Hit the site on a timer

Smoke, flash, then the first body. A late lurk is only useful if the site is already cracking. Keep additional game information nearby when you relearn a map after a patch.

Utility that opens the round

One recon is a plan. Three flashes with no smoke is noise. Save a piece for post-plant. Check related resources before you copy a lineup you have not practiced.

  • On defense, play the timing, not the highlight peek. See additional guides for extra notes on retake smokes.

Eco, force, and the next rifle round

A force can steal a round. It can also throw two. Buy together. Save together. Skim more game information when your bonus rounds keep leaking.
