Pearl B Site tips

1. 01Expect a defender camp in the B Main and B Ramp corner, and clear it with a grenade before stepping into the open.
2. 02Use B Tunnel as a split when you only have one smoke, so you are not forced to spend both smokes on B Main.
3. 03Smoke B Tower and clear B Hall before planting, and keep an eye on B Link since it is the defenders' safest retake route.
