Playing it

Ascent Mid tips

1. 01Take Mid Top and Catwalk early to control the A rotation, or you will get pinched mid-push.
2. 02Hold Mid Cubby from the flank to pick off players moving up toward Catwalk.
3. 03Move through Mid Market quickly as a B rotation path before the defenders can smoke it.
4. 04Keep Courtyard and Mid Link open as rotation routes so a mid split does not cut off one site.
