Execution sequence
Mission brief
3–2 A split modeled on Aurora's MainIvy Split. The Main trio (entry, support, IGL) stacks Dumpster and enters A through T Main/Outside behind Connector and Popdog smokes; the Ivy duo (AWPer, lurker) takes Ivy control early and breaks in from the Ivy exit on a pop flash, catching the A defenders between both entrances. Entry carries the bomb and plants A default.
Your assignment
Entry
Lead of the Main trio and bomb carrier. Swing through Outside on support's flash, meet the AWPer's cross on site, and plant A default. Support follows you out and trades.

Call off if the Ivy duo takes contact or loses a player before 0:50, or Ivy gets smoked off — IGL turns the Main trio back through T spawn and the round becomes a slow B look. IGL owns the call, deadline 0:50, no re-calls after utility is committed. Rotate math: with Connector and Popdog both smoked, a B-side CT can only reach A late through the smokes or the long way past CT spawn — where the AWPer and the Ivy smoke are waiting. Changed from the pro version: Aurora's group sizes and exact utility are read from the POV video; we fix a 3 Main / 2 Ivy shape and use our two archived Dumpster lineups so the smoke set is repeatable at our level.

A Execute — Outside A
A siteComplexity 3/3Coordinated 3–2 split to A site. Entry, support, and AWPer approach via Radio and Dumpster behind four smokes — jumpthrow Connector and stationary Popdog are the precision anchors. IGL times A Halls to cut the CT rotate while the lurker sits Z connector to freeze any B-side reinforcement.
- 02
A Pistol — Ivy
A siteComplexity 1/3Pistol round through Ivy as a five-man snake. Single file up Ivy at 1:40, one flash over the Ivy exit, then the whole team pours onto A from the CT-side door the defenders least expect on pistol. Support carries and plants; the post-plant collapses back to Ivy and popdog for close-range holds.
- 03
A Rush — Outside
A siteComplexity 1/3All five sprint Outside A on pistol round. Support stops at Dumpster to jumpthrow the Connector smoke, then two pop-flashes to blind the Ebox and Popdog holds. Entry and AWPer hit the site at full speed; IGL watches Popdog on entry; lurker plants A default the moment site is called clear.
- 04
B Contact — Upper Route
B siteComplexity 2/3Rifle contact hit on B through the upper/yard route — no pre-hit utility. Entry and support cross yard along the trains and drop into B; AWPer and IGL follow through Z connector as the second wave; lurker pins A with noise at popdog so the rotate hesitates. All nades stay pocketed for the post-plant.
- 05
B Execute — B Halls
B siteComplexity 2/3Four-man B Halls execute behind Z connector smoke, Bomb Car smoke, and a B Halls flash. Lurker pins the A side from the start to prevent a CT rush through halls or a fast rotate. IGL calls it from the halls stack and smokes Z connector to cut the rotate. Entry leads the breach, support throws the flash and trades, AWPer secures Yard post-clear.
