounds and then I am dead. That's unless I'm teamed up with someone.
As I see it, I only worry about my KD in that it's positive. A positive KD in TDM is the best way I know how to help my team. In other modes, I don't care about my KD because only the objectives matter.
So, if I'm worried about helping out my team, then there's several ways to use a pointstreak package. If it's using the Specialist package to take out some of the more advanced players on the other team, great. If it's using the Assault package to constantly call in UAVs and place IMSes, fine. And if it's using the Support package to counter the enemy UAVs, call in an Advanced UAV, and then drop a stealth bomber on the enemy team, that works, too.
In the end, using Hardline Pro in TDM works well for my team because it turns my KD into a positive KD - when I host. Not arguing; just providing my point of view.
