A raised structure on A with cylindrical containers out front, visible through an opening from A Belt. It is reached by rope, zipline or ascender, and it is a plant position, so callouts here warn the team of a nest push or a plant.

Playing it
Icebox A Site tips
- 01Hold A Belt or A Rafters early, because from there you can see most of the bombsite and call out pushes before they reach the plant.
- 02Rotate through mid into the A screens to skip most of the A elevations, and use that route when the belt and nest are locked down.
- 03Watch for zipline rushes at A Zip and nest pushes at A Nest, and use a utility or a cover player to slow them down before they reach the plant zone.
