Quick Map Tips

CT Side Fundamentals

Hold angles, use utility to delay pushes, and play for retakes when outnumbered. Crossfires are your best friend on defense.

T Side Fundamentals

Take map control early, use utility to clear angles, and execute sites together. Default rounds help you gather information.

Utility Usage

Learn at least 3 smokes, 2 flashes, and 1 molotov for every map you play. Utility wins rounds more than raw aim.
