When it comes to creativity and uniqueness, Vanguard slightly edges out Modern Warfare 2. MW2 is extremely similar in gunplay and setting to its predecessor, Modern Warfare. The setting is the same and the characters that appeared in that game also appear in this one.

Vanguard's execution quality is among the best in the business at 99.2%, and the company is among the rare brokers that don't accept payment for order flow. This means Vanguard doesn't receive compensation from market makers, who sometimes pay brokers to route investors' orders through them.
