Map control

The core loop is simple: control one power area, read spawns, then rotate for the next pickup.

Control cues

  • listen for spawn flips after two kills
  • anchor with one player while the second pushes
  • use grenades to force a re-route

Closing note

If you hold the map, the fights come to you. That is the whole game.
